    Nepal & Karma, constant sms & 38 degrees donation emails etc getting on my nerves now

    You know my first thought on the news of this earthquake

    Death and the goddess: The world's biggest ritual slaughter


    Just saying like. Is this Karma?

    You think some supernatural, all-powerful, deity caused the earthquake to punish these people because they cull cattle in a way you don't like?
    I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]

        Makes as much sense as any other religious crap anyway.

          People using "karma" when they actually mean "revenge".

            Only Volcanoes make sense, because anyone killed by them is obviously boiling for the FSMs sins
            Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

            No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

              Do they? Do you have the religious breakdown of those who died?

                Especially those at Chomolungma base camps where 18 died and of those only around 6 of them were Nepalese?

                  Tell me about it - Just because I once signed a 38 Degrees petition to ban a pesticide that was decimating bees doesn't mean I give two hoots about the hysterical NHS petitions ("two days to save the NHS" and suchlike) they keep badgering us with.

                  It's presumptuous of them to think that just because people agree with some of their petitions they will inevitably care about all!
