Lorinda, onthou jy nog hierdie gesprek van ons? Wel, na gisteraand se
uitlating van ou Arnie op Jay Leno ('n Late Night talk show) is die
spreekoordelike vet nou letterlik in die vuur. :-))
Ons koerante en TV stasies praat heeldag hieroor. Uit die AJC
(koerant)
"The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" Thursday at NBC
Studios, was introduced to the audience by Leno, his friend and fellow
Republican, as "the next governor from the great state of California.
During "The Tonight Show" taping, Leno suggested campaign slogans for
the Austrian-accented actor as "Who better to represent a state where
no one speaks English?" and "Not a good enough actor to fool you on
taxes."
Schwarzenegger told Leno he is traveling to Iraq over the Fourth of
July to screen his movie for U.S. troops.
"There is no money over there. There's no leadership -- pretty much
like California," he said."
:-)))
Hierdie hele ding was sorgvuldig voorberei en gekook deur die Repugs
al vir maande. Nou sal ons maar sien...:-)

Het ek julle al gesê dat my favourite (jammer oor die woord maar
geliefkoosde klink nie reg nie:-) sokker span hier "Brighton and Hove
Albion" is... Hulle word ook die Seagulls genoem.....
Watter span ondersteun jy nou weer Katryn (in baseball)?
Die ANC gaan mos nou Pretoria se naam verander na "Tshwane". Hier is
'n paar van hulle nuwe name wat voorgestel word vir sommige "Tshwane"
voorstede - (sommige plekke kry selfs nuwe Afrikaanse name !) :
Hierdie brief kom vanuit SCSA.
Dink julle dat ek dit op SCSAA
vir Gloudina moet plaas?

Do not paint all religions with the same brush. There is a better
example of a non-theistic or atheistic religion- Buddhism. It is a
widely practiced religion that indeed does delve into morality without
a pretext of god. Your dislike for theistic religions should not
justify a lack of respect with all religions.
The greatest harm from zealous theistic religions happened during
destruction of other culture's text depicting different gods. These
losses were tragic. There was much to be learned from these differing
views. A general hatred of god or in different gods will lead to the
same result.
