GravatarWho do they think they are, Kansas?

Thank goodness for Keith Olbermann.


GravatarKennedy, meanwhile, is preparing to up the ante on those he believes abetted the GOP's electoral theft. In July, the outspoken attorney plans to file "whistle-blower" lawsuits against two leading manufacturers of electronic voting machines. According to Kennedy, company insiders are prepared to testify that the firms knowingly made false claims when they sold their voting systems to the government -- misrepresenting the accuracy, reliability and security of machines that will be used by 72 million voters this November.

GravatarI've enjoyed 4 of the last 6 bands that Atrios has posted about. That's better than reviews in Rolling Stone, but not New Music Express.


GravatarHow.


GravatarThe Arcade Fire have an accordiniste!


GravatarHow.

Why.


Gravatarwell, black clouds rolling in from the southwest...more rain and thunder.

wheee.


Gravatar"This is a unique way to try and stop these vendors," Kennedy tells Rolling Stone. "In both cases, our whistle-blowers are familiar with security problems that were well known by the vendors but concealed from election officials during the bidding process. Because we're relying on 'inside' knowledge, it is a far more frightening prospect to the company than a traditional lawsuit might be. And if we prove our case, we will hit the corporations the only place they feel it: in their pocketbooks."

ladytron (ditto)

belle & sebastian (sort of like modern folk or reconstructions of 60s style, but branching into everything from spoken word to 80s dance pop)
nikka costa (funky jazzy rock, from the daughter of frank sinatra's orchestral leader)
rammstein (you either love them or hate them. albums are very consistent and normally get better every time, though rosenrot was the first that was sort of weak even from a fan's perspective; it still had triumphs like rosenrot and wo bist du.)
air (sort of the opposite of rammstein: instead of german hard rock, it's french jazz electronica.)
new order (why did no one tell us that new order rocked, and did so across decades?!)
indigo girls (without them, dykes would just be women who liked other women.)
matisyahu (jewist fundamentalist "reclaiming" reggae; fear cooties on girls' hands.)
collette (sort of a reconstruction of 80s dance pop, mentioned favorably by others on these threads.)

GravatarHmm - things to do in Denver when you're fat- you may have noticed the radio station sponsoring it was KYGO, the redneck country station. From a recent article regarding the new Dixie Chicks album:

In Denver, KYGO program director Joel Burke also was bothered by the lyrics. KYGO tested the song, and while Burke said listeners reacted favorably, he isn't ready to add it to the playlist.

"The ticked-off factor is beginning to subside," Burke said. "There is an appetite that I'm beginning to see for the first time in nearly three years that people are interested in the Dixie Chicks again.

Banned Bands
Posted by: quinnskylark on May 18, 2006 1:50 PM [Report this comment]
Back in the very early 90s, before the band Chumbawumba was a one-hit-wonder, they expressed strong anarchist/anticommercial beliefs. Believe it or not, their politics were so overt, that the U.S. govt denied them the opportunity to enter country as a band. So they came in as tourists, individually...and then toured the country borrowing other people's instruments and playing in strange and unusual venues. I saw two of their shows in L.A. And still remember them as one of the best bands I've ever seen.

GravatarGWPDA, Stick in Mud

I remember as a very young child hearing my mom and her mother occasionally use the expression "stick in the mud".

And somehow I sort of figured out what it meant-- except I formed an indelible mental image of an actual stick, i.e. a dried and broken tree branch, lying in a mud puddle by the side of a road.

Years later I twigged that "stick" was a verb, but I can't dislodge the forlorn and abandoned muddy branch from my memory banks.

Better than the Matt Pond, PA cellist too, but I really like Matt Pond, PA.

GravatarI am so pissed off. Story in our paper today about how a local superintendent removed 2 books from the highschool reading list because 1 parent complained based on "swear words" she counted on Amazon.com!! She tried to get other parents involved, one of the moms interviewed said "after she called the first thing I did was buy the book. I don't believe in censorship." The head of the English department was not even consulted nor was the formal process for complaints followed. This fucknozzle of a superintendent who just started in May said "I think we need to review how these reading lists are established. Parents should have imput." The teacher said that she would quit before she would allow censorship based on Amazon to happen.

