I have always been a researcher, as my view has always been positive. Having studied peoples attitudes for many years, I find that we are fast approaching what I can only describe as a 'Debunk Society' Rolling Eyes

If you remember the old fortune teller knocking at your door, to scrape a few bob for selling pegs, a good kick up the rump normally sent both pegs and pride flying out into the street. Followed by the old verbal curse on how you are going to get knocked over by a bus, for not parting with silver instead of boot leather.

Of course this is now totally politically incorrect, as you well know.

Exactly.......it is preaching.

Instead you should be told that according to her opinion, you may get run over by a bus. Apart from a bit of humane kindness, by tossing out some ointment for her sores, you are well within your right to have the person removed with the minimum of force. Providing that you do not disturb your neighbour by kicking her rump sideways instead into his back garden, or you could get done for Anti Social Behaviour.

So have these laws, solved the problem?

Depends how much beer you drank the night before, and how the gas has settled in your stomach after being disturbed.

Now I think they call themselves psychic consultants with Indian spirit guides perched on their shoulder, on the Internet charging $60 a time. The poor Indian who had been peppered by the White Mans six shooter, cannot go to the heavenly fields, but must instead provide radar due to their past sins. (sorry I think that phew!)

So what is my point?

There isn't one, else I would be preaching, providing no one answers. Otherwise it would be okay.

So what has happened?

Riots, otherwise people would say what they think. Instead they have to just follow the masses and go where the wind calls them....in more ways than one.

Well, it's taken a while, but finally something we can agree on!

I hate to break it to you, but the fact that someone answers you doesnt automatically mean you're not guilty of preaching.

Quote:
Etymology:Middle English prechen, from Anglo-French precher, from Late Latin praedicare, from Latin, to proclaim, make known, from prae- pre- + dicare to proclaim


So, to preach is to deliver a proclamation? Doesnt say anything about it being unanswered there. So, are you preaching? lets see...

Well, I'd argue that you don't need a continually positive view to be a researcher, more an open mind. not really proclaiming much though

A very negative thing to say considering that you always have a positive view. Maybe the positive response would be "we're entering what can only be described as an inquisitive and thinking society" Still, hardly preaching there.

Hmm, again, you're having a bit of a rant, yet you're not really making a point. Preaching? Hardly, it doesnt carry the intellectual gravitas of a sermon. It's just an angry jumble of words, that probably sound quite clever in your head, that come across as nothing more than a confused rant.

So, no, you're not preaching. The reason isnt because I answered, but it's because you're not actually telling us anything. I'd hazard a guess that you're trying to be a bit clever here. Well, sorry GK, but stick to what you're good at Wink

I hate to say this, but I can see no point of people debating nonsense.
What is basically nothing more than a humourous pont of flow.
If nonsense flows, why interact with it?

Again, this seems far away from the point of discussion, and whether it is garbage or interactive sense, it is just another excuse of:- "Get George"

I don't see these two also making any sense at all, apart from chasing me on other forums. People are tired of having their mouths quashed, because they have to pretend that they seek guidance from these two.

I have watched forums grow up from web pages to public forums and seen many an interesting discussion from those who can say what they think. People are getting damn right scared to talk anymore and have to have 'Facebook' and interact with people who they can really talk to.

You rant, preach, flame, gopher, troll and even trip up on your own shoe laces. Heck, these are just lame excuses because you don't agree with them.

It always breaks down to what is inside my head, no matter what the topics. I spent endless time, showing others photographs and live predictions only to be told that nothing counts

Indeed I have been banned for not liking dogs, mentioning the bible, forgetting to say "Hello", being racist for saying that planting bombs is wrong and even not agreeing that my light anomaly is nothing but dust.

Aparantly I am not good at anything, apart from antagonising these blessed souls. Some of which you are familiar. You know, I have had these things before, and people turn around and say :- "Prove it"

Then when things go terribly wrong, they look for 'Common Sense'
Either way, you cannot win, because those who set standards, have two of them. I once told a person that the next curse will come from his own lips.

He dared for a storm to hit Maine in the USA. I told others to watch his post and see. He laughed and said this make me a complete fool because Maine has a temp. of 30 dgrees and such a thing is virtually impossible.
Two days later, claxon bells were ringing as Maine was put on high emergency alert as Tropical Kyle had turned around for a direct hit on Maine from the caribbean. Did I win my bet...NO!

They set their tasks and then use common sense when they are proved wrong. What could be more intersting than watching the impossible happen? It happened exactly the same when Julio turned and hit California. Why...because they dared the forces that be. The same with Remouria in Auckland. If nadness be my rule, is not chronological facts theirs? Not at all!

This is what I call plain stupidity...or am I preaching?

Who cares a sod, whether we say invalid or cripple....the facts are the same.

These two are out to detest, and no matter what they see, they pickle around in dirt. The sad thing, is those who are a bit more inteligent, cannot work them out....as they strain for the most devious of motives, just to get me banned. (i don't care a sod....as my sandles have always had sand shaken)

George
