Use  
writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
writing haskell makes your life easier:
reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

Sorry pal, didn't see this thread.
What are you planning on debating? How many live goats you can fit into a Hyundai Accent?
I'm very busy today but I'll do my best to keep on the ball.

Jamie, I'm almost certain I will read them trough at least the first one at my xmas holiday  (thanks again for lending me them)
Arb, I have a range of quotes from the Read This---> thread by you and see that you are the perfect candidate for advocating against religion because it is a source for hatered.
If you're too busy it's ok to start it another day, but i have all the time so you can choose the tempo of replies

hmm I would like to join but
a) I cant take arbiters side because i dont agree with his statements on well you know..
b) i cant take kedamans side, because well you know why..
I find this thread to be not so fair because one of the arguer will be one that thins religion causes hate, while other feels (or will not promote) religous benefits...)
to make this fair...
a religous person (and not me.. perhaps jesus4u?), kedaman, and arbiter then the rest of us have the 3 options to side with if this thread is in approperiate, let me know i will delete it
First, I want all replies not made by those who are not part of the discussion to go here, I copied this here now so you can delete it now kovan. You argue that it is not fair to have one to argue for religion, as there is one against. In fact the deal is such a conversation would not work out. The focus on the discussion is rather to locate the source of hate than to debate whether religion is good or not. If you want such an argument, it can go here in this thread. If you want to inhibit anything into the discussion you can quote directly from that thread into this, i will discuss in both. Point is that "Solution to religious debates" thread stays clean and simple.
