Good advice Mr Lush!

More reasons to fear religion and those who seek to "protect" it

Blasphemy!

What do you expect from Irish Catholics? Lets not tar everyone with therame brush.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Did you miss a winky smiley there Keef?

Because those keraaaazzy English are at something dodgy as well

The Gays - How can we rid the world?

[Keef]

No I didn't, but I also never said that they were the only OTT loons out there.

My point was more to show up a stupid generalisation like

More reasons to fear religion and those who seek to "protect" it

Apologies to any "normal" Irish catholics out there.

I seem to remember a sage person counselling others not to hijack threads (woo or otherwise).

This one is about Alpha specifically. If you want a general slag off Christianity thread, start your own.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Be fair... This thread has long moved on from alpha to religiosity generally. I just went to the most recently live thread

but I'm happy to do as you say

[Keef]

Must be bloody great being so bloody self assured about everything in the world and universe, and laughing at the naive.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Nothing naive or lacking in self-assuredness about the people who run these courses Keef - don't have a go at me

If people are lacking in confidence and are a bit naive, surely they should be protected from shysters and hucksters ? No? Ok then....

And two bloodys???

[Keef]

I thought we weren't talking about the course anymore? I'll bow out, as too often recently's I am wanting to argue with people in a really big way, that I don't really want to argue with at all.
