Ah lads, I'm hungry now after reading that and I ate the last half pack of bickies last night after you started this. Bleedin nora.

Tread carefully, smokingman....I'm not sure what the Whacky stick is for. I'm only an initiate

I'm as traditionally Irish as you get, but chocolate digestives are just the whore of the biscuit world in my eyes. They're fine, they get the job done, but they don't make you sigh and think, "Fnck yeah" afterwards. You choose chocolate digestives when you feel like tea and biccies but can't find anything better.

I have to go with something that probably doesn't fit the biscuit description - American-style chocolate chip cookies. The guys that are the size of your fist and are soft. Oh and the chocolate chips are soft too. With a good cup of tar: bliss.

What are us atheists supposed to do when we've done wrong and feel guilty and shame and need to repent?

Because I can't help myself except to be serious:
You should only feel guilt or shame when you've injured someone else. Actions which do not cause injury to another party == guilt-free. When you have injured someone else, you repent by apologising or making things right with the party in question.

Religion is much easier than non-religion because they get to beg forgiveness from themselves in their own head without having to actually face the consequences and deal with the people who've been injured by their actions.

Displacement of blame; possibly the reason why the majority of convicts are religious?

One prefers Kessler and Colcannon....though it is dashed hard to get proper kessler in Ireland.

Luckily there is a butcher here in the People's Republic that has the secret of smoking ham in a Germanic way.

As for that boiled fatty hunk of dead pig, dry-up exploded spuds and cabbage that has been boiled in brine until it resembles horse vomit that passes for traditional Irish food....*gag*.

Ah yes. The great Biscuit debate of the 16th century.

Luther : 'Das ist eine biscuit'
Calvin : 'Non. It iz a waffer'
Pope : 'It's the Body of Christ'
Anabaptists: 'Die Posh Gits.'
Knox : 'Are yoo en-joying that? Noooo en-joying!'
Anglicans : 'Cucumber sandwich anyone? We've cut the crusts off'.

Yes - I teach the controversy!

Yeah, but moist and juicy ham, properly cooked new potatoes, and some steamed white cabbage.... Lob a good wholegrain mustard in there, and proper country butter on the spuds, and it's a meal fit for any three heads of state you care to name.

I'm not buying into your biscuit revisionism! Away with ya!

If you deconstruct it to a quantum level...nah, I'm not going there!

Oh dear, not a fight about the difference between biscuits and cakes. I have seen that one turn to levels of violence that make the Anti Cartoon Islamics seem like peace loving Jains.