I hate these people! She needs to send her kids to the local xian school. She can decide what they read there.

I've never been able to take BaBa WaWa, and I'm a little freaked out by her persistence in TV suspended animation, in which she grows gauzier and less distinct by the day-- but nevertheless endures in this half-life with no sign of cessation and release.

I understand that there are virtual cyberbeings like these View chatterers and pols like Zsa Zsa Biden and the high-perched gargoyles from Tweety on down who apparently physically thrive in a TV studio environment, and consequently strive to maximize their on-air time.

They are, or will become, wraiths.

Not sure, mena.


GravatarOnce having solidified his position as an actor, he attempted to cross over into the music industry and made his debut with the 1985 album Night Rocker while still working on the show. After two moderately successful albums, he recorded "Looking for Freedom" in the summer of 1989 and released just as the Berlin Wall came down.

In Germany, his song became an anthem of sorts at the time, and the album went gold and triple platinum, topping the charts for three months whilst the single managed a mere eight weeks. He was later announced as the best selling artist of 1989 in Germany even prompting the newspaper headline "Hasselhoff: not since the Beatles". Since then another six of his albums have gone platinum in Europe.

GravatarIn 1994, David Hasselhoff was scheduled to perform a concert on pay-per-view from Atlantic City. It was supposed to help reignite his singing career in the United States. On the night of his concert, O.J. Simpson was involved in a police chase on the California highway. People who were watching the concert switched over to watch the news. Since then, Hasselhoff has not attempted another concert.


GravatarI've never been able to take BaBa WaWa

BaBa was coming to my wife's institution a few years back, and the public relations department asked my wife to handle it. She didn't want to fool with her, and handed it off to the person under her.

But the funny part, the girl went out and spent about a thousand bucks making herself look the best. When they ran the show, the only part of her that made the cut was her hand for about two seconds.


Gravatar"Kennedy, meanwhile, is preparing to up the ante on those he believes abetted the GOP's electoral theft. In July, the outspoken attorney plans to file "whistle-blower" lawsuits against two leading manufacturers of electronic voting machines."

IP, the Internet Protocol, is designed to run over any type of "Layer 2" technology (cable modem, DSL, satellite, dialup, etc), and the mid-90s joke was "IP [say it!] over everything".

GravatarLove, if you will. Because it can't last. There is no place for it in the world today, not even in Utah. We have eliminated it. It took us a long time, but man is resourceful and limitless in inventing too, and so we have got rid of love as last just as we have got rid of Christ. We have radio in the place of God's voice and instead of having to save emotional currency for months and years to deserve one chance to spend it all for love we can spread it thin into coppers and titillate ourselves at any newsstand, two to the block like sticks of chewing gum or chocolate from the automatic machines. If Jesus returned today we would have to crucify him quick in our own defense, to justify and preserve the civilization we have worked and suffered and died shrieking and cursing in rage and impotence and terror for two thousand years to create and perfect in man's own image; if Venus returned she would be a soiled man in a subway lavatory with a palm full of French post-cards--

War bill getting paid while lights go out at Army posts

FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas — While billions of military dollars are being spent on the war in Iraq, some Army posts back home can’t afford to pay the electricity bill or cut the grass.
...
But Col. Wendy Martinson, Fort Sam’s garrison commander, still lies awake at night worrying about what services she can afford to lose and what services she can’t — but will have to cut anyway.

“Every time something goes away it impacts a person ... a soldier or their family or one of our civilians,” said Martinson, whose post has 27,300 military and civilian workers. “I’m charged with taking care of them, not taking things away from them.”

Army short $5 billion for reset

Last winter, the Army said it needed $13.5 billion in emergency funding to repair Humvees, helicopters, trucks, tanks and other equipment during 2006. But when President George W. Bush sent his request for $92.2 billion in emergency funding to Congress, it included only $8.6 billion in “reset” funding for the Army.

