Vocal slashdotters are just that vocal. Religious fundamentalist tend to be a touch more aggressive. And I don't believe slashdot goes out of it's way to pick on Christians rather it seems to me every once in a while some small group will do something that renders the larger group ignorant mean and aggressive.
...riiiight..... When slashdotters say a higher power told them slashdot is the way and condemn everyone else that doesn't convert immediately to linux not only will you be damned in this life to deal with viruses and worms and sores, you will spend the rest of eternity there thinking about what you did wrong then maybe your comment will make sense. Until then slashdot has nothing on the good book beaters.
My dad is an Episcopal priest. I understand the comings and goings and the born into's. It is still a choice to remain active in the church after you discover the outside world.
It's interesting. Do they realize on their death bed, they were actually raging assholes to their fellow man and are afraid of the wrath of their god on the other side?
EXACTLY! It was probably fear that lead them to the church in the first place. Then they surround themselves with like minded people and yell at the rest of the world for how evil they are(really there just mad everyone else doesn't have the same irrational fears of the natural world.) and have nice fantasies of the rest of the world rotting in hell. Then on their deathbed they wonder... "Is god gonna like those fantasies of all those people burning and being tortured because that's about as much as I thought about my entire life...All I ever wanted was for OTHER people to die and goto hell".
Send up seawater. Don't think there's gonna be a shortage of that in many million years. Hell, everyone keeps complaining about Venice slowly sinking into the rising ocean.
Yea and the huge flood that global warming is sure to incur. It might be a good idea to start bailing the water out now.
A little OT but I wonder if this came about during the same brainstorming session that is trying to figure out how to accidentally push space junk into China's upcoming space stations.
Around some parts, the word "patriot" is synonymous with "racist",
I'm pretty sure that means WHITE AMERICAN blue collar worker.
Some countries are actually proud of other things than just owning the most guns.
I'm also pretty sure that's reinforcement. I could have said bigot but the above poster concluded in America patriot=racist so I was just making it clear that he was exhibiting some traits of a racism himself.
We don't need to get rid of the US, that is a tad unkind, all we have to do is enlighten them. The solution is simple increase the maximum tax rate to 80% and all the selfish pricks will leave, normal people with take over, arms will be turned into plow shears (health care and welfare) and it will be jobs done ready to serve.
I think they will just stick their money in offshore accounts and continue to rip the rest of us off like they do now...
are painful. It took me 3 days to download unreal III during the free weekend and cut off very shortly after i got it downloaded because steam didn't have the servers/bandwidth. I would rather stand online all night for a midnight release then babysit a download from steam for 3 days again.
And I doubt there will ever be a day when you don't think your better then me and shouldn't have more of a say in the system.
Sorry if this came out as flame bait I meant this in a much more general sense than as a direct reply to the poster above. people don't share power nicely is more what I was getting at.
people pick fights. people will continue to pick fights because they live in a desert with only one natural resource and could not figure out how to crawl out except to take over a plane with a boxcutter. As long as america is ripe with bounty from the mountains, to the prairies,
to the oceans, white with foam we will be in a perennial "last war" because whether you want it to be that way or not people are angry jealous bitter creatures. So whether its their desert there angry about or their tundra people are going to be jealous of america or whatever superpower comes next....
bush seeded Katrina to raise oil prices after he and his co pilot were already comfortably established in Iraq because bush had the Taliban take down the twin towers and the high gas prices would also strangulate many small businesses thereby causing an influx in military enlistment to further his war on fuel.
I know flamebait... but just imagine it kinda makes sense doesn't it?
The main difference between terrorists and the U.S. military is terrorists fight smart (and dirty). A thousand uniformed men with M4 rifles are nothing compared to a dozen plain-looking civilians with a big holy chip on their shoulder.
lol how about we arm all the construction workers in the US out of jobs right now with big economic chips on there shoulders and we play by the same rules? I wish someone would organize those folks the way the Taliban is organized. Fuck em why cant we have our own terrorist. I'd play dirty in a heartbeat.
Around some parts, the word "patriot" is synonymous with "racist". Some countries are actually proud of other things than just owning the most guns.
yea thats what the US is all about. we haven't contributed any technologies to the world, agriculture, charity. We all just sit at home cleaning our guns looking at our sisters funny. You sir sound like a racist that has America pinned.
And people wonder why I think the best way to secure peace is to get rid of the US...
you mother fucking idiot. There has been war for thousands of years and will continue to be as long as there are haves and have nots. You think erasing the flash in history that is the U.S. is gonna fix the world? those mother fuckers with glass parking lots have been throwing rocks a lot longer then we have been dropping bombs....
In the current global climate, there's no point in having nuclear missiles. Those who could strike us are no longer interested and are now allies and those who are hostile and nuclear capable can't reach us.
yes i think at this point i would rather have that. I have been trying to install unreal 3 which is free this weekend and steam just does not have the server support. I need to spam install for a few minutes of download eachtime. I started it last night and woke up this morning to it not doing anything at 25percent weee. might as well grab a torrent.

its all that damn wow and the stroking of epeens that go on in azeroth.
Agriculture refers to the production of food and goods through farming and forestry.
We don't share?
I cant wait for my iphone to finally match my true personality...scarred and disfigured. Color cases just were never edgy enough for me...
Are you telling me game designers don't pull their inspiration out of thin air?

go with him and get some lubrication for your asshole.

...yet...
rojo sombrero has been working nicely for me
waste of time. ps3 was made for running 360 games. you need to make a 360 emulator for linux for ps3.
yes i think at this point i would rather have that. I have been trying to install unreal 3 which is free this weekend and steam just does not have the server support. I need to spam install for a few minutes of download eachtime. I started it last night and woke up this morning to it not doing anything at 25percent weee. might as well grab a torrent.
