Whose opinion do you want Don to have seven stars petist link or whatever your bloody daft name is..? Yours? jerks?

As far as I can see by all your previous posts you aint saying nothing special..just a lot of semi educated self opinionated guess work.

When will you and the other clowns on this site get the message..nobody knows who did or did what, who is wrong and who is right? Any right thinking person, such as muskett and I worked this out ages ago.

And for seaman staynes? well in my very humble opinion the opinion of a known fraud, brown nose, sneak and nautical imposter is not worth having.

When Akenaton says I support an organisation, it seems to be on the basis of knowing it exists. I also know what they set out to do. They support people who are gay in achieving the equality in society they have every legal right to. (Unless you wear a dog collar, then apparently you can feel sorry for them but just like for women, not allow them equality. Nobody said the law was perfect.)

Akenaton says in one breath that I support them and that someone who used to work for them happened to be a paedophile, so why am I supporting that organisation?

The logic behind that is rather distasteful, let alone disgusting. As the paedophile worked for them in their Scottish branch, I wonder if his logic that paedophilia and gay are linked, whether he feels paedophilia and Scottish are similarly linked?

As the moderators feel it best to call a spade an earth inverting horticultural implement, I shall refrain to comment too far about that rather extraordinary slur and perhaps ask Akenaton to help us understand what he is saying?

Perhaps he may also explain how knowing the existence leads to supporting? After all, he seems to know a hell of a lot more about them than I do...

You forgot to add "so what?", but that's what you meant, isn't it Ian?

Christ!.....what kind of man are you?.

This is the chief executive of LGBT Youth Scotland were talking about, a male homosexual organising the biggest homosexual paedophile ring in history.

This guy was actually advising insecure youngsters on sexual orientation and organising homosexual adoption in Scotland while anally raping babies.
Not just one man but a dozen of his friends and acquaintances.

Go hang your head in shame, you make light of this disgrace yet take ME to task for pointing out homosexual health rates and ways to halt an epidemic of disease.

More to the point, the case that you are inciting hatred is extremely dubious.

Whether you are incorrectly or correctly interpreting the health data, "male to male sexual contact is dangerous from a public health perspective" is hardly a war cry. More like incitement to boredom.

"Ignore all trolling"....Problem is Grishka, quite a lot of people like to see trolls attacking people who do not share their views...its a sort of proxy war, in which some members never need to get their "hands dirty"
Its really the job of the mods to sort out serious "trolling" which could destroy this section of the forum.
Jack must be given credit for taking it upon himself to remind some guests about the rules which apply here.....he has been quite successful in his mission and the bad behaviour has almost ceased.

There appears to be a little confusion among the membership as to the actual rules. Some seem to think that certain subjects should not be discussed especially if views are expressed with which they disagree.

As far as I am aware, there is no subject or issue, which is verboten!!

Any local council website has the referral form, also available on websites of groups such as stonewall and The Commission for Equality and Human Rights. Internet service providers have a duty to ensure reporting of breaches are dealt with.

It's very simple. In fact so simple I did it again just now.

I doubt the owner of this website will be required to pass the IP details to the state authorities to pass on, as ignorant rants from insignificant small people aren't exactly top of their list, nor the UK authorities they have sharing agreements with under UK and federal laws.

So.... Perverted, against natural law, compared to paedophiles, not wanting marriage etc etc. No, you don't seem to hate them at all. Fuck knows what hate looks like from your grim corner.......

Jack, "concerened" believes to act in self-defence (and defence of "the disinherited"), like many others who present a poor image on Mudcat. I have no aspirations to the roles of police or judge; I just offer (modest) advice to those who wish to improve their image. The most important one is to ignore all trolling completely, totally, entirely, and without exception.

Grishka,

"concernered" is a persona of broadly do-gooder agenda who (most of the time) thinly disguises as a troll, in order to make mockery of threads like this one. "

That may be what she has said she is doing. But she is more making mockery of certain people than of threads "like this one" and she is unkind, impolite and argumentative when she does so. Please pardon me if you have read me saying this before. But if you click on "membership" you will find that such behavior violates the terms of conduct of this forum. If you would be so kind as to convince her to try to do whatever she is doing within the confines of behavior set by Max, I would appreciate it, lots of members would appreciate it.

For those who missed it: "concernered" is a persona of broadly do-gooder agenda who (most of the time) thinly disguises as a troll, in order to make mockery of threads like this one. She also has a regular Mudcat membership. When she first posted as "concernered", I thought the new persona was male, "Strange Case of Ms Hyde and Mr Hyde", so to speak. Later she preferred her presumably real gender, "Ms Hyde and Ms Hyde".

