The redneck strike again.
RE: The redneck strike again.
Fascinating article. Thanks for sharing it. I shall have to look out for that book.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Yes. Yes you are. Or you're putting on a really good act.

You said it, not me.

It's entertaining. Kinda like watching a train crash into a clown car or something like that.

Quote: An old saying goes that if you follow the idiot you must be more idiot than the idiot himself.
Sound obvious, isn't it? SmileConfused FallSmile

I'm only following you enough to point and laugh at you. If I sense you leading me into any legitimate trouble, that's when I walk away. So far, that hasn't happened.

Just thought I'd share the chuckle I had with everyone that this thread is still going.

There may well be trouble ahead.

Possible, sure. It's also possible the moon is going to fall out of its orbit and crash into the earth. Just because something is possible doesn't mean it's likely. What's likely is that you're going to say more crazy things and the rest of us are going to laugh at you.

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

But while there's moonlight, and music,
And love and romance,
Let's face the music, and dance.

After the lack of knowledge disaster (about philosophy and religion), after the NDE disaster, after the omnivore disaster i have to agree that there got to be a very good laugh.
The only disagreement is that the one who laugh is me. ROFLOL
