Dear Squeers

No, I don't read poetry. Except for the occasional haiku.

So shoot me.

I had held much respect for your opinion until now.

You are lecturing ME about shades of grey? Look in the mirror, you are blithely dismissing a significant part of the broad church that is non belief in deities.

Now, please, don't keep we knaves in suspenders any longer and tell us the name of the worst ideology of them all.

I don't think you can.

NIHILISM

Man! I was trying so hard to throw off this discussion....and since most think Iam communist and bat for the red corner, I thought my little rusky friend was quite appropriate:) Funny thou, well I thought so:)........well my distraction didn't work. Cant blame a comrade for not trying stop a con-vo from getting back into this sore, done!, tired out old thread, that's been beaten around ring more times than Rock Hudson.

Here it goes again....

Oh well:)

Next you'll be all existential. Tell me who has been killed, gaoled, excluded, re-educated, ostracised in the name of nihilism?

Is there a holy book of nihilism?

Places of worship?
