Wow. Talk about the proverbial can of worms. FaithNoMore, now I think I do owe you an apology. Everybody seems to be tripping over each other, to show who can display the crassest racial discrimination against Mexicans.
Again, I naively thought that the rational, no-bullshit frame of mind expected from a practicing Atheist could not coexist with attitudes that are more worthy of a card-carrying Tea Partier. Apparently I was wrong: From Moros Synackaon: “Also, the "in Mexico" crack is excellent -- it is an economically backward, failed state with a culture that values it's little hovels and gang affiliations more than they value having a decent quality of life.” Economically backward? Mexico is the 11th largest economy in the world (in terms of GDP), which is larger than that of Spain (#12), Canada (#13), Australia (#17), the Netherlands (#20), Sweden (#31) and Switzerland (#36). [Source: indexmundi.com] And again, what is your source for saying that Mexico’s “culture.. values it's little hovels and gang affiliations more than they value having a decent quality of life”? Come on, this is Glenn Beck’s/Rush Limbaugh’s territory. “From the perspective of a state, fuck 'em. And make jokes at it's expense. Sometimes we mock failures for being.” I will begin to believe this when I read you mocking all those loser countries listed above! (And I should also mock you for not knowing the difference between "its" and "it's".) Aerzia Saerules Arktuos: “The reason there are so many bestiality enthusiast in the U.S. is that they all came from the place Mexicans are great at leaving.” WTF?!!! So, you are convinced that all bestiality practitioners in the U.S. came from Mexico.? (Never mind the side swipe about immigration.) Please either show your source for this, or shut TFU. [I heard Terry Bradshaw crack the following joke on T.V.: “Yeah, I come from Alabama, back form the days when Men were Men and sheep were very afraid”. Yes, that Terry Bradshaw – the brown-faced spic.] “We aren't actually xenophobic. But I'd think a joke about the greedy jews is funny, and lazy blacks the same.” And that is not xenophobic? “I can see your point... what I can't see is why it matters to anyone but you.” Sure, and perhaps you can’t see also why Holocaust jokes seem to bother mostly Jews. Is there anyone out there, reading these comments, who may be willing to acknowledge that this conversation is no longer funny?

It is such a huge waste of potential. I even pause at the idea of wiping out mosquitos... why not save a small number of them aside to assault alien attacker?

Everybody seems to be tripping over each other, to show who can display the crassest racial discrimination against Mexicans. Actually, I could show far more racial jokes about mexicans than I did. A rational, no-bullshit frame of mind can still laugh and be merry Quote:“From the perspective of a state, fuck 'em. And make jokes at it's expense. I mock every country. And grammar nazis. Because you're a once mexican grammar nazi. The only thing that could make this better is if you were also jewish and currently lived in Germany with a dog as a vegetarian. Quote:Aerzia Saerules Arktuos: I'm made a joke, hon. I'll not stop making humor no matter how many times you tell me to shut tacky faux urns. And I also like Terry Bradshaw's joke Quote:“We aren't actually xenophobic. But I'd think a joke about the greedy jews is funny, and lazy blacks the same.” Not at all I fear only extraterrestrial aliens. And them only because they could kick our ass. Quote:“I can see your point... what I can't see is why it matters to anyone but you.” Nope. They need to get over it. Quote:Is there anyone out there, reading these comments, who may be willing to acknowledge that this conversation is no longer funny? Only to you... I'm still amused Stop being so negative!

Just because were atheists(what is a practicing atheist anyway?) doesn't mean we check our sense of humor at the door. One of the greatest qualities a human can have is the ability to laugh at something that at face value seems offensive but is not meant to be so. You can make all the white, Native American, mental patient jokes you want and I will laugh right along with you.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
Why so serious?
If humor results from xenophobia, then I wonder where hate results from...
