RE: That Day will come as a trap on all the world

Wouldn't it be more courteous (I was going to say xtian) to stick to the subject at hand and not turn this into a personal issue?
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.'

Because that's what happens. We're not having a flame war while I'm on duty.

You're right, Stim.
Nothing would have made him less of a dipshit.

Sorry Stimbo, I was only playing a bit. Will do.
And CD, it would have been '70 to 72.
I remember riding my Honda 4 and realizing not to ever smoke that stuff and then ride.

Appreciated. I don't like to play the bad cop (who am I kidding - I love it). Just trying to keep everything nice and copacetic.

The Gospel of Minimalist would probably be pretty entertaining. How
do you write "blow your fucking god right out of your ass" in ancient Hebrew?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
