I can't argue with you there Charlie. If someone is seriously messed up they need some attention right away. I guess what I had in mind are the legions of long term whingers that keep the therapy racket going. People who have little to complain about because their life is fine so they play the victim and get great comfort from that.
Well then your ma chose to give up her job, she wasn't forced to do so. It was only government or maybe church paid employees that were affected by the marriage ban. I know Feminists like to claim it was them that had it removed but it was in fact mostly conservative traditional women in the ICA and teachers who got it removed.
But does going back to the 1970's to look for a justification for the abuses of Feminism today not seem a little 'stuck'? The Catholics who were denied housing and jobs in the north of our country at the same time then don't justify bad behaviour today beacuse of ancient history, do they? No, because they don't have then mentality of spoiled children.
Yes, a speedbump can look like a mountain if you lie down and cry at it. It's pretty irresponsible of 'therapists' who can see this not to tell them to stand up but I guess they have to make a crust too.
You were affected by the Marriage Ban when you were 11? Wow, I'm sorry to hear that
Women could choose not to get married and keep working. Many did. And that Marriage Ban only applied to State jobs. Women were neve barred from being professionals or working in any are of society is they remained single but yes the State, for religious reasons, did insist married women looked after the children and their husbands were then paid extra to look after them. But they were never property and that's a Feminist lie.
Back then a schoolteacher or Garda could earn enough to look after his family but today he and his wife are flat out to struggle to look after at most two kids. Who has 'equality' helped? Women or employers?
That's for sure. There are a lot of genuine users but there are also the cliques and people with false profiles for their own silly reasons; probably ones then entail them having to talk to someone in a white coat periodically
The Eco-movement has less to do with keeping the planet and it's animal, including humans, safe than it is a front for groups pushing one-world government. Jacques Fresco, for instance, has been pushing his communist one world government for decades in various guises. These days he calls it the Venus Project and it's all about living collectively to preserve the earth. You can sell anything to fools if you package it right.
It seems to me that there are a good many groups preaching 'New Age' philosophies that are selling the same agenda as the elites; They all say we need to have a one world government, no cash, a great culling of humanity to less than one billion, collectivised living and what Marx would have called a Communist Utopia. Whether it is the Venus Project or the Climate nutjobs they all say we need to move to communes in cities and live in a totally regulated way. Look at this video selling a lifestyly right out of Aldous Huxleys Brave New World.
I think the new eco-cults are the main vehicle for instilling the New World Order memes into peoples heads. The Goddess Gaia is of course the old Masonic goddess, so not much new about these 'New Age' movements
Yeah, you're religious threads don't annoy me Pedro. What would annoy me would be the sports threads, the word threads and stuff like that so I just don't open them. It's always interesting to contemplate some religious issues whether you agree or not, from a philosophical point of view. It's a good mind work-out for one thing. It's not like you're standing at my door with a copy of The Watchtower trying to save me. Post whatever you like mate but if you could just try to put a decent question up so we have something to work with.
This Friday at Copper Neck Jack's the undefeated Golden Circle will take on the Somewhat jaded and depleted Groovy Gang in a head to head showdown to decide the all time greatest Conniption Singles heavyweight title. It's going to be an unforgettable 13 rounds of cursing, insults, Facebook stalking, name-calling, brawling, bawling and 'you-bullied-me' calling. See flame-baiting and trolling like you never dreamed possible. Clicks will form, disperse and reform faster than Botulism.
On the undercard will be Guards V. Nurses with it usual pelvic grinding 'oh bejasus that was grand Maggie' climax behind the pillars.
It's only themselves and God that can see the list. Speaking of Mormons and God; it's a scary thought that Mitt Romney could have the launch codes for hundreds of intercontinental ballistic missiles (big nukes) and he believes this .... err.... stuff
No prob. You do know that we're all Mormons anyway, right? Yep! The Mormons have it as one of their duties to get the names, dates of birth, etc of everyone on the planet as far back as records go and copy them to an archive in Salt Lake City. There, they pray for our souls and make us honorary Mormons. When the world ends we won't be going to the planet Kolob with them to live with God but we will have been purified. Now, isn't that nice of them
The mind shudders to think what you'd have to do to be chucked out of the RC Church. Once upon a time you'd be excommunicated if you were in the IRA but it's probably not easy to get out of that either
Pedro's right. Once you're in the Catholic Church you have to actively opt out but it's not hard to do.
I think if used to be a lot worse a while back in 'the good ole days' when there was a more assertive and aggressive gang running this thread like it was their own living room. The meets were a great place for planning strategy and formulating plans of attack. It's still a little like that but nothing like it was. Somehow the gannets nest seems to have been disturbed.
Ah yes, the Dublin young ones down in Courtown stalking the culchie young lads was like watching lionesses stalking an impala. All that was missing was David Attenborough's voiceover; ".... and sadly now there can be only one outcome"
I think that was intially part of the Honeynet Project cloud. A site that cloned Facebook and when you 'stalked' someone on Facebook you ended up on the Honeynet 'Facebook' (without knowing it) which had admin privilidges over your page because of cookies you accepted by visiting the page or something. It's a bit over my head really. I'm much to simple for that sort of counter-surveillance.
Negativity is seeing a negativity where none exists. Reality is seeing negativity where it is. Seeing a realist perspective of some issue that is generally portrayed in a fantasy way as negativity is delusion - if everyone says the economy is going to continue to grow and house prices rise well into the future then any realist who says otherwise is 'just being negative'. But who's negative now? The people who believed in the illusion and left their money in band stocks and housing or the people who were 'negative' and put their money in gold when it was €400 an ounce?
That's really not an accomplishment. It's more of a nullification of effort due to frustration. The floppy bum, the spindly-white-spotty legs, the stretch-marks, the empty breasts like a Discovery Channel documentary from the Amazon..... these are things that, once seen, can never be unseen.