Tragically, her imitation of a troll is not only lacking skill, but pointless from the beginning, since there is nothing left to be ridiculed anyway. Some do the self-ridiculing on purpose, for their own fun if nobody else's. Those who do it unintentionally may well be warned, though with little chance of success. This includes the genuine person behind the "concernered" mask. (Hint: if my memory serves me, she writes above that she knows some of the protagonists here from folk clubs ...)

If Ian has if fact reported the website to the authorities, then I suppose he is in serious trouble from admin.
But I don't think he is agenda driven enough to do something so utterly stupid. He seems to be very close to "Stonewall" the homosexual rights pressure group, and perhaps he has reported the site to them hoping they will take some sort of action.

Of course its quite obvious to any sensible person that I have said nothing that could be construed as "hatred of homosexuals", and as I have said many times, I do not feel any "hatred" towards them.
The health figures are in the public domain, and Sherlock would require to interview them, before directing his Meerschaum towards me. :0).

This site is the property of Max, he makes the decisions about how it is run, I will respect any decision he makes, I will abide by the rules of this site, I will not try to affect any decisions, or pressurise admin to take action against any other member, unless they are in flagrant breach of website rules....Ake.

Interesting Don.

On the basis he might exist, his followers use the word omnipotent whilst demonstrating him as largely impotent.

If there is intelligent design in some way, our present situation, in my humble opinion, is the result of a process not a will.

The established religion idea doesn't get past first base. If you demand rather than earn credibility, people will dismiss you more than ever these days. Education and access to information is largely replacing superstition. People may feel the need for a comfort blanket and why not? But a blanket that doesn't have answers scrawled on it doesn't allow you to be a hoopy frood who knows where his towel is.

Pete, when Galileo managed to cobble together a telescope and directly examined some of the "heavenly bodies," what he SAW verified the theory of Copernicus, that the earth revolved around the sun, not the other way around. So the earth could NOT be the center of the universe as was the conventional teaching of the time.

The CHURCH hauled him before the Inquisition and made him say that his observations were in error, under threat of being burned at the stake if he didn't. Galileo, taking the discrete route, allowed as how he might have been in error, thus saving his life—while knowing that sooner or later, scientists to come would verify that he had been right.

But the Church sure put a crimp in Galileo's scientific studies.

Science neither affirms nor denies the existence of God. The problem is narrow minded literalists who can't see the bigger picture, and lack imagination.

God MIGHT be a whole lot more omniscient and omnipotent that most religious people imagine.

It's the fourth day Jack.

No, seriously. It is. Note I called you Jack not Jerk in order to demonstrate my sincerity in this theological matter.

You see, if pete can come up with definitive conclusions from the first book in the genre science fantasy, so can I. Don't get me started on books further along the evolutionary literature scale. Michael Moorcock? I've shit 'em.

pete I've read it often enough and I've read analysis often enough.

The Bible just does not work as a science text. If you just assume that God "can" do all of these things you toss away the importance of describing what he did. Oh yeah, well God just DID it. Don't ask how!   

Genesis says that God divided the night from the day 3 days before he created the sun. In the Universe that exists today, what is day and night and how are they divided?

The account also says that he divided the day from the night twice, on the first day and then on the fourth. If every thing in the Bible is true and the unerring word of God. Which is it. the first day or the fourth?

Jack, if you read the bible ,I think you might see that the animals were bought to Noah, he did not have to round them up........the generations I mentioned were not the genealogies and other biblical data, but of animal life, though I accept that the generations of men can be better estimated from the biblical data and other records.    The point is ,that there were several hundred yrs for animals to distribute globally....and I remind you that what you are challenging there, is evolutionary talk too!   The part that man played is only part of the overal picture of the movements........I would like to think that your misunderstanding is unintentional, or that I was not clear enough.          If you read your bible, or when I should say, you will know who it is that is described as light in whom there is no darkness at all.   Do you think that he is unable to provide a light source before the sun was created on day three?    And do you not think that the biblical writer/ compiler did not realise that light now comes from the sun. If anything, what you claim discredits genesis testifies to its genuineness.   I will try to be clearer, and maybe you might need to read more carefully too.

Look, it's like this.

Take concerened (sic) for instance. It is obvious that she has me weighed up, so why not you? Go with the flow and you will feel better for it.

You might feel more happy about addressing people's observations of where you are coming from rather than your somewhat tedious referrals to fictitious rules.

Militant atheism isn't a religion but religions usually start by someone enforcing arbitrary, often self serving rules. You seem to be getting further than the co Messiahs and associated gnome (honorary co Messiah Emeritus.). If that's your aim, I take my hat off to you.

Doubt I'll be praying at your altar though all the same.
