201. Ice Age blast 'ravaged America'

Comment #44141 by TIKI AL on May 23, 2007 at 12:26 pm

Was there fossil blast evidence at the South Carolina site of people being thrown from their dinosaurs?

The fundies down there think denial is a river in South America.

I was just floating in the pool here in Tempe, Arizona when a shooting star caught my eye. I looked up and thought I saw a pallored fat man in an ascension robe fly by.

Can joy induce hallucinations?

If Mr. Jones was born in Baghdad he would be a brainwashed Muslim. Nothing new here.

"Why do the religious - especially Christians! - think that, with their track record on such matters, any contemporary thinking person would seek their "expertise" in addressing moral dilemmas or determining the age of the universe?"

...Well there was that time when a Section 8 pedephile moved in across the street, and God bless our neighbor Father Murphy for spotting him right off the bat and also getting him reassigned to another neighborhood out of walking distance.

"While the American cultural landscape includes many religions, it's still fascinating to watch closely when we have the chance to observe a new faith being born."

...Like Scientology?

205. Time in the Animal Mind

Comment #29728 by TIKI AL on April 4, 2007 at 1:38 pm

So the coyote that wandered into the Chicago Quisnos won't try it again because it was dragged out by the neck by animal control?

Should the same fate befall the chimp that somehow got into the White House, would it try to return or would episodic memory prevail?

Yawn. Another victim of generational young mushy brain-washing.

If Clarkson was born in Baghdad he would have the knees of a carpet installer from facing East 5 times a day and planting IEDs at night.

You guys have more patience with this Godbot than I do. It's like trying to talk to a drunk.

scottishrockcanine: BINGO!

Thanks for the link, my favorite is the Curious George pilot. The decider has just under 666 days left to "hang" in there. (barring impeachment)

Has this development reached the White House yet?

And yet it continues: South Carolina is introducing a law that would LEGALLY REQUIRE a woman to look at a picture of the fetus before having an abortion.

This act would clearly not give her enough guilt at a difficult time in her life, a better punishment would be to tatoo a big red "A" on her forehead.

I wonder if the enlightened members of the South Carolina legislature will also make the women have an exorcism during the abortion.

If the odds of winning were increased, could the lottery outdistance God in rube pacification?

A Sunday drive thru any trailer park in the good senator's district 8, Blount co.,Tenn. should put to rest once and for all any possibility of intelligent design.

212. The return of God?

Comment #23861 by TIKI AL on March 3, 2007 at 8:24 am

"Wolpert - a Jew who lost his faith when he was 15"

At 15 I was confirmed in the Evangelical Lutheran Church due to a promise to my mother.
At no time did I ever believe any of the generational brainwashing.

I asked far fetched "hypotheological" questions which drove the teacher to drink and got 3 members of the class to come over to the dark side.

What if Craig had met a girl with a smile and a brain?

If parents force cigarettes and booze on their offspring they are arrested.

If they force religious generational brainwashing on them they are made president of the PTA.

Welcome to America.

Comment #23266 by TIKI AL on February 27, 2007 at 9:18 am

So you didn't get the "M.D. stands for medical deity" memo either?

Last month I had to enlighten my doctor on the study by the Mayo Clinic on Hot Tub Lung. I saw him google it on my way out.

Comment #9829 by TIKI AL on November 26, 2006 at 6:59 am

It's amazing how a simplistic book with pretty glossy pictures can mesmerize people with simple minds. "My Pet Goat" had that effect on Bush when we were under attack.

Oh, and didn't Captain Nemo already try that island thing?

robzrob: Thanks for the clarification. It appears we took your voluminous post the wrong way, sorry.

Do you write "jokes" for John Kerry?

robzrob: Could you please come back and explain your sarcastic 3 word post?

Are you a braindead theist, or a braindead book reviewer?

Rumsfeld could have called on his old friend Sadaam to capture or kill Osama and his top leadership in exchange for dropping the sanctions.

We would have had Osama's head on a stick, a peaceful Iraq keeping Iran in check, no dead and injured soldiers or civilians, no treasure down the Thomas Crapper, and Rummy would have another picture shaking hands with Saadam for his office, which he would not have been kicked out of.

Most religious hypocrites that I have met ARE braindead, at least robzrob admits it. Bravo!

Comment #9376 by TIKI AL on November 24, 2006 at 3:50 pm

How stupid do you have to be to have the rare advantage of starting out life with an atheist mother, and somehow screw it up?

Was procuring a job or being offered money somehow involved in this epiphany?

221. To be Read at my Funeral

Those who wish to do so may place a flower on my grave, and those who feel quite differently may stradle it and mimic the incontinent.

Unable to give thanks or outrage, there will be no need to hook up the Houdini horn, I won't be talking.

Comment #6215 by TIKI AL on November 13, 2006 at 7:38 am

Did the deamonizing witch hunts of godless commies in the 50's help to send intelligent productive atheists to the closet, instead of the campaign trail?
