Could you expand on this please?

I'm not sure if linking to a white supremacist site is against the terms of this site. Let's find out shall we?

Yes I have Dick, I've even gone so far as to ask for clarification if that answer was wrong. My answer is straight forward, you have the option to reject it and explain why or continue to babble on about who mentioned what.

Didn't you get blamed for that as well? If not I think you should be :cool:

Yeah I know, I thought it would be interesting to know if he was actually aware the condition existed but I got another trite, evasive response.

You did. You said that they weren't the only ones who wanted to ban guns. I see that you agree with the NRA's stance on gun control, which funnily enough I'm assuming includes their response to the government's gun control proposals. If this is actually not the case and you disagree with the...

Good grief Dick, you are hard work. My point is, is that the current administration's proposals are NOT accurately described as "they want to ban guns". By describing it as such, you are twisting what is being proposed. No Dick, the insult stems from a frustration of you not understanding what...

Another jump to an absolute. Have you ever heard of a psychological condition called Black and White thinking?

You mentioned the NRA's cause, which is to reject the current administration's gun control proposals. I think it disingenuous to pretend that is not what you are talking about.

Again you're jumping to absolutes, a classic example of the slippery slope fallacy. You interpret the current administration's gun control proposals as a total ban. This is a simple fabrication. My response isn't even a stand for or against gun control but for proposals not to be twisted into...

People on programming boards are generally interested in logic which is why this argument isn't gaining any traction for you. Your argument is an example of the slippery slope fallacy. Link You have zero proof that your assertion will inevitably occur but there is ample proof that it may not...

I'm sorry to hear this. I remember talking with a business owner over the firing of a colleague who responded to my concern with the phrase: "You shouldn't worry about it, it's nothing personal, just business". In that moment I realized that he had relinquished all control of his day to day...

As Froth says, if you're wishing to build any sense of credibility, the links you post have to have something to do with your claims. That link talks about materials dated to Medieval times. :confused:

Both your and Froth's dedication to Biblical history far outpasses mine. I was genuinely looking forward to your response to: How do I put this gently? You live under the impression that you are not responsible for statements like this. That God sets the rules and by complying to the Absolute...

As there was no response to this, perhaps I can take it a different direction? If one believes, rightly or wrongly, of an out of place intelligence in our line of history, why the jump to divinity? The concept of a ruling deity is actually quite imaginative why the lack of alternative...

Well the "give me or else" part will have to come in at some point, if that is what will happen, I just didn't think it wise to come in at the beginning. Where's Mr Warnock? He used to be a manager, so did Col I think.

I agree Spike, I wasn't convinced about the give me or else approach as that is a good way of allowing the manager to escape. Definitely care is required. A distaste for commuting is not an argument. An offer of a full-time position is also tricky as it's difficult to dodge a sense of...

Good news, the policy hasn't been set in stone yet. Also good news, this means he's malleable. I would say unfortunately so, as he has been coerced to raise this situation by his subordinates. Perhaps subtly prick his pride by describing your current arrangement as a longstanding, successful...

You can't please all of the people, all of the time. From an outsider's point of view, holding a referendum on the dissolution of a 300 year old union is an astonishing submission to democracy. It's difficult to understand any cynicism placed on this opportunity from this side of the water.

I was taking a spare 10 minutes to catch up with this thread and found this line to be the most entertaining. :D
