He believes covid19 is a hoax, while at the same time being a bio-weapon. That vaccinations don't work because he didn't take one and then caught the fake disease anyway, so that proves it? He thinks BLM and Antifa are in a conspiracy against him personally and gave him a disease that doesn't exits because lying doctor say it does, presumably by black magic and his recovering is proof of god's power. Oh yes and of course demonocrats are responsible for all of it anyway, BLM, Antifa, covid, vacination and anti-vaxxers, black magic, bio-weapons and hoaxes, flat earthers, round earthers, evilution lies, January 6th, the tooth fairy, the last three star wars movies, Eric Trump and vegan bacon!!!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOHMg7IkzHU

LenHazell53 comments on Jan 18, 2022:

Schools are supposed to impart knowledge, other than the knowledge that religion exists and did so in the past, which could be covered in the study of history and literature, there is in my opinion no place for religion in schools. Furthermore given the "bloody" history of religion the moral well being of general scholars under the age of 16 could only be improved by that omission from the basic curriculum. I am reminded of a story related by Bertrand Russell of a letter written to him by a student who requested the opinion of the noted polymath on an offer of a research fellowship the corespondent had received to study theology at Trinity college Cambridge, Rusell being an alumnus of the said college. Russell wrote back that he had no opinion on the matter whatsoever as he was not even sure that Theology was an actual academic subject, and unless the young chap was going to research that question his time would be better spent elsewhere doing literally anything else.

Well fine, let them sit in their seats as the plane plunges to a firey death. Though some people might break a leg or wrist because they haven't bee trained in parachuting, chances are they won't die from doing the sensible thing and getting of the damned plane. To be honest I thought Australians had a bit more sense than this, but stupidity does not recognize borders.

Title song from the 1979 Monty Python's The Life of Brian, sung by Sonia Jones who was just 16 then.

LenHazell53 comments on Jan 16, 2022:

In the script book of the Life of Brian, which doubles as a scrap book of behind the scenes stories and trivia, Eric Idle tells the story of he and Michael Palin discussing the most inappropriate theme song for their film (Still at that time entitled "Jesus Christ Lust for Glory") and Palin drunkenly suggesting getting Tom Jones or Shirley Bassey to parody a bond theme and set about writing the lyrics. Months later when the backers of the film had pulled out George Harrison stepped and formed Handmade films to save the film any question of hiring A big name singer for the titles was lost as the budget had been cut my almost 70 percent. George however on hearing the plan remember talk of a young backing singer who did a mean Shirley Bassey impersonation and managed to track her down. This was fifteen year old Sonia Jones, who was offered standard rates to sing the theme. On hearing her performance both Idle and Harrison offered to double her fee, without knowing the other had done so, neither retracted the offer when they did find out so she was effectively paid three times and deserved every penny of it.

Not without a total paradime shift away from the social model by which the western world has been molded for thousands of years once the first city states were established a social classes or caste systems were implement as methods of control and exploitation. That is to say away from basing the worth of the individual being based upon what they have, rather than what they can contribute. A society based around productivity for the over all good rather than on profit for the elite, for a general rise in well being, rather than an aspiration for personal advancement and superiority in the pecking order. A return to a type of society practiced in tribal communities, where the members of the group all contribute a skill, talent or craft to everyone else for the common good without ambition of greed, but instead a commune based on mutual altruism. Of course today in a capitalist society, such ideas are demonised by the ruling elite who see them as a threat to their position and power as "Socialism" "Communism" and "Dangerous" because without poverty and desperation people cannot be controlled by fear.

What Is 'Love Bombing'?

LenHazell53 comments on Jan 11, 2022:

I've never heard the term used in this context, However when I was a Mormon stake missionary we were trained in the technique of Love bombing. It is a method of preventing a possible apostate and of persuading doubting investigators to go that one last step and be baptised. It begins with friend shipping, that is that the attentive missionaries who have been giving lessons introduce the investigator to an active Mormon family, one or more of whom share an interest with the investigator. There will be a period of the said family inviting the investigator to their home, and visiting him or her in their own home. This will be followed up with introductions to other members all of who will make the Investigator feel welcome and part of a community, until the at last succumb and agree to joint the church and be baptised, after which the love bombing trails off until unless there is a genuine friendship it stops all together. Single men are treated even more viciously and will be introduced to every single women in the ward or stake in search of a temple worthy priesthood holding husband, some times even to the point of marriage. Not surprising as it is an integral part of Mormon life that the only way to get in to heaven is to be married and be actively producing lots of little Mormons. Love Bombing potential apostates pretty much follows the same pattern , only with every on reminding the subject just how super dupper great it is to be one of Gods chosen. Again especially so when the apostate is married and the other partner is not sure about leaving, they will actively try and break up the marriage in order not to lose both members, and will try to marry off the remainer to another active single Mormon, or try and blackmail the leaver in to staying so that they don't also lose their spouse, home and community. It is a filthy way of behaving but that is Mormons for you.

I loved his performance in "Escape from New York" as prison governor Bob Hauk. John Carpenter cast in him in the hope of persuading Clint Eastwood to play Snake Pliskin and Eli Wallach as Cabby reuniting the three stars of The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. Unfortunately Eastwood was unavailable and Wallach was out of the country so Kurt Russell and Ernest Borgnine stepped in to the roles. Van Cleef however stole the film out from under everyone (with the possible exceptions of Donald Pleasence and Frank Doubleday) giving perhaps the greatest performance of his later years before sadly passing at only 64 years old.

