description: http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/meast/01/30/iraq.main/index.html Guess who's new national past time is 'Voting'... That's right, Iraq's. Look how happy they are. I think this is panning out to be some pretty well instilled democracy. Hell their turn out was higher than ours.

description: Their turn out is higher, but it will affect them more directly. Makes sense. That insurgent threat seems a bit immature to me. I didn't agree with attacking Iraq, but thats done and over with, and Iraq needs these elections now.

description: And we see solid proof that the Iraqis are happy with what we've done... we're NOT "occupiers". The insurgents were so against democracy that they were willing to kill Iraqis who wanted it. Could this be any better proof that we did the right thing? Could this be any better proof that it's not the Iraqis who are fighting back? Could this be any better proof of the huge progress going on in that nation?

Although we've been through that little discussion before. We'll see if the elections benefit Iraq soon, at the moment it's still all up in the air. But hey, can't blame them for trying - it's not like they can do anything else there with the Coalition getting them to vote.

description: On the one hand, what I said was an in-joke. On the other hand, he was telling people in the "Gay Bomb" thread that he'll be joining up with the military, far, far away from any action. So once again I say that he's got quite the attitude for all these soldiers in Iraq, risking their lives daily for whatever cause they're fighing for this time [having had WMDs, liberation, oil etc], but when he's asked, like many... "pro war kids" to go and put his own life on the line, it's "sure... as long as I'm at least 200 miles away from any fighting, anywhere". Not that what I say matters, not being American :rolleyes:

description: You should think serieous about these things if you want to join the army. I did that too before I dicided to go to the army, (not the american army!!!!! I'm dutch). I went to military testings one year ago, I didn't make it for the function I wanted to do. I was 16 at that time, and if I past the test. I had to wait untill the day I became 17 (I needed to be 17). I can do the tests again in about a month or so . I've been doing hell allot training. long distance running, weightraining, etc etc. 6 days a week. 1 day for resting and body "healing". I stopped computering because I dont have much time for it.

description: Funny thing that you should mention boats. I find it fascinating that people say Jesus was the son of God, since you know that Christianity was founded on a myth, right? As I'm sure you know that one Pope a while back killed an entire "race" of people who belived Jesus was a mortal, married father. Oh, and in case you think I'm just pandering to your call for blasphemy... Far as I can see, those two are true. I'll admit as of yet it's going on stuff I've read while on duty at school, so I can't paste links to it for your enjoyment, Give me a bit of time to research it, maybe I'll even post a thread on it. But I digress, since I can't miss a call to blashpheme. I'm not saying you shouldn't think seriously about the army. What I am saying is that Cowmisinformed tried to get out of his claim to join the army for reasons that were getting slowly and more slowly towards what I said. But if you end up in the army in 5 years, Cowmisfit, don't worry, you'll still get to see plenty of action in Iraq.

I said that im not sure if i would be able to be on the front line troops as in walking around all the time because of my knee being torn out of its socket 4 times already and the fact i can't do any running or anything for more than an hour and half or so before it starts to hurt like hell.

description: Why the fuck do you think that he needs to explain every intricate detail? Also, why the fuck must you always attack his intelligence? Is it because you don't have a point to make, so you use redderick to "burn" him? I figure that has to be it because you can't make any other fucking valid point.

description: First, he should at least explain detail that he used, not detail he inserts into something here and now to try and back up a point [Nice that he's started doing that.] Second, that's the first time I've directly insulted his intelligence, don't know where you got the "always" from. Thirdly, you're as guilty as anyone of simply attacking people without having a valid point. Lastly, since I don't know what "Redderick" means I'll assume you mean "Rhetoric". I didn't think my use of language was enough to give me an edge in battle... hmm. I'll have to use it more often.

Yes, I've used rhetoric without making a valid point, but that's usually rare. Oh no, I misspelled a word! Whatever shall I do? Now that you're going to *use* the English language in battle, don't think you'll be able to use it against me but once or twice.

I think it's very much a "vote now for democrazy or forever hold your peace". All credit to them, they did. 60% turnout or something? That's amazing, when the turnout for OUR General Election is predicted at less than 50%.

