A snowballing exodus of high-earners from Britain ? the top 5% of whom pay half of all income tax ? is a disaster for Rachel Reeves brought on by her own war on wealth, financial advisers have warned.

?Positive? Discrimination is Putting Lives at Risk Mon Apr 28, 2025 13:00 | Daniel Fessahaye
There is no such thing as 'positive' discrimination. And when it creeps into life-or-death professions like policing or flying a plane, it stops being merely unjust. It becomes dangerous, says Daniel Fessahaye.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4As he is opposed to gambling, Dawkins does not play dice with the Universe. He does however have a sense of humour. I am sure he will appreciate this.
But, if I am wrong and he isues a Fatwa then it will be necessary for me, as his loyal disciple, to hunt down the producers of this item.
Good for a titter..
Dawkins is a legend.
but he is not a myth.
Pledgebank is a site which allows people to promise to do something but only if a requisite number of others agree to do it too. At this page http://www.pledgebank.com/church-and-state you'll see that J Christie wanted 645 people to support his pledge to send a copy of the atheist book to their MP. He got them too. Very interesting list. Atheists appear to be organising a bit more now in the UK. http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/news/archives/2007/04/12/da...#more

God watchers will be happy to know Ratzinger has written his first book on Jesus. I'll be getting a copy into my select library soon & give it a glance over. I'm still pondering his "hell" declaration and emphasis on Judas for Easter (which of course on my blog I pre-empted by 8 hours.) Still got me suspicious. But a.s.a.p. a review of Ratzi's book will go under his "thinking thread" with the title et in arcadia ego and the wonderful usual illustration of that mysterious code and the sublime caption which really sums up our rebranding for the XXI century :- "if you move your thigh a wee bit I'll explain et in arcadio ego to you" http://www.indymedia.ie/article/73936
Secret society watchers will be happy to know that the "jesus tomb" experts who had previously lauded the James Cameron ossary box movie find - are now backing out of it all. Quite. It's horrible when people start jumping on your bandwagon just coz they think you've gone out of business or stopped existing or something. http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=117615276639...wFull
& for all of ye who prefer tippy toppy science to all that hoody eejit bollox - Dr Stephen Hawkings gave an interview in Seattle last Monday asnswering questions like Why does time seem to move always forward but never backward? oh well you got me there. & then not to lose track of what it all means :- how do you autograph a book? Quite. Probably the same way he gets up steps.......either there is a ramp left or.................someone helps him. Naturally he didn't give that answer. We fell out a long time ago over his "we won't evolve because of the birth channel size" so big jars of fluid in the jungle with jesus DNA inside would be ok....

Real scientists amongst you with no or little imagination or to put it bluntly conception of how bad things have got in this globalised imperialist moonbase economy will enjoy this :-
"Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in Germany have created a tiny silicon cantilever arm on a chip that, after being cooled down to 0.0001 degrees above absolute zero, will sway back and forth in multiple modes at once, becoming the world's first macroscopic system in a purely quantum mechanical state - http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2007/04/q...antum
That means you can see it. Brill. Normally you can't see Quantum things. They're too small which is why we give the world government billions of kilograms worth of lentils every year so they can build huge magnifying glasses. Because if you don't keep an eye on Quantum things - they give you the shits. Look at Galway.