Accents for the most part are based around the pronunciation of vowel sounds, the preferred amount of syllables in sentence structure and the cadences. BBC English for example uses very round vowel sounds, clipped consonants, a sentence structure with five (or multiples of five) syllables per sentence and a cadence with a rising and falling structure with the highest stress on the subject of the sentence, then a firm stop eg. "A *very* **good** ***MORNING*** *to* you ***Sir*** (breath)" Scots accent very much follow the English patten only with more breathy vowels, except for the Glasgow accent (And strangely Belfast) which is very hard, sharp cadences and favouring a four or multiples of four syllable sentence structure with suplimentary loud verbal punctuation at the begining of dialouge. EG "(***OH***) ***y' bloody well*** *Think so* **DO YE?** Southern Irish has a more lyrical cadence (often ending in a question like rise) softer stretched vowel sound often extended out to two beats and a six syllable sentence structure. eg "***(Ahh)*** *T'is yourself* ***is it not?*** Most european languages tend toward a harder vowel sound, sibilant consonants, a sentence structure with three (or multiples of three) syllables. Their cadence favours stress on the verb and the pronoun with the sentence ending with an unstressed explanatory noise or confirmation word. eg French "***I*** **blow** ***MY*** *noze at you* ***YOU*** **son of a ssilly person*** phuh*" German " ***I*** **did not** *mention* *zer vor* (Huh) " Dialect on the other hand is based around specifically local words within a given country or community The Australian "Dag"(idiot), the Celtic "Wee" (small) and the Northern English "Hoy'as ow'r" (throw to me over here) are examples

Okay I have scanned through your replies here to other posters and basically you are revamping the old "There can be no morality without god" argument, just substituting Morality for rationality. This argument proceeds from a presupposition that because there is a god and all things come from god as detailed in the bible Science, rationality, morality come from god. Unfortunately there is no way to carry out a double blind test on this hypothesis because if you are proceed from the position that god exists, there is no way to know what reality would be like without god. However if God does not exist, and there is no way to prove he/she/it does, because by definition of the theological premise that faith is the only way to know god exist, and by definition faith REQUIRES that there be no proof, as proof replaces faith with Empirical fact and if god is an empirical fact then he/she/it is no longer a god, just a fact of material nature claiming to be a god. The very nature of a god(s) in the sense of all the major religions is self contradictory on EVERY level, take a moment to think of any defining characteristic of god(s) and the very existence of said god contradicts the said god philosophically, scientifically and theologically. Take for example the idea that god is the creator of the universe, because Everything that begins to exist has a cause because something cannot come from nothing. The universe began to exist. Therefore, the universe has a cause and that cause is god it's creator. However if that same argument is applied to god itself, then god too must have a cause and cannot be something from nothing. If we accept that god is from outside of reality and has always existed, then that sets a precedent that denies the first point in the above creationist argument and has to allow that the universe too can have always existed without a creator and may itself actually be like unto a god.

@Madisonian You might want to read this before "daring to be a Daniel" A church leader had his buttocks mauled by a lion after running towards a pride in a bid to prove the 'Lord's power '. Alec Ndiwane, a Zion Christian Church prophet, was attacked on a safari while trying to show that God would save him in front of fellow church members. He is said to have fallen into a trance and started speaking in tongues before charging at a pride of lions feeding on an impala in South Africa's Kruger National Park. But as Mr Ndiwane sprinted towards them, the lions immediately viewed him as prey and zeroed in. Realising the Lord wasn't about to help, Mr Ndiwane fled back to the car, but not before one of the lions clamped down on his buttocks. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3487255/Christian-prophet-buttocks-mauled-lion-running-pride-prove-Lord-s-power-animals-South-Africa-safari.html

Is anyone else in this group a caregiver?

I have been my wife's primary care giver for 12 years and secondary care giver for my late father in law and my mother in law. It is not easy, but you can learn to adapt to it.

What happened to the Jan. 6 Capitol rioters who went viral?

LenHazell53 comments on Jan 5, 2022:

A lot of them (71) have been arrested and charged some have gone to jail (between 60 days and 8 years), others have been fined or give community service in exchange for giving names of the people in the Senate who passed them information or in some cases took them on advanced tours of the capitol building so they would know where they were going on the day. https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=capitol+rioters+sentences=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

RECIDIVISM .

LenHazell53 comments on Jan 5, 2022:

It is one of the prime arguments for the death penalty that the rate of recidivism for convicted killers in states with the death penalty is practically zero. Unless of course they execute the wrong person, but how often does that happen? Oh, yeah... well how often does that happen to none black people in the USA? Oh yeah right... forget I spoke.

Actually I would simply argue that the act of being atheist does not merit their worthless floccinauci***nihili***pilification *floccinaucinihilipilification'* “The action of malignly estimating some thing, some action or some state of existence as being worthless" ;)

Originally a Quijote was a piece of Spanish thigh Armour, Cervantes used the epithet as a pun clown name much as Shakespeare named his two aging Knights in "12th Night" Sir Toby Belch and Sir Andrew Aguecheek (Sir Face-ache and Sir Burp in modern English) Perhaps today Quixote might have been called Sir Thigh-Slapper.
