That may or may not be so, it is more likely more bs from others who
conspire to push their agendas.

I appreciate your suggetion, but at this time I don't see your reason
for it.

Hobba is not playing? Sure he is. He's a numbskull playing the role
of numbskull in these ngs. Read his rants and see that I have him
pegged.

Well, I have to agree, but nasty words in these ngs are not physical
punches.

Yes, that is so. There are slim pickings left here unsoiled.

But war is always afoot. The religious right claims that the devil
roams the world stirring up wickedness, the atheists swear to prevent
another Dark Age led by the religious. It behooves us all to
understand that if we do not defend ourselves others will oppress us.
Wasn't it the Meccanees who left it up to their God to save them and
he did not? Wasn't that what caused others to say, hey, forget about
turning the other cheek! If we don't fight back, we won't be alive to
fight back! I don't support Bush's preemptive strike against Iraq,
and we will have to pay the price for that (although it is safe to say
the Bush's won't), but the age of terrorism is upon us and we must do
all we can to survive it!

I could not bring myself to look at it, as it is a microcosm of the
whole picture. War is hell, even for the final victors. Falluja is
just one small area of a world enmeshed in violence. The Gods of War
are loosed at the drop of a sneer; the human race is not evolved yet
to the point where we can live in peace. There is no Utopia as yet.
It is a race to see whether the human race will survive its mad drive
to destroy the planet. I hope it does, at least for the time my
children are alive. After that, I won't care less if anyone blows up
the planet with everyone on it.
