    Anything that mentions 'New World Order' reeks of immaturity, conspiracy theories, and laughable facts.

    I think its amazing that they put it all together myself. Holes everywhere, but I'm sure one could be taken in by it, it is very elaborate.

    There is a sense amongst the newly initiated to the 'net that if it's online, it must be true. I hope common sense wins out on this one though, it's right up there with David Icke's conspiracy theory of Lizards running the world.

    This link is very anti catholic, so be warned. It was a banner add about Revelation 17 right here in the forum. Just wondering what you make of it.

    What a crock!

    "THE BIBLE REVEALS NEXT AND LAST POPE WILL BE A DEVIL IMPERSONATING JOHN PAUL II"

    What???!!! Is JPII supposedly going to emerge from the grave like Lazarus?

    Google generates them according to the content on the page in fairness. Boards.ie didn't choose for that advert to be shown. It tries to show ads related to Christianity, but sometimes they can be rather negative. It's automated basically and randomly change. So I don't think we should put anyone to blame for it coming up. Unless you want to take it up with google?

    Sorry, I wasn't complaining about it. I did wonder how it got there, but I wasn't complaining. I quite like to see Revelation being tackled, and was fascinated by how elaborate these guys were.

    Pretty much all the ads we get in the Atheism forum are 'inappropriate'...

    That's why you should use Firefox and install the adblock extension. Not an add to be seen after installation.

    Firefox, sure. I don't install adblock, because I do a lot of web development - I need to see what the average user sees.

    Of all the possible jobs, Scofflaw, that would be one that I wouldn't have readily guessed the answer to. I dunno why!

    How very odd...if it's any better, I've also been an oil rig worker, a professional trainer, and an environmental scientist?

    For a moment, I read that as 'professional wrestler'. I'm a little disappointed now :(
