toty's thread

Aren't you just a little bit bored with this now?

It's happening again today.

Yes I agree. Posting great tracts of anything without explanation seems rather pointless apart from anything else.

I would welcome a post from any believer that stated clearly what they believed, provided it was not offensive towards other people. I found the OP offensive and was glad it was deleted.

The Song isn't sermonising then.....that makes sense.

Is it promoting sex?

j04 Humpty Dumpty in Alice's `Adventures Through the Looking Glass, having defined "glory" as a nice knock-down argument, then explained that the meaning of words was simply a question of who is master.

Ah yes! I like that Humpty Dumpty!

I think I would enjoy the Alice books more now than I did when I was little! And I liked them a lot then.

Crossed post with Anagram She must have googled it and got it right.

Jingle it was in Alice In Wonderland that Humpty Dumpty said that. Don't think he had time to say anything as he fell off the wall (maybe "ouch!")

I think absent meant this Humpty Dumpty.

Thanks for the link to the history of Humpty Dumpty, jings.

Who's we?

Is it like 'petrolhead'?

Do we?!

What does it mean?

"I don't think the word faithist exists."

Nah - we say 'faithhead' usually...

Fascinating!

Oops! Missed the post out!

he was a cannon originally

I suppose he said, "Bang!".

this lot don't include any speech by him

ej, I know few people who call themselves Jewish but are not followers of Judaism. Some even happy to eat bacon, etc.

I thought it was obvious what I meant. I still think it was. The word I used - "racist" - was the word I meant to use.

Don't jewish people consider themselves to be one race as well as one religion, wherever they are in the world. Dating back to when they had no homeland?

I didn't know Humpty Dumpty talked. What did he say?

Is Judaism is considered a race as well as a religion?

johanna The word Jew refers to a race as well as to someone who follows a religion.

j04 You can't just use words willy nilly to mean whatever you like in the manner of Humpty Dumpty. Or at least not if you expect other people to follow what you're talking about.

and if you can't get your head round that, well............... !

What on earth do you mean by that?!

I'm not shrugging anything off!

I meant what I said. I thought perhaps GNHQ were worried it might turn into something racist. I was wrong, as Cari's explanation shows.

I appreciate there are muslims in many races, as there are jews, Christians, etc. etc. I don't need anyone here to tell me basic facts thank you.
