Exhorting Atheists to Solve Society's Ills
#20
RE: Exhorting Atheists to Solve Society's Ills
I guess I have to ask, what if we are part of the problem?  Jerkoff

I'm reminded of the time I saw "The Mensan", which is a magazine published by MENSA for their membership. One of the guys I used to work with took and passed the test. That's how I saw the magazine, as he had left it laying out in his office...of course. One of the issues had a column posing the question, "Do the truly intelligent need to volunteer more for their community?" or something similarly smarmy. Smart, atheist, religious, whatever, it's amusing how people take their "specialness" and ask other people to do something.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
