  1. try re-con o gize imagine... a hot august day a gentle breeze blowing through your residence. you flick on the TV and bush is talking about bin laden. "we will get him. we will reconogize the entire area" you know it'll happen
  2. its pronounced pelican. like the bird. it was a spelling error I made when I was 8. I liked it, so I kept it. edit oooo I think its spelt recognize, but I really have no clue.
  3. hitler started by making similar observations of the jews.
  4. "Then there are people like Pell that refers to polls 'showing' that NDP are growing stronger and that the CA are getting weaker, or something to that effect. " HEY I've been saying, over and over and over and over that all 3 parties, PC, CA, and NDP are at 15% how many times to I need to say it before it sinks in? you say that I have said the NDP is higher then the alliance, I never did so. I also SAID that even if the PC's had 20%, they may not win any seats. the worst part of the whole thig is that when I say the alliance is at 15%, you guys claim its not, when the alliance's OWN newsletter, puts the party at 15%, along with the PC party and NDP. enough with this bull, I'm right, and its about time someone reconogized it.
  5. pellaken says this, and nothing, mrs hoy says this, and its the law
  6. if Islam was a falure, they wouldent have 1 billion followers.
  7. canada is a non-a**hole nation. therefore we dont have a law that says only canadians can be PM. the US, however, has such dictatorial laws, that should be changed. and I would think it fun to see the Canadian democratic governor of whatever state that was run for Prez against the Terminator. the solgans: vote democrat, eh? vote republican, cause if you dont, I'll be back.
  8. that law needs to be changed aronld would be a great president... untill the steriods finally fry his brain.
  9. Hugo the british empire no longer exists.
  10. I think Bush should be re-elected... so long as he promises to do something about the deficit
  11. it dosent matter how good or bad it is, so long as you beleive it'll get you to heaven. I will not argue for or against any religion, as I dont know which one is the right one. Islam is a religion, and therefore, must be respected.
  12. Muslims belive Allah is god. why must you insalt their religion? Islam is 1300 years old. When Christiantiy was 1300 years old, it had the same iron-sided belif system. may I remind you that in the year 1200 we had our own Jihad against the muslims. we called it the crusaded. the whole point was to kill as many muslims as possible. IF you are going to insult islam, you MUST also insult christianity, because both are equally as good, and, if you beleive, equally as evil.
  13. most of you know my religions stance. what you DONT know is that a few years ago, I looked at each religion, and wondered if I should join any. Christianity placed last (no offence) I did not know enough about hinduisim or buddasim to make a decision. Judasim did have merit, but was like Christianity Light in my opinion. Islam was the only religion I could fully respect. I know quite a bit about it. first of all, Islam has its problems. the way the quran is written allows for violence. Then again, the bible is no text of peace either. just as the bible is based on the jewish religion plus modern thinking (IMHO) the islamic religion is based on the christian religion plus modern thinking (IMHO) At the time, Arabia was very violent, and the religion needed to be violent to survive. That it has done, Islam is the fastest growing religion on earth (though that's somewhat of a false statement) Why is islam growing to fast? simple. its based in poor countries where populations are exploding. if you wanted to talk about conversions alone, then voodo or wicca would probably the worlds fastest growing religion, but in terms of children being brought up Muslim, then by far, it is Islam. Now before you go on about the Usuma Bin Laden's in the world, look at the Middle Class muslims. most of them live in the 1st world (France, The USA etc..) and they are, for the most part, NOT terrioists. now, I may not be the best person to talk about the issue of islamic terroisim. I once went on a 45 minute rant on it, which made my teacher respond "my god, you are the islamic hitler, arent you?" I have MAJOR issues with Islamic Terrorisim. I belive I once said, shortly after 9-11 "Nuke Mecca" while I regret saying that, at the time, you bet I was mad. but we must look at WHY they are terrorist. simple they are VERY religious, and the american culture is, in reality, destroying their religion. not america, the american government, or even americans. the american culture, of being lazy, then turning around and giving EVERYTHING up to get what you want. this view is shared by 90% of americans 50% of canadians, and about 2 other people on earth. but it is destroying the Islamic religion, which is based on tradition. Catholosisim, as it used to be, no longer exists in north america for the most part. like Islam, the Roman Catholic religion is based on tradition, and today, that tradition just dosent exist. Spain, France, and Italy still have these traditional churches, but they are dieing out quickly. some numbers. very educated guesstimates Christians: 2 billion Muslims: 1.1 Billion Roman Catholics: 900 million Sunni Muslims: 800 million Protestants: 700 million these numbers have changed in the past 10 years. 10 years ago, there were 100 million more people that defined themself as "catholic" and 200 million less that defined themself as "muslim" chances are, that when I die, there will be more Muslims on earth then Christians. now, lets go back to the core issue. islam has not made people rich. is it susposed to? I dident think religion was an economic theory. also, islam has not helped out society. I disagree, Islamic countries are, per capita, the most giving countries to charity. "Discrimination, hate, death, Fatwa's, no outside news or book reading, ignorance, crime, unemployment, anger, attitude all from this monolithic construct that forces people to believe in spiritual nonsense" this could have been said 700 years ago about Christianty. Remember, Islam is 700 years younger then Christianity. "the Arabs took over more advanced cultures and left them alone. " The Ottomans did that, but the Ottomans were never very religions.
  14. to respond to, and hence correct, my previous post: "and christianity is just plain stupid." no its not. its a belif system, that I just disagree with "some guy comes and says "I'm the son of god" does a few magic tricks..." or in the words of a christain a virgin is born to mary, who is the son of god. he comes to earth to die for our sins, and preformes miricles while here "...and poof, 2 billion followers." poof, taking 2000 years. I do respect all religions, and apoligise to anyone who took offence to this post
  15. my post was purly to prove a point. you belive what you do. islamic followers think that the word of Muhammed is the correct version of who god is. followers of christ, think that Jesus was the son of god. Followers of the Jewish faith, are still waiting for thier Jesus to come along. etc... I respect all religions, and its about time we ALL started doing the same. just because I disagree with you dosent mean that I have the right to bash your belif system
  16. and christianity is just plain stupid. some guy comes and says "I'm the son of god" does a few magic tricks, and poof, 2 billion followers. its not how feasable or good any religion is. the followers of a religion beleive it is the right religion, and thats about it. and if anoyne thinks my shot at christianty "crossed the line" I dare you to prove that Craig's shot at Islam did not.