GravatarAnd if they've "accepted" any welfare at all, they can't vote for two years after they're off the dole.


What is the logic of that, did he say? So you don't have a voice in the government that makes laws that affect your life and that of your children and your community because you got public assistance?

That makes NO sense.


GravatarHave you seen that Yoplait-drink commercial in which the chocolate drink is poured in such a way as to create the impression of the shape of a vagina?

Did someone say "sex sells"?

GravatarI was listening to Sam Seder replay his interview of that guy who started the Creationist museum, the one that show dioramas of European-looking cavemen wearing skins and hunting dinosaurs with spears, and all I could think was
Flinstones, meet the Flinstones
They're a moderstonic fa-mi-ly

TeeVee has truly ruined the minds of a generation.

GravatarChris Matthews was masterful tonight in disemboweling the Democrat Party. He left their balls on the railing and he did it with surgical precision. The swift boating of the Democrat Party for the Nov election has begun and they are once again helpless to do anything about it. Watch and learn how it's done.


GravatarA meaningful life is impossible with belief in God.


GravatarTo have two of everything, you know, would take a mighty big boat.

Tigers love manna. As do lions, wolves and platypi... Heck, practically every animal that didn't live in the Middle East was racing toward that ark for a 40 day MannaFest.

And man, you'd better not get in the way of those Polar bears - manna addicts, I tell ya!

That's God's graciousness... two of every animal and all the manna they could eat for 40 days. Then, it's 'so long, ark buddy! be sure and write, now!' as they left Camp Noah and headed home, all the while thanking God for killing every other living thing on Earth so they could take a 40 day Manna Cruise.

Plus, Noah had some funny sailing stories... and the skits? Oh, MAN, the skits!!


Gravatar"Nobody's lookin, flaggie ..."

On another matter: Mrs B hates Rita Cosby's voice.


GravatarWhat is the logic of that, did he say?

He hasn't said specifically that I've heard, but based on the rants I have heard, I'm assuming it's some sort of punishment for not being personally accountable.

Too bad you missed the Wolcott link. You should check it out.


GravatarSome of Tim Doctor's "philosophies":

Being an American is a state of mind, not a birth right.

There is no 1st Amendment without the 2nd Amendment to protect it.

Liberals and religious fundamentalists believe they have the moral right to force someone else to pay for their vision of society.

Liberalism is the Politics of the Weak in the American pecking order.

Poverty is a state of mind; wealth runs from it.


GravatarDemocrats want to reduce a meaningful life to the redistribution of money.
Money and materialism are not the basis for a meaningful life.


Gravatarbased on the rants I have heard, I'm assuming it's some sort of punishment for not being personally accountable.

Yeah, that's a real Libertarian principle ... NOT.


GravatarMy gaydar went off BIG time when I saw Tim Doctor's picture.

GravatarThe art, literature, and philosophy of the modern world has failed to provide a substitute for the judeo-christian religion.


GravatarMy gaydar went off BIG time when I saw Tim Doctor's picture.

Yeah, right, they employ people for 6-8 weeks and as soon as they rack up enough hours where they'd have to start paying benefits, they lay off that group of people and turn to another group.

GravatarOkay, now this is just disgusting.

The Republicans really intend to talk about Gitmo as a positive thing? They want to frame the Supreme Court's efforts to force the President and his minions to act like parties to the Constitution rather than thugs who are here to destroy the country as, and I'm quoting from the article,

"The president's fighting and killing terrorists and we think he has to be more gentle?" Stewart said. "The Democrats are making a gigantic mistake by going out and talking about what will be translated into English as the president is too tough on terrorists."

My God, if we let this go through, we really deserve to see the Constitution destroyed.

GravatarFrom Raw Story:
ISRAEL last night threatened to assassinate Palestinian Prime Minister Ismael Haniyeh if Hamas militants did not release a captured Israeli soldier unharmed.
The unprecedented warning was delivered to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in a letter as Israel debated a deal offered by Hamas to free Corporal Gilad Shalit.

