Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

You know I wish actual conversations with overly religious people went this smoothly.
"Tides go in, tides go out--you can't explain that!" Well, yes, you can...if you have a third-grade education in science. Just like sunsets; they're no mystery to anyone with a basic understanding of how the world works.
Over on Malia's blog, the resident troll was attacking science and tying it to liberals. How sad that knowledge is now seen as something for liberals only.

The reason why knowledge is frown upon thanks to Sarah and the other inbreds is that smart people don't vote republican! That is why they want to keep people in the dark with religion, and boogeymen FEARMONGERING like Ebola!
Good. Science will be for liberals only and we'll win all the offices and we'll finally grow a pair and kill the social safety net and we'll be the only ones with jobs who can then lord over the great and stupid Idiocracy and have them do our bidding for free!
I can't wait to utter the words to my unpaid, rightwing, Fox News Lobotomized minions "A little less starch in the sheets, m'kay."
No joke, when I was dating Mr. R, when we sat down to have the "where is this going?" chat lo those many years ago, he asked why I felt I could be with him forever and I said:
Because I know you'll never, ever mix up their/they're/there or your/you're.
But seriously, this is just sad. Not that it's my personal bailiwick but can't you believe in god and science?
You don't "believe" in science. Science requires no "belief". Science is a process of learning, determining facts and predicting the natural world based on these observations. Eclipses, tides, sunsets, sunrises, comets, electricity…..You cannot make any predictions about the natural world around based on the bible. As soon as you start talking about "believing" in science you've placed in the same realm as an invisible deity and you've lost the argument.
Um... well yes, and how do you explain religious wars if their is a god? *** The wars are in "gods name"! Of course. Remember the jesus rifles? http://go.shr.lc/1prfQOH I was actually looking for the link to MFFF with Mikey Winestein and Leah Burton but could not pull it up. They were responsible for getting this done, as I recall.
The problem is that they think you have to believe in a dog to think that a sunset is beautiful. How much do you want to bet that this chick teaches? Even if it's just sundee skool, I BET she teaches. The spelling is just delicious - every time I see this kind of thing is just more proof of the need for eh-dew-mah-kay-shun.
Okay, I'll play along. How does one explain rape, torture, and child molestation if there is no God (granted, the last option often happens under the auspice of God, so that's a gimme).
A Mexican friend who I thought was very religious sent this to me. I was very surprised and can't wait to discuss it with him. Stephen Fry is the narrator and it is very well done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pR7e0fmfXGw

One can dream, right?
Her "their" instead of "there" is the cherry on top

Maybe she thinks she is in "possession" of god? These tards learn this crap in home skooling.
Wouldn't work. People have to be willing to learn or you're wasting time, effort and sanity.
ReplyDeleteJust another tea bagger who has no clue that 'their' is not 'there' and probably doesn't know that they're really not doing their cause any good.
ReplyDeleteBasic education (like spelling!) to fundagelical teabaggists is like sunlight to vampires.

YEP!
Funny thing is they actually believe vampires are real. Hell, one even ran for congress.

Brilliant! And the spelling error makes it even more goofy.
ReplyDeleteSorry, got to pick on it, 'their?'
ReplyDeleteDispersion- elementary physics.
ReplyDeleteThe poster is the lady's application to be a professor at Liberty University ....
ReplyDeleteShe won the job because she got extra points for the spelling error and her total ignorance of science.
Sweet Jesus. (No pun intended)
ReplyDeleteThis is just sad.

DeleteWell you obviously "believe" in splitting hairs, so congrats on that.
DeleteTo almost misquote Gertrude Stein, but I would say " ..there is no their there... "
ReplyDeletePerhaps the best comment on the board this morning. Brilliant you are!
DeleteUm... well yes, and how do you explain religious wars if their is a god?

She's so proud of her ignorance, too. She just knows that up in heaven, God is adding another gold star to her little suck-up chart.

ReplyDeleteHow do you explain grammatical errors if "their" is no God?
ReplyDeleteBeats me! 8-(:-P
Neil deGrasse Tyson said “The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.”
ReplyDeleteSweet holy roller smackdown!
She seems nice.
ReplyDeleteAnd vacant. They are all that way. Something is missing.
DeleteHilarity! Thanks for the chuckle!
DeleteOh, that's an easy one. When God flips the light switch to "off", the sun goes out and becomes the night light known as "the moon".
ReplyDeleteNext Question?
Ohhhh I see what you did there, no fair explaining fact with science. It just confuses people, amirite?
