Ah yes, lets bring Religion into hockey... Well, why would Jesus support
Flames over Lightning when Lightning comes from the heavens and Flames are
the trademark of hell?
See? I can make pointless religious observations too and try to do
something as stupid as George W. Bush saying God told him to Invade Iraq!!
:-p

Because Jesus is currently in his Gene Simmons phase...
A lot of people seem to wear their dislike, or even hatred of this President
on their sleeve. Perhaps they think there is additional humour to it since
many Canadians are viewing this and of course all Canadians hate Bush.
Well, as a Canadian, I admire George Bush and I think he is a decent man
doing an incrediby difficult job at a very difficult time.
I'm sure many love to make fun of how Florida screwed up the election. Be
happy that you have an electoral college. Imagine if New York City simply
picked your President every time there was an election the way Toronto picks
our government every time.
There will be no more political commentary by me in this forum.
I don't think you understand. I had a short, but informative, conversation with
Jesus. At the end of the conversation Jesus said, and I quote "Go Flames go".
It doesn't matter if Jesus is the janitor where I work, he's still Jesus.
question?.................Were you in Church on Sunday night?
How about on SUPER BOWL SUNDAY?

What rock have you been living under, Jay? Or are you just blind and deaf
to anything but hockey?
The quote's been all over for a while now, directly from George himself...
Speaking of "I'd say you're quite capable of being as stupid as anyone could
wish" -- you exceed your own statement. Congratulations.
Population of Canada (2003) - 32,207,113

Let's see now, 17.39% of the people elect 11.69% of the seats in the House
of Commons. How exactly does Toronto pick the government every time?
WHY??
LOL -- ok... You got me thinking of "Die Hard: With a Vengence" with that

JOHN: Okay. Jesus, I'm sorry you got involved, all right?
ZEUS: Why you keep calling me 'Jesus'? I look Puerto Rican to you?
JOHN: The guy back there called you 'Jesus'.
ZEUS: He didn't call me 'Jesus'. He said, "Hey, Zeus." My name is Zeus.
JOHN: Zeus?
ZEUS: Yeah, Zeus. As in father of Apollo, god of Mount Olympus, don't fuck
with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass, Zeus!
Jesus Saves... Now would he be able to stop the rebound before Iggy punched
it in or what? :-p :-)
More accurately it would be Southern Ontario and Quebec, I was making a
comparison to one large populous area having an unproportional effect on
election outcomes, so that the American poster could see the benefit of an
electoral college. Examine percentage of vote not just seats elected. You
seem to have the numbers, what was the percentage vote in GTA for the
Liberals (oh, excuse me, cocksucking liberals <spit!>) and of those seats
how many went to the Liberals.
After all of the corrucption and theft how many of those 28 seats will still
be Liberal.
why does anyone care who a fictional character would cheer for?

What's Alberta?

And as anyone who is a fan of Coen Brothers movies, 'Nobody fucks with
the Jesus!'
That's kind of a dumb comeback. The Romans were meticulous in detail
about the goings on in the world at the time and there are plenty of
written records regarding Jesus. You may not agree with the religion
behind the name, but saying he was fictional is just ignorant of
history.

It really has nothing to do with belief systems. I'm a hardcore
agnostic going back to being in the astrophysics dept. at the U of C.
I'm not sticking up for an ideology. What you're saying, though, is
the equivalent of saying you believe there were no such people as
Winston Churchill, Julius Caesar or Ghengis Khan. I guess it's
completely off topic now, so I'll leave you to the mockery from your
peers.
I'm not a religous person at all. Jay's point was to make you use a
little bit of simple reasoning. I have a feeling you never did well
in school.
Actually an electoral college system is no different than our riding system.
When a candidate wins a state, such as California or Florida, the candidate
gets ALL the electoral votes from that state, no matter many votes were cast
for the opponent. In the last US election, Al Gore actually got a higher
percentage of the popular than George Bush, but because of the states Bush
won, he had more electoral votes. If you went with straight percentage of
vote in Canada, Ontario and Quebec would still dictate the outcome of the
elections because those two provinces contain over 2/3's of the population.
The main difference between the American system and the Canadian one is the
built in checks and balances the American system has by having three equally
powerful levels of government, the Senate, the House of Representatives,
and the Presidency.
Yeah unfortunately they haven't been very equal for quite some time now.
REALLY? You've never heard of "Activist Judges?"

GOD: What are you doing, Jesus?
JESUS: Watching the Stanley Cup Finals, dad!
GOD: Oh yeah....I forgot about those....isn't that the Lightning and Flames
playing????
JESUS: Yes, it is. Who are you rooting for?
GOD: Well, I suppose the LIghtning...
JESUS: Really? Why?
GOD: Simple. The Flames represent hell, which is where I was going to send
Canada, but then it would simply kill the joke "Hell has frozen over!"
JESUS: Very funny, dad! What about the Lightning?
GOD: Did you ever see the "Ten Commandments?" I have an image to keep
up...
JESUS: But in that one you came to Moses as a burning bush! That was a use
of flames!
GOD: Picky picky picky......
JESUS: Personally I could care less about either team.....my favorite team
won a Championship two years ago...
GOD: Oh yes, the Angels....don't count on that one to happen again for a
while!
JESUS: Oh let it go, will you? The Yankees lost, fair and square!!!
GOD: It's not the Yankees that bothered me....it's that stupid Christopher
Lloyd!!!!!
JESUS: How about we just throw a Hurricane at Florida so they call it a
draw????
GOD: Good one...I'll get Michael and Gabriel on that right away!!!!
