    Once again H_A reaches to the core of her understanding about the events surrounding the crucifixion and subsequent resurrection as she cites her main source -- Monty Python's Life of Brian.

    Perhaps tomorrow she'll leave us all spellbound by regaling us with her understanding of Medieval England just as soon as she finishes watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

    I'm always still in trouble again

        It's good you believe that. Means you won't get upset later when people ridicule you.

          Then why do you keep whining about it?

          Are you going to start another thread about men being such ghastly beasts to older women on the internet?

            I think Prof. Beard made her point quite eloquently.

              That much of the criticism that older women receive online comes from men. Now that's an acute observation given that half the population are men

                Generally women are far meaner to other women than men are.

                  I pointed that out. I think she went into her work/author/volume/page/publisher/date/ISBN/blood type routine.

                    There is a thread on this topic if you wish to continue with those observations.

                      1. This is not your thread. Please stop nannying.

                      B: Then stop facilitating what you complain about. The middle example you posted was in direct response to your bringing Beard up. And in your thread about Sagan more than a couple of those that got moved because you complained about a derail were from you, fully participating in it.

                      III) I forgot what the third one was while typing out the rest, and does anyone wanna bet I'll prolly think of it a couple minutes after posting... unless I catch up on some of all those shows and movies stored in my DVR

                        I am simply pointing out that if you want to continue to comment on Prof. Beard's remarks there is thread on which you may do so.

                        In response to this written by you:

                        Then why do you keep whining about it?

                        Are you going to start another thread about men being such ghastly beasts to older women on the internet?:

                        Is this further evidence of you suffering short term memory loss?

                            Not exactly. It is [apparently] from the Old English cracian meaning "to make an explosive noise".

                              Once again, you managed to miss the point.

                              I guess I'll have to be more clear. You said you are here for the fun, but you don't actually say what it is that gives you fun here, which would be the reason WHY you post here.
