... with the ducks? ..... Or the demons??

"This *young man* (cough!!) lost his mother, and we're going in to find her!" That's rich! Glad ya enjoyed the show. ... So, did ya see any 'debbil spurts'? It being David Copperfield and all.

I think each game (I know Eve does) has a downloadable client software package that installs, and then you can then subscribe on the web site for monthly charges. When you run the game, it'll ask you to log in (using the login info provided you by the site), and then you can start playing.

Something has just occured to me. Ron, This is a classic example of a quote that has a certain extent of truth to it. Ie., History is always written by the victors. However (you knew it was coming, didn't ya? ;) ), that concept is not total and complete in and of itself. Ie., it only goes so far. What that line does not cover is archaeological evidence, specific dates, specific incidences that has occured (and can be documented), etc., etc., ie., things that are based on reality and fact. In those instances, there is only so much that the 'victor' can do, ... except to hide said information. But the information is still _there_, regardless of the writings of the victor. So no, I don't take this oversimplified line of 'History is always written by the victors.' as the be-all and end-all of what/how to determine history. It is something to take into consideration, yes. But it isn't something that cannot be challenged.

... and more and more experts in the field, having shown documented evidence that is still showing up, have indeed shown us that information. Hint: the revisionists are not in that group of experts, due to the dishonest and selective portrayal of either propaganda or evidence that they may very well have. One clear evidence of this is their pre-set mindset against the Jewish people, often using the 'Zionist' issue as their clarion call to cover up said mindset (much like Joe McCarthy has used the clarion call against Communism as a jump off point for his abuses of power) And it is this evidence that automatically (in my POV) discards/stains whatever valid points they may have.

There ya go, Dave! :) And that's another thing about Eve: it's superb graphics. ..... which brings up the point that, to really play the game, you'll need 1 gigabyte of memory, 3D graphics card wtih 128meg of onboard video memory, 400-600 meg of HD space, and a 1.5-2.0 ghz Pentium 4 (or equivalent) box to run w/o any real problems. At least! :o

Yes Tom, what I'm trying to gently tell you, ... is that the earth ... is NOT flat. :blink: :blink: Now, now, just sit right down here, and if you feel the need to cry, go right ahead. I'm here for ya. :D

But that's the point, Oldies, the whole point that is the main undercurrent to your whole pretense of 'open minded consideration' of this topic: ie., your loyalty to Victor Paul Wierwille. Period.I seriously *doubt* that you would give the time of day to the revisionist side if it weren't for VeePee's acceptance of their drivel. Good grief! What would you accept if VPW taught that the earth is flat?! :blink: There is always that nagging fact that the revisionists just can't quite shake, can they Tom? Ron is indeed right in that holocausts (in general) happen in just about any war you can name. This one, in particular, stands out in that it was (one of the few, at most) where the determined and planned extermination of a certain type/kind of people was deliberately attempted. That is what sets it apart from your 'garden variety' holocaust/war crime. (And yes, the Soviet Russians do need to be more focused upon for their part in exterminating Jewish people, not that that focus hasn't occured at all, mind you) There is a REAL difference between simply accepting that the Holocaust happened just 'cuz some authority figure says so, and accepting that the Holocaust happened because of the overwhelming evidence (notwithstanding what the revisionists say) supporting such claims. I mean, there is a certain threshold to a set of facts, after which when challenging said set becomes an exercise in futility, irrational thinking, and illogic. ... Kinda like trying to argue why the earth _is_ flat, or why H2O does _not_ make water.

