BoneDog Posted 24 July 2009 Posted 24 July 2009 I especially like the fact you responded to him once, and then later on thought of a more sarcastic post so replied again. Brilliant. I didn't think of a sarcastic response, I came back in and read it again, saw I was called ignorant and added something else.
Daggers Posted 24 July 2009 Posted 24 July 2009 Really? What is to be scared about? I am in the minority after all Because ignorance like yours isn't confined to your crackpot notions about cover-ups. Whether it be your cover-up nonsense, TommyG's homophobia, Teeno's religious claptrap: you all get a vote, take part in surveys and parade your ignorance everywhere like a badge of pride. Your limited capacity doesn't prevent you from impacting society at large, that's what scares me. I see little difference in the ignorance which drives the notion men have not walked on the moon to the ignorance behind religious extreemism. You are all mentalists.

My Daughter came home from school one day last year and told me that the Americans didnt really land on the moon because her History teacher had told them this in their lesson that day. Turned out shes from the Czech Republic and spent the entire lesson telling her class how the Americans lie about everything and are a threat to Humanity etc etc... I personally dont really lose sleep over whether they did or didnt but really cant believe that its all a hoax. I was more angry that a Teacher was imposing her political beliefs on 14 year old kids when she was supposed to be teaching them History. I would have thought they were supposed to remain impartial.

I have never voted, so don't worry I won't mess up the election result!. What would be the point of electing a party on a false manifesto? Can you think of one example where a UK government has kept it's word on the pre-election manifesto? Cos I can't. Keep voting in good faith (and then carry on complaining afterwards that they are not serving you correctly)
Babylon Posted 24 July 2009 Posted 24 July 2009 Do you all really vote? you nutters! I honestly fear for your sanity and well being.
The Doctor Posted 24 July 2009 Posted 24 July 2009 Yeah cos the Russians and US leaders are really enemies aren't they!! They really nearly had a nuclear war in the 60's or 70's! HAIf you believe that these countries leaders are really enemies, then you are the fool. Check out the bulk of the evidence, Saudi, US, Russian and the list goes on, they all get together and have a great time laughing and joking. Not a theory, a fact. are you basing this on the family guy episode where peter forms his own nation and invites the the likes of castro, saddam and other leaders of countries round for a barbeque?
Jon the Hat Posted 24 July 2009 Posted 24 July 2009 are you basing this on the family guy episode where peter forms his own nation and invites the the likes of castro, saddam and other leaders of countries round for a barbeque? No he is basing it on the sound logic that despite power hungry people fighting each other at all levels of life, as if by magic when they get to the top they somehow become all nice a friendly with their rivals and are all chummy.

Yeah, Josef and JFK aren't really dead. They currently share a villa in Marbella where they are in a committed civil partnership. Not a theory, a fact.

I was more angry that a Teacher was imposing her political beliefs on 14 year old kids when she was supposed to be teaching them History. I would have thought they were supposed to remain impartial. That's actually quite worrying. Personally, I would have complained to the school as this teacher clearly does not know boundaries. Fair enough to teach students to be critical thinkers, but it's entirely different to indoctrinate her beliefs on the class. With regards to the moon landings, I've always been of the viewpoint that it should be taught in the same way as the great explorers of history. I had to learn about Columbus, Magellan, Cook at school. In my mind, Armstrong and Aldrin are no different to them and I would have liked to learn about them. For this teacher to call it a hoax and a lie is to p*ss on men who flew the mission in the knowledge they may die and leave their families fatherless.

Our leaders don't fight eachother! Surely you know that? They send us, the population, to war while they sit in their country houses having dinner parties, sipping wine and whatever else they do. Do you not see how for example Bush parties with the House of Saud? And how Clinto had the Taliban leaders round for tea?
BoneDog Posted 25 July 2009 Posted 25 July 2009 are you basing this on the family guy episode where peter forms his own nation and invites the the likes of castro, saddam and other leaders of countries round for a barbeque? never seen Family Guy, ever.
BoneDog Posted 25 July 2009 Posted 25 July 2009 1. I honestly fear for your sanity and 2. well being. 1. Well, don't worry yourself Captain, 2. Why what you planning?
BoneDog Posted 25 July 2009 Posted 25 July 2009 I honestly fear for your sanity and well being. just wondering, me saying that you are mad if you keep on voting in blind faith for people who, deep down, you know are liars and won't help you, why would that make you worry for my sanity? I worry for people like you if you can't see the obvious. It's staring you in the face man!
