    The test is seriously flawed.
    Question number one should've been "Do you believe in god"

    Why?
    Bias

    On the test issue. I also don't think the test needs to ask do you believe in God. Do you think that would ensure you are on the saintly side of the scale?? You can believe in God and still be a bad person. It was a bit of fun, hardly something you would call insightful but I'd have to say my rating was somewhat expected.

    Any person that presents this test to others should rightly check themselves.
    If you believe in god you are stupid....therefore lends to a bias test.

    Are you insinuating that I believe in god?

    Sounds more like someone who took this test didn't like their results.

    No.
    The people who created this test should've included the question.

    Should I say that those who don't believe are stupid? Shit no! While I believe and have no problem proclaiming as such, I have many friends and people I know who walk the whole spectrum of religious or non-religious beliefs. Personally, I enjoy learning from everyone. I guess that requires all parties involved to be willing to take into account that there are people with different beliefs and just because those beliefs are different certainly doesn't make them "stupid." That is a show of close mindedness which I would guess is what any type of belief in God would be to those referring to a believer as "stupid."

    Bleugh Sunday night bedtime...suspect tomorrow may be the most depressing Monday of the year. Christmas is gone, all the decorations are finally down and the barren early months of the year spread out before us with very little to look forward to. Happy Monday everyone :tongue:

    Sort of what was on my mind after reading the last 30 posts and seeing one person bait the hell out of everyone else.

    What is on my mind now is: How do the mods suspend people yet let this one person do their best to pee in everyone's cornflakes? So wild.

    If you are in pain, go for the MRI.
    If no pain but still "not 100% healthy", then maybe schedule it but see if you should cancel and save the money if it improves before the appointment.

    "And it's such a shame
    I heard the wind say this morning
    Be still my heart
    I age by years at the mention of your name
    What a pity this season
    You remember me, my lover
    I don't recognize myself
    I'm not the man you love
    Behold the hurricane
    Behold the hurricane"

    I cancelled it and am going to see how the knee reacts to me attempting badminton on Wed :tongue:

    It's confusing as it feels fine when I'm just knocking around the house or when I use my exercise bike. Then it gets sore after 5 or 10 mins walking, though so far today it's been ok so who knows!

    There are some very cynical, mistrusting people around here. I find that quite sad and I wonder what experiences led them down such a dark path...
