Default Why do suicide bombers kill themselves and others

" wrote in

The suicide bomber has been taught by his religious teachers that he

And that when he dies he will go to "heaven" to be received by pretty
girls who will receive him and treat him like a hero.


I read somewhere, or saw the statistic in a documentary, that over 5,500
people per DAY, across the planet, die in the name of one religion or the
other. They've been killing each other off, precisely as Darwin predicted,
for thousands and thousands of years, "natural selection".

That goes on, unabated by education, sanity, logic, etc. Homo Sapiens is
about the only self-destructive animal on the planet.....

And, they are the ones with their fingers poised on the promised
armagheddon they so strongly believe in. I think the stupid asses think
as soon as they press the button, there's gonna be some force that sucks
them outa their cars into that utopia with all the virgins.

Christians have as bad a history of genocide as Jews and Muslims.
However, they have, recently at least, had far better genocide machines
to carry it out.

As this insanity spreads and becomes even more rooted (think American
religious zealots since Jim Jones), we come closer and closer to that
magic day of human extinction when that button is pressed by the minions
of the religious right. Which cult matters not. The results will be
identical.

You are blaming suicide bombers in Iraq on the relegious right in the USA?

Are you totally F'n nuts?

Hey,
The Overcomer Ministry has a short wave radio spot. I have listened to
him and his pretence of being able to read Biblical Greek -
entertaining if it wasn't so scary.

Rev Stair had a dream of owning his own pirate radio station aboard a
retired Canadian offshore fishing vessel. His captain for the project
was an American who lives in St Kitts/Nevis, who is a ham radio operator
I met on the local 2 meter VHF repeater when he brought the boat to a
local boatyard to install the 70KW HF/MF broadcast transmitter into the
old fish hold directly under its main hatch. The boat was old, but quite
large. Two 100KW diesel gensets were welded to the main deck fore and
aft to power it. Extra diesel tanks were installed every place they
would fit to power it between trips to port for fuel. It drank lots of
diesel at full power. The transmitter was purchased as scrap from Voice
Of America. It's picture is he
http://hawkins.pair.com/voanc/voanc07.jpg

The captain got worried about the motives of the bearded "brothers" from
the cult's commune in Canadys, SC, carrying a handgun at all times. He
wanted out, as did his elderly engineer, who had formerly helped him
install a big FM transmitter into an old sailboat they anchored in
international waters off NY City to broadcast pirate radio to NYC from a
microwave transmitter ashore at the studio when FCC wouldn't give them a
license. (The Navy sank the sailboat after removing them by force.)

So, they lit this beast off at Halsey-Cannon Boatyard in the Wando River,
SC, tied up about 50' off the Boatyard dock. 70,000 watts of HF power
lit every flourescent light at the boatyard, briefly, until the 300,000
volt feedthrough insulator that fed the RF through the hold's hatch cover
to the T cage antenna between two big towers welded to the bow/stern
exploded...right over my head, by the way. Way too much fun was had. On
top of the transmitter in the webpage picture, notice the big insulators
coming out the top of the power amp cabinet, 2nd from the right with the
big final tubes in it? A copper pipe makeshift balanced feed connected
that to the bottom of the feedthrough conductor inside the big insulator.

As a souvenir of this fiasco, I kept the part that didn't fully explode,
just had a little arc until we got the transmitter shut down. You can
see me holding the insulator on my QRZ ham webpage at:
http://www.qrz.com/callsign
Just put w4csc into the callsign search box top left of the page....

That little black burn mark was caused by excessive ionization of us all
inside the hold....We glowed blue for a few minutes! When it broke off,
the bolt holding the shaft down the middle of it kept it from being
smashed. The top looks like what I'm holding in my hand....it simply
exploded into a million pieces to small to save.

Noticing the "Big Signal" at the FCC monitoring stations from subsequent
test transmissions near 7.4 Mhz, FCC swooped down on the boat with a
crane stolen from the contractor Navy shipyard and confiscated all the
gear, even the broadcast studio on the main deck. The local paper showed
the FCC engineer proudly displaying the contraband, holding a 35 watt
Heathkit CW ham transmitter up for the photo op, making him look like a
complete idiot to anyone who knew what it was. The captain fled to St
Kitts and the old engineer vanished, leaving the brothers and RG Stair
holding the bag, so to speak.

It wasn't going to happen, anyways. The intensive RF current flowing out
of the hull into the salt water was just eating holes into the hull they
could not stop. FCC did them a favor and saved lives....(c; The first
indication was when the fresh water tank suddenly got all salty,
overnight as its hull wall flooded it....not good....

You have to hear Rev Stair in person to see how scary religious zealots
really are....if you don't know Ted Armstrong or Jim Jones.

I must admit glowing blue WAS a lot of fun. It's why I guffaw so hard
when someone warns me about cellphone radiation hazards at .15 watts...
(c; Too funny.

PPS - Don't send emails to the account listed...its bogus.

This is way off topic of course, but I hate to see
Ted Armstrong's name mentioned in the same
sentence as this Rev Stair, and Jim Jones.

Ted was a lusty SOB, ex-navy, ex-smoker, and got
kicked out of the church his dad started for
compulsive gambling, excessive partying, and
supposedly fornicating with his secretary. He
died a few years back, after getting kicked out of
the church _he_ started for basically the same
reasons.

I can still hear his voice coming from the radio:
"And greetings friends around the world... This is
Garner Ted Armstrong bringing you the plain truth
about todays world news and the prophesies
of...the world tommorow." Takes me back to the
late 1960's and early 1970's.

I met him in person a few times back in the mid
70's--entertaining fellow, and not really scary at
all. I don't know what happened with him after that.
