The horror of Sept. 11th, 2001

But I don't think much about you at all, Finn!

Apart from the fact that you have contributed to making this thread a rather ugly place today ....

If that's all you've learned, you still have light years to go, T2L.

Lies, lies and more lies, Brandon, you sick piece of ****! You bring enormous disrespect upon those who died in 9-11 by continuing with these horrid lies.

Oh, neat response. Simplifies the whole tricky proccess of ignoring one another. Good job!

My sympathies to all those who died in the attacks of 11/9/2001 and their loved ones...

Ah yes, a corporate incubus on the back of a genuine tragedy. Ain't capitalism a wonderful thing ? ! ? ! ?

Yeah, pretty cruddy. What we saw of the ceremony at ground zero seemed quite dignified fortunately. GWB reading Abe Lincoln didn't quite gel (the texas drawl not matching my hollywood-flavoured expectations of how 'Honest Abe' would speak).

Apologies on behalf of Australia for Sam Stosur's apparent disregard for the high esteem in which we hold the ANZUS treaty.

Ya lost me there, Boss . . . but then, i don't pay much attention to tennis players.

The disciple Peter asks Jesus, "How many times must I forgive one who sins against me?"

Not seven times, Jesus tells him, but 77 — in the vernacular of the time, forever.

Actually the correct amount from Matthew 18:22 would be 70 times 7, which gives us 539.

No apology necessary. You were reacting to the callousness of a few posters. Yesterday was the anniversary of the deaths of innocent victims.

Who' s counting, really Sturgis?

You do get the point, don't you?

7 X 70 = 539 does it? And you used to teach science. I've just got a lowly maths O level, but I make it 490.

If I hadn't made the correction another most likely would have. That should be apparent just from the general nature of this thread. I wasn't launching it as a reproach, simply making a correction.

It was a carrot dangle, Izzy. *grins*

Hopefully we can see a few more of Sturgis' 'corrections' soon.

My point was, the whole Islam versus Christian theme. Trouble is, Christ's teachings have so little to do with what is being tabled today as His work.

I think you make some very good points, unfortunately there are those who get too tied up in the minutiae to see that.

I'm tired of it, Izzy. Been on boards like this for over a decade. Like to check in now only occasionally to see who is shilling for whom. Interesting to see how things and people pan out over the years.
