So murder in the service of 'perceived' national security is an unfair analogy? are they somehow ethically different? So far, I haven't seen a point illustrating my apparent error in reasoning or common sense, just heavy-handed jabbing. Let's hear it, how is this an unfair analogy?

haha 4cY. Glad you got the joke.
I knew you would though. haha. I started to laugh when I typed out the 'welcome to Jesus' part cause I was saying it in my mind like a bad Southern Preacher.

(Mar 3 06, 08:43)gruntt's father? he yelled at me for calling too late the other night. something about, "stop sending adult beverages to my son."

That's an interesting point, Mimio. Honestly, I don't know where I stand on this issue of the "military offensive". On one hand I can definitely see the relationship to mass murder, but on the other hand, the threat to security must be factored in, which then of course raises the issue of the legitimacy of the threat, etc... etc...

"Government failures at home and the war in Iraq found a confluence in Katrina’s wake that graphically illustrates the need for fundamental social change, lest we suffer worse disasters in the future.
In a pre-9/11 report, the Federal Emergency Management Agency had listed a major hurricane in New Orleans as one of the three most likely catastrophes to strike the United States. The others: a terrorist attack in New York and an earthquake in San Francisco."

kOna, about Lent. i only now realize where the Dutch word Lente (Spring) comes from..
- ********0
why sourced to dutch? surely a latin rite?
- ********0
dunno.
- paraselene0
the germanic (english) word for lent does not originate in the romance languages, despite the fact that the rite itself is originally roman-catholic (i presume - not actually sure on that).
eg.
spanish : quaresma
french : carême
etc.there are heaps of explanations for it. one being perhaps that the germanic tongues adopted the dutch word for spring rather than the latinate word for lent, perhaps out of convenience, perhaps out of defiance.
who knows?

I'm just glad the Conservatives in Canada are not like the Republicans in the USA. I actually don't completely hate Stephen Harper. Which doesn't mean I'll vote for him next time, but we'll see. I'll just continue to read my many Liberal papers and news :P
