    Coming from someone who doesn't clear no anything about it...
    Ignoring your dodgy syntax, how could I know anything about which there is nothing to be known?

    Anyway, can we get back to Bendydick's retirement now? You can busy yourself designing the spaceship. Watch out for those constellations though. They can be tricky buggers.

    You just don't get it. I'll explain it to you very simply. *Ahem*.....:rolleyes:

    And that's all there is to it!

    We're talking about astrology as if it's science or on the pretence that there is some truth to it.

    Shure it gives us a break from being anti-Church.

    in what way?

    Astrology came first, and Astronomy came after it. It's going off topic. So it would need another thread for it. But then again, Boards.ie doesn't really cater for higher forms of knowledge It's format is to keep everything, controlled, generic and systematic. Don't look under the surface and don't investigate anything. What people need to understand here is, astrology is used by the Vatican and it's funny that so many people don't realise that on this thread. Am I surprised, of course not. The level of ignorance in this country is shocking on just about anything these days.

    Atheists are commonly skeptical. But just to be clear for all of the people who think it's a requirement. No, no it's not!

    So... The Pope... What about that then, eh?

    He's an Aries.
    The period just ahead of you promises a lot of luck and success. The initiatives you will take in your career or personal life will come off without a hitch. You should think about trying some kind of new activity on a professional level. Take advantage of all the good luck in the air. Don't be afraid to burn the candle at both ends now and live life to the fullest.

    WOW :eek: - that explains it all!!!!

    It really has come to a sad state of affairs when I am quoting CC Ltd. on their doctrines to prove someone wrong but...

    The first paragraph says it all.

    Aquarius34 should be the next pope. Sure that would be mad, Ted...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,595 ✭✭✭Aquarius34


    When you read threads such as this, and you see how everything is so suppressed, one can only be certain that Ireland as a country will not change because the mentality people in this country hasn't changed. It look's apparent here and it looks like it's not going to change anytime soon. I cannot understand how people can just stick their heads in the sands to the point that they have to dismiss everything just to suit their own small minded view about how we see the world. Why can'y people just wake up.... ffs.

    Sure what's next, the next pope is going to be no different. Obviously. Will child abuse be covered up, surely. Will most people blindly believe in the Church again?, surely. Will corruption continue, of course. Will people still have faith in their leaders, naturally. Will the atheist's still be lost and frustrated about why the world doesn't make sense? Of course. Will we all stil be arguing on threads like this, suppose so.

    And of course, religious people and atheist's will continue to fight over whats bread and what isn't.

    God this thread only shows up all the more reasons as to why society has not changed and why everything stuck in the ballygobackwards town of ignorance.

    understand the movement of the universe.

    What does that even mean? If you're referring to movements within the universe, there's already a science to describe and understand them. It's called celestial mechanics. If you're talking about the universe itself actually moving, how could you possibly assert such a thing without first leaving the universe and having an inertial reference frame?

    Would you not be more comfortable back over in CT? You certainly wouldn't have to put up with me. Every time I visit I get carded for talking sense.

    They lap up your sorta stuff over there. You'd not be long linking those illuminati lads into the story! I think some of them are even serious!

    Oh here we go. Let me get my calculator, can't use my brain. I'll get my portable laboratory and we can discuss all about it there.

    You don' get it, that's why, you don't understand. We go to college/school to be TOLD things as to be true or what is to be true. We don't actually think for ourselves and learn how to think for ourselves and get to know how creation and the universe truly works. Is it any wonder, why humanity as is the mess it's in? This thread is hopeless and it's like clucking straws for me at this point.

    Move the word 'thick' in that sentance. You'd be closer to the truth of it. Maybe a padded wall?

    Yes ;) For quite an apparent reason, but none that you'd even comprehend nor understand... The sun is in Aquarius right now, and the age we are in the age of Aquarius. They are facts. Those who understand the Zodiac, understand the movement of the universe. 90percent of people who read star signs don't understand astrology or astronomy for that matter.

    Stop trying to sound like your smart. You're just been ignorant to what you don't understand....
