    People hatin' on Dawkins

    I don't much like him. He's awfully arrogant and condescending. I feel like he's a bit of an inside-the-box thinker. There's not much room there for explorations outside his own world-view. And it seems to me that whenever he argues against religion, it's mostly directed against Abrahamic...

    Your Older Posts That Make You Shudder

    I have a few that I cringe a little on rereading, but I find I can't regret them. I've done a lot of growing in the near-10 years I've been on this forum.

    American parents

    You want a line between teasing and bullying and what is ok? If a kid is getting teased, and is laughing along with the teasers, it's probably ok. If he/she is getting teased and looks upset about it, I'd say it was definitely not ok. The problem with bullying and teasing is less the...

    Clean Jokes.

    A man was at the top of a tall building, looking like he was about to jump. A physicist saw him and yelled "don't do it! You have so much potential!"

    holiday name?

    Thanks guys :) many U.S. pomegranates were sold today! I wrote a sign, and got some very positive feedback, being that Jewish holidays are not very well known here... "may your good deeds be many, happy Rosh hashanah" A fair few people asked about it and what it meant, so Wellington is all...

    So the seeds are symbols for new growth, yes? And it's basically any fruits with a lot of seeds - pomegranate, dragonfruit, raspberries, kiwifruit etc?

    holiday name?

    So I work with a lot of produce, and I've had a few people from the Jewish community approach and ask for particular foods containing lots of seeds for a holiday coming soon. I was considering making it a selling point "pomegranates! Perfect for xxxxxxxxx" but I've forgotten the name of the...

    This is my philosophy - agree with it or no?

    ? oh, peace, you elusive ideal. How do we get you to stick around? Oh yeah, torture and kill everyone! Brilliant! Why has no one thought of this before!

    Happy 2015!

    I went out partying, met a bunch of cool people, made some new friends. I finally got home to the sounds of birds singing their morning songs and sun beginning to lighten the sky at 5am this morning
