Actually Snoop&#039;s first album is one of my top five albums and you are right I have the Godfather Trilogy as well all 6 seasons of the Sopranos.  But my favorite series of all time by far has to be &quot;The Wire.&quot;

		<description><![CDATA[Yes Sara,

But not all Christians are Catholics are they. A.Theist is ignorant of what Christians period maybe this is why he/she although I&#039;m betting its a he gets the reactions he gets from Christians. I did not mean to have the disscusion go the way it did but once he started running Christianity down thats what happend I&#039;ll be if he ever talks about religion to anyone who does not share his belief he has similar results which is why he became so defensive in the first place. I&#039;m not justifing Christains who try to throw their beliefs into others faces I think that all should have the choice to make up their own minds. But what ever keeps his core together guess this is another one of those things not to talk about alone with racism and politics. Topics I like to talk about ..........

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks - again - for understanding. I would kill for tons more staff, but have to work within finances, just got a *great* part time video/photographer, he literallt does the work of 3 people so its great addition. Hopefully more in 2011.

On a non related note, I think I may have double approved some comments, so if anyone sees a comment twice, thats my error. Sorry!

		<description><![CDATA[Like I said the other day I have no complaints about your service.

I have complaints about individuals who seek to stifle free speech about FACTUAL events because they don&#039;t shine so well on either themselves or the particular organization they represent.

I personally wish that the hard hitting papers of the UK (i.e. Daily Mail, The Sun, The Mirror etc.) who hold back no punches operated in Bermuda.  The powers that seek to stifle free speech will beg for the RG and Bernews to return.  I don&#039;t say the BDA Sun as they have long since censored posts that didn&#039;t jive well to their pay masters.  

Anyways well done Bernews and with all this advertising maybe it is time to up the human resources as a xmas present to yourself.

Happy holidays]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No you&#039;re wrong I don&#039;t see his point.

Robbing the &quot;coffers&quot; is akin to robbing the same people that the 40 Thieves stole from.  Those people would be us the, people.  You act like when EB plunders the &quot;coffers&quot; that he does so in a Robin Hood type fashion by giving it back to the disadvantaged within Bermuda.

Stealing is stealing no matter how hard you try and justify such actions.  

EB is exactly the same as the 40 Thieves except with darker skin.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[EB is as crooked as the 40 thieves and should be tried and punished, however EB had a point when he said it isn&#039;t good enough to say let&#039;s forgive and forget the many years that the old power brokers spent dividing up the country while ensuring that the real money and land was placed in the right hands. EB was correct when he sadi that old money bags Bermuda needed to give some back ( reparations ) and then we can play nicely in the same sand box..

This could explain why EB felt and still feels he had a right to plunder the nations coffers and as misguided as that is, you can kinda see his point..

Just sayin..]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Uncle Elvis thank you. As I said, I have no problem with people believing in Christ and the Christian God. But they almost always have a problem with me not believing. Funny, since they already know what its like not to believe because they don&#039;t believe in the other 2,999 estimated God&#039;s that various humans believe in. I just take it one God further. Truth is NOBODY KNOWS where we came from. 

Their belief is nothing more than an accident of thier birth. If they were born in India they&#039;d believe in a Hindu God. In western Africa it would be the Ju-Ju up the mountain. Again, I have no problem with that. Please just respect my option to believe in evolution. I&#039;m not against creationism - we had to come from somewhere. I just don&#039;t believe its how the Bible said. 

To the other guy - check your scriptures - there is a talking snake. Its in the Garden of Eden. Saying I was confusing it with Harry Potter is ridiculous in the extreme - but totally expected of a Christian who has someone disagree with him.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Its based on a talking snake for goodness sake!!!&quot;

That is not true your thinking of another story Harry Potter maybe? You have your belief or non belief if you will. Not trying to convert you but have a read of the Bible and you will see many thing in Revelations that might atleast change your veiw of the whole forgiveness thing. God was not that forgiving, Pilar of Salt, the passover, eden, the flood, even jugement day. Christ was forgiving but it a hole lot more than just saying your sorry it a heart thing. I guestioned his existance to once but science just can&#039;t explane such complex beings that we have on earth. After all the conditions even for atoms to combin have to be just right inorder to form compounds let alone us. The above comment I made earlier was kind of a tonge and cheek. I to believe Mr. Curtis should have some time to think about the wrong he has done but once he has served his time and hopfully seen his error and that what he did effected more that just himself I would let it go. After all if you had done it or any other crime that warrented alittle more than a harsh talking to would want people to hold it against you forever? Just saying..

LOL sorry I don&#039;t get your acronym &quot;nihilist&quot; Your might have more faith than me  Laughs out loud.....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Um.. just a point...

the two aren&#039;t really &quot;positions of faith&quot;....

One is defined by faith, the other has nothing to do with it.

Atheists generally don&#039;t have a problem with people&#039;s faiths until it is shoved in their faces... much like Andre allegedly stole, or, if I&#039;m being charitable, misspent OUR money, in the name of God. 

Can&#039;t you see how that might stick in the craw of someone who doesn&#039;t believe?

For many atheists, it&#039;s not &quot;faith God doesn&#039;t exist&quot;, it&#039;s just not something they think about. 
Like, how often do you make a sacrifice to Thor or Odin?
Never, right? Why? 

Because it&#039;s not something you think about. 

It&#039;s like that for many atheists.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sara. It doesn&#039;t bother me at all that they believe in God or Christ. But It obviously bothers them that I don&#039;t. This is the experience Athiests nearly always get. I&#039;m supposed to respect their right to religion, yet they don&#039;t respect my right to non religion. Thats because religious people expect to get things their way. They have an expectation of special treatment. Think about it. Andre sure did.

I believe in a higher power, and in existence beyond the grave - but not the way its written in the Bible thats all. The Bible was written when we didn&#039;t know where the sun went at night. When we thought the earth was flat. When we didn&#039;t know about dinosaurs.

It is an explanation for people who needed one. But its a very simplistic and fabricated explanation. Religion has been used to control people ever since. It should be banned.

Its based on a talking snake for goodness sake!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look this is a silly conversation.  It is very difficult to debate between an atheist and someone that believes in Christ.  They are both positions of faith.  Faith it exists and faith it does not.  People are entitled to believe in what they want and have many different reasons for those beliefs.  I never understood why it bothers atheists that people believe in god and vice versa.  I used to question the existence of God and then I realized there is no proof, that is why it&#039;s called faith.  Personally, I believe because I want to and my life got better when I did.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[CHRIST-MAS. Yes, that&#039;s the imaginary date of the birth of Jesus. Funny how he was born after people waited thousands of years, they all rejoiced, and then they pretty much ignored him for the next 30 years. Rather odd don&#039;t you think?]]></description>
