Some are already out. I think the Lib Dems are in control of Birmingham. It could be the Conservatives, I've forgotten. But I know it's not Labour.

You're still missing the point. If God is omnipotent, he could make his species die, because he has the power to do anything. If he was another species, or not a living thing, is beyond the question. Fact is, he could kill himself because he is all powerful. He is either eternal or omnipotent; he cannot be both. Gravity may not be seen, but at least we can measure gravity:- such an ability does not exist for God. Struck a (theists) nerve, have I? Actually, that is complete shite. The Bible is a fantastic book, irregardless of religious beliefs. I've found myself turning to it despite being an atheist more and more over the past few years for moral guidance. And the history in the Bible is fantastic, and some of the books provide some the best historical records of their time around.

This is under the assumption that he does exist.

I think everyone here is both perfectly aware and compliant with the rules, thank you. Being a parent, such as a father, is a biological term applied to living things. By definition, living things die, so as such it is possible God could commit suicide. Yes, but God isn't a spirit surely? And if is, he's allegedly omnipotent- so and omnipotent spirit that can't kill itself? Well, it isn't omnipotent then, is it?

That is the sort of argument I was looking for. But doesn't it say, or at least imply, that in the holy books God is a living thing? He's almost always referred to as 'He' and Christians call him the Father. Of course, God could be an entity that is not part of any religion- ie any religion that we know right now hasn't actually got across the true message of God or know God.

Actually, it's a pretty strong argument. If God can do anything, then why can't he kill himself? Surely that defeats the meaning of being omnipotent?

I voted BNP. Not really, I put my votes towards the Liberal Democrats. Despite being a bit of a Euroskeptic myself, the Liberal Democrats have the best policies out of all the parties. And besides, if we do become part of some sort of 'Eurostate', at least we'd be the most powerful nation on Earth. They're still a million times better than the BNP, and at least some of their policies make sense. I can understand why some their concerns abour Europe are felt by them. Oh no, not the SNP... I actually can't believe why anyone in their right minds would vote for the SNP. Or the BNP for that matter.

Now that is an idea. Not a good one, but it'd be interesting to see.

I apologise if other hardcore gamers such as yourself prefer the WW. Yes, it was a stroke of genius. But the graphics... in my opinion, were just too cartoonish. The reference wasn't directed at WW; it was Phantom Hourglass. I couldn't help but feel let down after WW and TP. Nintendo added the tedious Ocean King dungeon to go back to time and time again, and that felt like the only real challenge in the game- and it was boring.

I always think that, but whenever I play a completed game, it's always boring.

Same. Please, please let this game be down the streets of OOT and TP and not the cel shaded adventures of late. They're great, but they suit the DS, and are more casual. We hardcore gamers need a more involving and darker adventure!

Does anyone remember back in the day when you'd have to wait for a completely new console for a 3D Mario game? I can't help but feel this is too soon. Nevertheless, it'll be brilliant. The graphics are looking superb, and any new ideas from Miyamoto will always go down a treat. I, for one, cannot wait.

OK, the trailer showed the game mostly in a 3rd person perspective, and there was a clip of a first person mission reminscent of Prime. Looks so good. Nintendo are completely spoiling us, and this is the sort of game that I deserve from my loyalties to Nintendo over the years. Sure, the Prime trilogy was great, but this looks set to completely take the Metroid genre forward. Brilliant.

You mean by evolution? Hmm, if that did happen, man would have a bloody big dilemma on its hands. War is the triumph of the strong over the poor, almost always in relation to some sort of resources. We couldn't just hand over our weapons and then expect to get enough to eat- there'd be no war and far less killing to keep the population at bay, and besides, some people would be greedy and take more than they need- with no armies to stop them, there'd be no competition. *Edit- unless we evolved into creatures that didn't require nutrients or food, and then we wouldn't be living things by definition. But Physics says that can't happen with its laws of conservation, unless, of course, we developed chloroplasts and photosynthesised- but then we'd still need minerals and water. This is too complicated.

...you get the idea.

As a biologist, I understand such a thing is not possible. Unless you're some kind of crazy creationist, you should know that humans are animals, and animals fight, it's nature. Perhaps we may try and diguise it by claiming to be 'civilised', but history and biology have both deemed your suggestion impossible. If we gave up our armies, it'd be back to fighting with sharp sticks and blunt tools- we're never going to get any more pacifist than we are now, it's not in our nature. EDIT- I've never encountered any of those 10 member shambles of a group before, they're a complete joke. I live in a Conservative stronghold- no overtly Labour, Lib Dem or BNP supporters for miles around! It's always nice, especially when your MP refuses to resign depite wasting your hard earned notes on irrelevant commodities!

Oh, I see. I jumped to conclusions there. The BNP is actually pretty damn mild compared to some other Neo-Nazi groups. These openly white-supremacist parties (or groups, or pub gatherings, call it what you will) have criticised the BNP for being too mild and soft, although have far too few members and illegal opinions to ever be considered a threat. They've even said the BNPs moderation means the party is made up of 'conservatives on steroids'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Peoples_Party_(2005) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_and_Honour http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_9th_Society

See, this is why the BNP are so good. They're getting the truth out there! Hey, forget about the evidence and the 6 million less Jews in Europe after WW2- it makes perfect sense that they disappeared, or suddenly caught an infectious disease that only affects Jews! This man is our future- an educated speciman that is the epitome of the male species. Oh yes, I love the way you say that as if being white would automatically qualify you for a British identity! My girlfriend is black, but she is British, you understand? She was born here to immigrant parents with British passports, and yet she is as British as I proudly am. Nationalities like British transcends race, buddy, hate to break it to you. There's no such thing as 'ethnic British'- no homo sapien evolved here, so we're all immigrants from Africa.

It's funny, the BNP seem to go against every liberal value that the Western culture they're so trying to preserve stands for.

-Involved in a fight today. -I won, obviously.

I have a typical Londoner accent. It feels good to be able to call myself a Londoner and not an, um, Kenter.

Ah, further proof that the BNP is the only party that'll lead us forwards into the 21st century and not backwards...

Does anybody have any idea of how to trace an IP address of a YouTube account? I can't settle for those old fashioned commands you have to type into the computer.

Awesome. I wish someone I knew started an argument like that on facebook, if only so I could throw in some witty insults into the mix.
