``Capitalist Catcalls Give Marxist Dogma A Migraine.``

You can relate to that cant you, Paracha? But that`s what the doctor ordered. I`m afraid eternal Marxies like you are doomed to suffer eternal headaches.

Mr. Paracha, I have been reading your columns for so long that I don`t even remember...I go through phases of LIKING it and yet HATING it at the same time...does that make any sense? :) But anyway, it`s fun reading you...you suck! :)

paracha - you can call me an anarchist or marxist or fascist all you want, but i take offence to you calling me a vegeterian. An apology is demanded.

and when you talk to Nass, it reminds me of a friend who used to talk to himself.

Thank you, tintin. You`re a gem.

#20 by sameerJB
Those were great, Sameer. Proof that all religions sink alike.

#21 by atif2
That isn`t me, silly man. That is tintingem pretending to be Nass aspiring to be baaghiraja conspiring to be YOU!! And I have evidence that not only are you a Marxist and an Anarchist, but a Vegetarian as well! Shame on you.

#22 by escapist
Yes I do. I can pay for you too, y`know.

#24 by Nass
Can you be a little more specific about the ``give anything`` bit?

#25 by atif2
If you insist.

rgds,

nass - you said ``Oh my God. I`d give anything to see the expression on your face, Nadeem. :)``

nass - you don`t have to give anything for that. Just look into the mirror - you ARE nadeem as I stated (backed by evidence) in post # 16. :)

now I`d give anything to see the expression on YOUR face, nass err.. Paracha :)

Hey Nadeem - I read your profile and this is what it says ``Marxist/Anarchist student activist in the mid & late ‘80s. ``

So have you grown-up since?

NFP:

[Deobandi Group Says Pop Music is Quyamat Ki Nishani.
·Berelvi Group Says Cable TV is Quyamat Ki Nishani.
·Shia Group Says Fast Food is Quyamat Ki Nishani.
·Confucius Group Says Ping Pong is Quyamat Ki Nishani. ]

This understanding of differences between various belief systems reminds me of something I read several years ago in either Utne Reader or Mother Jones magazines. It was called ``a guide to world religions``. Some of which I can recall are posted below.

A Guide to World Religions

Taoism: sh1t happens
Confusanism: Confusius says, sh1t happens
Buddhism: What is the sound of sh1t happening
Hindusim: This sh1t has happened before
Islam: sh1t happens because it is the will of allah
Catholicism: sh1t happens because you are bad
Protestanism: let this sh1t happen to somebody else
Calvinism; sh1t happens because you did not work hard
Judaism: how can we profit from this sh1t
Zarathustraism: sh1t happens half the time
Existentialism: living in world full of sh1t
Anarchism: Lets make more sh1t
Athesim: say no to sh1t and move on
Zen: say yes to sh1t and move on
Southern Baptists: sh1t happens to mederates
Seventh Day Advintists: no sh1t on Saturdays
Jehovah Witness: only 144000 are gonna get out of this sh1t
Rastafarianism: lets smoke this sh1t
Sunnism: sh1t stopped
Shiaism: sh1t continued
Deobandiam: no shit without mullahs
Barelvism: no sh1t without sufis/ pirs
Ahmedism: no sh1t without our imam
Ismailism: no sh1t without our imam
Wahabism: holy sh1t

Those were pretty good. i`ll add `em to the list.

huma, aimie & aquarious
Gracias.

Urstruly
Sex is profane too. It sure pays. But chowk doesn`t.

Nass
Only buttholes pigeion-hole. And pigeion-holing limits the whole picture. Make that, hole picture. Gross? I know. But then some.

Feedback
Atif1 likes you. Maybe that`s why dogma doesn`t like catcalls.

Warlus
Zia-ul-Haq who?

Coolhand
No, I don`t know what you mean?

Jang
Subroto says thank you.

atif1
If you insist. Or are you me too?

Hey atif2...chill man!
So what if Paracha is doing what you say he`s doing? Being a narcissi ain`t no crime. And yes, hats off to Paracha again for being the creative genius he is. And I am not just referring to the article here ;)

Ok fine. Kill me for saying this but Nass, Warlus, and Feedback are in fact Paracha himself. I skimmed through their previous interacts and lo! 90% of all of their interacts are in regards to Paracha. All these interactors mysteriously appear each time Paracha writes an article, and they all talk about the paracha`s alleged bouts of ``breakdowns`` and ``drugs`` and ``zia -ulhaq`s jails`` etc etc.

So here is my certified theory. Paracha is writing all this stuff on Paracha`s board to create some sort of `cult figure` around Paracha. Unfortunately, this effort is a failure.

Now go ahead and kill me.

Regards

Atif
