So, you are a Christian then? That would explain your intolerance of any other religious groups and practices of their followers....

<roflmao>

Sweeping statement there. Is your religion keeping antiquated pieces of aerospace junk flying?

In a thread thats comprised almost entirely of sweeping statements, insensitivity, bigotry & prejudice towards faiths and their followers, that's the one that's objectionable?

Incredible.

Nope. Firstly it's not junk, and secondly no-one tells me to support it, or how I may or may not do so, and I don't attempt to dissaude people from supporting other aircraft and brand them evil for doing so!

Similarly, it does not involve denying contraception. It does not condone landing on foreign soils and executing natives who won't swear on the bible, and nor descending on Asia in times of famine and offering food for anyone on the condition they convert their faith. It does not systematically take over or destroy Pagan churches, nor use some of their religious beliefs and ceremonies as it's own... but hey, ho...

It can't hit the runway at Port Stanley either.

Really? I guess it must have been a bloody large mole that put the hole right on the centreline?

BTW - the H16 engine was regarded as junk fit only for use as a boat anchor. :-)

Hope you are not displaying intolerence because someone doesn't agree with you!

Nope, I was simply coming out with a similarly childish and unnecessary dig as yours... :-P

Give me the V16 any day. :-)

My dig was also inaccurate, much like your original one. Still, we all get carried away at times by making sweeping generalisations. No offence intended. It's just that my ex wife was having an affair with one of the people who flew your plane when it was still in RAF service. There, I have unburdened myself. <beer>

So the cheap shots are flying. From Norbert.

I made a cheap shot (seek help) and publicly apologized. I wonder if you are sufficiently mature to make an apology or two in your own right.

We shall see.

I presume you did not see the other cheap shot, or are once more choosing to single me out in this, presumably because I'm the only person here brave enough to state that I do not have any religious beliefs, a faith, or anything like that and I fail to see what good they are to anyone? However, I have always maintained that I respect anyone's entitlement to believe in whatever they choose, and follow whatever path in life they see fit. If I do not understand, that is my concern, not theirs. One thing is certain though, I do not see fit to describe people as idiots simply because they behave in a manner that they see fit, for reasons that aren't necessarily consistent with the teachings or their beliefs. If they want to do so, so what? The only idiots are the ones who use their interpretation of their beliefs as an excuse for acts of terrorism, genocide and the like.
