Hard News: The Mega Conspiracy, in reply to Sacha,
Maybe Key was selling the movie rights to WB.
If it wasn't - WB, and it wasn't GCSB, or the CIA, - then perhaps it was the ACT leadership team or the board of Huljich Wealth Management (NZ) Ltd?

You people so bloody right.
Hmm, the footage that aired on TV Three this week one wonders where the rest of it is - the actual going into the "red room" and dealing with the family and the other people on site.
Just perhaps, the raid was sanctioned by First Citizen after the FBI convinced him he could just be like Obama watching the Bin Laden raid – The appeal for First Citizen is he can be with the big boys - that First Citizen could sit in a secret room surrounded by new best FBI friends, the Diplomatic Protection Squad, other tough Police guys, and SIS and they watch the Dot Com raid take place - First Citizen shout everyone pizza and get the drinks - of course the tax payer is funding everything.
GCSB handle the technology side – live feeds, Helmet cam, and coordinate the data recording of entire raid.
First Citizen number one big guy - he sits in big chair – he just like Obama - watch raids on big screen TV – First Citizen cool no one top dog guy. First Citizen say he not been so excited since him ring bell at little school.

From the herald article this morning
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10825903
Mr Davison asked about the origin of intelligence used to plan the raid, raising a meeting two months earlier attended by officers from Ofcanz, the police legal section, the Crown Law Office, American authorities and the unnamed group.
Taxpayers re funding a mystery group who have input into police raids.
In an open democracy the High Court and the people should be entitled to know.And the mystery group at the Dotcom meeting is...............?
Perhaps representatives from the Office of the First Citizen John Key The First.

Those who think science is just another religion might wish to look at some of the other people who think this. Or these. Do you really want to be on that side?
There is sense and non sense - science and non science. Your links may provide two examples of nonsense and nonscience and could be considered proof of the evolution of faith – doesn’t have to be sensible or scientific.
I'm on the side of Elvis - there is a possibility he won't evolve further because he may be dead. But I'll wait a bit longer meantime before ruling out a come back.
We don't have to chose sides on the God No God debate , I refuse.
Recognizing that fundamental human rights should not be denied to anyone on the basis of race, gender, age, belief and sexuality - does not require one to hold any belief in God or belief that there is no God..

morally acceptable (or even possible) to believe in something because you're being threatened?
You are assigning motives to the beliefs of others.

Can you give an example?
Faith or lack of is held and expressed personally – all things that are personal, be it a theist or atheist perspective is defined by the realm of the person’s existence and will evolve. If you can think you can evolve – if you can’t evolve you are more than likely dead.
I can’t be bothered with the God / No God scenarios - the arguments on the existence or non existence of “God” advanced by theists and atheists are nauseating to me – The positions expressed in support of each are a parody – the more extreme and deeply held each of the arguments the closer they tend to become to each other in being meaningless and righteous. The more fervently expressed the position the better the circular parody.
The people that I have met who spend their life’s works studying these things are pretty boring and to my mind joy germs.
Live your life in the world you live and change the things that need to be changed – and that includes recognizing that fundamental human rights should not be denied to anyone on the basis of race, gender, age, belief and sexuality.
Often many people who profess to hold views in support of “social issues” are pseudo intellectuals who are selective in airing that support in real terms in their real life.
These are my observations and they haven’t been subjected to the scientific method – not everything has to or is suitable to be posed as hypotheses and tested empirically.

But even if that's true, my point is that scientific knowledge is continually challenged, refined and updated in the light of the evidence. Faith isn't.
Everything evolves.

I'm interested as to how the Babel Fish demonstrates the existence of God - I believe the Babel Fish evolved by process of natural selection and that the existence of Babel Fish proves neither existence or lack of existence of a God.
I also don't, in the conversation you have quoted, feel God vanished in a puff of logic - it was a fart and he excused himself from the room, albeit in a divine manner, that may have suggested to some that he had ceased to exist – he was merely going out of the room to really let one rip – so to speak.

My vote would be for it to be called the "Elvis Particle" - most sensible people agree.
