Who is Bill Conduit and why do people hate him so?

Digital Video (DV) Frequently Asked Questions
Bill is very knowledgeable about the world of video; I think he must spend half his life pouring over press releases, USENET posts and various rumour mill publications to get his information. However, Bill is a creature of the present. If CANON comes up with a great video camera, he will be the first to sing its praises. If there is then a problem with CANON's camera, he will immediately say that it's a piece of junk and CANON should be crucified for selling it.

What can I tell people who hate homosexuals?

FAQ on Being Gay and Frum
Most often feelings of hate are based on ignorance, misunderstanding, and fear of the unknown. And it may not be so much "hate" as disapproval of certain conduct. Attitudes often change with education, and after meeting gay people and understanding halacha, most people will accept the fact that a person is gay. It may also help to remind them that Hillel said: Ve-al tadin et chavercha ad she-tagia li-mkomo (Pirke Avos 2:5) (Do not judge your fellow until you are in his place.

Why do some people hate to fly so much?

Fear of Flying - Overcome it and beat aviophobia and aeropho...
I have thought about this a great deal actually, and I have come to the conclusion that people don't really fear flying itself, but that they have a number of other fears that are associated with flying such as the fear of heights or the fear of being trapped in a closed place. I think that for many people there is a fear of crashing and dying. For some people, I have discovered, that the fear of flying is actually tied to a fear of leaving home and leaving a familiar place.

Who are the people who form this hate group?

Frequently Asked Questions
Over the years, hundreds of thousands of people have been shown the techniques of Knowledge. Some people found it was not for them and moved on. Sadly, not all people are able to take responsibility for their own life choices. Remarkably, these detractors allegedly left the practice of Knowledge in the late 1970's /early 1980's but are still obsessed with Maharaji and the practice of Knowledge almost 30 years later.
Related Questions

Are the people in this hate group credible?

Frequently Asked Questions
Although their attacks against Maharaji, his students, and the organizations that promote his message are fanatical, outwardly these people appear quite ordinary. This contributes to their ability to dupe others, including the occasional media person. Only a few give their actual names when they post to their web-site, most maintaining various anonymous personae.

What is flexible conduit deflection and how is it calculated?

A flexible pipe derives its soil load carrying capacity from its flexibility. Under soil load, the pipe tends to deflect (reduction of pipe diameter in the vertical direction), thereby developing passive soil support at the sides of the pipe. At the same time, the ring deflection re?lieves the pipe of the major portion of the vertical soil load, which is then carried by the surrounding soil through the mechanism of an arching action over the pipe.

Do Atheists hate religious people?

Top Frequently Asked Questions and Answers About Atheism
The hurt that religions do results from the adherent's blind acceptance of fanciful stories and traditions. Most Atheists are vehemently opposed to all religions. It is an exercise in futility as well as being a notion steeped in ignorance, to blame the victim of any hoax. Atheism promotes that young people should not be indoctrinated into a particular monotheistic system. Children have no intellectual defence against such authorative adult methods.

Oh, I see. Now what's a bot? Why do people have a love/hate attitude towards bots? Can I make a bot?

Undernet IRC FAQ [Part I] (updated 1st June 1996)
The term "bot" is short for "robot". You can often come across these on IRC. A bot is a detached irc process which simulates another irc client. Some bots serve as repositories for files, or useful data, or conduct games. Dumb bots only do mode changes. Harmful bots fork clone copies of themselves or flood the irc network with garbage (clonebots/floodbots). These are almost universally hated. Most bots on IRC are a nuisance, even though their owners find their invention "cool".

Why do so many people hate Scott Summers?

rec.arts.comics.marvel.xbooks Frequently Asked Questions Par...
There tend to be two major schools of thought on this. People hate Scott Summers, aka Cyclops, because: On the first count, harsh people with long memories are not going to soften their opinion of a character's bad behavior. To them it is simple: Scott left his wife and child to run off after his first love in X-Factor #1. For the record, Madelyne did issue him an ultimatium and they had been having marital problems.

Why do you hate religious people?

Propagandhi … Frequently Asked Questions
We don’t. We do think that it is at least arguable that belief in gods is irrational and that social policy based on belief in the supernatural is absurd and potentially dangerous. Besides, as a band and as regular dudes involved in activism, we’ve worked with religious groups on a variety of human-rights issues since day one. So please be so kind to go pull your ‘poor-persecuted-Christian’ routine somewhere else, OK? Thanks.

What about people who hate stepping in dog poop?

MMDOG_Frequently_Asked_Questions
Nobody likes to step in dog poop. But dog poop will be more controlled if confined to a certain area, not allowed to collect on citizens' lawns, go into storm drains and into our waterways. Poop from off-leash dogs will be picked up more than that of dogs on leash because we have user groups who want to keep their dog area open and legitimate. People walking their dogs on leash have less reason to pick up their dog feces.
