  1. you say it tells 'us' something..

    what does it tell you pete1950 MBE
     
  2. So Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, Muslims, Rastafarians, and Zoroastrians are all in on the Freemason conspiracy, along with aliens, bigfoot and the CIA guy who shot JFK?
     
  3. Its just Pete1950 being obstreperous again.
     
  4. yeh.....whats new
     
  5. I reckon Anarchy UK should publish their list of members, now that its been established they are far worse, all of them, than a far right facist group who preach hate and distrust as their mantra. And the BNP as well as the lobbyists for the Euro Cash Trail... ;-)
     
  6. That's not even remotely a syllogism, is it? Whether or not you agree with the original premise.
     
  7. Enough of the lawyer speak on here, and more of the stonemason please.:rolleyes: I don't need to be googling every time.
     
  8. Ha! Kettle, pot.... black...
     
  9. interesting thread, normal suspects patronishing others for saying their views and i wonder why people actually are willing to give their views to get jumped on by the big cheeses

    just my two pennys worth, ,from people i know who are involved , its just a good place to make local business contacts and the rituals are purely traditional more than anything else
     
  10. I don't believe you'll get an answer - I asked him to explain some of his opinions (and have done so in other threads in the past) but he doesn't answer. I usually think of him as a forum troll with a large vocabulary.
     
  11. Only Masons are religious.
    He's religious, therefore a Mason.

    A syllogism


    All masons are religious
    He's religious, therefore a Mason.

    Not a syllogism.
     
  12. Do you really want to be spoon-fed pre-digested thoughts in simplified words? I was rather hoping you would be able to do some thinking for yourself, pb; hence my prompt. I generally assume folk on here are intelligent, knowledgeable people able to understand English, think for themselves, and post their own opinions as and when they choose - unless they indicate otherwise.
     
  13. Glass half full, eh..?
     
  14. Extraordinary! I am always ready - some would say over eager - to explain my opinions and to provide as many facts and arguments as anyone has patience to read, or even more. Feel free to PM me, or start a new thread, or revive an old one, if there is anything you want to discuss, cockneyjanner. Some threads attract dozens of posts - surely you don't expect me to respond to every point? Nobody else does.
     
  15. so totally avoid answering your own point and presumptions.

    your one big cliche
     
  16. Are you saying that you didn't know what a syllogism was before? But that you do now? If so, a thank you to Glidd would be in order.
     
  17. And there's me thinking it was rather a nice dessert...............

  20. Dunno. I do.
    But then I like words - part of the reason for engaging with this forum. I like writing.

    If I stopped to wonder whether the words I wrote would be understood, I'd have to start simplifying my thoughts and what fun would that be? What's abstruse (oh-oh - is that another one I shouldn't use?) to one person will be patently obvious to someone else.

    In the case in point, syllogism (or the argument not being one) was exactly want I wanted to say. You don't want me to start paraphrasing myself, do you?

    No. You don't.
