Thanks River...I do understand.

It's just that, reading through this thread, so many people gave their different ideas regarding the original's post (question). Why then, judging by your criteria, was this thread allowed to grow this large?

All I did was actually answering her/his question, not by giving my opinion but by the words Jesus used. I would like to think I was embellishing Paulo's input earlier on in this thread.

You seem to agree with me in that their are so many different opinions/ideas regarding politics and religion. That's my point. We all see things differently...is it wrong? People agree and disagree on almost anything in this world, why is politics or religion singled out?

POLITICS:

There is a politics forum on this board, although there is a condition attached; "...A place for politics DIRECTLY related to Archive topics...".

What does this mean? Are you referring to politics:

a) when someone raise a political question (general government politics) on a threat and become a topic for discussion; or

b) when someone raise a raise a political question (politics regarding castration) as a topic.

RELIGION:

Absolute no, no...although we ALL are influenced by religion in many forms. Our every day lives are dictated by our believes. Why are we afraid to share our thoughts. For me, it's interesting to see what people believe. It makes me understand humanity, and why we are the way we are. I assure you River, there are hundreds of eunuchs here where religion played a big role in their decision to modify their bodies.

As eunuch brothers here we should not be scared to ask a question that bother us...scared because our "greater ones" do not like the subject. But as someone who also help keeping this board active I will accept that this is not my home as well, but the ones who created it.

Anyway, I will not dare raising religious questions, so long as you know that my answer to the original poster's question was relevant, just as all those who were allowed to answer the poster's question.

I believe you live in Hawaii right? You are so fortunate, I always wanted to visit the home of Thomas Magnum. I hope you have a blessed week further.

Keep in mind this thread was started 10 years ago. We stopped the political board 3 years ago.

Have a good day.

Please excuse mu dumb question...

I used to read the "Aterix and Obelix" comic books many years ago. Are there still Vikings around? Where do they live?

I once thought they were Scottish people...or their ancestors.

Vikings originated in Norway/Denmark and invaded Scotland/England more or less! I loved Asterix too!!

Paolo you are right, Jesus talked about FREE stuff. without being political because we don't do that anymore, but I think Jesus, not ours the other one would be a democrat, I know what our Jesus is.

Before the thread is locked (I know it's coming), I doubt the original Jesus would sit on either side of the current aisle. They're all a bunch of bottom feeders whose only interest is getting re-elected until they can land a cushy lobbying job.

". BS. Being a mod apparently comes with perks. Remind everyone we're not political but manage to get your own little comments in. Nothing personal, just my observation.

Of course moderators have perks. They own/run this site. It is theirs to set guidelines and rules as they see fit. If they chose they could shut it all down and that would be that. The site is open to the public and free to use. That isn't the same as a street corner where you can discuss whatever you want whenever you want (assuming you aren't living in a dictatorship). Free speech is something that can't be censored by the Government. This is a privately owned location on the Internet.

I am not a moderator here at EA and have no affiliation other than as a regular user.

I think what Riverwind is getting at is that "we" don't want to read about each others' religious views here, any more than we do their political views.

There's a difference between clinical, academic points (like the Nicea or Thomas statements) and going into a dissertation as to what you faithfully believe.

Well you guys should love the NOT Conan, NOT Kull works of Robert E. Howard.

He wrote short stories of various periods including, "The Great Game", Roman occupation of Britain, Vikings, and more.

For his westerns, look up the Vultures of Wapleton.

Howard's premise was the "civilized" barbarian confronting an "uncivilized" allegedly civilized enemy. Such as Rome.

I have a whole lawyers bookcase shelf of those Robert E. Howard stories. No Conan, or Kull needed.

He has an amazing bio too. A great student of history.

Solomon Kane the movie sucked. The stories are good stuff.

And you have the final word on politics, the thread however will stay open for the time being. Read Paolo's post.

And have a great day.
