No big deal, I just wanted to point out that to most people the term minister is for one who has strong [positive] religious beliefs, rather than obtaining the title for some other reason. I thought from discussions (going back a couple of years) that you really supported the effort to remove God from the Pledge, no? Also, I remember someone (can't remember who) had linked the pig flying thing to an atheist concept, but maybe that person was wrong.Anyway, like I said, to each their own. We... [ More ]

Thomas Covenant — Sat, 21 May 2005 05:17:05 GMT

There is nothing deceptive about my title, as it is legal and available to all without regard to belief. Although even I admit that it lacks credibility in some circles. I did post an antipodal website when someone posted a Save the Pledge website. It was intended as an opposing view. But it's not really an issue with me. When pigs fly is just an idiom used to express something that will never happen. As far as I know it doesn't have any significance in the atheist community.

Thomas,That hardly seems possible, unless you got that title as some kind of ruse.I do have a good memory for these things, and I know (for example) that you were even for removing God from the Pledge of Allegance. Also, the when pigs fly image (as I recall) has some meaning or significance other than an innocent lottery reference, right?To each their own, but I just wanted to set the record straight.

Not exactly. It's one spool, about 12 feet long, it has 4068 plastic threads on it each 70,000 feet long. It fits on the back of a loom. When the loom runs out, I put another 12 foot spool in it and tie 4068 threads so it will have a continuous sheet of carpet backing. A machine does this, of course, I just set up the machine.
