For a bloke of 60+ you sure are juvenile! You’re getting as bad as Mr Valvegate.
I like to think it's a moon that makes people see the good in life, tax. And recognise that most people around the world are decent, however curmudgeonly you may be, no matter their religion.Quote:

Oi tax. Eid Al fitr is celebrated by Moslem's worldwide because it Mark's the end of the Month long fasting of dawn to dusk ( sawm) of Ramadam it begins at sunset at the first sighting of the Crescent moon. That is how they roll Tax. Glad this ole ditch digger could educate you? Make you slightly less ignorant?.Quote:

im not in the least bit interested in the fairy tale beliefs of those dumb enough to follow them. not only muslims, although they are the worst of the lot thanks to their desire for submission, misogyny and domination. the others have all had their bad periods, but have matured somewhat and have come to terms with modern times, something that cannot be said for islam.
brainwashed from birth, their lives ruled by the controlling make believe peddled by blinkered priests and shamans. its insane.
Would you have me believe in an immaculate conception? Point is tax, they believe what THEY believe and Christians etc believe what they believe. Doesn't make either right. Anyway it will soon be Easter to mark the resurrection of jesus after his death 3 days after crucifixion but now . Already tesco is full of chocolate eggs. Go figure.Quote:

but as i said, people are brainwashed from birth, their lives ruled by the controlling make believe peddled by blinkered priests and shamans. its insane. heaven, hell, rebirth and afterlife, 24 virgins, praying 4 times a day, fasting, oppression of women, dont eat pork, eat fish on fridays.
how can people fall for such nonsense in the 21st century.
I've got 6 bags of Mini Eggs in the fridge.
the fiery furnaces of hell await thee.Quote:
