What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Stupidity
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

That looks like one I won't be committing :hehe:
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Cilantro is the Spanish word for coriander, also deriving from coriandrum. It is the common term in North America for coriander leaves, due to their extensive use in Mexican cuisine.
I grew up in southern california where mexican food is everywhere. It is called cilantro, it will always be called cilantro by me :{D
Burn the heretic. It's nothing personal, you understand. But burn her! A LOT!
It's "coriander".
Get over it.

:lay:
They're "spring onions".
Get over it.

I read or heard a one-liner many years ago that basically said all off the so-called "7 deadly sins" stem from fear, and are merely different reactions to it.
Thinking about it at length, this made more and more sense, until I wrote a short play about it (for a writing contest) - now, unfortunately lost to a fatal disk crash.
So all of the so-called "8 deadly sins" are just fear, in various guises.

Cilantro. For the leaves. Coriander for the seeds.

The Eighth Deadly Sin is driving under the speed limit on the motorway.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I don't mind people who drive slower. I only drive an average of 5 to 10 miles over myself. I don't even get upset if I get cut off.

What I do find maddening is people cutting me off to drive under the speed limit. :irate:

I have coriander growing on my kitchen windowsill.
If you have a problem with that, take it up with Tesco.
