Who's the guy in the sky?

[Mrs.Toad]

There is no shame in praying...

When one uses prayer as means to insult another person, there sure is.

I think the skywriting is funny. Unless you stand there & read the whole thing one word blows away before the next is written. I've heard some people just see him writing love and think it is a message from someone to his sweethart. There is another skywriting technology that appears to use multiple planes & writes in dashes & is tres cool. I saw some Heinekin advertising on the east cost about a month ago and it stayed a good long time. The planes were too far away for me to read the current word before the old ones disappated.
If this guy really loved his religion, wouldn't he spring for the good skywriting techonology, slacker!

Number one before you make statements about another person's religion, you might want to educate yourself. I don't sacrafice anything, though I have no problems with those who do (I find it a little difficult to get sanctimounious about animal sacrafice over my KFC bucket).

Debates can be done intelligently - they don't require rudeness, nor do they require arrogance, or mockery. True debate is done on an intellectual level without making fun of your opponent and without mocking their opinions.
To resort to the tactics that you have doesn't show the mind of an intelligent debater, but instead illastrates a desire to stir the pot, so to speak.

It says very little about your opponent, and a great deal more about you if your first and only line of defense in a "debate" is to insult, ridicule, make assumptions and try to tear apart the opinions of your opponent with no factual input using what basically amounts to little more then school yard bullying.

I'm very sorry - but there is a diffrence between true debate, and what you are doing.

No you totally misunderstood me, I didn't mean YOU write pentagrams on your floor and all that, I was just illustrating the point that I think peeps have the right to do whatever they want including that.

Now that's offensive.

That's a Karl Rove quote ('Nuts..') that's going to make waves right up to Nov. 7, and I believe the book it's from isn't actually out until Mon. Going to be a fun month.

Ya know, I'm startin' to get offended
I grew up with some great times in the '60's
when freaks was well, freaks
Let's start callin' these religious rights
what the current administration calls 'em...
NUTS! Oh man, did I just agree with Bush?

I used to be a freak, but unfortunately in my old age I have become boring and normal. Well I would imagine some peeps would disagree with that last statement.

Had to post this in case my failure
to reply is misunderstood

Feel free to use this suggested touring plan if you are offended by any skywriting while at MK

1- When plane appears head toward Liberty Square. Tour Hall of Presidents.
2- If plane still in sky, go to Fantasyland. Ride Peter Pan (queue should be sufficiently long to obscure view of the sky for a good while)
3- proceed to Mickey's Philharmagic (keep eyes toward walkway so as to avoid accidental reading of message)
4- If sky writing is STILL apparent in sky, proceed to Tomorrowland and see Carousel of Progress.
5- If plane or writing is still evident after this lenght of time you may wish to spend the balance of your day enjoying a good meal at your favorite restaurant, some adult beverages at a nearby resort, or return to your room for a siesta.

I will try to post similar plans for the other parks ASAP. Enjoy. /

 

[pansmermaidzlagoon]

but how will this affect crowds, my viewing of parades, and getting in line for character autographs - and how can I plan accordingly?????

I would, but the Hall of Presidents could possibly have one of the Bush Presidents in there which would equally offend me possibly more than a reference to Jesus. And on top of that some people believe that Peter Pan is gay and gay people offend me. Mickey's Philharmagic may have music involved and most Churches play music so that would offend me. I may be able to hit Tomorrowland, I can't think of anything offensive in that area at the moment, but I'm sure if I try hard enough I will.

Stitch is an alien, there is that...aliens should probably offend.....

Should this happen near time for the 3PM parade, find a spot in Liberty Square near the bridge that goes toward the hub. Theer are trees there that should help obscure the view of the skywriting.

A word of caution: Be EXTREMELY careful lining up for meet-n-greets when skywrting is happening. The added distraction makes this a recipe for disaster for the knee-high crowd who are trying to have a magic moment with their favorite character, while adults are prone to wander aimlessly with eyes pealed on the sky.

Zippa's secret of the day: (This is what I tell my VIP guests, so it's good for you too, right?) When those crowds of adults are gawking skyward, that's a great time for you to skip right around them into a ride queue that's sure to have a short wait. YOU don't want to be like THEM, right?

 

[aztecgoods]

Yes aliens are offensive, I'm down right prejudice against the Green ones. Now Grey's a different story. They're down to earth, (or Mars) hard working aliens that don't hurt anyone.

My TGZ staff is working on a "Touring plan for Democrats".

thank you - I bow to your planning and strategizing wisdom!!!!! (Actually, I am gonna be needing the Democrat version - but for now it just fun to play along!!!! )

 

[aztecgoods]

Well if your working on one for the Dems just make sure you remove the Bush's, R.Reagan, and Nixon. Dems hate these presidents and don't think that they have a right to have their history. I think you maybe ok with leaving Ford and Eisenhower in there, for some reason they don't offend the dems as much. And of course these Republican President's aren't "dumb idiotic morons either" its just the Bush's and Reagan. Its funny there has never been a "dumb iditotic moronic" democratic president. Just the republican ones.

Funny you shoudl mention Stitch. I am launching a skywriting campaign of my own during which I will write "Stitch Loves You" across the sky twice a day.

 

[DestinationDisney]

So what do you do whenever you are behind a car that has bumper stickers with religious references???

As others have pointed out, a car is a person's personal property. The sky is not.

You're in WDW for pete's sake

Exactly my point...I'm in WDW on a family vacation where I don't feel like having to deal with people preaching about Jesus and being saved.
