Why do you care? I think it is daft and wouldn't come to a football ground in fancy dress or Christmas clobber, but I'm not "embarrassed" because of the poor dress sense of someone else I don't know that supports the same eleven men running around a field kicking a ball.

Why are you embarrassed by what someone else wears?

If such a "sense" existed, why has no-one ever won this $1 million prize? The challenge first started in 1964 and in the last 48 years no-one has been able to prove such claims and the prize fund has now reached $1 million. http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/1m-challenge.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sesamjLNHlU

We have more than 5 senses... As for the kind of "sense" the opening post describes, it is a nonsense and has never been proven in any kind of peer reviewed scientific experiment of note.

When I did it, Ramirez was 21 not 22 and Saints/Villa had the same average of 23.36

It is one of the stickies on the main forum... http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?24915-Libel-Reminder-Use-of-Main-Board-Rules-Useful-Links

"Tho shalt not be a Pedophile" not mentioned on the 10 commandments, yet "tho shalt not covet your neighbours Ox" is. Are these the morals of a deity we should respect? I think he has his priorities wrong on his "do not do" list don't you? Luckily Western law isn't tied by Biblical ramblings from ancient scripture and adapts over time. He also told Moses his list in a time of primitive communication which mean those in America wouldn't here of these commandments until the 1400's and Australia until the 1700's. Seems a callous and incompetent deity to me.

They may well be "scientists, engineers and mathematicians" in their professional lives, but if they believe in God then they are not applying their rationality. In their professional lives they require evidence, religion doesn't provide solid evidence. Hitler and Stalin both had moustaches, does that mean all people with moustaches are evil? Just because a godless regime does bad things, it doesn't mean atheism is bad. If you take current UK law, the Bible could be banned from publication for inciting... - genocide - infanticide - murder - rape - homophobia - sexism etc etc

False hope isn't healthy and can actually be dangerous. Again is it healthy to lead you life like that if there is no evidence to justify such a belief? Why can't that come from a secular community? It isn't unique to organised religion. Organised religions segregating into "communities" is what has caused alot of problems in world history. Wars breaking out over which ancient dogma to follow.

What positives can they get from religion, that they couldn't get as an atheist?

Straight jacket time...

He wasn't even that, there are many people that pre-date Jesus in the Middle East that claim to be the Messiah, come back from the dead, Virgin Birth, heal the sick etc etc The Jesus story certainly wasn't original and it "borrowed" from many other older stories. Yet, a huge % of the world still believe these 2,000 year old myths, it really is time the human race grew up from believing these bronze age Middle Eastern myths. It would be laughable if it didn't have such a negative impact on human history.

Yeah, because religion despite having no solid evidence hasn't had a huge negative on human history has it...!? Have you considered it might be a good thing to encourage rational thought, rather than believe in 2,000 year old bronze age myths?

Do you have any solid evidence for such claims?

That is no ordinary co-commentator. That is Jason Dodd! Orgasmic football?

I'd add to that; a settled back four of Fonte/Yoshida/Shaw/Clyne starting to gel as a unit.

He isn't a Mirror journalist, he is a Saints supporting Press Association journalist that goes to all of our pre match press conferences, lots of games and friendly with the media team at Saints. If there is anyone in the media you should trust about Saints news, it is Simon Peach.

It pays to ask nicely... Southampton FC ‏@officialsaints FULL TIME: Report and reaction to come on http://saintsfc.co.uk and Saints Player. #saintsfcu21 FM Saints Researcher ‏@MatthewLeGod @officialsaints Can we have proper extended highlights of the under 21's rather than the usual 2 to 4 minutes. Please. :-) Southampton FC ‏@officialsaints @MatthewLeGod Extended highlights coming shortly!

He blocked me long ago sadly.

That is another very good entry to the competition. Plus, we already know Spike Milligan didn't like Portsmouth...

One of these...

Premier League ‏@premierleague Howard Webb has been appointed referee for Southampton v Sunderland on Saturday 22nd December. #SOUSUN

That links in nicely with the prize, cleverly done Andy.

Have we played this game before... Should this thread ever actually "end" and be moved to the Golden Threads forum. What would you like the final post to be before it is closed? Ideally it should be from Fitzhugh Fella as he started the thread and would bookend it nicely. Wittiest answer/picture/video wins a signed copy of MLG's attendance tables vol. 1 - 42.
