The little things that annoy you

‘ists
even Atheists, even though I am one I don’t feel the need to shove it down people’s throats

So its not just me (as an atheist/borderline agnostic) who's getting sick of the atheist agenda.

Yeah, there is that option, you're right. It's a tangled web isn't it. Pretty much everything seems to be a tangled web, come to think of it. We should hire some spiders to sort it all out.

In ten years I've only found one agent I can trust, I don't bulltulip him and vice versa and he's been put to the test a few times.

What do you mean by atheist agenda exactly? Dawkin's spoutings?

I would consider him to be the ringleader yes

[doodab]

I can see why some people would find him offensive.

Personally I think belief in God will die out by itself within a few hundred years, as long as we avoid forcible indoctrination of our children and allow them to make their own minds up. Of course, there is the whole debate as to whether one ought to be allowed to indoctrinate ones own children, which depends on some extent on whether you feel there has to come a time when people cease to believe what you believe to be falsehoods or human progress will be stunted.

That I think is the next great idealogical war, and there are people far worse than Dawkins on both sides of it.

Agencies that use fake names in the adverts.

Rang regarding a gig advertised on jobserve and the receptionist almost tripped herself up on whether said imaginary name was on the phone or in a meeting.

[doodab]

Journalists who write that 'x has admitted that...' as if some enormous secret had been uncovered when it's actually some banal and obvious factoid.

Look, I wasn't trying to start some kind of Spanish Inquisition!