Zixar, Master Online Game player I see. I play Eve Online myself, which is a space based game where you can fly an assorted variety of ships and play different roles, such as space fighter, miner, merchant trader, mercenary, pirate, etc. And believe you me, that game is sheer *massive* in size, both in the size of the play area, and the number on online players playing at the same time. One time it got to over 25,000 online at once, all in the same galaxy! (Ie., All playing in the same persistant game world, for the technically minded game players) :o Anywho, some of the phrases that I hear over there, in addition to many of yours, is: carebear = someone who plays in a totally (most of the time anyway) non-aggresive manner towards other players 'roids = short for asteroids, which are often used for mining ore and minerals rats = short for piRATe, usually reserved for the computer generated enemy ships that attack your ship when you come into the area cans = usually containers of either ore (from mining), or loot (that appear when you shoot down another ship) ore thieves = people who usually sneak up on you while you're mining and steal the ore out from the can you're putting the mined ore into, and then split before you can do anything about it. Also very uncool, like the ninjas. macrominers = ships used by certain players that operate on running macros that usually mine the crap out of asteroid fields (leaving little for others), and is a practice that is forbidden by CCP. Ie., if you get caught by CCP, you're account is terminated. Permantly! nerf = same thing as in Zix's post, and also highly complained about when CCP (the authors of Eve) 'tweaks' the game and limits a capability or piece of equipment. noob ship = the ship that you start out with when you first start playing and learning Eve skills = different abilities that your character train for that cover a *wide* range of subjects/areas. And they come at different levels too, where the first lvl (defined below) takes the shortest time (about half an hour or so), and the fifth lvl, which can take you up to a month! lvl = short for level corp = No, not Way Corp (thankful for that, ehh? ;) ), but short for space corporations, literally hundreds to choose from, and are either computer generated or are player made corps, each one having different agendas and goals to accomplish. corp wars = when different corp(orations) go to war against each other podded = when not only your ship gets destroyed, YOU (in your escape pod) get smoked by enemy fire. BUT, not to worry, you are regenerated as a clone at a nearby space station. :) character name = a name that you can assign to your character that other folks can call you by. Mine is ((ahem)) Garth Skytrader. ..... Ahhhh shaddap!! Anywho, that's just a few of them, and here is the link to find out more about Eve Online. Warning: Due to its size and incredible depth of play and content, it can be VERY addictive and time consuming once you get started. It is THAT fun! Believe me! I spent many an hour per week playing this game when I first started (June 2004), and it is to date my favorite online game, bar none. (So I know the feeling, Zix! :B) )

... such a *tough* choice ........ NOT!

With this particular ministry, I can easily picture their baptism ceremonies. "I baptise you in the name of Norm!"

Raf would like to think so, I imagine.

T-bone sez, I respond with: That's like asking Bill Clinton to tell the truth about 'having sex with that woman', or like having L. Craig Martindale to totally come clean as regards his abusive behavior. Ie., it ain't gonna be done! <_<

Only for those who take their pizza WAY too seriously.

Pineapple on pizza?

:unsure: So you can be like Popeye? "Well, blow me down!"

Oh and keep in mind, you are incorrect that a true facist wouldn't be (or act at least) like a patriot and wouldn't do things like salute the American flag or sign up for the military. As a matter of fact, you go to a good number of these pro-facist sites, and what is one of the prominent things that they have displayed? The American flag. Not because they are real patriots and value the things that this country stands for, they don't. But saluting/being in favor of the American flag is something that just anybody and his brother can do. Its what they really stand for when the press/spotlight isn't around that determines where they are really at.

Uhhh Oldies, ... Hello Oldies?? ..... :unsure: Do you know the *real* reason Hitler 'fought the Communists', ie., invaded Russia? One word: LAND. Ever hear about the statement that Hitler/the Nazis used to justify the taking of Austria/Czeckoslovakia/Poland/other countries? Goebbels' 1943 Speech on Total War where he talked about the German people need more "breathing room". Ie., lands taken by conquest for the Third Reich. And yeah, Goebbels also talked about fighting Bolshevism as a defense, yadayada, ... which was basically propaganda on his part using the popular anti-Communist tirade in order to further Hitler's own totalitarian goals. Ie., he wasn't any better than them, son. Your loyalty to VeePee has gone to near Smikeol's insanity level. Quite desperate in form and substance in order to protect and maintain whatever thin shred of dignity is left of VPW's reputation, and even that is questionable at best. Face it chief. The man has had his chance to make something positive of himself and to others. ... He failed. ... Miserably! And the more you defend him, the more evident this appears. Wake up and smell reality already.

THUD of course meaning: The Household Under Destruction. ... Yep, that just about fits it.

Oldies, Want to take a look at your numbers again, chief? :unsure:

Ever notice that with groups like this (be it TWI or mainstream churches) is that when they do give you the heave-ho out the door, they never offer to refund your money, nor thank you for all the time and effort in helping their church. <_<

Oldies, As regards to your solution, what would that then do to the biblical prophecy about Jesus coming back to the Isreal area? If all of the Jewish people move here, and there is nothing but Muslims staying in Jerusalem and the land of Isreal, ... how does that all fit in with all the stuff that the book of Revelation talks about? Kinda breaks it, doncha think? :unsure: (I ask all this cause I know that it's the theology or like the theology that you believe in. Of course, correct me if I'm wrong here.)

The Almighty THE has been mentioned on episode 3 of THE Greasespot Radio. :) hehehehehhehehe ... Poor Paw and Raf.

There is so much difference between what happened at Dresden (which was done as a part of a declared war) and the Jewish holocaust (in which they were attempted to be exterminated as a race/people), that it isn't even funny. No comparison at all. That wasn't even a nice try, Oldies.

See? See?!? Told ya there wasn't 6 million killed! (tongue planted firmly in cheek)
