You are not the smallest tool of the creator - and nobody else on this earth .

Aww, nuts...

[Obvious Leo]

zero substance .

It's so embarrassing for the rest of us to admit that we too are people, when you talk about yourself like this. After all you're just another dumb shit who doesn't know what he's talking about.

By your polite and exemplary standards these are strong words indeed, doc. Your brand of theism has a refreshing honesty about it which most non-believers can readily respect so I guess with friends like manden who needs bloody enemies?

So... Manden and Bob... if you both think you're divinely inspired, but you don't think each other is, which of you is right?

Neither?
Attofishpie will know because he has the hot line to God. (one true).

Why not settle the question with pistols at dawn? With any luck the world will then have at least one fewer self-righteous arsehole to fear.

I have diagnosed atto's problem because I worked in Port Lincoln for a while some years ago. Never drink the local beer if you value your sanity. All SA beers are brewed in the toxic waste which has flowed down the Murray River through thousands of kilometres of agricultural land subjected to intensive loads of agri-chemicals. Even the fish finish up smarter than the humans.

Its unfortunate that you don't consider me intelligent. There is no contradiction between science and there being an intelligence (beyond our own consciousness) behind the makeup of reality.

I was making a general observation about the long-term effects of drinking the toxic cat's piss that South Australians have the cheek to call beer. I actually declare myself quite unqualified to make a specific evaluation of your intellectual prowess, atto, although I certainly question your judgement because of your appalling taste in matters of both beverage choice and delusional fantasies. How do you stand on the question of the red-nosed reindeer? Do you buy the Rudolph story or is the jury still out?

The beer i drink - Coopers Pale Ale permeates throughout bars in Victoria so i hardly think one should consider it 'cats piss'. VB is around many shit bars on tap in Adelaide, i think they allow homeless people come in and reinvigorate themselves on it.

Do tell, what is my fantasy?

No i truly believe he was a Nazi.

You'd have to agree that claiming to have experienced a Pauline epiphany in a shabby Port Lincoln pub while fully charged on toxic waste is a deeply personal event which others may be less inclined to accord the significance which you seem to think it deserves. The word "fantasy" is simply how we speak of such experiences in the common parlance.

What is the question?

Did all the other reindeer really just laugh and call him names or were they more tolerant of his unique affliction?

You need to adjust your skills in comprehension, who said i was 'fully charged'. I picked up a book from the library and walked to the pub, sat down with a beer, and God mode kicked in as i turned to page 3.

Sorry, i'm not intelligent enough to grasp the gist.

I had a very similar experience myself with the Port Lincoln beer but in my case I just fell off my bar stool and collapsed senseless to the floor.

Forgive me for not seeing any semblance of similarity in your experience there with mine. However, this is closer to yours, apart from the fact that beer never renders me unconscious. I returned to the pub on the day before i left PL. I drank copious amounts of beer while chin wagging with the locals, at one point i was walking up and down the bar (on the actual bar) without anyone questioning what i was doing.., i remember even bending down to pour a fella a beer...oh the good old days.

[manden]

Garbage .

[Obvious Leo]

.oh the good old days.

Certainly nostalgia isn't what it used to be but I very much doubt that the Port Lincoln bar etiquette would actually be acceptable in a more civilised parish of the realm. Having said that I was only working there for about 6 weeks but it was more than long enough to fall in love with the place.

[Obvious Leo]

Garbage .

What are your grounds for assuming that your enlightening moment was in some way superior to atto's? I know your mob do plenty of huffing and puffing about it but there's nothing particularly remarkable about German beer and listening to a Kraut bang on about its virtues would surely have to be one of the most stultifying and boring experiences which a man could be expected to endure.
