Virus?
Which one hit you? After seeing the board take a dive I notice my own phpbb board was badly outdated, no worries against a virus but this forum software is a target for script kiddies to haxor, figure I better update.

Poll Crazy
Lord look down that list, we were avg. 3 polls per month going back 2 years…and this is just general discussion.

RE: Govt. Response to Katrina
I am searching for the report now but one of my friends that lives down there said the papers for the past few months have been talking about money that was supposed to be for levee repair has been going to HLS instead…not sure if this is like a local biased rag or a national report but I am poking around this morning before work.
I am not saying we should have been down there the very second after it happened as you are right, no one can prepare for something like this and then respond. But it seems like going on 5 days later that enough help should be on it’s way and operations should be running, people should be getting out in droves and we shouldn’t see the mass chaos on tv still. If we are this disorganized even with knowing it was going to hit days in advance you have to wonder what is going on in the managment of FEMA for emergency prepardness.

RE: Govt. Response to Katrina
I’m with you on this, people should be dying due to dehydration, just a said day…maybe it can’t be helped but with every hour that people are still just there and the TV networks were able to get there and help didn’t makes you wonder what is wrong with FEMA.

RE: Aliens
I was just posing it in general…but if he did would he not passed on mention of brothers and sisters elsewhere in the heavens? Just playing devils advocate on this one as if you keep it from resorting to personal attacks it makes for stimulating talk.

RE: Aliens
Not to start a fight but what happens when we do find life out there that is either more or less advanced then we are…sort of settles the where we came from deal to a degree…then what?

RE: The Origin of Species
Well teaching something that isn’t fact isn’t really a good idea so if you take out Evo you probably shouldn’t put in Creation…again there are already schools all around that teach it, if it is a big deal for your child to learn it and not learn the heathen Evo theroy’s then look into private school. Of course the parents that want this so badly are also the ones that wouldn’t want to pay that much for their child to go to a private school, so here we are…:D

RE: The Origin of Species
Exactly. Science will never be able to prove that God does not exist. They can prove that they cannot find God, they can attempt to discredit evidence that supports the existance of God, but they cannot disprove God’s existance.
In the same respect no one can prove God does exist…

RE: The Origin of Species
Hax: Mr Ghoul: I could understand teaching the thoeries of reincarnation, evolution and creationism and other widely accepted beliefs of the origin of the human body and mind. I wouldn’t advocate teaching ancient religions except as electives since they are no longer active religions and thus, would bring no understanding between groups of individuals. (Last I checked, it’s been at least a few hundred years since Ares and Mars went to war with one another bringing war to the people….) However, teaching Christianity, Muslim, Jew, Hindu and Buddist might be wise - at the very least, it would teach understanding between the religions and maybe that understanding would bring more peace between the people. In any event, I doubt teachings of this type could bring harm, no more so then telling children who believe in God that it’s all tripe and that we evolved from fish and apes - IMHO.
Who’s going to pay for all this? Now not only do you need to squeeze in the normal class time but you need to get teachers who can do all this as well…the parents will start to throw fits about the other religions and it will turn into a Battle Royal with each faith stepping up - which is exactly my point and I am glad you hinted at this idea. Let the teaching of evolution be for public school and the teaching of creationism be for parochial school.

RE: The Origin of Species
Well, there are several religions besides Christianity.
Exactly. And they don’t all come to the same conclusion about anything…and in fact if you are going to teach one faith you might as well teach all. Buddism, Muslim, Native American Indian lore and it goes on and on. Religion is an ideal on how to live your life and something to believe in. But to start teaching that as fact in school with nothing to base it on outside of a book of stories that would be tough to swallow.
I’m not bashing anyone for being of a Christian faith at all her nor am I implying you are wrong for thinking this.

Can someone lock this so she doesn’t further expand on why killing the Jews wasn’t in itself wrong or something even more absurd?

RE: How Many People Use the Two-hit BB in A&A?
it was a given when we played, just seemed weak for the battle ship to sink after one hit to us…

RE: Rewrite history…
The thing about Normandy was there were many of them up and down the coast…just that was the biggest. I think if it failed we would have been even more resolved and would have put even more people on the beach…but can you imagine that cost of life, yikes…

RE: Who do you prefer to take Finland/Norway with?
It depends on Germany and how much UK navy is left, but most of the time I do it on R2, if there is a fighter stack there I have to wait until R4 or UK4 depending on the navy again.
