I wonder which oil company stands to gain the most from the recent attacks on American embassies?
I paid 3.72 for 87 octane today.

mckinley: its self explanatory.any educated person knows the meaning.
it does seem rather odd, that 2..now 3 christians here on this board want to criticize and ridicule anyone that throws out another option or opinion. so much for "brotherly love."
myself...I'll stick to the "harm ye none" philosophy.

Iamon lyme: " man with flatulence,should not talk in circles!"

Artful Dodger: but thats the funny part!

Artful Dodger: lol

Iamon lyme: you seem a bit perturbed. I'm not agreeing or disagreeing..just offering an observation.
the 10 commandments are a tough act to follow,imo. bible thumping hypocrits are everywhere. I dont need to be a "god" to see this.

Iamon lyme: but...since we're talkin religion...not many "true" Christians out there.
same with the Muslims,or any other religion for that matter.

when the smoke clears and the dust settles...the only ones coming out on top are the oil companies.

Iamon lyme: I think it shows there are a lot of hippocrates in all religions.

Artful Dodger: ummm..Crusades?

Iamon lyme: no...I mean its really not up to an athiest to prove there isnt a god.

Iamon lyme: its really the other way around.

Iamon lyme: dont inhale??? lol

Artful Dodger: businesses either raise rates or flat go broke. more unemployment..higher cost of living.

Iamon lyme: " the word "religious" does not cancel out the word "atheist"."

it does when the religion is perfect harmony.

mckinley: google has its uses.

♥♫βaβyĢіґŁŁє♫♥:

(V): if you believe in God...you must believe in the Devil.
Iamon lyme: some branches of wicca is another religion that doesnt believe in God.

Iamon lyme: that seems a bit ignorant. there are many forms of atheist..some religious.

Iamon lyme: imagine seeing such a site,in those days. if he would have told everyone.."hey! I just saw an ALIEN!" he'd have been stoned(maybe he was) or in the least,deemed a heretic.
preachers have a way with bending terms and words.
I think all deities are the result of encounters.

MissDelish: We're not alone!!
personally I feel politics are no more than diversions developed by the big business' that run the countries and their puppet politicians.

(V): being the google king..I would have thought you'd have cyphered this out.
Rod asked"Is it "anti Christian" to believe there may be life else where in the universe?"
I stated" Ezechiel saw the wheel"
the book of Ezechiel describes what I believe to be,an ALIEN encounter.

now as far as "shrooms" go......lol heres a guy that was picking the wrong kind.


but...as I was feebly trying to add input.. I was at least staying with the conversation at hand.

Ezechiel saw the wheel

rod03801: guess they never heard of richard m. daily.
a lot of dead people were voting in chicago for a lot of years! lol

Iamon lyme: lol..

Artful Dodger: only 2 states in the nation deny felons the right to vote.

Bernice: lol

Artful Dodger: it doesnt matter. the charges are still exorbitant.
yomama care, just forces everyone to be held up by the price gouging hospitals.
just like the government forcing the auto industry to build vehicles that get better gas mileage,then over-looking what people are paying at the pump.

as I see it...many people over look the main problem. its the root of the whole issue.
who in their right mind,pays 32.00 for a .79 package of tissue?
15.00 for 2 aspirin?
265.99 for some guy to take an x-ray...
357.89 for another to read it..

these prices are extreme to the point of being unbelievable..but true.
HOSPITALS
they gouge the insurance companies
they gouge the patients
they gouge the government
they gouge the doctors
etc
then kick back,rake in trillions while everyone points fingers at each other.

(V): I would think England has the same issues as many "small"(land mass) countries...over population and no where to go but up.

in the U.S. its the rising costs of utilities,recession, and "green" awareness.
houses are selling for 50 cents on the dollar in some areas..which puts a strangle hold on the construction industry.
doesnt really matter...in 10 months we're goners anyways! lol

Übergeek 바둑이: homes are shrinking...not growing.

(V): what does terminal velocity have to do with the fact that if birds dont flap..their gunna fall..no matter what their terminal velocity is. gravity WILL win by confrontation with the earth! lol

(V): "They still have to fly."
thats only because gravity is free also!

hydro is the way to go.

Artful Dodger: in "theory" nothing is perfect yet all things are possible.

Übergeek 바둑이: you summed it up in a nutshell. theres no "left" or "right" but corporate and money changers.

DAMMIT!!

(V): the entire problem in a nutshell.

I wonder if the Bush and cheney families will attend the services?

I think they should have taken him alive......strapped a bomb to his jihad ass....and video'd blowin him to Allah.

(V): so you admit that this(""seeing as less then a hundred years ago we did not know there was one."") statement was indeed wrong!

(V): you said..""seeing as less then a hundred years ago we did not know there was one.""
then you claim I need history lessons by saying this...""....Edwin Hubble's arrival at Mount Wilson, California, in 1919 coincided roughly with the completion of the 100-inch (2.5 m) Hooker Telescope, then the world's largest telescope. At that time, the prevailing view of the cosmos was that the universe consisted entirely of the Milky Way Galaxy."
evidently, mankind knew there was a universe...just didnt know how large...which is still the case today.
there have been astronomers throughout time.
give it a rest...no one thinks your very smart on these matters....google it!! lol

(V): "seeing as less then a hundred years ago we did not know there was one."
lol..better check google

Pedro Martínez: lol thats the most inelligent thing you've said all week!!

The Col: sounds like the perfect politician

Artful Dodger: I'm beginning to think Donald Trump has the answer.

Übergeek 바둑이: "If Libya had no oil, would any of this be happening?"
of course not.

Übergeek 바둑이: excellent!

Bernice: so true
