Sad Ali picture... Legend Deteriorating Dramatically in last 12 months

[AdamGB]

So, so sad to see such a maginficent athlete and vivacious personality reduced to this.

A bit rich coming from the man who has said many times he couldnt give a F*** about celebrity deaths or misfortunes

True.

Howver my point was that I cannot give a F*** if someone I don't know or care about dies. Especially when all of society goes into tooth gnashing bleating about it simply because they are expected to.

Muhammad Ali means a lot to me, and I will be genuinely grieving when the time comes.

Others, to whom he means nothing, will not. At least they will be being honest - like I am.

I'm with X here... kind of... Every time some one dies on the internet there are 1000s of threads full of 'RIP' etc... but people are just going through the motions... unless I genuinley feel a connection to the person (such as Ali) or know them then I won't shit: people die all the time.

I don't agree with making jokes about it, disrespectful or not it's not exactly nice for the people who genuinley loved the dead to see all the cheap crap flying around is it?

Spoiled Rotten has left the building

moving this to lets get it one.

[Andre]

Well his spirit is still there stronger than ever, Its just the vehicle it gets around in thats nearly had its day.
Time for another one or a change.

[Purist]

I have yet to stop crying

[Andre]

Oh I just sneakily read back ,what went down!

That bloke (Spoiled rotten) got banned ,hung crap on Ali for a false religion dammed him to hell etc!

That fellow is (IN JUdgment) something his own religion tells him not to go into!
Its a stage on his own path ,it will get reflected back into him as self judgment.

It is judgment of others that is the cause of all our troubles both on earth and in our slow ascension through the many possible dimensions.

There are false ideals in all religions because they are man made.

Its there because we have to work through them so we eventually can come together as one.

Yeshua or (Jesus as the greeks would have you say it) had tolerance of all things becuase he knew that God is love and love allows all things.

The rest of the rules were written as a direction for speed in asscension; not a set of rules for ;you do or else ! as it has been portrayed by all the men who have changed scripture so as to control the masses through each religion.

Forgivness of yourself and then others is the gateway its not the journey or the end there is never an end.

Yeshua is the way and the light that shines the way to begin getting out of here ,but it was spun out of context so that one religion could claim to be the only one as they have all tried.

Religion is not God made, its man made.


We are all blessed we are all forgiven everything at the point of asking.

Then the gate opens.

Ailing Muhammad Ali cuts a sad figure as he makes a rare outing-using a Zimmer frame to walk.
The three-time World heavyweight champion had to be helped by a pal as he arrived at a New York hotel.
Ali,64 has fought a 25-year battle against Parkinson's disease.
His condition is said to have deteriorated dramatically over the last 12 months.

I thought 'The Sun' was like the 'National Inquierer' here in the states?

IMO....I don't think the picture is real....

Sorry Andre, I know you hate the coolclicks, but I do what I believe is right.
Have one.

[smashup]

This is how Ali will be remembered in my eyes
Imo probably his greatest display of pure boxing skill.
His speed is amazing.

It's hypocritical and patronising to be honest. Basically what X is saying is that when he pays respect to someone who has died it's a worthy and meaningful act but when others do it, it means nothing. Can you (X) not comprehend that the way you feel about Ali, some people might actually have felt the same way about other people?

Personally I was very upset to hear of the death of Steve Irwin, and I'm sure many millions of others were around the world. To suggest that all of them, and me, were just mimicking politically correct banalities whilst your own words of respect towards Ali are somehow heartfelt and more worthy just makes no sense to me.

Paying respects to the dead or the misfortunate is not or certainly should not be a case of miming or going through the politically correct motions. It's about respect, plain and simple. I do not need to have known someone personally in order to feel sorry for their loss, if you do then that says more about yourself than about the rest of the world.

By the way, this was aimed at X not AdamGB :P

[Mad_Dog]

I have yet to stop crying

over what hun?
Come to papa, M_D will make it all better...

[smashup]

Let her flick your scrotum

[Mad_Dog]

I will but that does not sound like fun

[smashup]

Give it a go at least.

Yes ... and no, I won't comprehend anything else.
