Jury duty

[Matabele]

Can we have some nominees of people that are prepared to be on a panel of jurors to preside over a discussion on the evidential approach to the existence (or otherwise) of a "higher being"?

 

[Fro]

yep, I d love the opportunity to vote against Dan...........or does that not make me impartial??

 

[Dan]

exactly, impartial means I have the right to dismiss you from the jury

 

[Fro]

You have the right??

who died and made you god??

MAtas is the one convening this Jury, and his is the only recognised authority in this particular case.

If I need a suggestion for arcade machine or hair product I'll know where to look

 

[Matabele]

I'd assumed that both Dan and I would have to agree on each member.

 

[Dan]

That is correct matabele. I will dismiss Fro on the grounds of bias and inability to be impartial.

May I suggest Manly Backer and Ryan?

 

[Fro]

well you pair cant agree what day it is so good luck

 

[Dan]

lol.

Jury matters are different, each person pics the people with the background etc that they think will help their case.

[Dan]

I for instance suggested 2 who i do not know their pre-disposition but whom i think are more closely alligned with my thoughts, therefore the burden of proof is on Matabele to prove to them beyond reasonable doubt that there is a god. If they are convinced then likely I would be too

 

[Matabele]

I'm happy with MB and Ryan if they want to be involved.

I nominate PJ and Clontaago (whom I suspect are also more inclined towards Dan's view?)

 

[Dan]

agree with PJ and clontaago. How large does Jury have to be? do we go the full 12?

 

[Fro]

What, No Sue or Vegas?

or as I like to call them, Porthos and Athos.

or even Dewey and Lewey

 

[Matabele]

Might be better to go an odd number to ensure it is not hung?

9?

 

[ManlyBacker]

Does this mean I get put up in a (hopefully 4+ star) hotel along with free feed and drink? Do I then have to listen to 384 cross arguments? Sheesh - there had better be a bottle worth more than $30 somewhere in my room

 

[Fro]

lol.

Jury matters are different, each person pics the people with the background etc that they think will help their case.

Or at least not harm it, dependant on which side they are on

 

[Dan]

no i will just buy your vote on saturday night

 

[ManlyBacker]

Very smooth!

 

[Matabele]

Whatever Dan, I shall not even protest.

Because if I'm right, you're not just fighting me (and if I'm right I might have spies everywhere).

So Dan, nominate some more. You'll notice I'm loading the jury your way.

 

[Canteen Worker]

I will volunteer to be up for this jury and I am totally impartial.

:blaugh: :yeah: :lie: :lie: !pray:
