To be fair I agree with that
I suppose I'm all for a bit of discussion on forums etc. I do it all the time.. I gues I find it anoying when bloggers (especialy v.bloggers who just like the sound of thweir own voice) but their opinions on a pedastool?
hmm I may have to give this some more thought, its hard not to be hypoctritical about this?
It my belief that every ones beliefs are as worthy/worthless as every one elses.. but I suppose if some one's belief is that their beliefs are more worthy than others, who the fuck am I to disagree ;)
Hmm its a toughy... i gues its just that i dont draw the line at hating emo v.bloggers and that i hate v.bloggers in general.. well self rightious ones..
The only problem is for my degree i'm doing a module on web 2.0 and as such have to make a blog at some point.. maybe I should do a self rightious v.blog on how much I hate v.bloggers?

It's like a mirror, reflected in a mirror, surrounded by shadows and shrouded in mystery
I think i'm just too old to get that worked up about things anymore. Except Leeds United consistently being more shit that they were yesterday, and reality TV. Oh, and I also could do without emo youtube stuff, but that can easily be avoided by just not watching the videos...

Well,
I think there is a good litmus paper and that is: Is it true?
If the religious tits would stop indoctrinating children at a time when they are, pretty much, conditioned to believe what they hear then I would agree with you.
EDit: Also, from what you have written, I don't think you have really listened to Pat Condell - this does mean that I take your views with a handful of salt.

Hmm sort of
Not having kids my self I dunno. But surely its hard not to indoctrinate your chilren into what you believe?
Anyway i grew up in C of E, went to sunday school, went to a C of E primary school, got confirmed when I was 11 or what ever. I managed to work out I was at least agnostic by the time I was 15.
I do have a problem with people indoctrinating their kids to be homophobic through the guise of religion, racist through religion etc. etc.
But as far as personal belief, and joining with other people at a place of worship with a similar belief I dont see a problem with it.
Same way if some one wants to own a morris minor, and wants to join a group of other people who own morris minors ever sunday or what ever.. theres not alot I can do about that.
Charitable status i suppose is an issue.. Not saying there arn;t issues with religion etc.
I just dont think an attitude of intollerance helps things.. the less people are intollerant the more im happy.. Even if it does make me sound like a hypocrit when i have a go about them ;)
