Do you think that people are really this uneducated or is it just plain old sarcasm?..I meet so many intelligent members that post real informative topics and information but then again I see people like this and I shake my head...I shudder to think!!!

Well, while my brain is not ready to buy the idea that something like that can ever be claimed seriously, we can't ignore that when one states, beforehand, that he/she "is not joking" there could be some seriousness in these claims
I don't want to laugh at these posts, i'm just concerned: "a friend o' mine who's been channelled told me that the moon has been stolen".
I honestly hope it was a joke, but who knows?
Typing while sleeping?

Just when I thought I could not find something to make me shake y head with that burning question....is this person for real or is it sarcasm...Its things like this that keep me coming back for more.

I am surprised to hear your story. I though we, a group of us, had rid the world of the night eater. Apparently It still lives.

There are several things you can do to protect yourself. PLEASE do take precautions immediately as the attacks will get worse.

You must not sleep after the sun goes down. You may sleep as soon a you see first light each morning.

Next, the night eater apparently smells something sweet on your breath or you body. Do not bathe again until this issue is resolved.

What ever you do, do not eat anything sweet.

Finally, get a few boxes of cookies and assorted sweet rolls and crumble them up finely and sprinkle them all around your bed and at the entrance to your bedroom door. Keep a large bowl of Twinkies by your door also.

When the night eater eats enough Twinkies the ingredients they are made with will kill the night eater. If a new one ever comes back just do the same routine over again.

Good luck and may the force be with you as you do battle.

Its funny wolf, I dont claim to a expert in most fields except my own profession and my military service but when it comes to this site I plead the fifth..Im hoping it was sarasm at its finest because the OP does not contribute anyhing good to this site so I hope it was an attempt at sarcasm...

reply to post by cmd18B


Or perhaps the poster was trying to be taken seriously just for a laugh at the OP. It's funny. I've usually got a pack of 'emergency' biscuits in a draw in the side table next to my bed. Maybe now I can say it's incase of a night eater attack rather than admitting to being a glutton.

The fact the post mentions a group thought to have eliminated the last of the night eaters, I think it will very much be a sarcasm post.

Some excellent quotes contained in this refreshing thread. It is good to see ATS laugh for a change...

Well go cruising for some classics and bury them here..We could always use a good laugh and its nothing personal, Im surprised OP didnt put one of my wonderful perils of wisdom in the grave yet!!!

Ok, here we go. From a fairly active thread, this one nearly made me spit Vitamin Water out all over the desk.

"Dell Computers putting top secret UFO cordinates in their software

I have a graphics card that i just got from dell and it tracks the coordinates of the us military and unidentified flying objects throughout outer space. its the weirdest thing i have ever seen."

“The world is a dangerous place. Not because of the people who are evil; but because of the people who don't do anything about it.” Albert Einstein

“If at first, the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it” Albert Einstein

“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.” Albert Einstein

Great ideas often receive violent opposition from mediocre minds.

“No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.” P. J. O'Rourke


I assert most unhesitatingly, that the religion of the South is a mere covering for the most horrid crimes-- a justifier of the most appalling barbarity, a sanctifier of the most hateful frauds, and a dark shelter under which the darkest, foulest, grossest, and most infernal deeds of slaveholders find the strongest protection. Where I to be again reduced to the chains of slavery, next to that enslavement, I should regard being the slave of a religious master the greatest calamity that could befall me. . . I. . . hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of this land.-Frederick Douglass (After the Escape)

"The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." Albert Einstein

When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.--Abraham Lincoln, 16th U.S. President [1861-1865]. From Henry O. Dormann, compiler, The Speaker's Book of Quotations, New York: Ballantine Books, 1987, p. 127.)

