Impassioned, Iconoclastic and Interactive.
Smitecam III: The Word of God

Don't Bite Me Smite Me!

Wednesday 7th July 04 starting at 20:00 GMT (9pm British Summer Time)
I'm still standing! SMITECAM III challenged the gods and found them wanting.

 

I was joined by several mystery guests.

Why am I doing such a childish thing? Because the world has gone mad. The world protects those people who believe in patent absurdities from scrutiny and much deserved ridicule. I want to protest and make a point of doing so. I have no problem with people being religious but I have to protest when religion is given unwarranted protection. To me religion deserves no more and no less protection than any view on any issue. Religion needs no protection against blasphemy and ridicule. Freedom of speech, freedom of expression and freedom of association give all the protection any religion needs.

Stockport library keeps the Quran safe behind the desk. Safe from defilement in the hands of infidels, or by the hands of infidels?

The time has come to challenge the hocus pocus of holy words. The time when only a few could read saw the rise of the cult of magic words. Big books with hidden powers, secret powers of the word looked after by men in pointy hats who carried sticks. Priests, wizards, shamans, magicians or charlatans, they all wanted the great unwashed to be cowed by the power of words on paper, holy tomes and magic incantations, words with magic powers. Enough is enough!

I will be challenging the gods by name and I will be burning “sacred” images and “sacred” words and standing up to the wrath of the empty air.

Sponsorship

If any capitalist pigs or their running dogs want to sponsor the Smitecam III event the price is a significant quantity of ale or cider and some nibbles, and it has to be delivered too. This isn't profit, it is legitimate expenses.

Note to gods:

If any gods reading this want to explain why they wouldn't want to smite me please get in touch via email, telepathy, words of fire across the sky, telephone, instant message, vision or SMS. In all cases quoting the password that is pinned up on my office notice board. Apologies for absence will not be accepted from omnipresent deities.

Note: the password was LEMONGRASS.ENEMA, no messages were received. I think it might have made the local news if those words had appeared in fire in the skies over Cheadle Hulme.

Mike pointed out to me that me knowing the password made the telepathy route unreliable, if I imagined a voice in my head of course such a voice would know the password. Next time I will keep the password secret from myself.

Mike:: Good, still works in Opera then!
Mike:: I'm afraid I'm video-less. Some friends came over and I had no time to install anything...
Martin Willett:: Well, the main event should be the chat.
Martin Willett:: Well, that was the plan!
Mike:: Done any warm-up exercises? How WARM did they get? LOL
Martin Willett:: I've done a couple of test firings.
Martin Willett:: Which you've probably seen.
Mike:: Yes, they worked very well.
Martin Willett:: I've yet to try the Three in one version.
Martin Willett:: Can you think of a name for it?
Mike:: Tri-nity-ro Toluene?
Mike:: (TNT)
Martin Willett:: Tres drol.
Martin Willett:: Satan's toasting fork perhaps?
Mike:: Now that has a ring to it.
Martin Willett:: Not that he'll be surviving the night either.
Mike:: Glad to hear you're not taking sides!
Martin Willett:: I'm trying to be even handed. But with these bloody Hindu gods that's hard...
Martin Willett:: on the one hand and on the other and the other and the other
Mike:: Are you planning to use Vishwakarma?
Martin Willett:: Yes, white bearded git heavy on the arms.
Mike:: You saw that story I sent you, then. Classic bit of nonsense.
Martin Willett:: Yes, scary stuff.
Martin Willett:: Where is everybody?
Mike:: Dunno.
Mike:: Down some Boddies and relax. They'll come.

