<In case you didn't notice, I'm not here trying to make friends with you Godless, effeminate, liberal yahoos.>

Oct-07-14  SugarDom: <Oct-07-14 hv.U.grwnup: hey daniel freeman , just checking if you guys have grown up yet ? :)

i mean you banned <qc> because you said that your 'policy' was that <bureaucrat> and some others were allowed to call <qc> names relentlessly, continuously and <qc> was not allowed to call the same names back to them.

hahaha

for posterity...

Oct-07-14  TheFocus: No. The Admins still act like kindergartners.
They have their favored sons and daughters who can do absolutely no wrong.

They are hypocrites as I pointed out before.

Oct-07-14  SugarDom: You're still a newbie, we've known that ages ago. :)

<cro777: GM Susan Polgar: "One of the toughest decisions I ever had to make in my chess career was not which piece to move on the board. Instead, after I had moved to the United States, I was confronted with a test of allegiance. Having spent my whole life representing my homeland of Hungary at the chessboard, I was asked to go to the 2004 Chess Olympiad and lead the American team to its first-ever medals in the sport..."> Now, we know.

Oct-30-14  Colonel Mortimer: Kinghunt chessforum

<OhioChessFan> <Humans at that time lived 10 times as long as man today. Certainly that suggests that they were much stronger physically than the men of today. It also suggests that the conditions for long life were extant.>

  moronovich: <Colonel Mortimer: Kinghunt chessforum <OhioChessFan> <Humans at that time lived 10 times as long as man today. Certainly that suggests that they were much stronger physically than the men of today. It also suggests that the conditions for long life were extant.>>

Somehow reminds me about the cartoons of Donald Duck back in the 50ies and 60ies.

Some people dont need to take mescaline.Just hand them a big book with big pictures.

Oct-31-14  Colonel Mortimer: <moronovich:> LOL!
Oct-31-14  Karpova: torrefan: <Fanatics are never inconsequential. Even just one of them can blow up an entire village.>

Millionaire Chess (2014) Millionaire Chess (2014)

Nov-08-14  MarkFinan: <latvalatvian: Anand is way better than Carlsen and will win this hands down>= Too funny.
Nov-10-14  MarkFinan: <HeMateMe: <How many Rogoffers does it take to change a light bulb?> Quite few! <Abdel> will take the two paragraph instruction page and rewrite it into five pages of unreadable run-on sentences;

then <Mort> will demand a halt in work while he determines whether or not the World Bank has given Gaza and the West Bank THEIR fair share of light bulbs, and calculating the ratio of Israel light bulbs to Palestinian territory light bulbs in 1947, to see that the all important ratio be maintained, all the while bad mouthing the USA for being the worlds largest energy consumer;

I'll make sure that it's a halogen bulb and recommend that optional solar panels be used instead of another carbon producing product;

<Chancho> will be on hand to explain that Einstein felt that dinosaur bad breath actually produced more carbon than modern day people do, thus invalidating the whole concept of global warming;

<Sugardom> will make sure we know that USA sailors who docked at Clark base in the 1970s in the PP used to haul off cases of light bulbs off of the boats and sell the stolen goods on the black market or trade them for bar girl services;

<check it out> will explain to us why gypsies working in Parisian suburban sweat shops under EU auspices make light bulbs in a way that more greatly benefits the world economy than do Mexicans making light bulbs in Guadalajara;

<Jim Bartle> will be there to tell us that Ecuadorians chewing cocoa leaves make light bulbs FASTER than the Mexicans or gypsies, and thus we must rethink our product procurement policy;

<Focus> will remind us that Indians burned the glue of buffalo eyeballs for light, and contributed nothing to the world carbon accumulation problem;

<Mark Finnan> will make sure that alleged drunks like Harry aren't allowed to participate, as it would create a safety hazard;

<Harry Lime> will make sure that alleged druggies like Mark Finnan aren't allowed to participate, as it would create a safety hazard;

<AJ> will come out of retirement to blow the whistle to the admins re: off topic light bulb discussion, saying "THEY are off topic--BUST them!" and demand that all light bulb discussion be halted, unless it takes place within the context of one of AJ's tactical masterpieces against the crème de crème of the Florida K-1 chess league.

I'd say it will take eleven people, total. Maybe 12 1/2 if any schizophrenic multiple personalities come in to help, from South Korea or Vietnam.>>

Its the chessgames equivalent of Billy Joels, we didn't start the fire! #Brilliant

Nov-16-14  shivasuri4: <Ratt Boy: Deep Blue never said one mean thing about anybody. Butt I was still rooting for Kasparov against it.>

Shaked vs Kasparov, 1997

Nov-27-14  Jim Bartle: <Big Pawn>: The argument from contingency shows that there must be one uncaused cause that created the universe, and we call that cause God.
Nov-29-14  achieve: My reply to Big P.

<!!> God's moral values are NOT objective; "he" puts down a standard, but it is "his" standard. The mass killings of not only peoples, cities, but also mass scale animal sacrifice to "buy off" man's sins, or make them aware of, would not pass my moral compass. Or filter if you will.

Then there is the difference between OT and NT, both of which were not written by Jesus or God in person, but by more of a "bio/historio-grapher" type persons. BTW. But of course these two collections of books/letters contain quite differing standards of moral values. Or were certainly put in effect quite differently.

Until the big clean-up * choke * of course, as it will be like in the days of Noah. Rare consistency there.

Even apart from the fact that not one of us alive, has ever seen or heard God talk, the only thing we have is from what people who walked this earth wrote down, most of the time in second or third person, supposedly.

In other words, objectivity does not exist. Moral objectivity at that. And they are just two human made English words.

What we are left with, is what our "conscience" tells us.

And even that message from way down there rarely reaches the surface with all too many. Religious zealots are the worst. Even with Jesus' teachings/moral indicative, they manage to mess things up with unfathomable drive and energy.

Nov-29-14  achieve: P.S.

Just a rare "one off" here (post above this one); but I am just taking into account that a number of posts there, in BP's forum, get deleted regularly.

Nov-30-14  Colonel Mortimer: <Deus Ex Alekhina> <homosexuals being put to death - what is more immoral, putting them to death or tolerating them?>

<OhioChessFan> <tolerating them is more immoral.>

Dec-02-14  shivasuri4: <Phony Benoni: Of course the Fried Liver is unsound. Everybody knows that, especially once they get home and fire up Fritzy and his Friends. Alas, before the post mortem the gods have placed the game.>

Shirov vs S Sulskis, 2014
