Marcello = religion is ALWAYS a con job, and a manifestation/cause of weakness and INABILITY to do anything to but pray.

No, no, and no.

The line between Religion and Superstition = blurred? Even though they are diametric opposites? See "praying to avert danger" etc. Also see Sean O'Casey's "Shadow Of A Gunman". Side thought. Apologies.

I don't believe that it is ALWAYS a con job; nor that it is always a con job. I don't agree but I'm at a loss to describe why my brain is betraying this thought.

Did someone just swallow my posts? I posted twice and they've been obliterated, anyway, jist:

I don't agree with you Sterling but I am at a loss to explain why exactly my brain is betraying this line of thought.

Also (side-thought, apologies) - the line between Religion and Superstition = blurred? Even though they are diametrically opposed? See = "praying to avert danger" etc. Also, see = "The Shadow of a Gunman" by Sean O'Casey.

Ahh, come on now, someone's messin' with ma head!

Clover, as usual you're talking crap. Read my original post again. If you truly believed that you wouldn't even be posting here as that rules out, amongst other things, music.

Do you have lots of fun laughing at the weak as a rule of thumb?

Only when they're batshit enough to post

Can you hand mummy the keyboard back, now? That's right. Nap time.

Blimey, is this the ILM equivalent of that Tyson Lewis press conference? Can I join in? I'd certainly like to lamp dave q for the 'group therapy' remark.

Poor old Johny Ray...

Listen to me, Q, you impudent, impenitent, improvident coxcomb, you sad-sack, vulgarian counterfeit. You're an ill-mannered, illiterate, ill-begotten forgery, you botch from the first, you byblow of a rutting ratcatcher who collected your mother's pelt with his cleft stick. You're a lickspittle, lacklustre, beetle-browed nonesuch, a buffoon hoisted on a stick, an ungnawed rib lacking in meat. I abhor your ilk. I defy you and your shallow tittle-tattle. I set my boot upon your stones.

My v.important thread seems to have got bogged down in internet mentalism.

Hold the front page.

Reality TV idea - 'Combat Group Therapy', where a bunch of genuine nutjobs are stuck in a room and told to 'confront' each other. Every time somebody has a breakdown (violence, tears etc.) they get 'evicted', presumably to a rubber room. The 'winner' (last one left relatively compos mentis) gets extra points if any of the losers are driven to murder or suicide.

dave q, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Err.. isn't this the Jerry Springer show?

N., Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

No, that was the 'Jenny Jones Show', where one of the guests shot the other, offstage unfortunately.

dave q, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Oh yeah - for making a gay pass at him. Nice that.

N., Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

If "violence" amounts to, say, turning an Uzi on all the other contestants and mowing them down, would they still get evicted?

Marcello Carlin, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Ban this sick death fantasy stunt!

N., Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

It's an URGENT AND KEY issue which has been thus far criminally omitted from the debate! If all other contestants were reduced to Uzi offal, the gunslinger would be the only one left, so were s/he to be evicted there would be no winner. Would they be entitled to request a rematch or would the sudden decline in ratings not justify said cool carnage? We, the people, need to know.

two years pass...