It came as Israeli military officials readied a second invasion force for a huge offensive into Gaza.

GravatarWe knew there'd be a document dump today, being a holiday weekend and all.
Bingo.

WASHINGTON - In a report released today by the Department of Justice's Inspector General, Glenn Fine writes that Jack Abramoff wanted to take the credit for getting rid of the chief federal prosecutor for U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean - a man who opposed immigration exemptions for his client, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas. The report concludes that Abramoff actually played no role at all in replacing Frederick Black, the interim U.S. attorney for the territories.
{snip}
The report also contained evidence of Abramoff's strong ties to the Bush White House. One White House political official, Leonard Rodriguez, told Fine's investigators he kept Abramoff aware of information relevant to Guam "at the behest of Ken Mehlman, the White House Political Director," the report said. There was no explanation of why Mehlman would have wanted the information shared with Abramoff.

Gravatar"But the State of Israel remains curiously (and among Western-style democracies, uniquely) immature. The social transformations of the country - and its many economic achievements - have not brought the political wisdom that usually accompanies age. Seen from the outside, Israel still comports itself like an adolescent: consumed by a brittle confidence in its own uniqueness; certain that no one "understands" it and everyone is "against" it; full of wounded self-esteem, quick to take offense and quick to give it. Like many adolescents Israel is convinced - and makes a point of aggressively and repeatedly asserting - that it can do as it wishes, that its actions carry no consequences and that it is immortal."

GravatarBillionaire mort zuckerman on mclaughlin group: What's this banking thing? What's SWIFT? I never heard of SWIFT. At least not until the treasonous traitors at the nyts reported on SWIFT.

Billionaire mort zuckerman never heard of this banking thing SWIFT. mclaughlin says the "terrorist financiers have heard of SWIFT. SWIFT even has a web site." Billionaire zuckerman says "no the terrorist financiers have never heard of SWIFT. The terrorist financiers dumb."

So, billionaire zuckerman says the terrorist financiers never heard of SWIFT because they are dumb. I wonder why billionaire zuckerman has never heard of SWIFT?

About SWIFT
SWIFT is the financial industry-owned co-operative supplying secure, standardised messaging services and interface software to 7,800 financial institutions in more than 200 countries. SWIFT's worldwide community includes banks, broker/dealers and investment managers, as well as their market infrastructures in payments, securities, treasury and trade.

I am not making this up.

Except for the part about dedicating the song to Bush.

Time magazine this week oxymoronically praised the track "Ain't No Right Way" as a "nuanced defense of 'black and white' thinking". But remember, this is the Bizarro Time magazine that gave Karl Rove an entire page to sing the praises of Teddy Roosevelt.

Being a novice barrel burner, I dropped the entire load of newspapers into the barrel and, you guessed it, WHOOF!!! The flames came up, burned my eyebrows off and left such a stench of burnt nostril hairs in my nose that I had to breathe thru my mouth for the rest of the day.

GOP Seeks Advantage In Ruling On Trials

House Majority Leader John A.

GravatarThe episode was about a lesbian couple in Sweden. They were just so matter of fact, "we got married 4 years ago and we've outgrown this apartment."


Thanks alot 4legs!!!!

Now I have to divorce my wife because YOU AND THOSE DAMN SWEDES WEAKENED MARRIAGE!!!!!


GravatarWell... eet was vomitous een a good way.

Or maybe that was the peyote'.

The eighties, they are kind of a blur for ¡El Gato Negro!

so.


GravatarAnother movie that has always somewhat haunted me is "The Burglar" with James Caan and Tuesday Weld.

The whole collage thing, how he thinks his life was predestined.


GravatarThat is sort of like trying to define why the American "Dark Water" failed and the Japanese one was so good. I am not sure if you can.

I won't comment as to whether I've tried.


GravatarThey were so normal. Why can't the USA grow the fuck up?

Cuz then we'd be Europe, and Europe is icky? I guess...??

Ten thousand moments from "Singin' in the Rain" simultaneously bubbled into my consciousness.

I love that movie.

Where are you?

It's been raining here (though not in a few days)


GravatarThe eighties, they are kind of a blur for ¡El Gato Negro!

Didn't I play in a band with you? Quiet guy, long dark hair... licked himself, sometimes? Yeah, that sounds right...

Gato!!!


GravatarIt wouldn't hurt to clean your coffee maker with bleach, especially if you run water through it to rinse it afterwards. Chlorine breaks down pretty quickly also. My aunt used to always soak her dishes, after washing them, in a sink with a little Clorox added. They lived on a farm, and the Clorox knocked out any organisms that might have been in the well water. And once the bleach evaporates off of a hard surface, there really isn't anything left that's harmful.


GravatarEvening, all.

See you on the morrow!


GravatarDid you guys know the Hoover Dam is haunted?


GravatarAnother movie that has always somewhat haunted me is "The Burglar" with James Caan and Tuesday Weld.

That was a good one. But then I'm a sucker for Michael Mann's movies. If you like that playing with time thing, you should check out Out of Sight, which doesn't get the props it deserves because it starred Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. The seduction scene, where the visuals flash backward and forward while they're talking to each other, is one of the sexiest things I've ever seen on film.


GravatarTuesday Weld

I wouldn't mind seeing her next Wednesday.


Gravatarfourlegsgood,

"Let's see, equal justice for everyone translates to "special priviledges" for some."

We are in bizzaro world. Rank and file republicans can't be as dumb as boner thinks they are. But they are!

Is el drugbo still a spokesman for the right? How does he fit in with all those moral values? Why don't rank and file repubs ever notice the are being treated like complete morons?

Bizzar!

Scary part is we had sub 20 humidity a couple days this week as well. Not sure I ever remember that low here.


GravatarI think the last six years have once and for all enabled Karl Rove's Republican Party to metastasize from their party's '74 Watergate mortification, to some sort of bizarre, chest-beating pride in the whole sordid mess.

I think they're back to the "every president does it!" explanation of Watergate.

Err, that's not quite how things went down, nor quite why I asked about coffee and bleach. I was using powdered bleach to clean my drain and absentmindedly poured leftover coffee into the sink and all hell locally broke loose for a few moments in the unseen depths of my kitchen pipes.

Thank you for the information though.


GravatarDid you guys know the Hoover Dam is haunted?

huh what? an atheist that see's ghosts?

I guess all the rain missed you guys.

I do remember during the Katrina disaster, that folks were advised to add a capful of bleach to a gallon of local water that they intended to drink.


GravatarI never drink coffee without it's laced with bleach, personally.


GravatarAh fuck, here we ago again. THis is why the USA can't grow up: too many people actually believe crap like this.

"I can't imagine what it could be if it is not the Ark," said Arch Bonnema of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration (B.A.S.E) Institute, a Christian archeology organization dedicated to looking for biblical artifacts.

Bonnema and the other B.A.S.E. Institute members hiked for seven hours in the mountains northwest of Tehran, climbing 13,000 feet before making the apparent discovery.

"We got up to this object, nestled in the side of a hill," said Robert Cornuke, a member of the B.A.S.E. Institute. "We found something that has my heart skipping a beat."

At first, they didn't dare to hope it was the biblical boat.

"It wasn't impressive at first," Cornuke said. "Certainly didn't think it to be Noah's Ark. But when we got close, we were amazed. It looked similar to wood."


Gravatarhuh what? an atheist that see's ghosts?

What does being an atheist (which I'm not) have to do with seeing ghosts?

I just don't believe in jeebus.


GravatarI have an oddity. My sister - the yuppie - is home (instead of visiting this weekend) because she has shingles. I did not think too much of this but my other sister mentioned that two other people who have cottages in the same place on the same lake also have "shingles."

From my point of view this just seems two weird to be a coincidence. Anyone have thoughts?


GravatarI never drink coffee without it's laced with bleach, personally.

You're all about that edge.


Gravatar"I can't imagine what it could be if it is not the Ark," said Arch Bonnema of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration (B.A.S.E) Institute, a Christian archeology organization dedicated to looking for biblical artifacts.

