Hi Non
Sorry I missed class... was in the principals officeblushing laugh laugh thumbs up hug
Redex, Yes a very good example.
And one I have seen in many good people.
"The little twist of someone else" is what I have come to recognise and call it. I know it exists in me too but to what level I often wonder will I ever know. I keep a constant vigil for it. In the hopes I can tame it a little wave

Non, my good friend. While I can't watch the video, my connection is poor at the moment, but I gather from all the comments that it is brutal for the insistence of what is true or not.

Looking at your comment on the freedom of expression for standing on what you believe in, is BS, no such thing at all in many places and time.

is it ok to to sacrifice one to ensure peace for the many.
Ignorance is bliss after all. !! what you believe in, is to me alone


And on the one note, A HOT BLOG GOES POFF (happened to me, in spite of the intellectual and full of sentiment participation of so many, now I don't regret, at all, no, for the most part, it shows that, in fact, there is no freedom of expression, albeit very diplomatic and very professional)

So here is my take: BE CAREFUL ON WHAT WE WRITE, OR HOW WE CLAIM OUT OUR THOUGHT BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUCH FREEDOM AS I JUST OBSERVE HERE SPECIALLY. People is vanished, bullied and even mutilated for expressing what they think...

You are great my friend...

63 years ago I heard a Roman Catholic priest say the wrong thing in a catechism class. I corrected him and I was chewed out in front of the class.

The priests response was, "Don't question. Just believe"! Hee Hee. That was the last of Roman Catholicism for me!
@ Non doh confused I think the principal brain washed me laugh blushing laugh hug
wave @RapC: huh! Where did he wash you at??
@ angel laugh my brain angel rolling on the floor laughinglaugh wink bouquet
laugh Rapc: hehe! Oh. . . . rolling on the floor laughing
Non,
i see, You're just saying that because the big man made you say that... and 2+2=4. not 5. scold

Freedom, liberty? Where?... just obey...consent...consume, and stand still in place until told it is time to go home. or you can change it... repeat after me: : 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4, 2+2=4. everyday !

stay sane ! cheers wave
FREEDOM clipped and manipulation of our mind at its best..

I would rather be dead fighting Non..until I bleed no more..

That brave kid is my hero. Non, count me in..
Angel,
Rain drops keep falling on my head dancing
Ed,
Good to see you. handshake
Yes "Don't question. Just believe"! I got that a lot in school.
Being Irish Its near part of the education culture. But it seems to be changing wave
RC,
Dont pay any attention to him bouquet I know you are a good girl wink
Butterflies,
You sure do good rithmetic. Do you give classes cheers
Bogart my friend,
I am afraid that the illusion of going home was lost to me a long time ago. As for changing the world. Let us worry about attitudes and examples and change will simply happen. wine handshake
LJ so glad you got to see the Video. thumbs up
I will keep forever tucked in my heart my dear. This representation of battle between good and evil is the prevalent mood of human, regardless of time and place, at least on this universe.

It is a very unforgiving and corrupting world we live in..My friend..we should educate the world..But then at who's desire would it benefit? When look at that, only one kept the truth and the rest were self preserving weak? And afraid? What a world my dear..

A very eye opening video for what it serves is timeless..
I Agree LJ
Yes but in the end we see the seed of truth re-emerge.
a pencil scribbles out 5 and writes 4 thumbs up

This is the essence of revolution. conversing
of course my friend..The stern and unflinching claw of truth..To die for..I would.,.
Lol @ dedo rolling on the floor laughing thumbs up
wave hi non that was me doing the scribblegrin many do that now very good blog might I sayteddybear A bit of fun, and bit of serious too teddybear
Ohhhhh smarty , you got it all wrong. I'm the last person on the planet that puts religion on the line , and I'm defenetly not razist.

I try to make you understand what I am saying through the screen:

I am Atheist but I respect all religions. Regarding Muslim its cause the video its in Persian ( Iranian ) my native country that I left when I was SIX years old ( so if you had put a bullet in my head I wouldn't know that I was in Iran ).

Now pls try to understand between the lines........... being grewn up in Italy ( Europe ) my culture is European , So wat I said its against my country that its all about religion and ( mollah ) , That I am NOT one of them.

So sarcastkly I just point out how Muslim think in life, now obviously we have good and bad every where. If its wasn't so it was not called earth.

If I disappointed you in anyway it wasn't AT ALL ment to be.

I do apologize sad flower
Redex,
Thank you for your input and so glad you enjoyed it.
wave
So non, what if we reverse the scenario what do you think?
Alex,
thanks for your opinions and input too. thumbs up
LJ,
I tried to cover that in a post to LOULOU on page one.
Where I said

"Yes We all have to share the world.
And the freedom to believe 2+2 = 5 is as important as accepting that it really is 4"

Note the emphasis in the statement should be put on the words believe and really.
I am a little confused Non, but given my situations lately I believe I would be in it for a while. My point was, what if the boy who is undaunted with his fight for truth, would have power and eliminated all that was obviously live in distortion..

My point being is, then it would be paradise, ain't it? THE very core of ATLAS SHRUGGED, but this is another blog one day..NO USERS, NO TAKERS FOR FREE, BUT truth remains as the core of everyone's character...JOHN GALT.

Thanks..
all of us here have different belief, coming from different countries with different cultures...
So pls keep in mind that we are all friends and no need to try to show off here if you disagree something related to sensitive things.

i am sure if someone tell something even little bit bad about their religion or even God, I am sure they will upset...

I am fanatic but I am not radical...

so, nothing to be apologized I took it as misunderstanding due to wrong interpretation..


peace peace peace peace peace peace peace peace peace
Smart
That is a very nice attitude to have.
I think we could all learn a lesson from you. handshake cheers
Bspoken4,
I love it laugh
It works on so many levels with the theme of the blog. thumbs up
I believe simply put non, 2 plus 2 equals four...UNLESS THERE ARE TWO WOMEN PLUS TWO MORE WOMEN AND ONE IS PREGNANT...rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

But for the video, when we become robot and have it programmed as such then the rule change...for right now on this video, it is what it is..A boy who stood for his belief of what is the truth died for it...end of story..I would propose all of us to take that route, yet fight for it...not to accept it..

please don't get mad at me for my passion Non...
