Probably, depends on how high you set your expectations of your EC tho.

That's what you call consistency and the keeping of the rules, all adds to the immersion.

Since when did making profit or even large bonuses become evil? There can be corruption anywhere, why should I be penalized from other peoples wrong choices? That makes no sense. Aren't bonuses are form of motivation?? This reads like a rant thread.

LDS, Objectivism and the John Birch Society
dorave replied to prisonchaplain's topic in General Discussion
The Book of Mormon, everything regarding your questions comes from there for us.. from America the promised land/new Jerusalem, tilling the land equals prosperity, the Secret Combinations n govt takeovers, the caution of govt, corruption, the fall of nations and wiping out of nations, wars, liberty, bearing arms, to the prophecies of our day. It all comes from there. -
Avatar imo is Cameron's liberal attepmt at demonizing Capitalism and consrvatives. That there is no god as we know it, only the planet, which is an uber physical god, and we must serve it. It teaches collective salvation not individual salvation thru the natives, so this is far from LDS doctorine and some of their religious practices in the film even appear Esoteric. Avatar is just a global warming (the Earth is God) promoting piece of indoctrination. Avartar is wack garbage.

Even mods need to abide by rules. He can mod himself.

Shouldn't the posts like this (over the last couple pages) in the thread be modded?

No.

Funny how People dismiss opinions when Hitler and Nazism are used as examples in the modern day, its like bagging someone who believes in Santa Claus, but unlike Santa Claus, Hitler was real. And nobody is to say Hitler cannot happen today or futures times.

Incorrect. ....that's actually his Dad.

But you did the same thing to Glenn. Glenn has aways told viewers to go out and research his fact finding, doing your own homework, gathering the clips and quotes for yourself and coming to your own conclusion.
-
Glenn has admitted time and time again about his imperfections, that he has been a jerk in the past, and that he can still have a tendancy to be one. Doesn't mean he is wrong, or even dishonest tho.
-
Because you're a statistician, you claim to know Beck is being dishonest, and then you back up your claim by saying 'believe me' ...all because you're a statistician? ha! Glenn would never tell his viewers the truth stops with him and say 'believe me'.
-
I never said he speaks for God or alluded to. I just feel, as was with Columbus discovering America or the Protestant Reformers in the 16th Century - the lord had a hand in their work, to further his.
-
But who has ratings and says 'pray to god for help' on TV? If 'being a clown' using extreme speech is a TV ratings model for journos or anchors - then it would be standard and less of a gimmick, however, I don't think nobody else could do it. Out of all the talented journos and TV anchors, a clown beats them all. No, there is something more to Glenn Beck than just his succesful ratings pull. You are also making an assumption on his opinion.
-
Aside from being a member, he is doing some things on modern day TV, that I would've thought impossible. So, thoughts? Is the Lords hand behind Glenn Beck literally? I can't help but feel that way. What he has accomplished is unheard of - and for someone daily criticized for being a dummy, he has Entertainment industry gurus scratching their heads at his rise to fame. Yes, he can be goofy, yes, he can be over-the-top, but his message and direction of his message is bang on.

Indeed, it can collapse the US too tho, in a way where the USA and China switch hats, and we all become feeder nations to China's increasing middleclass.
-
I believe when China build a big enough middleclass it'll pull the plug on buying US debt n' investments and shift much more towards it's own domestic economy. This will be dire for the West.

Oh please... such poor arguments ...it's obvious you have a huge bias towards McCartney anyway, conntinually attempting to connect celeb status with yourself is humourous ..esp. when it is to a group of muscians who made music often dedicated to a man who held veiws in Luciferianism, taught Hedonism and practised esoteric activities. "The cover of the Sergeant Pepper's Album by the Beatles features Aleister Crowley amidst, according to the group, "people we like and admire" (Hit Parade, Oct. 1976, p.14). The Beatles took Crowley's teachings rather seriously. John Lennon, in an interview with Playboy magazine, states the "whole idea of the Beatles" was Crowley's essential "Do what thou wilt". "The whole Beatle idea was to do what you want, right? To take your own responsibility, do what you want and try not to harm other people, right? DO WHAT THOU WILT, as long as it doesn't hurt somebody. . ." ("The Playboy Interviews with John Lennon and Yoko Ono", by David Sheff and G. Barry Golson, p. 61)"

Its fine to make whatever statement he wanted. Nobody cares that he said what he did, its just that he did so in the White House, recieving an award ...you obviously missed the point. I guess you wouldn't mind the WH becoming a place for people to publicly make cheapshot jokes at former presidents. is disrespectful.
-
It's not about the person tho, it's the office, McCartney's off base because he chose to joke in the wrong place and ocassion, Dumb. It's like mocking a former minister in a church on a Sabbath day. It's just disrespectful to the office.
-
It's not the physical contact I was referring to, it's the ideology.
-
Did they make mention of the influence Aleister Crowley had on them?
