Buckster Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 22 minutes ago, Otto von Jizzmark said: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68978405 Well, isn’t that nice: Henry De Los Rios Polania, the guy who was attacked in his home by that sword-wielding lunatic, has credited God with saving his life via a miracle. He may well be right for all I know, because doing nothing until after the attacker has broken into your house and started slashing at you with a samurai sword and then providing nothing more useful with which to defend yourself than cuddly toys and cushions certainly has all the hallmarks of one of His half-arsed interventions. That’s precisely the level of competence I’d expect from someone who designed us with the single tube for breathing and eating that sees 160,000 people choke to death on their food every year, or who chose to reveal Himself not in one of the advanced civilisations of the time, like China or Egypt, but in front of a bunch of semi-stupefied peasants in the least literate part of the Middle East. This is why whenever religious dingbats tell me that "God has a plan for me" I always tell them that I'd really rather He left well alone, because we have to concede the fact that - by and large - His plans are shit. Unsurprisingly, our Hainault hero is strangely silent on why no such divine intervention was forthcoming for the poor 14-year-old lad who was attacked from behind and essentially decapitated only moments later as he walked to school. I can only assume that something more pressing had got the Almighty’s attention by this point – perhaps someone doing something sinful with their genitals, which seems to be one of His chief preoccupations as far as I can tell. Anyway, perhaps @Buckster the Bonkers Bible Boffin can shed some light on this, because it's beyond me... For someone who claims not to believe in God you spend a lot of time talking about him and based on what you claim about evolution, how come we ended up being so badly evolved? While it is clear that you think you could fathom something of God's plans or perhaps be capable of conversing with him as an equal, I can assure you that you are quite delusional, you are but a grain of sand on a beach.

Evolution/ natural selection only works up until breeding age, after that you can get cancer, have a leg fall off or think the moon landings were a hoax, it won't make any difference... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s GCSE biology, @Buckster… The more pertinent question is whether an intelligent designer would come up with such a bad design. Ditto for childbirth, teeth, the inefficiency with which our bodies use water, DNA and its propensity for transcription errors and the genetic diseases that result, ginger people, etc, etc… My brother has an encyclopaedic knowledge of how our bodies work, he might be in a similar line of business to you (but im only guessing at what you do), and he wakes up in the morning and stretches his arms and legs, flexes his fingers and thinks thank god, it all still works! Given all the things that can go wrong its pretty amazing that it all works most of the time. Edited to add - sorry, I didn't mean to give the impression that he is in any way religious, he's not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Fallsalot Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 We've had a few hot days here in Wales, sunburnt my head yesterday and it peaked at 30c here today also looking good for the weekend so far, nice not to get bloody wet in work for a change. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively you can choke then blame God because you didn't chew your food using what God gave you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Fallsalot Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Put the daughters car back together tonight, had a bitch of a job putting the rubber boot in the floor where the cables pass through all had to be done laying on my back underneath and there's a plastic thingy you remove on one cable that locks the end of it, i removed it in the wrong position at first and couldn't select some of the gears so when i worked out how to release the locking bit i made sure the gear box was in neutral and locked it when the gear lever was centered in the neutral position, not sure if that was the correct way to do it but all worked fine after that, Took two and a half hours fucking hate working on cars. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Did a 160 mile round trip to see my mum, traffic was awful, roadworks everywhere, shitty roads - coming up the hill with 100m to go until I'm home I was thinking that I'd got there and back without anyone trying to kill me, then a woman in a small silver hatchback pulls out of the school next to us straight in from of me. No "sorry mate", just ignores me and drives off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 5 minutes ago, Otto von Jizzmark said: Well you're not leaving me with much to contribute here, @Pedro. There'll be no ride reports because I still can't ride for long (I tried again last week and I've still got a burning sensation in my fingertips), my cooking isn't worth photographing, my photoshop skills fall woefully short of pasting cocks onto faces, and my science thread - my one attempt at raising the educational standard around here - ended up getting derailed into a discussion about donkey ownership or something. I suppose I could contribute some of my trumpet or bass playing, but both risk violating the Geneva Convention. If I can't come on here of an evening - possibly after drink has been taken - and needle Buckster for a laugh then what is my purpose in life? Even as I type I can feel myself descending into a pit of gloomy introspection and catatonic despair...
