  1. At your age, yeah...it really is. If you were say...20-25 AT LEAST, that wouldn't change things. But at your age, it's a terrible idea.
  2. You can't go wrong with arch support - as its good to have even with healthy feet. If it bugs you, see a doctor.
  3. To be fair, it's not Muslims making that list :lol:
  4. its ironic because the rally is led by the very kind of person who qualifies as a moron. Also, smaller government is not necessarily good. In nearly all conceivable cases small government allowing private industry to fulfill the public's needs is more economically efficient then a large government. For proof, just look at what has happened to Europe. *points to Canada* Did pretty well recession-wise didn't we, and we're socialists by GB's standards.
  5. Please, show me where I said all muslims are extremists and it represents them as a whole. What I said was; priests who are pedophiles are alienated from the church community because they explicitly have broken the rules of the church in this regard. Radical Muslims are not alienated or refused service. Once again, this ties in with my original point - this mosque will not exclusively serve those muslims(the huge majority) who are normal and not radical. It will serve the radicals as well, and therein lies the offensiveness. I didn't say you, did I? Also, did those pedo preists really get alienated? I remember seeing this awhile ago, the priests just got moved to different parishes. Well yeah, they did end up doing coverups and such. One of the reasons I'm not Catholic anymore ;) But in general, they've been at least defrocked(should be criminally charged, although that doesn't happen quite as often). @Nenga: No, obviously I can't tell. The thing is, it's made quite clear by the church that pedophile priests are not welcome. That same distinction has not been made by the muslim community as a whole (although some smaller councils have done so). I'm in favour of this mosque being built - all I'm trying to say is that I can sympathize with those who find it offensive.
  6. You'll never reach a general consensus from that question; it's just personal preference.

  8. Source? But yeah, Glen Beck is pretty ridiculous.
  9. Out of pure curiosity, how much of the Qu'ran and the books of the Old Testament have you read to intellectually state this? I agree but then again the Qu'ran is shorter, written differently, uses a later developed understand of God ("NT" God understanding vs. "OT" God) and has a few instances of aggression. I'm just curious to see if you thought that out or just felt like making a statement based on nothing. I won't claim to have read more than a few books of the bible, and probably no more than a few pages of the Qu'ran. Would you like me to start searching through the texts and start posting violent passages? My point is that neither book is exempt from violent referrals and instances, of which I think you'll agree. ---------------- There have been many incidents of church sponsored violence in the past - however in the present this is not the case. In terms of the remarks about pedophile priests - these people are rogues, who are not sponsored by the church as a whole. I challenge you to find any member of the church who will say that their actions are justified. I do agree that the manner in which some cases are largely ignored is unacceptable - but it's not the same thing as sponsoring those actions as part of your religion.
  10. To be honest, the old testament has as many if not more incidents of violence than the Quran does. The main issue here is not law based - by all legal and moral means any faith community should be able to build their mosque, church, community centre or whatever, wherever they have legally purchased property. Unfortunately, Muslims are stereotyped by a small number who do live with violence and who are murderers and terrorists. Will this mosque refuse to allow entry to Islamic radicals and jihadists? I doubt it. Will they refuse financing from these same people? I doubt it. Herein is where the insult to the memories of those who perished in 911 lies. Some may say, there are just as many radical Christians, radical jews, etc, etc who also turn to violence. I don't agree that there is the same percentile as seen in the muslim faith, however that doesn't change the fact that both are a tiny minority. However - looking at least in the catholic religion, the very doctrine of the faith is anti-violence. A terrorist who performs a terrorist act in the name of Christianity has committed a mortal sin and thus is destined for hell according to the teachings of the faith. That's the difference - at no point does any catholic organization condone or accept violence. To say the same of Islam is frankly a lie. That said, the first amendment is clear here. The mosque should be built. EDIT: I've realized I'm being rather ambiguous in my use of christianity and catholicism - certainly there are christain sects (Westboro for instance) whose radical views are unacceptable.
  11. Good job 'the'. Didn't expect exo to end that fast though :?
  12. Seems like most of the people are asking for RS pre-2007. It'll never happen but in many ways it was better then. I used to think that Jagex should make more of an effort to support clans, yet everything they've done has ended up turning on forum-based clans so far, as they've preferred to mostly provide features that help RSB clans. At any rate, the memberlist idea is nice. I don't see many clans using a forum hosting feature(besides RSB ones).
  13. Unless you plan to look after the kid, dont do it. It's a dog move. @Omnomnomar, that would be my name. yeah...I can get along with the kid in a dating scenario, if it came to it, I could look after the kid too, but I don't feel like that would come up immediately either way. But now that i think about it, between work, school, and a child, I'm not sure if she even has time to date. But i'd still like to give it a go - so keep the advice/comments coming. Bad idea...I'm sure she's not ready for a kid at her age, and neither are you. If you start dating, you can become a caregiver pretty quickly. Bad idea.
  14. Whose mom does that? Seriously :? Anyway, I wouldn't do anything - once she's completely aware of the situation she should be able to deny him properly. If he "forces" something on her, that's sexual assault. Nothing you can really do other than that.
  15. Well, I'm sure DK 11 will be back at some point...have they seriously closed and reopened that many times? :? Ps. 7777 posts :lol:
  16. I personally think in English. I assume most people think in whatever their mother tongue is, or in whatever they're using at the current moment.
  17. You are really hard to please I have high standards for the crap I have to use on a daily basis. Teamspeak 3 prompting me to update when there is no update, never recognizing my microphone unless I disable and enable input devices, random times when sound no longer works, permission bugs... Yeah, I think I'm okay with being 'hard to please' :P Yeah, I've noticed it not recognizing my mic and it not remembering my chat hot key. Still, it is a beta version.
  18. Rachel McAdams for sure :thumbup:
  19. Real pros bind in mage gear :P But for those who like naked binding, looks like that could be advantageous.
  20. Physical beauty isn't all of the equation - in looks alone megan is up there. However, general consensus is she's a terrible actress and a stuck up [bleep]. Kind of brings her down a a little...
  21. Looks somewhat like courney cox to me..
  22. :thumbsup: And nty to Misa.
  23. Well I had a big post written up, but then the forums went down so.... Basically, the top clans need to learn to actually get out and recruit; they've based their recruiting techniques on basically sitting back and waiting for people to come to them. Now that Jagex has improved their support for RSB clans - top clans need to get off their ass and actually recruit, otherwise they'll suffer the consequences.
  24. Good to see all of them, especially excited about the TS servers :)
