1. Red hot enlightenment led me to believe in one fewer god

As a certified Australian with over 22 years experience in the field of being an Australian, let me clear this up.

Blinker - Applies to both the horse-blinding device and turning indicators on vehicles.

Blinder - Usually an adjective describing the excellence or high-quality of a performance (eg. Matthew Hayden had a blinder against England, hitting 10000 runs from 5 balls)

At home, at least, he is not an oddity. His wife is an albino. So are all five of his children. Some have already had skin cancer, in their teens.


Poor kids never had a chance...

4. Daniel Dennett Debates Dinesh D'Souza

It seems to me that D'Souza would fit in far better on some late night televangelist program, where his huffing-and-puffing and flustered reiteration of the same worn out points may seem appropriate.

At least should any new debates involving D'Souza come up in the future, I can now safely fast-forward the recording whenever he steps up to the microphone without fear of missing any new ideas.

I for one have watched D'Souza debate Shermer, Hitchens and now Dennet and can confidently say that I've heard both his tired arguements and his whiney voice three times too many.

At least against Shermer and Hitchens he actually visited upon the debate topic. I can't recall him actually arguing against religion being man made at all.
