I agree Stripes.

Perhaps there is an app that will turn me into a charming prince.

It's things like this that, while our technology has advanced exponentially, makes one wonder just how far the human race has come since the holy wars.

I don't think grouping the whole human race into the small percentage of idiotic bible thumpers like these app makers is appropriate. The majority of the human race are not like that and you shouldnt need to wonder about how far we have come.

Are you speaking on behalf of everyone in your own generation bieb?

It could get scary... (for you)
What you think is important is rarely urgent
But what you think is Urgent is rarely important

The majority of the human race didn't want to invade Jerusalem or head off on a crusade either.

I do wish you were right Bieb, but each time I turn on the news or look at the paper, I fear you are not.

if you two are talking about the current train of thought of the US of A ... think 'nazi germany' vs 'modern germany' ... or 'british empire' vs 'modern britan' ... ...it always gets worse before it gets better...

Bluey it would really help if you actually explained why you agree/disagree or like/dislike something. You seem to just not actually explain why, every time you post. Leaving it open like that just leads to people ignoring you, or incorrectly guessing what you were trying to say.

I have to say I prefer Blueys cryptic comments to ones that are hypocritical in nature, take for instance some one saying how its wrong to stereotype and then goes on to do just that themselves  :ugly:

To be fair Bluey's comments on the site are normally not useful or intuative. including reviving VERY old threads just to post a comment such as:
https://forum.winmxworld.com/index.php?topic=3554.msg61372#msg61372

Or one off comments that add little to the discussion

As an Assistant Room Supervisor you either need to post with more thought on here in order to support the discussions, or stick to the room IMO.

If your using what I said in your example: Asking someone to explain their opinion is not being stereotypical.

I don't see why after all you have done here, you would support cryptic comments that do nothing more than confuse people even further...

Some would say your initiating a potential vendetta by sifting through so many posts of Blueys RebelMx, it seems many folks dont understand Blueys comments, personally I have no problems doing so but of course that is with the added knowedge of whats said in the chatroom as well as here.


Bieb: your post reffered to "idiotic bible thumpers ", this is the hypocrisy I pointed out, I,m suprised you didnt spot how ridiculous it is to accuse others of stereotyping folks and yet undertake the same thing yourself.

care to fill in the blank?


...and yet another thread follows 'wmw tradition' .... it flows off topic and into a flamewar then ultimately ends up locked...



anyway, back on topic.. apple has pulled the app...

http://www.csmonitor.com/Innovation/Horizons/2011/0323/Apple-axes-gay-cure-iPhone-app

...since 'christian science' has always sounded like a complete oxymoron to me heres another from the examiner...

http://www.examiner.com/humanist-in-national/apple-pulls-pray-the-gay-away-exodus-iphone-app

and from the 'truth wins out' site itself; http://www.truthwinsout.org/news/2011/03/15478/

Thanks Silver. Apple had to pull it sooner or later.
