An atheist doesn't believe in the existence of any gods. That's all it means. Admittedly many atheist also hold the same views about religion as many on this thread but not necessarily.

Didn't say that either. Maybe you should go back and read the thread again.

You know full well that's not what I said.

What a load of rubbish so if a good person does bad it automatically religion based so when someone cheats on a partner because she has lost love for them its religion fault so when someone robs someone become they have no money and want to feed there family its religion fault so when someone murders someone because he was driving to fast its religion fault or do you think all that stuff isnt bad Not a particularly good people then are they (well the last one is just a poor example). Besides I think you've misunderstood the quote. Think more along the lines of, denying your child medical care because you believe god will save them. Don't take it quite so literally. Ooh that sounded like religion then

None religious people do good things too. It doesn't take religious belief to be charitable. Your figure 90% of people helping after natural disasters etc is clearly plucked out of thin air, unless you can evidence it? “With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.†― Steven Weinberg

I'm not saying that no good at all comes from religion, I just don't agree with your original comment that there is no harm in religion. Very far from it.

You should perhaps read a couple of holy books. Have done Did you just skip all the parts about rape, murder, hate, oppression of women, etc etc? Well I suppose that's what priests and the like do, which is why most religious people hardly follow the 'rules' of their religion at all. The religious cherry pick what they want to hear. As vile as religious extremist are, they are often the ones actually doing what their holy book tells them to do.

You should perhaps read a couple of holy books.

I got a bike again a year ago after about a 5 year break. I'd only ever had sports bikes, but I bought an FZ6 as an insurance builder and apart from a massive lack of power I actually quite like it. I feel I may be getting old.

Or a sign from god

Depends if you've got the add-in installed http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=7 How about using conversion software for converting other types of document to PDF. Or, printing a web page to PDF which is what I use it for.

Earlier in the year I attended christening. I was reluctant to go but caved in the end. It was totally cringe worthy and even maddening. The crap that's spouted is just unbelievable. These were not even religious parents either, which begs the question why would they even have their child christened in the first place. I have now vowed never to attend any kind of religious ceremony again. I can't bear to listen to it again. EDIT: Angry typos

Nice one, just what I needed

I'm an Atheist, and I also despise religion and the affect it has on the world. People can believe in what ever fairy tales they like as long as they keep to themselves and out of politics, law, etc. Think logically about the claims that religion makes I fail to see how anyone can possibly believe it. Gods described in holy books are evil murderous b******s and why anyone would wish them to be real and kiss their ass is beyond me. If I'm wrong about the existence of gods then I just hope Hitchens has had a chance to kick him in the bollocks.

There's quite a bit of info here: http://www.briskoda....as/?hl= dashcam Quite a few of the Briskoda crowd have got cameras. And this guy on YouTube has reviewed loads of different ones: https://www.youtube.com/user/Techmoan Also check with your insurance company because as ridiculous as it sounds, some of them treat them as a mod. Anything to increase your premium/not pay a claim

How much difference does the spring actually make to how heavy the pedal is? I assume the spring doesn't help to keep the pedal up too?

After plenty of searching for a cure for the common clicky clutch pedal problem, the only answer I can find is keep lubing it. Well after going through half a can of white grease it's the same. So has anyone found a better cure, or know what the actual cause is? Also, if I strip it down to have a closer look at it, does the mechanism go back together easily or is it one of those that's a bitch to reassemble? Ta!

Well that's one thing that might be normal then (even though it's odd). As above, the reset was done. EDIT: Typo

If you just remove your foot off the gas, then normally a car would drop right down to normal idle speed if you let it. In my car it's as though it keeps some throttle on. The cruise control problem can't be normal. It's quite violent as it goes on and off he gas. It only has to be a slight decline and as the car starts to pick up speed it comes of the gas, then as it slows down it gets back on it and this is all very jerky. It goes on/off throttle every second or so. I've never heard of normal cruise control applying the brakes either.

In my 2007 HR, 1. When sat idling, give it a rev and as the revs drop it momentarily stops at 1500 revs before the revs then slowly drop to normal idle speed. Normal? 2. Driving along and take your foot off the gas and allow the car to coast, it won't drop below 1250 revs. This can catch you out when slowing down say from a 60 to a 30 limit as you don't expect it. Drop the clutch and the revs drop to normal idle, it just doesn't drop when it in gear clutch up. Also have a small problem with the cruise control 'hunting' when going down hill and set to a lower speed, say 50mph. Set it at motorway cruising speed and it seems to work fine, but set a lower speed (therefore lower revs) the throttle on/off is very snatchy when you go down hill. When it's pulling on the flat or up hill it's fine. Both throttle bodies were a bit gunky so they've been cleaned and reset using a G-Scan machine. Idle speed is around 500rpm or 800 with air con on (by the tacho not properly measured) Next thoughts were check for air leaks and clean the MAF's. Anyone had a similar issue?

Me too. My thought at the time was that it wasn't much of a sellng point

Mine has arrived and is installed. Nice work Ian, top man