 

Martin Willett:: I'm quite relaxed now, I've downed quite a bit.
Martin Willett:: But I don't fancy burning these buggers up if nobody is going to see them burn!
Mike:: Why doesn't the Internet have an equivalent of popping your head round someone's door and shouting for them?
Martin Willett:: I think that was the idea behind instant messaging, but the diferent systems have made it work less well than it could.
Mike:: You're right. There should be a common interface standard with alternative products built on top of it
Martin Willett:: And no bloody adverts.
Mike:: Right on, brother.
Martin Willett:: A standards commission to agree a single protocol.
Mike:: I don't think it will happen, but I can't pinpoint why I feel that way.
Martin Willett:: Justva stab in the dark here...
Mike:: Probably because business doesn't use it. Mind you, they SHOULD use it, it's cheaper than the phone for a start!
Martin Willett:: money?
Mike:: As you said, money...
Mike:: I see azdak is logged onto the board.
#cake fairy joined
Martin Willett:: Hello Kate.
#cake fairy:: Hello.
Mike:: Hi there Kate
#cake fairy:: Hello, Mike.
#cake fairy:: I see Martin's still intact.
Martin Willett:: This isn't working! One person watching who isn't here.
#cake fairy:: Probably because over here (east coast US) it's 4:20 pm.
#cake fairy:: Everyone's still working.
Mike:: That gives me a nasty thought - how many are on the WEST coast?
Martin Willett:: At this rate I'll be drunk before they get home.
#cake fairy:: Well, at least you'll be drunk.
Martin Willett:: Every cloud has a silver lining.
Mike:: We'll probably be lucky to see Goddess/centretek too...
#cake fairy:: Yeah, it's the middle of the night there, huh?
Martin Willett:: There's no ideal time for this stuff.
Martin Willett:: I asked Venky and he said no chance, 4am for him!
Mike:: That's fair enough!
Martin Willett:: I've got all these Hindu gods to burn, armfuls of them, and nobody to see.
#cake fairy:: :( It's too bad.
Mike:: I wish I had a video feed. Are you going to make another transcript with photos Martin?
#cake fairy:: *nods* That would be nice.
Martin Willett:: Yes, this stuff will be easy enough to copy.
Mike:: So, no thunder storms in Cheadle?
Martin Willett:: No, that was last night.
#cake fairy:: Heh, we had one a few hours ago.
Mike:: Weather's gone tame again here too. It was gale force earlier
Mike:: You should Earth yourself regardless. They might be lulling you into a false sense of security...
Martin Willett:: BIG thunder yesterday.
#cake fairy:: Damn, I've got to go.
#cake fairy:: Good luck with the whole thing.
#cake fairy left
Martin Willett:: Thanks.
Mike:: That's a shame.
Mike:: Peter's on the board, he's in London, isn't he?
Martin Willett:: Not sure, could be.
Martin Willett:: Species-ism
Mike:: Yes? What of it?
Martin Willett:: Just looking at your post.
Mike:: I just think that the singular form isn't 'specie', it's 'species', so...
Mike:: Did you see the Thrill Rides program on Channel 5 the other night?
Martin Willett:: Not my obsession.
Mike:: It was impressive stuff, but they kept getting the science wrong when they were talking about weightlessness.
Mike:: I won't say any more, for fear of getting evangelical
#Mark joined
Mike:: Good evening
#Mark:: Any lightning yet?
Mike:: Not even any fire :\
Martin Willett:: I'm trying to get this stuff sorted out.
Martin Willett:: I can't get anybody viewing.
#Mark:: Haven't loaded Yahoo video. Will have to take your word for what you're doing
Mike:: That makes two of us Mark
Mike:: Uh -oh - just got a strange message in my EZBoard window...
#Mark:: Well, who have you burned so far?
Mike:: I think you should just start, Martin. That's what we do in bands when there's an audience of two...
Martin Willett:: Nobody, I'm afraid.
#Mark:: What are you afraid of?
Mike:: hee hee. The East-Coasters might be returning home soon. Give 'em 10 minutes to grab a Bud...
Martin Willett:: or a beer.
Mike:: :)
#Mark:: Give me ten minutes. Gotta drop the boy off at his baseball game.
Mike:: OK, shall we reschedule for 2100GMT?
Martin Willett:: I'm struggling here with Yahoo, trying to get anybody to see what I'm doing.
Mike:: Wish I could help