It means love your neigboors however if they do soemthing wrong, and commited a serious sin such as murder someone, or have gay sex with guys (aka if you've actually DONE this , you've condemed yourself to hell, sleep tight) then well, that term flys out the window as far as im concerned. Somone like yourself though would take that ot the limit and say something along the lines of i dunno "Lets hug our enemy that has killed thousands of people around the globe for years, lets try and be PEACEFUL, lets show them our SOFT SIDE, because you know what the bible says, "love thy neigbour" " killed 100,000 citiziens?? To save millions more yes. If you wern't such a fucktard and could relize the fact that the reason so many citizens in Iraq or Afgansitan for example have died is because the enemy IS IN THERE WITH THE INNOCENT, THEY PURPOULY GO TO PLACES WERE THEY KNOW IF WE ATTACK WE WILL KILL CITIZENS / PISS PEOPLE OFF SUCH AS MOSQ AND CITY NEIGBOOR HOODS.

Mabey in your little fantasy world were everyone follows the rules and people dont' die, but in reality we like to say if you are a bad person we don't have to love you. Aka it is conditional. If someone came in and raped / killed your entire family , lets say it was GMM taht did this since he can rape all of them, would you hate them??

Jesus wouldn't hate anyone regardless of their misdeeds. I find Jesus to be someone that I would like to be like, so I will do my best to act like him. ERrrrr, thats one i can't really say im against. YOu mean well, your just mis-guided in what ever far far far FAR FAR out tehre environment you've been raised in. Wow, i can't even fathem were crap like that comes from.

I said IM NOT RELIGIOUS AS IN I DON'T STUDY THE BIBLE I DON'T GO TO CHURCH HOWEVER I AM A CHIRSTIAN. ITS NOT THAT FUCKING HARD TO UNDERSTAND. Why would they burn in hell?? Well, i'd guess its because they are gay? they have sexual relations with that of the same sex, and it says in the bible thats a no no? Do you have a habit of selective ignorance? Just ignore my post and reply only to points you have no hope of understanding? Suppose it helps me, you've reinforced two of MY points: I Or are you just Christian when it suits?

Then you two can go to town without being bothered by any pesky topics of any importance. I think this is an awesome step though with the voting and all. I think we've shown them that voting isn't so bad. They can choose however they want without having their family killed during the night. Maybe we'll get some good word of mouth and other countries will want us to come install them with Digital Cable. I mean democracy. lol Also did anyone here about the Primeminister of Georgia? He was killed. Found gassed to death in a friends flat. Isn't that surprising? I wonder if they'll figure out if it was an accident or a more sinister act cause Georgia is another big topic when it comes to terrorism.

Exactly what does it mean to believe sincerely that Jesus is the Son of God, was sent here to die for our sins, rose from the dead, and ascended into Heaven again.? If you sincerely believe it, don't you think that you would follow all his other teachings regarding the way he has instructed you to live your life?

When Luther understood this, he felt "born again".. The Catholics of that era took it to one extreme, buying indulgences as repayment of their sins, sometimes even before they committed them.

If you confess your love to Jesus on Sunday, then spit on your neighbor on Monday, you're pretty much showing that what you did on Sunday had no true meaning. It's what's in your heart that matters, and if your heart is true, you wil…

Want in? And as long as your like "Thanks man I was so worried" They'll be like "No prob bra, happens all the time". And then you can live in peace and happiness forever. I just hope I would get extended the same curtousy if I get up there and it turns out God is a golf club. Now let me once again try to punt this on track. IRAQI ELECTIONS

I think this is panning out to be some pretty well instilled democracy. Hell their turn out was higher than ours.

"To know the good, is to do the good" -- Socrates. I would bet that God is a bit smarter than to accept mere profession to His son and His son's acts on earth. And I agree with you, many people today have bought into this false sense of security that God is some kind of simpleton (although God IS perfectly simple, but that is another debate) who will let you into the big Club Med in the sky with a fake I.D. However, J_ball isn't quite off his rocker on this one. Redemption in the traditional sense has escaladed from the Opus Dei and their corporal mortification to confession to an ordained priest who can magically make your sins disappear for 3 minutes of your time repeating X number of prayers that you may or may not even know the MEANING of. Which leads back to that quote... If you know what the good is, and in this sense I don't think you'll misinterpret it like many others on this forum, then you will do the good (That isn't to say that is what Socrates actually meant, but the quote is deliciously ambiguous that way). And when you are aware of the good, you will genuinely know the wrong of your past ways and will be able to be redeemed for it because you will genuinely be sorry. Which is all you need to do with God to be forgiven. It's not some funky rain dance or anything, it will be a fully ego-driven conscious effort to be sorry for a misdeed and you will be forgiven. Now ATONEMENT, that is a COMPLETELY different story.
