I totally agree , and I am extremely proud,(though I don't think I am better than anyone else) . The thing is , I want my family to not have any problems . That is the main reason for this .

Not really , Anti-Semities mostly couldn't give a shit if you are of Jewish lineage and now for example a Protestant Christian or a religious Jew and a convert for example.They don't discriminate based on your religion , only on your ethnic background (even if it isn't your ethnic background but only your converted choice). Racial traits are not always incredibly obvious at first sight
It is a long thought out process as to whether I wear my Yarmulke in particular situations.(it's not that I need to wear it , but I like to , I am proud of who I am) Without it , I am your average Caucasian , as soon as I put the hat on I become recognisable as Jewish . Its a tough choice , do I hide who I am , even though it goes against my nature , just so I can smooth things out and avoid grief . Or do I wear it and face the possibility of losing a contract because someone thinks I am a "Yid " or a "kike" or whatever racist shit they have in their brain .
I know most people don't mind who you are , what colour skin or what ethnic background , but there are still some who do. You even see some of it on Slashdot in milder forms , (at the higher rated comments) . Loads of troll crap as well , but that does not really count .
To waste more karma (and correct that Would of / would have slip) That was not a troll , I was inquiring into how someone with a track record like this is able to keep his job in a very competitive environment .

A genuine question , perhaps asked a little abruptly .
Coming to think of a few people I know.. I would be more worried about Touching there R,O,P and N keys. Not worried about my keyboard though.. The amount of alcohol and coffee that have been spilled on it must make it fairly sterile
I should note in the example above that the consumption of Alcohol or any drugs is not a defence normally accepted as diminished responsibility , if entered into willingly . Also , under Scottish Law , Psychopathic personality disorder/Antisocial personality Disorder can not be used as a defence of Diminished responsibility due to the perpetrator having full cognitive capacities as to their actions
A person with the condition probably knows the difference between right and wrong.. they just don't have any of the normal feeling associated with them. They most likely know it is wrong to steal someone's possessions , beat the crap out of them for no reason , or on a rare occasion kill them.. they just don't care. So they can easily be convicted of crimes as they are fully in control of their actions and normally would be fully aware of the consequences . You can only be found to have a diminished responsibility if it can be proven that you had no control over your actions, or a lessened control over them to a significant extent.. For example, if you had your drink spiked with some concoction of drugs then went on to kill someone by running them over accidentally.Only if it can be shown that you had absolutely no idea of your current mental state . I believe in California USA they did away with the defence... so a person with the mental age of a 5 year old could be given the death penalty
Bell South have just Proven themselves to be a total bunch of useless bas[TT]ards . If we pay for an Internet connection , then it us using their lines to connect to someone.. what next charging someone for receiving a phone call . Hurn in Bell I say
Come to think of it.. Do you think that "Meeting related stress and depression" would get me off with diminished responsibility , if i perform a killing spree. If so , I am going to invite the marketing department on a hunting trip..A hunt for the ultimate Prey.. MAN
"Meetings are Bad For You" No shit.. having an informal conversation with someone from a marketing Department for 5 minutes is bad enough. Having to sit with them for an Hour as they drivel total Bullshit, is enough to give anyone a nervous breakdown
Safari block has been screwy with the latest version of Safari (2.0.3) , I had to remove it to get any sites to load.. perhaps that is just me . Cocoa gestures works fine , but I had to change the mouse button which initiated the gestures or I would loose contextual menus . I am yet to try FF for os X86 but I won't mind about the missing FF features , you can still hop over to safari when you need them

The only rules that apply to non Jew's throughout the Tanakh are the Noahidie laws
Avodah zarah - No idol worship / false gods (It is arguable as to what defines a false g-d.. or is it just the cultures interpretation of Adonai ) Shefichat damim - don't kill people (unless in self defence) Gezel - Do not steal Gilui arayot - No sexual immorality (defined by the culture if you go with Liberal/reform Judaism.. or fairly strict one husband one wife by Orthodox standards) Birkat Hashem -Don' blaspheme ( against your own beliefs or the beliefs of others) Ever min ha-chai - Do not munch down on a living animal Dinim - Be fair and just,have fair laws and a fair court . Interpretations vary
Apple was defiantly a low volume buyer but they were a big source of free marketing . Now with the recent upsurge in consumer products using the PPC chips IBM does not need apple as much and apple definitely does not need IBM , so all is well for both companies
