Some people just have to believe in an Almighty.  The same people ususally believe in ghosts and read their stars.

These are the ones who give astrology a bad name.

Is there anyone out there who has made a deep study of astrology?
Fascinating subject*, isn't it? Fodder for the grey cells.


"Long experience has taught me this about the status of mankind with regard to matters requiring thought: the less people know and understand about them, the more positively they attempt to argue concerning them, while on the other hand to know and understand a multitude of things renders men cautious in passing judgement upon anything new.

Don't get me going about Astrology. The second biggest load of crap after religion. I'm amazed at the guff some people believe in on faith.

Now that Sister Lucia and the pope have died, we may never know what the "third secret" was!

Erm, if you read this thread back from the start... it's supposed to be the JPII was going to get shot.
But they never bothered telling him, so it was pointless.

Perhaps it is just a very slow downfall....

Reading through this thread, it has become apparent we are no longer discussing the nun. It has become a religious education by Catholic believers.

I never actually knock religion, I believe there is a place for it...but I hate the way it is interpreted by religious leaders and believers.

Who are you to tell anyone they will go to hell because they are not believing or following in what you so arrogantly call the truth. I for one have no religious beliefs, but I go through life as a relatively harmless and nice person and don't believe I have anything to be sorry for when it comes to judgement day (if indeed this day exists). Prove it to me if you can!

A religious believer feels they are 100% right, and no matter what is said, you can not sway their views because they are RIGHT. What gives you the right to try and change other people's views. I detest the FACTS that are quoted at us with absolutely no proof. Proof is not because someone said so, this is secondary evidence and would not hold up in a court of law. And a book that was written years ago, namely the bible, which religious leaders choose to use to their advantage. Before you even go there, I am not anti-gay, but is there not a passage that states something along the lines of "man shall not lay with man". Now their are gay priests, this part is ignored in religious breifings.

So Eileen, I would be interested in your answers?

well, since she was 'sister' lucia that would explane the whole catholic idea.

I have just spent the best part of 2 hours reading this thread.
Assuming I live three-score-and-ten years, I've just spent 0.0000032% of my entire life reading this thread. It's late and my eyes are sore now, but I don't consider any of that time to have been a waste. Classic DL fare from start to finish. So far so good...


P.S. This is my first post. I've been a DL watcher for a while but never posted until now. I wish my post had been better, certainly less sycophantic. I registered as Star Crossed a couple of weeks ago, but whenever I try to post while logged-in as Star Crossed, I get an error message. Any chance a Mod could sort this for me? Cheers.

Mods aren't gods don't you know. Also by reading your first ever post
i've been hoping that you will have many more to come. I think from
my judgement you have what it takes to be a deathlist regular
around here. Being honest i wouldn't have the heart to read about
Sister Lucia for 2 hours long but perhaps that's just me. As far as you
logging in try a couple more times it should work and if it refuses to
just create another name maybe similar to the one you had before?

It's also intresting how you actually calculated your time reading
this thread. A bit strange in my view. Though the real truth is your
wasting your life all of the time. When you drop your car keys and
you have to pick them up or even when you buy your dearly beloved
girlfriend a peice of jewlery she wanted and demanded for, but later on
you find out you got the wrong one and you have to return it back to
the store. . .

Anyhow welcome to the DL...

Do I need to spell out why I find that ironic?

[Tuber Mirum]

What kind of a nutter would read this thread from start to finish? Isn't this the one with all those page-long dogmatic diatribes from the Lovely Eileen? There are better threads you know.

Still it would be an improvement to have more members with a better balanced read/write ratio.

Welcome Star Crossed. I hope you get your login sorted.

Seems this thread has run its course, and Eileen had died (or just has no answer to my previous message. Oh well, I think we'll all miss her in our own sick way...
