hey, last nite in one of my restless moments i came across a religions posting forum on the bbc website that is devided into catagorys for religion, eg pagan site, muslim site etc. all i seemed to find was a religious bashing shop!!! On the Pagan site u had christians riling up all the pagans, on the christian site u had athiests riling up all the christians and on the muslim site everyone was riling up the muslims!! but the muslims wernt helping it, on one posting ppl kept coming on claiming they were 'extremists' and the next 80 posts that followed was ppl trying to work out how extreme extremists were. also both christians and muslims are definately stuck in their ways. this wasn't a discussion board. a discussion would actulaly involve ppl taking in other ppls points. this was an argument board. the only ppl that actulally seemed interested in the dicussion of actaul religion came from the pagan board (tho i didnt look at the eastern religion one). the muslims and christians were too entrenched in their ways and bashing eachother even to be able to discuss nething in an open minded way. it was all very sad. it doesnt really bode well for the future. doesnt neone have ne tolerance nemore?
neway, ive been spreading tons of time reading recently. i was thinking, will reading lots and lots of stuff make u more clever? or will u get up forgetting it or just know lots of pointless facts about stuff? i mean, is it better to read lots or to socialist more? cos both ways u are gonna find out more stuff and at least with socailising u are gonna learn more social skills.... ok.. i dont know where i am going with this... but im worried neway...
hungry. cya!
ps oh yeah, just got a postcard!! thans Pau-Lynn and John!! and i loved what u did there!! tho i had to get my sister in to remind me of the incubus lyrics!! that was really cool! thanx. yeah, i would love to be there! but hey, ill be back one day!! thanx for thinking of me. xxx