Gravatar4lG

Just about. I had a 5 minute down pour the other day. Like a switch, boom, torrents, switch off. And that has been about it for a while.


GravatarChristian thinking at its best.

It looks like wood, therefore it is Noah's Ark.


GravatarI think they're back to the "every president does it!" explanation of Watergate.
fourlegsgood


Lee Atwater said he learned from Watergate to ATTACK, and NEVER admit defeat. And Atwater's protege, Karl Rove, always considered Atwater a pussy.


Gravatar But when we got close, we were amazed. It looked similar to wood.

So does wood grained formica.


GravatarMena - I'll check out "Out of Sight". I remember passing on it because was not much into watching JLo when it came out. We have unlimited check out account at Blockbuster around the corner.


GravatarHuh?
EkCenTriK

I hate that movie.

sorry, shoulda added

GravatarDWD - shingles is caused by a type of herpes virus. Like all viruses, it is passed from person to person. So it's quite possible that it's no coincidence.


Gravatar"We got up to this object, nestled in the side of a hill," said Robert Cornuke, a member of the B.A.S.E. Institute. "We found something that has my heart skipping a beat."

I forgot a cake in the oven once and it too looked like wood.


Could it be Noah's ark?


GravatarHere's a useful study that found that vinegar and hydrogen peroxide make wonderful kitchen and food disinfectants.


GravatarAgave agreed. Made as much sense as Gothic as well. (Another one that I asked for my money back)


GravatarDWD - Blogofascist and proud

I think shingles comes from once having had scarlet fever or something as a child. Something about an infection being dormant for ages and hits when you're old? Or not.

Not really. Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chicken pox.

Maybe they were all exposed to the same source.


GravatarWhat does being an atheist (which I'm not) have to do with seeing ghosts?

I just don't believe in jeebus.

but i never said jeebus. =)
I said ghosts, what is a ghost , if I may ask?

GravatarMeanwhile, an alert has gone out, that the Bloggers and Commenters are threatening America by discussing really bad movies and the weather. What next, Cats? The horror of it all.


Gravatar"There's this idea, if we can prove that the Ark existed then we can prove that the story existed, and more importantly, we can prove that God existed," said Bruce Feiler, author of "Where God Was Born."

...and then there's angels, and Jesus, and then we'll have the Rapture, and I'll go to heaven, but I'll be naked,...


Gravatar"It wasn't impressive at first," Cornuke said. "Certainly didn't think it to be Noah's Ark.

At least based on the Polaroids that Noah's wife had taken and put in the scrapbook...


GravatarI think shingles comes from once having had scarlet fever or something as a child. Something about an infection being dormant for ages and hits when you're old? Or not.

Nope. Chicken pox virus. It can remain dormant, or it can come from a new exposure.

I know, my little brother had them as a child, which IS a real oddity. Kids almost never get shingles.

His case was so bad he ended up in isolation for a week and made the medical textbooks.


GravatarOK.
Melissa and I are having a 'discussion'

Where did the wierd spelling of the Incas and Mayans come from if they didn't have writing? or did they?

.


GravatarHeh - just watching the kid with his fingers in his ears several seconds before Eva Marie Saint plugs Cary Grant at Mt. Rushmore.


GravatarWhat is shingles, and who can get it?
Shingles is another name for a condition called "herpes zoster." It causes a painful rash. You can only get shingles if you had chickenpox in the past or if you have had the chickenpox vaccine ("shot").

After you have chickenpox (usually as a child), the virus that causes it stays in your body in certain nerve cells. Most of the time your immune system keeps the chickenpox virus in these cells. As you get older, or if your immune system gets weak, the chickenpox virus may escape from the nerve cells and cause shingles.

Most people who get shingles are more than 50 years old or have a weak immune system. For example, you might get shingles if you have cancer, take medicines that weaken your immune system or have the virus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome).


GravatarWell I knew children were involved.


GravatarI said ghosts, what is a ghost , if I may ask?

