In Ireland the strife between Catholic and Protestant lives to this day. It's just covered up in PC/BS.

There was a lot of dissension between the Christian and Muslim factions as far as piracy was concerned but the pirates being declared the "Enemies of the human race" seemed to transcend the religious boundaries.

A common factor for many pirates was the escape of authority, to include the church. Don't forget that the early Spanish Main was conceded to the Spanish and Portuguese by the Pope and the Northern European pirates went against him by attacking the Spanish.

Religion was as much a factor in piracy as tyranny was.

Eustace the Monk is an interesting case study. He used Christianity to give a holy meaning to his actions. Rebellion, deception, and the book of Revelations was a great weapon for him.

Conversely the Muslim pirate would force Christians to convert to Islam, or "Turn Turk" vs. being executed.

this is a truly involved subject, I look forward to continuing this thread.

Hey Hitman, yer getting soft, I can actualy answer yer question this time!

Hi Hester, I went on a three-day murder mystery cruise from Texas to Florida, it was a blast. Using my detective abilities I was able to totaly confuse myself and blew the case. It was alot of fun none the less.

hint: the ships owners wife did it.

articulate

Hmmm ... "pudden" -- I wonder if that was the savoury Yorkshire type, or the sweet Figgy Duff type. [Either would be a Sunday treat.]

Ya know, I have no idea, well, off to the books again.

A recipe book from the time of the American Colonies might help. I gotta get one.

Now I think I can get my wife to Vegas! The production looks outstanding.

Just had a very pretty blond try to pick up on me and I was too dense to notice or care.

^ Dang, Hitman, ya got me again, what is IPTV?

<Drunk as a skunk right now

V Ever been on a themed cruise?

Bluto,

Did you know Brutus, Popeyes arch rival was originaly named Bluto, but the Disney corperation thought it was too close to Pluto so they sued to have his name changed? I hope the planet Pluto sues Disney.
