Dear Jayb,

Why on earth would I want to make myself familiar with
somebody else's Holy Book? I have enough on my plate
just keeping up with my daily life. What with volunteering
at my mum's nursing home, looking after grandchildren,
copping with my injuries (I've got one good leg left),
going to specialists, taking my medications - and you want
me to now humour you - as well?

I take people as I find them and so far I've been very
fortunate. Most people have been decent human beings.
It is the spirit of the human being which can fill me with
more joy than anything in the world. I've actually met very
few bad people along my life's journey. That could be due
to the way that I was brought up.

Hi there TTBN...

Thank you very much indeed for your generous compliment, albeit undeserved as it was. STEELEREDUX is OK, we've 'kicked about' many a topic over time, rarely ever agreeing to anything of substance, nevertheless I thoroughly enjoy the sport as it were, and so does he I suspect. As a matter of interest there's only one contributor herein which I have an utter dislike, and he knows it. Thanks again ol' man, and stay true to your beliefs and opinions, that's what it's all about.

Dear ttbn,

SteeleRedux a lefty thug, you say?

No. It's a huge disservice to label people.

You're better than that.

Left/Right/ or closed minded or open minded?
A mind set in its ways is wasted.
Don't do it.

Some wise person once said that:

"I find the best minds are closed with openable windows."

OSW: They may lose the battle, militarily. They'll simple avail themselves to habitual terrorism with terrorists strategies and tactics.

In other words, "We'll keep blowing you up until you get the message & convert to Islam. If you don't convert to the right type of Islam we'll blow you up some more & if you switch types of Islam you be an apostate & we'll blow you up again." Wonderful religion, isn't it?

Foxy,

"I am not a theologian so I can't answer your question"

Funny that; you asked if I took the Bible literally; I guess that that was just an empty question to fill in space, and here was I thinking that there may have been some depth to your question.

dear Mrs Foxy...

You say to TTBN "it is big diservice to label people, and you are better than that" And a lot of other words too.

How come you say that about TTBN and not that about that nasty AJ Phillips person? When he calls TTBN an ASS, also he make a reference with a picture from the Guardian?

When AJ Phillips attack me you also stick up for him. Even when he said words like God and dogs about Albanian people. That is hurting Albanian people to say that. He is a nasty man yet you like him?