There has never been a good war or a bad peace.-Benjamin Franklin

Of all the systems of religion that ever were invented, there is no more derogatory to the Almighty, more unedifiying to man, more repugnant to reason, and more contradictory to itself than this thing called Christianity.
-Thomas Paine (The Age of Reason)


For ages, a deadly conflict has been waged between a few brave men and women of thought and genius upon the one side, and the great ignorant religious mass on the other. This is the war between Science and Faith. The few have appealed to reason, to honor, to law, to freedom, to the known, and to happiness here in this world. The many have appealed to prejudice, to fear, to miracle, to slavery, to the unknown, and to misery hereafter. The few have said "Think" The many have said "Believe!"-Robert Ingersoll, (Gods)

Where knowledge ends, religion begins.-Benjamin Disraeli

Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion - several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight.-Mark Twain

Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking; where it is absent, discussion is apt to become worse than useless.-Leo Tolstoy (On Life and Essays on Religion)

Religion is a disease. It is born of fear; it compensates through hate in the guise of authority, revelation. Religion, enthroned in a powerful social organization, can become incredibly sadistic. No religion has been more cruel than the Christian. -Dr. George A. Dorsey


You find as you look around the world that every single bit of progress in humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step toward the diminution of war, every step toward better treatment of the colored races, or every mitigation of slavery, every moral progress that there has been in the world, has been consistently opposed by the organized churches of the world. I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organized in its churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world. -Bertrand Russell (Why I Am Not a Christian)

"Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."--Woodrow Wilson

Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. If we continue to develop our technology without wisdom or prudence, our servant may prove to be our executioner. --General Omar Bradley


"Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing." - George Orwell

A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it.
George W. Bush

Of all the creatures, man is the most detestable. Of the entire brood, he is the only one that possesses malice. He is the only creature that inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain. The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot. - Mark Twain

The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven, not man's. Letter to W.D. Howells, 2 April 1899

I do not consider it an insult, but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic. I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure -- that is all that agnosticism means. - Clarence Darrow Scopes trial, Dayton, Tennessee, July 13, 1925

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction. - Blaise Pascal


When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow. - Anais Nin


"Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it." - Mark Twain

I say put the pornographers in charge of the cameras that go on space probes.

Found one!

Here's a GREAT set up by C0bzz
I'll let the quotes do the talking

Those ships look like an over sized Yacht not fit for military warfare. See the picture that is lined with Chinese forces? That's how they actually plan to fight you. Standing on the deck with a rifle in hand. Try matching this up against our US Navy Warships and Aircraft Carriers. The government doesn't care if they lose all of their lives. They are happy for the overpopulation.

Yes indeed.

One ship China White forgot to mention is the new Zhengzhou class destroyer. It has a navalised version of the old S-200 with the missiles mounted in DLC (Diagonal Launch Cells).

Look at it. Obviously at Yacht not fit for military warfare. Don't you think?

Originally posted by blowfishdl


Very similar to the first picture just longer and obviously has a missile launch system. The walls look very thin and cheap. It's very blocky so there is zero stealth capability with that machine. They would see you coming a mile away literally so I hope those missiles can travel far. If they aren't anti-aircraft missiles they are going to be sunk instantly.

Originally posted by chinawhite

You do realise that is the AMERICAN Ticonderoga class cruiser.

I believe Cobzz set you up. Your pathetic attempt to troll is so obvious. You brag about how good the US military is and you dont have a clue about it. ROFL. If the Ticonderoga class is a filmsy as you say it is, then the American military is in big trouble.

Thank you for replying.

The craft pictured is actually the highly capable USS Ticonderoga.

Her class along with the Arleigh burke class, make up AEGIS and AEGIS BMD which are the most capable Air Warfare Destroyers (AWD) in the world. The USS Lake Erie, a Ticonderoga class ship, successfully shot down USA 193 spy satellite with a SM-3 standard missile.

This comes from the "Down with the porn industry" thread.

by jimmyx

without porn, i'd actually have to have sex with my wife!!!! after 26 years of marriage and both of us being in our late 50's, that's like eating a porterhouse steak for every meal for 26 years!!! sometimes all you need is a quickly made salami sandwich.

Lets hope his Wife is not keeping tabs on his posts
