How do they know it is in a quantum state if they can't measure it? *BRAIN EXPLODES*

Nope, it is a state run school...

What were his actual words? Such a small quote, I'd like to see the entire statement not just 4 words in quotation marks.

It would give me great pleasure if he would come out and say "Um...yeah, about me being reincarnated, that's a bunch of crap." I think anyone who was taught from the age of 3 that he was the reincarnation of Buddha would probably believe it. I love the guy but that one issue really bugs me!

John G, Fox News hosts ask questions like that all the time. "Could Obama REALLY be a muslim?" Just because it wasn't a statement doesn't mean she didn't get her point across.

I lump that kind of comment/question in with the pastor Hagee bullshit like New Orleans gettings flooded because gays were going to have a parade. Whether the cause is thought to be divine intervention of something intangible like karma, its all the same to me.

7. Teacher tortures, kills boy

Wow, 13000 schools offering free "education" to the poor. Imagine if Christian churches offered free education like that here in the US. Fortunately we have a (somewhat) secular public school system.

I feel so bad for that boy and his parents. No child should die. No parent should have to lose their child.

Wasn't this already covered in a Star Trek episode?

9. Mark Steyn vs. the 'Sock Puppets'

Is their complaint that by reporting all of the ridiculous things that have been said or done in the name of Islam that it will make people hate Islamics, thus it is hate speech?
