The Locker Room

I was watching a programme this morning about a debate on whether Mother Teresa actually deserved her sainthood and it got me thinking.............. Whilst I accept that she was a very holy woman and did much for the sick and dying in the name of Jesus Christ, her faith on the other hand Imo probably caused much of that child abandonment, sickness and death in the world as she was anti abortion and and anti contraception. Was her allegiance to the Vatican and her faith much greater than her humanity to those she claimed she cared for? Did she really deserve her Sainthood ? Mac 662009-10-18 14:50:40

A man dies and goes to heaven. At the Pearly Gates he is met and shown round. ''Anything you fancy doing?'' He is asked. '' What d'you mean? he replies. ''Well this is Heaven you can do anything you've ever dreamed of'' ''Oh'' he says, ''Well I always wanted to own a huge motorcycle and to just cruise round on it.'' ''Fine '' says the Angel, ''Just round that corner is a Motorcycle shop. The guy always dreamed of owning one. Go see him, he'll sort it out.'' The man finds the motorcycle shop and looks at all the bikes and sits on a huge Harley. The Shop owner comes over and says, ''Take if for a little test ride''. ''I haven't got a licence''. ''That's not a problem…

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8303983.stm Is this a vital tool in protecting us against determined andf clever terrorists or is it a serious abuse of privacy? I want to know if it can detect explosives hidden internally. And will children now be used as mules? We know terrorisst don't baulk at using children to achieve their evil. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/8313335.stm

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8315616.stm Groups suchs as the BNP using military symbols,and images such as the spitfire, and the army to promote their values. General Mike Jackson says "The BNP is claiming that it has a better relationship with the armed forces than the other political parties". Extremists sinking to a new low?. Is the MOD over reacting?. Or is it being brought up to draw attension from something else?

Well the title says it all really. I'm not really sure why I decided to make fudge at 1:30 but hey, I just thought id share that with you all.

Living in rented accomodation I am limited to what maintenance/decoration I can do to my flat as per contract.

Wow, cant believe he actually won the world championship.. and hats off to him today for an absolutely inspired drive! He was so pumped up on the team radio you could really tell he was giving it his all today. Some of his overtaking was real nail biting stuff.. :smiley_notworthy: Excellent race...I especially liked the fuel hose breaking off and setting fire to the ferrari on its way up the pit lane! What a shame they are getting rid of refuelling next year...

Does anyone know if this forum is compatible with the Tapatalk iPhone app? If not will there be any future plans for it?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1221325/Expenses-police-probe-breach-rights-warn-Labour-MPs.html Some MP's have reached the bottom of the barrel, I always believed Frank Field was one of the 'better' MP's, but many appear to have a death wish. If they try to prevent the Police investigating their crooked dealings their image will really have reached 'rock bottom'.

http://www.englishdefenceleague.org/ They claim to be a non-facist organisation that opposes sharia law, fundamentalist Islam and the Islamification of the UK. Facist thugs or Freedom fighters? What do you think? I personally think they are a bit of both. Some members I am sure are quite intelligent and genuinely oppose sharia and fundamentalists, but I fear most are simply young men who are angry at the Muslim community for various reasons and only wish to incite anger and hatred towards Muslims.

Hopefully some of you seen this, cos apparently it didn't make the main schedule. It's basically about muyrderers who then go on TV and appeal for their victims. Like Shannon Matthews. I found it quite interesting. Looks quite exciting being in CID!

:lol: :lol: She was Super grandma!!

.....well, the BNP look likely to accept anybody, regardless of their race. They're being forced into it, but no matter why they're doing it, they're going to have to do it. I wonder how many black people would join............because they have an opportunity........... .....if a massive number of black, or VEMs joined, they could change the BNP from the inside. And there would be little anybody could do about it.
