LESS POLITICKIN

MORE BIGFOOTIN

[Sean92008]

Nite all  -  Head pounds=me wimpering in my bed asking for that non-existent omnipotent supernatural being to kill all my enemies THEN take me.

[QuantumMystics]

Art totally missed this callers point. Mohammad was not a good role model at all especially compared to Jesus

It maybe like choosing Charles Manson and John Lennon and saying their 'religions" and should both get protection.

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

Anyone else get that weird robo digital break-up?

Yup - I think that happens when the caller loses bandwidth or their connection partially drops. It corrupts the datastream.

[trostol]

Well hell yes the world would be better off without religion.

agreed

[21st Century Man]

Art doesn't get real Christianity.  Jesus Christ never advocated wars or violence.  He practiced peace unless one defiled a place of worship.  His "followers" used violence in the name of God and that was wrong.

[zeebo]

Definitely ELO in 1975, their prime. The Eagles before they went harder though I like a lot of that stuff too. Wings before Venus And Mars.

Good catch on the Eagles.  Also, Tom Waits live in '75, in some dive somewhere would've been great.

[albrecht]

Damn, I participated or started this thread derailment, sorry. (But aside from opera etc RJD is the best.) Art going, a bit, Norry in his religious speculations.

[trostol]

whats amazing is the 3 bigguns all come from the same damn starting point

[Zenman]

Definite blasphemy. Tull goes on the list as does Yes.

Yes Tull, and yes Yes. Near the top of the list I'd say, along with ELP.

Steely Dan's up there too.

And you know this how?

Yep.

[popple]

Can the Canadians stop calling the international line?

[Sandra Kristen]

Art must be in a good mood tonight to let someone break the rules. How often does he let someone talk after they called the wrong line? This is like the first time I can remember.

This is a good point. All the bullshit people mention from the bible is from the old testament which Jesus was all about reforming. Mohammad's religion was founded on violence, this is a fact but now we can get arrested for saying it.

[Zenman]

just not a huge Tull fan lol

Weirdo.

The problem with saying "Real <name of religion here>" is that none of them are actually "real".  Most of them are nothing but made-up nonsense about some fantasy figure in the sky that you're supposed to pray to (and, oh yeah, don't forget to give money to the folks who run the religion)

I'm not so sure. He was most probably executed for sedition against the Roman Empire and the probable group he was connected up with, the Essenes, i.e. John the Baptist, went out in a blaze of violent glory in a later revolt against the Romans.

[trostol]

Weirdo.   

duh lol

I couldn't agree more.

[WOTR]

Can the Canadians stop calling the international line?

How else can we differentiate ourselves from Americans?

[JamesMcDonald]

Can the Canadians stop calling the international line?

Is Canada now part of the U.S.?

[zeebo]

Steely Dan's up there too.

Huge fan.  Saw them in the friggin late 90's and they rocked Bodhisattva as their opening tune, perfectly.  They still had their chops.

Wish Art would play some bumpers.

[trostol]

Is Canada now part of the U.S.?

they are our hat

[Rocky4228]

Really, people?  It's very easy to get through to Art these days.

[WOTR]

What about MEXICO Art... You never mention Mexico???

[Mind Flayer Monk]

1979 US Tour
Nazareth (main)
Thin Lizzy (opening act)

$7.00

[ZomZom]

Whether your God tells you to feed the poor or slaughter infidels the source of your knowledge is equally invalid.  But the ones who want to slaughter infidels are more of a problem to put it mildly.

[trostol]

wouldnt mind seeing Elton back in the day either

[albrecht]

Not sure arrested, for sure an audit. But there are those National Security Letters than one cannot even speak of, or be aware of?
