  1. I mean look at Frozen the girl who falls for the guy Anna looks prepubscent but is falling for a guy who actually looks like an adult??.

    Let it go. :)

    On a general note, I do sometimes wonder whether looking too deeply into things that some may describe as harmless fun is the right thing to do. I don't know the true intentions of the people creating that type of content. Are they truly creating films and TV shows as throwaway entertainment that is purely escapism and fantasy (not literal fantasy like dragons, etc), or is there something more insidious at play, such as a hidden agenda that's included in these various mediums to gradually chip away at young minds?

    Of course, equipping children with the necessary knowledge and support at home means any hypothetical attempts at social programming will be rendered moot, but that takes time and effort on the part of parents.

  2. So no, I don't think he was necessarily an evil man (I don't know his history) but I don't discount the fact that he could be an average Joe in a seriously unenviable position who snapped and did the worse thing he possibly could have when it happened.

    That's my feelings on what most likely occurred. He lost it. Snapped.

  3. That poor girl's death sentence was more or less signed, sealed and delivered by that police officer.

    Yes, that's exactly what crossed my mind.

    Clearly, I don't agree with the daughter's actions in any way or form, teenage rebellion or not, but her death was avoidable if the cops had been a bit careful.

  4. I'm very surprised at the lack of discretion and awareness of certain Islamic cultural issues on the part of the police officer who reported the daughter's crime to the father. You'd think he or she has read the newspaper or seen the news to realise there's quite a few cases where Muslim fathers have been known to kill their young daughters over matters such as these.

    The cops get in touch with the parents and just blurt out, "Your girl's been caught nicking jonnies." That's just careless. Why not tell the parents she's been done for theft and leave the prophylactic tidbit out of the conversation? Very strange.

  5. Chances are, if you honestly admit to it, most women will completely understand. They might themselves admit to something similar. Who knows, they may even find you more charming because of it.

    That's very true. I don't agree with it, but it's something that is becoming prevalent in the mentality of a certain type of female.

  6. If you read them all they all conveniently occur when certain civilizations are on the brink of destruction. Like it's just a way to wake people up and rebuild them to stop evil jesus coming.

    Yep, absolutely. These prophecies have been around for thousands of years, and I assume they'll continue to run for thousands more. In the end life goes on as it always has done, save for a few minor upheavals and changes which are to be expected through human existence.

  7. Anti-Christ? What was Jesus? If an Anti-Christ did exist people would be more righteous, (Jesus was a liar and a stupid man), have you ever heard Jesus humbling saying, "Sab Te Vada Satgur Nanak Jin Kal Rakhi Meri" No! That pakhandi baba who's just like Gurbachana said, "Nobody comes to the father except through me". I'd assume the Anti-Christ would be humble and intelligent and not a freakin' liar to his own people.

    Per your definition, someone worse than Christ, lol.

    He will speak the language of peace and unification, but his true goal shall be to destroy. It's fantasy IMO, but a lot of fun.

  8. That will be shiva then.

    Nah, there's a Semitic one supposedly. I've been reading about him since I was a kid. Prophecies about wars between nations and religions and all that. I was semi-serious, but some of the things I've been reading on the net in the past 13-14 years seemed far fetched at the time (they were stable middle-eastern countries back then), but gradually the names of countries that I read back then are now destabilising, and I'm beginning to get a bit tetchy, lol.

  9. Where did you get this from? I've known people affiliated to a jatha supporting Jagraj Singh. What causes division is when people become so engrossed in their beliefs that they begin to lack understanding of different people outside of it. Your thinking is identical to a non-religious person saying religion causes division. No, it’s not; it is people's attitude and lack of respect that does. Personally, I do not even associate myself with any sikh even though I believe in certain practices from a jatha. I respect Jagraj Singh regardless, but even if Jagraj Singh was affiliated to a jatha, I still would not be crowing about him from the roof-tops. In your mentality, how do you explain a sikh like myself that has a strong admiration for other cultures/people outside of sikhi? It makes no sense.

    The ones who live and breathe for their Jatha at the exclusion of all balance and fairness. You don't strike me as someone who is blind to someone's value outside of the affiliations they hold, be they sect, religion, race, etc. Not everyone approaches life in that way.

  10. But can we truly ask for such a favor? xD. Actually favor is a too much of a bland term. Such an honor is more accurate.

    I think we can always ask, but the question is always whether that request will be granted according to what will help us progress, or if someone else is before us in the queue. But then that throws up so many other questions that impact on concepts such as free will, preordained destinies, etc, I think I'd be going OT, lol. Fascinating stuff regardless. I guess we'll find out for sure one day. :)

  11. Fair enough lol. Though you'd think that Waheguru would put you in the blessed line as the most wise beings ever to walk the Earth, you'd think it would inspire you to become such kind and gentle beings. Some of the Guru Sahib's family were amazing in their own right. But Prithi Chand seemed to have lost his way.

    This is conjecture on my part, but he was probably a bad 'un before he was born as Prithi Chand, but requested birth in Guru Ji's home as a chance to atone for previous mistakes, so he must've had a few redeeming qualities.

    Who did he come into contact with that tipped him over the edge? If we are to assume he and Guru Arjan Dev Ji were raised together and spent most of their lives together as children and young adults, why did one go off towards the dark side and the other developed the qualities that would lead him to be chosen as Guru? There has to be something more and deeper than environment IMO.

  12. I personally think its down to Environment completely. Blaming our souls could play a part in it lol but like your example. Prithi Chand was born in the same direct lineage as divinity but spent most of life conspiring against Guru Arjun Dev Ji and then trying to kill Guru Hargobind Ji lol.

    It's strange how things play out. Human nature is an enigma.

    I'm not blaming. Not at all. That would suggest the concept has defeated me and I'm an unwitting bystander as I make mistake after mistake. Environment has a role to play once we are incarnated, but before that and almost the constant background accompaniment to our lives, I think it's soul experience has a huge part to play. It's terribly unscientific, but I'm okay with that, lol.

  13. I googled his name and the first picture that came up was Tommy Robinson or something. the EDL bloke. He's some bald guy which was a bit of a disappointment.

    One of a few examples that lends credence to my belief that genetics and "blood" hold little value in these situations, when in fact it's the sum of our experiences as souls spanning lifetimes that impacts why we are the way we are. Of course, nurture also has a part to play, but not as great as it's thought to be.

  14. Indeed, my sentiments exactly. U c, only uk sikhs will know, wat these uk muslims (mostly p@kis) r like. N.american muslims, especially canadian muslims, r yet to show their intolerance for kuffars/non believers.

    North American Sikhs think those of us in the UK exaggerate or even fabricate the Islamic menace. The reason they haven't been exposed to that type of behaviour from the Muslims over there is because it's still, comparatively, early days. The Muslims are still acclimatising to the US, getting their feet under the table, testing the waters. Give it another 20 or so years and N.A. Sikhs will be faced with the same issues we've been faced with since the 80's. Admittedly, not all of them are like that, but when they start to increase in number, their true nature shines through.

  15. Weekend getaways are good way to escape, relax & detox.

    You can visit Amritsar, Hazoor Sahib, Anandpur Sahib even Hemkunt Sahib.

    Singh Ji, I'd hardly call a journey up into the Himalayan mountains regions to Hemkunt Sahib as a "weekend getaway." :)

    It's far from relaxing. I spent most of my time up there wondering when I was going to slip and fall to my watery death thousands of feet below. Admittedly, upon entering the actual complex it was a feeling like no other, but getting there and going back down was a tortuous experience.
