The globalisation of English
And their rapid advancement is due in part to people in China who decided that, hey, it might be a good idea to learn English so we can deal with these foreign devils and profit from it. What's your point?

The globalisation of English
No governments force their populations to learn English. At best, the population puts pressure on their governments to promote education in English because of the business prospects that come with the language. Care to cite any evidence as to why Chinese (Mandarin, I'm assuming) will become the world's major language in the next 75 years? I don't see the relevance of your last example. Care to elaborate? I don't seem to recall any mention in academic literature of any standardisation of currencies beyond individual territories, such as the regulatory measures imposed by the Venetian mint in the 13th-14th centuries.

This story I wrote....
We have a forum for this sort of thing. I've marked this post for a quick shunt over. Try to avoid using numerals in prose. Where possible, spell out the number.

The globalisation of English
Because, as we know, the growth of the telecommunication industry owes itself to countries that speak Spanish. And countries that speak Spanish are the most economically developed and militarily and diplomatically powerful nations in the world. Be serious. English isn't dominant because it's easy to learn. It's dominant because it's profitable to learn.

sleep,nightmaires, must read
I've had Lovecraftian nightmares before, but those are, by definition, undescribable. Also, why does the OP mark all his threads "must read"? Learn to play.

Atheist v. God (Real Life Essay)
Go on, then, point out to me where I attacked Christianity. Oh, wait. I didn't.

Atheist v. God (Real Life Essay)
Did you not read it? It basically amounted to an attack on atheism based on the unfounded assumption that all atheists worship Satan in order to spite Christians. None of his statements were backed by admissible evidence. It's a blatant criticism of people's beliefs simply because they are not Christian, and, by extension, is an attack on every other belief system in the world, not just atheism. It's a disgusting piece of hypocritical writing, claiming to be supportive of peace and tolerance while at the same time spreading lies and misinformation about those who do not share his beliefs. Anyone who can honestly say that they accept this travesty, this abortion of intelligence, as a sound argument for anything other than that all belief systems have their own intolerant, fundamentalist idiots seriously requires an overhaul of their cognitive centres.

Relaxation techniques
Well, that's the thing: there isn;t anything to support them against. perhaps I should "accidentally" shoot when I tremble and "accidentally" hit someone shooting next to me...Maybe then I'll get some supports. Ah. I was under the impression that air rifle shooting was the same setup as target shooting, where you lay on the ground.

Relaxation techniques
If your hands are shaking at an inopportune time such as when using projectile weapons, for the love of god find something to brace them against. Works for me, because sometimes I have that problem as well, like when I'm trying to play pool after a few hours at SCA.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
I started in late November, but I haven't been able to play much until last week, because work kept me busy. Now that we have a four week break, I can do other stuff, like ruin people's days and eat hope. I'm thinking of buying Burning Crusade when I'm about to reach 58.

Decent RTS games?
You also need a monster of a computer if you want big battles that don't turn into slide shows.

Atheist v. God (Real Life Essay)
That's not an essay, that's a letter. Also, provide citations for your claims. Hypocrisy is not spelt hypocracy. The neuter-gender possessive "its" does not have an apostrophe in it. An apostrophe should never be used to indicate a pluralisation. "'tis" is anachronistic language and should not be used in academic writing. Contracted words should be avoided in essays. Your use of the ellipsis is astonishingly inappropriate. The plural of "woman" is "women". Also, your argument fails on logic, and lacks evidence to support it.

Dawn of War series and Supreme Commander.

Do i have a right to attack someone breaking into my house?
Your best bet is to call the police, but be ready with the blunt instrument of your choice. Just remember that you can still be charged for assault even if it's in self-defence.
