    Flag Burning

    It's opinion which may not be the same as your opinion but which is just as valid. It not a question of getting over anything, otherwise what is the point of discussion. Aqua Blue asked the question, without at first giving his opinion, so he obviously wanted a reaction to the question. A...

    Flag Burning

    If some nutter or group of nutters in a foreign land want to burn a British flag then there is not much we can do, other than not give it to much news coverage. If the person or persons setting fire to the flag are British subjects then I guess they have the right to protest. If they are...

    When minority groups burn our flag and the indigenous population have to stand by watching this exercise in personal freedom take place and be told 'It's a flag. Get over it'. That’s when I want to rip their heads off.

    Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion

    Madame Bovary should never have published. I haven't read the book my self but this Amazon review suggests how tedious it is: You can take that how you want to, but since it is one of your three favourite books you may want to disagree. This is how you defended your comments about your...

    Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion

    Why can't there be more? True. I have the paperback, in a small pile of to read books. I did watch two long interviews with RD last year when he was doing the rounds for his hardback launch so I do have a good idea what the book is about. Much the same as Dan Brown. .............and you are...

    Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion

    Quotation marks can indicate or call attention to ironic or apologetic words. No not quite right away. I want to see how Lost ends first. :) Are we only here until a meteor has a lucky strike and destroys the earth and that is mankind gone for ever. Why should we try and keep mankind alive...

    Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion

    Your argument is typical of many, including I would guess 'Richard Dawkins', although I have not got round to reading the The God Delusion yet. You associate fundamentalist, religion and God always in the same breath. Where in my comment did I use the word religion? Also, since you...

    Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion

    There is more than just this because there can't not be. If we are here by accident and not design then mankind would be better off ending it all now and not trying to preserve the result of a freak accident. :)
