You know - this would be a bad day for fatalists to watch the news.
Oklahoma on fire
Texas on Fire
California under water
West Virginia - earth is collapsing
New York - Planes falling into the River
and possible tornados in Georgia and Alabama.
The end is near.....
Anyone want to join the pool on when Pat Robertson will wiegh in on all of this?

How come all Christians are assumed to be mental clones of Pat Robertson, while all Democrats aren't automatically assumed to agree with Al Sharpton?

I don't know about that but I do see part of her issue with you being because you're a formidable opponent of hers/her statements. You respond to some of her statements.
Most liberals here just don't like that one bit.
But my son did call last night and told me a tornado had touched down in Discovery Bay [the Delta area of CA]
So you're not the only one making 'crackling' noises.

LOL Linda, right now I'm mad at somebody in California so all thats just a by-product of the vervzed up energy being sent out.
-(ssshh! works for me, ok? If kraft can have her delusions, so can I!)
On a serious note ref: E el fenix bird - I've told her time and again she is no match for me. Light years ahead of her!! She should have stopped at please free free to...and accepted my decline to play along with it any further.
You yourself are a formidable opponent in these cat debates. And mostly all by yourself on these boards, Linda. And youve been doing it for years...I admire and respect your resolve to not be run off by it.
But I'm really not the one to get so mean, but if a little phillie thinks they can push me around. It's time to show the stuff. I've been around the track way too many times for this kid and its already branded on my azz "made and produced in ny". Sometimes I really dont think she realizes that when she's trying to kick it here.

Yep - it's 2006 New Years resolution already in play on my part....listing on my ebay sellers assistant.

oh good for you, Linda!! Nows the time to do it. Some are of the consensus Jan and Feb the best months for selling. I'm trying to make up my mind for good whether I wish to continue with Ebay or do something else. As you know, leaning toward scoot'in out of it...but then I look at all this stuff here that was bought expressly for resale since I like going to estate sales and stuff. Hopefully I will make the right decision with it.

::How come all Christians are assumed to be mental clones of Pat Robertson::
That was a big leap. Where did anyone say anything about "all Christians"?
I said fatalists. Is that a new term chistians I didn't know about?

Well...have a HUGE garage sale so others will pay you more than then might on ebay for a lot of your items. Then THEY can do all the hard work...while you find something more enjoyable to do.

"fatalists" And here I thought she meant those on the left. They're the 'doom and gloom club'...and all their previous concerns haven't happened.
Course, there are Christians fatalists on the left. Never thought of that.

Well I don't know about fatalist but am a Christian and am out watering my yard as I am in North Central Texas with fires to north and south of me west and east. SO if the fires get me so be it but am watering what good that will do as I live on outskirts of town with huge brushy pasture due west. SO we still need that rain any west coasters can pack up and send this way.
Fires wiped out a town totally yesterday just north of me about 68 miles and another town gone south west of me last week about 90 miles. We are a tinder box waiting to go off I am thinking.
So if that makes me a fatalist nope I don't think so cause I don't think thw world is ending.

I honest and truly don't get it. Who are the "some" and what man are they threatened by? Clarification please.

All Christians are certainly not clones of Pat Robertson but around here, most Democrats are assumed to agree with Al Sharpton. Besides fenix, I may be the most conservative Democrat around here, but I'd love to have a nickel for everytime I've personally gotten responses like "just like a lefty", or "you lefties", or other such nonesense. Nuthin' could be further from the truth.
fenix, everybody knows Christians aren't fatalists, if they were, they wouldn't think gays could "cure" themselves by turning to Jeeeeezus-ah.

profe, those lefties who are always bringing up those three and what they've said....and those who bring up Fox News etc. - NOW even before they've made a statement.

irked - Gosh....that sure sounds very serious. Is there any way at all you could pay someone to come in and bush-hog that dry grass that surrounds you? If at all possible I'd sure consider doing just that....on someone else's property or not.

Oh good grief - it was a f*cking joke.
Now I am "a leftie lady" because I watch Fox? Got to love that one.
Get over it Linda. Grow a sense of humor. And while you are at it, try to attain some guts. At least when I have a conflict with someone I have the fortitude call them by name. You hide behind this ridiculous childish "Leftie Ladies" label that has just enough elastiscity that when you are confronted on it directly allows you to back off saying "well I was not talking about you directly".

Irked - I was talking more of the embodiment of everything this morning on the news. Tthere was a ten minute section where they started with the fires, mentioned the tornado warnings, went to flood coverage wihich was interupted with the mine explosion coverage which was then interupted with news of the plane crashing into the Hudson. I pictured one of those pics of the old crazy guy on the street carrying a "The End Is Near" signs and got a giggle out of those that would look at the embodiment of it all and think he might be right.
Despite the negative twist that was placed on it by others that think they can read my mind. I was just having a little fun.
I hope all remains calm in your section and that you and yours stay safe.

Maybe we can get this thread back on course? The weather has been strange around here, too. Almost the entire month of December was unreasonably cold - 20's during the day, the teens or single digits at night and lots of snow. Then, the last days of December we were having temps way above normal with rain, rain, rain. It's weird.
irked
I hope everything is okay for you in your area. Fire can be terrifying! I'd gladly send the rain we're having your way if I knew how.

The Reverend Colin, of the Church of Here & Now is forgiving sins and issuing certificates for your entrance into heaven, for the minor donation of $5000.00 U.S.
The end is near, you sinning heathens.
This may be your only hope for salvation. Shell the funds out now or burn in Hell.

I'm a Rev too...case of Gunness and you're through them pearly gates!
Reminds me of a Joke...a Baptist, A Mormon and a Mexican, all carpenters, all died in a car crash and showed up together at Heaven's gate. San Pedro came out and said "hey, you guys are all carpenters, right?" All the recently arrived contractors nodded their heads. "The old pearly gates are getting a bit shabby after all these years, how much would you guys charge me for a refurb?, what about you?", he says to the Mexican. The Mexican rubs his chin and mutters to himself "I can get the lumber from the cull pile at the lumber yard for cost, then I'll get cousins Beto and Lupe to help me for beer, piece of cake". "I can do it for 600 dollars", he says to San Pedro. "Pretty reasonable, what about you?", he says to the Baptist. "Well, there are permits to consider, and inspections, and everything will need to be brought up to code, and I'll probably have to special order those gargoyles up there along the parapet, but since it's for God Awlmighty, $1200", says the Baptist. "Huh", says Saint Peter, "Getting kind of costly there, what about you?" He says to the Mormon. The Mormon doesn't skip a beat. "1800.00 dollars" he says without batting an eye. "Whoa", says San Pedro, "Where did you come up with that??, I don't think the old man's gonna go for that one" "It's easy, here's the deal", says the Mormon....
"$600 for you, $600 for me, and we sub it out to the Mexican!"

That's why you have to charge so much!
I've considered applying for sainthood, but the 50 dollar sainthood test fee would mean I'd have to get a bottle of single barrel bourbon in addition to the Guinness for services rendered...too much for the traffic to bear around here.

Prof,
Sainthood was bestowed upon me because of my exemplary behavior to my fellow man and by the many women I satisfied through out my life.
It cost me nothing.
Remember (one of) my motto(s):
“I'm not here for a long time. I'm here for the good time."
Amen,
Reverend Colin http://www.reverendcolin.com

I have the perfect cure for all doomsdayer --Stop watching the news and go rent some Disney movies instead.