OliverBendix:: so who will SMITE me?
Mike:: *gets into spirit at last* COME ON, BAAL, YOU FATSO!
Mike:: Or is that Bacchus?
OliverBendix:: BANG ME BEELZEBUB!
Mike:: I have a CROSS-CUT shredder here. Just realised how appropriate that could be....
Mike:: I have a cross picture ready. Shall I drop it in?
Martin Willett:: My first plan was for a shredder based Smitecam event, but the thing broke.
Mike:: Perhaps I can help...
Mike:: *drops cross into shredder* SEE! IT'S JUST A GEOMETRIC SYMBOL! HA!
OliverBendix:: Draw a dead man on it next time.
Mike:: I'm not good at art
Mike:: It didn't make enough noise. I'll use A4 next time instead of a post-it...
OliverBendix:: For proper idol-smashing it should be gold leaf. What's the word for idol-smashing?
Martin Willett:: Iconoclasm?
Martin Willett:: Fun?
OliverBendix:: that's it. not enough coffee this morning.
#Mark:: Your shredder broke? Isn't that a sign?
#Mark:: Open your eyes heathens!!!
Martin Willett:: Now where's my lighter gone?
Mike:: I have drawn a proper one on A4 now. Ready when you are.
Mike:: It's just started raining here.
OliverBendix:: Before I head off: OFF WITH MY HEAD, JEHOVAH

Martin Willett:: Nope, but closer
Mike:: Buddha?
Martin Willett:: Boy with a flute.
baldbantam:: I know the point is to prove the non-existence of the gods, but it would be cool if Martin got struck by lightning.
baldbantam:: Boy with a flute - Pan?
Martin Willett:: Krishna.
Mike:: Ah.
Martin Willett:: KRUSH ME KRISHNA!
Martin Willett:: Into the flames <bwahhha!>
Mike:: Still here?
Martin Willett:: Yes.
Martin Willett:: I crashed Yahoo though.
Martin Willett:: I'll just reopen it.
Mike:: Is that Krishna's best attempt? Crashing Yahoo Messenger?
#Mark:: Who crashed it? You or Krishna?
Martin Willett:: Difficult to say.
baldbantam:: Got to start somewhere. Maybe it's a warning shot across the bows.
Martin Willett:: I'll reload as Trillian, and toast another god.
Mike:: Trillian was carried off by a Norse god wasn't she?
Martin Willett:: OK. I'll pick a Norse god.
Martin Willett:: OOOODIIIIN!

baldbantam left
Mike:: He's on the menu, I believe
Martin Willett:: Ah! there's the one eyed get!

Martin Willett:: OK, who's next?
Mike:: ...so the lightning bolt should have no trouble.
#Mark:: I'm eating dinner. Hope I don't choke.
#Mark:: Who's the god of food?
Mike:: Toyuke (Toyouke) Okami, the god of food, clothing, and housing
#Mark:: HERE"S TO YOU TOYOUKE!!

#Mark:: and watch out for those blowfish
Martin Willett:: OK, it's time for our old friend THOTH
Martin Willett:: THOTH THOTH
Martin Willett:: THQUOTH ME LIKE A MOTH!

Martin Willett:: Or BOTH AT ONCE!
#Mark:: NOT MARY!!!!
Mike:: Can we kick Bishop Brennan up the arse while we're at it?

#Mark:: my head is bowed
Mike:: I have my horns on again

Martin Willett:: He looked like he was made to burn.
Mike:: Funny that
Martin Willett:: Now I'll do Mary.
baldbantam:: How about actually blaspheming against the holy spirit. That's the biggy sin that cannot be forgiven in the New Testament. Shock me spooky, or something like that.
Mike:: * holds breath *
#Mark:: my head is ducked
Martin Willett:: The holy spirit will take a starring role in the grand finale.
Martin Willett:: When I bring on the Trinity Incinerator!
#Mark:: don't you mean co-starring?
Martin Willett:: His role is special, he does the annointing with fire.
Mike:: Has Mary gone yet?
