Likewise, Freudâ€™s creation of the three aspects of the mind may not have been influenced by the Holy Trinity, whereâ€™s the evidence? (incidentally, he was an Ashkenazi Jew)

freud knew crap-all about judaism. he wasn’t at all conversant with religious texts or traditional interpretation and the vast majority of his patients were neurotic middle-class assimilated viennese jews like himself. his big idea about G!D – “it’s your dad in a big beard in the sky”; i mean, honestly. way to reduce a 3000 year old religious tradition with complexity way out of his experience (although, ironically, not jung’s) to an ignorant shibboleth. of course, “everybody knows” (according to some bloke down the pub, presumably) there’s nothing original in judaism, it was all nicked from the egyptians. gaaaah.

Are you still fed up that the BBC is infested with Muslim lovers and that India is so full of dhimmis?

Vikrant, you’re really very rude.

Did you get bored on Jihadwatch?

Don,
The Bible Moralisee is a very famous and ancient picture
(see Sister Wendeys history of art). It shows the “Cosmic EGG”). Georges LemaÃ®tre actually called it the “Cosmic Egg”… Others then renamed it the “Big Bang” as a joke.

Alright Amir don’t sweat it – I didn’t mean it.

Sorry [blush, blush]
I haven’t the foggiest who anyone is on this blog:

Amir, you come across as really pompous and patronising sometimes,

…And that’s pretty harsh coming from someone who doesn’t know me either.

I believe the adolescents these days invoke such colloquial terms frequently Rohin.

Haha, Amir, he of flighty jargon, explaining ‘son’ to Jay. “It means ‘one of the lads’, don’t you know” he said as he lit his pipe and slipped into his smoking jacket. This is priceless.

Jay, are you familiar with argot such as ‘man’ or ‘dude’. I hear these words have been subverted by the errant youth, how awfully droll.

By: Amir

Amir — Sat, 13 May 2006 23:56:54 +0000

Jay,
â€˜Sonâ€™ is a new slang word â€“ kindaâ€™ like the Asian equivalent to â€˜dudeâ€™. No offence intended â€“ honestly. It means â€˜one of the ladsâ€™,â€¦ although, to be fair, I can see how a Sikh warrior could get offended by a young, inexperienced wannabe like myself with no regard for age!

Amir, you come across as really pompous and patronising sometimes,

I blame it on the jargon.

“So: Have you guys decided already to ditch the bit about â€˜self-criticismâ€™?”

Yes.

No.

Maybe.

People will criticise and I will decide which to listen to. This system is flawless. If you disagree, please raise your hand now. You can speak when I point to you.

Amir, you come across as really pompous and patronising sometimes, like that time when you congratulated me for my blog and said, ‘Well done son’ – you joker!

Chill bwana and stop being patronising – Sunny keep it in there just to keep Amir itching.
