Re: Rev Dr John Polkinghorne?

To further hack's points, I'll add that Polkinghorne's viewpoints demonstrate that backwards-thinking thing that so many of these buggers display, and which is rooted in the incredibly arrogant and primitive (but entirely understandable, given the ape-brain we carry around in our skulls) notion that...

Where's a Bombers supporter when you need (to gloat at) one?

Re: Richard Dawkins: "I will arrest Pope Benedict XVI"

Vatican City is not recognised as a state by the UN. Nor, following from that, is the Pope recognised as a Head of State by the UN (do you think Geoffrey Robertson would be pursuing the course he is if this was the case? If you do, then stop being stupid.) The ICC, then, also doesn't and will not (...

Re: Richard Dawkins: "I will arrest Pope Benedict XVI"

Well that settles it. If the ICC won't recognise him, he's out of the cricket world cup. Good riddance too! :biggrin: Barely gets a 'heh' out of me. Sorry. Might have worked if you'd taken a line like "no-one wants a man in a dress playing international cricket" or some such... nah, I can't actuall...

Re: Richard Dawkins: "I will arrest Pope Benedict XVI"

Meh, "diplomatic immunity" will be invoked. He's technically head of the Vatican State, so this will fall flat on its face. I thought the Dawk would know better. Or is this just grandstanding? He isn't, a head of state, though. That's partially what all this rests on. http://www.thedailybeast.com/b...

Re: The Aussie Rules thread

That last high tackle was a bit of a bugger. Legs aren't supposed to bend like that.

Re: The Aussie Rules thread

Holy shit, that was a close game. It wasn't skill that got the Pies over the line (by 1 point! and about an inch!), just sheer bloody stubbornness.
