I have a passing interest in the concept of localised paganism, largely on the basis it seems to largely have been about having great community parties (drinking, drugging, nudity, sex and feasting seem). Problem I think with religion is that its all very serious and pays little attention to joy. Its all very po-faced and forbidding this and that. I think I might have inadvertently practiced that myself.

If it was a game of football, Christianity would annihilate Islam. Ronaldo, Messi, et al. vs salah, mahrez and a few others.

In 1972, a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to Cairo where a fuse was lit on final approach. Shortly after landing, it was blown up by Muslim males. 4. In 1973, a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome with 33 people killed when it was attacked with grenades by Muslim males. 5. In 1979, the United States Embassy in Iran was taken over by Muslim males. 6. During the 1980s, a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by Muslim males. 7. In 1983, the United States Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by Muslim males. 8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked, and a 70-year-old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by Muslim males. 9. In 1985, TWA Flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a United States Navy diver who was trying to rescue passengers was murdered by Muslim males. 10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by Muslim males. 11. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed for the first time by Muslim males. 12. In 1998, the United States and British embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by Muslim males. 13. On 09/11/01, four airliners were hijacked. Two of the planes were used as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers. One plane crashed into the United States Pentagon, and the other plane was diverted and crashed by the passengers. Thousands of people were killed by Muslim males. 14. In 2002, the British fought a war in Afghanistan against Muslim males. 15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by you guessed it a Muslim male. (Plus two other British journalists who had just recently been beheaded.) 16. In 2013, the Boston Marathon bombing resulted in four innocent people, including a child, being killed and 264 other people injured by Muslim males. No, I really do not see a pattern here to justify profiling. Do you? So, to ensure we British never offend anyone particularly fanatics intent on killing us airport security screeners will no long be allowed to profile certain people. So, ask yourself: "Just how stupid are we?!?!" but in all that time the armies of the Christian West have never hurt anybody...

Rule 101 if it doesn't fit to scientific rationalism and methodology, its not true. If it does, its probably not entirely true. The objective truth is, as it turns out a by product of western linguistics. Its interesting that Eastern Philosophy doesn't have this problem, as it tends to posit truth as something experienced, rather than something objective. Exactly! Science doesn't focus in truth but in evidence! Truth becomes dogma in a manichaeist world and it's where irrationality begins. Edited by Portuguese (27 Jun 2017 1.29pm)

Just ask Timothy McVeigh and those nice Catholic boys from the IRA.
