I'll have to move to England so I can get on a Liverpool. HA I made a funny.

I love London as a visitor, and England in general. Now, the royals... To me, they lend a strangely appealing kind of veneer to the whole business, as if they kept all this scenery like the westminster abbey from becoming pure relics, although rationally I know it's nonsense, and the prince of wales doubly so...

Now if I were ever offered some sort of royal honors (presently unlikely), I'd have my problems bowing to these people...
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

In what context?

Nothing to debate when you say "The earth rotates around the sun".

I am not speaking in code. Again, not my baggage.

All this crap stems from YOU, not me, failing to understand how evolution affects our perceptions as a species and WHY it is important to relate that to all aspects of life. Especially religion.

The God Delusion gives us the science behind flawed perceptions. Victor Stenger's books "God The Failed Hypothesis" and "The New Atheism" also address that science does have something to say about god claims and why humans come up with bad claims and why we take our evolutionary behavior and turn those natural things into convoluted comic book claims.

None of what am telling you is a mystery nor is it hard to understand.

Our behavior as a species is explained through evolution, not ancient comic books. It is that simple.

I don't think I've ever had a problem discerning Brian's tone. Or meaning.

I didn't get a word of that.
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.'

I know - sometimes southern drawls are hard to parse out.
