In honor of Chuck Norris's passing, here are some quotes by him:

Quote:"Educational arenas have become limited learning environments because of biases against God, the Bible and creationism."

"Why can't creationism or intelligent design be taught in public schools?"

"Since when does science own the market on how life began? If it is based largely upon empirical investigation of present, repeatable data, then the evolutionary theory for the beginning of life stands upon no more solid ground than ID."

"Intelligent design deserves a seat in classrooms across America."

"Dissenters of creationism are classifying ID as a religion and further say that religion belongs exclusively in homes and churches. Says who? They answer that the separation of church and state in the First Amendment bans ID from entering classrooms in any form. What they don't realize, however, is their conclusion is a constitutional misinterpretation and bastardization of the First Amendment. It was written and adopted, among other reasons, so that Congress neither would establish a federal religion nor restrict religious or speech freedoms, which can include religious instruction in public classrooms."
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Fuck Chuck.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Imagine being dim enough to buy this bullshit:

Pastors Alan DiDio, Troy Brewer, and Joseph Z all agree that the long TSA lines at airports is why they need private jets: "If there's ever been a case for preachers to have private airplanes, this is it."

Pastor in LA refuses to tip this waitress and instead he demands money from her because he will then pray for her and God will bless her.

I actually read that as ‘Benny Hill’, which I would prefer. Scantily clad women running about to ‘Yakety Sax’ while Father Hill tries to cast out me demons. Can’t be bad. Smile

Sadly, I’m sure there are plenty of servers (and other tip-worthy professions) who fall for that execrable bullshit.

If you’re not willing to tip at LEAST twenty percent, eat.the.fuck.at.home.

Better yet get a job that pays a decent wage so tips are not required
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

Or just raise the pay of servers.
