Some of us like to see how science explains life. I mean really - the best they've managed to come up with is some inexplicable 'big bang' theory.God is not that great an answer to the ultimate beginning question either, after all, how did god come into existence?

Back to the question we go................

It wasn't said that it was the sole cause of war.

Thats a generalisation too. As a former Jaffa I didn't hate the South, I liked it so much I moved there.

.

The thing with science is they make observations, come up with theories based on those observations and then test them.
This can be a long involved process and until such time as a theory is proven beyond doubt its still a theory.

Unlike religion.

Because science hasn't arrived at a beyond all doubt tested theory yet doesn't mean its useless. its not the easiest thing to test is it?

Because of that we should dismiss it and latch on to some totally outrageous ridiculous rubbish that religion states as true? I don't think so...

It was supposed to be a generalisation.
I am sure all Shias don't hate all Sunni's,the fact remains that we love to hate someone.

why is jaffa censored when spelt with one f?The reason the J word is censored is because there was a thread that ended up getting closed which was about people from the south venting their irrational anger against people from the north. Some of us down here made such asses of ourselves that it was decided to add the J word to the rude word list.

All this goes to show that some just love divisions as a means to dump on others. ):

Yeah lets get off the relgious arguments .

And this is true, the Jaffa thing in my opinion came about due to feelings of insecurity by certain mainlanders who had the idea people in Auckland are self-centred, rich and think they are better in some way .

Its not actually true, might be with some people but most people who have never been there have no idea how diversified Auckland is, Otara versus Howick, Massey versus Waiheke etc etc .
All types, rich an poor .
And they are probably spending more time worrying about their mortgages and traffic than other places in NZ .

Some Aucklanders are big girls blouses, And so a word that is now intergrated into Kiwiana was deemed inapropiate for the tender folk.