It is a spook, you dope.


GravatarI just don't believe in jeebus.

I'll take Jeebus over his SOB of a father, anyday...

God was no Peacemaker...


Gravatarpreviously pre, good one with B.A.S.E.


GravatarIs there an environmental cause - the water they drink? The lake water? that could cause this?

My coincidene meter goes off the scale with three people of a population of less than 25 come up with the same disease at the same time.


GravatarWhat next, Cats? The horror of it all.

Were you around for my brief spurt in Cat Blogging?

In retrospect it was pretty horrific.


GravatarMeeses.

And nighty night everybody.


GravatarEven though LBJ was twisted up six ways to Sunday in Indochina, I'd love to see his bossy 6'4" frame meet up with Shrub and Rove in a White House hallway.


GravatarI don't know about Hoover, but I am quite convinced, as an atheist, that my dental dam is haunted by the ghost of Jeebus.


GravatarMena - I'll check out "Out of Sight". I remember passing on it because was not much into watching JLo when it came out.

It will come as no surprise that one of the most seductive scenes in the film occurs in her trunk.


GravatarWhat is shingles, and who can get it?

The doctors thought my brother got them from an exposure from the neighbor's kid.

Rare, but apparently possible.

Actually, extremely rare. So rare that it took the doctors a week to figure out what was wrong with him.

Her trunk, or the trunk of her car?


GravatarLike many mythologies, the events in the Bible are based on actual happenings. There's just a layer of phantasmagorical mysticism on top to wow the uneducated people.

I wouldn't be surprised to find "the ark", but that has nothing to do with proving God is real. Besides, the whole idea behind religion is that it's an act of faith. If you "prove" God exists you don't need faith anymore, and God would cease to exist. (I think Douglas Adams made this point in a better way.)


GravatarWhich trunk? -Chris/TX

The one with all the junk in it.


GravatarWhere did the wierd spelling of the Incas and Mayans come from if they didn't have writing? or did they?

make a pyramid, obelisk, of the alphabet and see =)


GravatarMaybe he'd twist their ears.

Wouldn't it be great if he picked up shrub by HIS ears???


GravatarHerpes zoster, the virus responsible for chicken pox and shingles.

If the folks who have come down with shingles all came into contact with a child with chicken pox, I suppose it could cause the virus in their bodies to break dormancy.


GravatarTurtles.

.


GravatarThe one with all the junk in it.

Well, that clears up a lot.



Gravatar(I think Douglas Adams made this point in a better way.)

So did Dostoevsky, in one of the finest pieces of literature I've ever had the pleasure to read (Brothers Kazamarov). Something about the Grand Inquisitor...


GravatarLike many mythologies, the events in the Bible are based on actual happenings. There's just a layer of phantasmagorical mysticism on top to wow the uneducated people.

Not exactly, no. These narratives pre-date our modern notions of "objective reality," so it's not really a matter of adding a layer of mysticism. There are simply different hermeneutic standards at work.


GravatarG'night mena! Call me next time you're feeling pouty!


GravatarHis case was so bad he ended up in isolation for a week and made the medical textbooks.

The poor kid is sick and they're forcing him to make textbooks??? What kind of sadistic hospital did they run there?

GravatarLike many mythologies, the events in the Bible are based on actual happenings.

I have my doubts about that talking snake and all those old people having kids at the age of 150 and all.

I don't believe food fell from the sky on the isralites either.


GravatarThe poor kid is sick and they're forcing him to make textbooks??? What kind of sadistic hospital did they run there?



[Those would be laughing faces if I could figure out how to type them.]


Gravatarlol, people here still argue religion before intelligence or words.


GravatarThe poor kid is sick and they're forcing him to make textbooks??? What kind of sadistic hospital did they run there?

His head swelled up so bad he looked like a monster.

His shingles were on his optic nerve and he got a staph infection in both of his eyes.

It was gruesome.


GravatarThere are simply different hermeneutic standards at work.

Heh. Indeed.


GravatarThere are simply different hermeneutic standards at work.

You're gonna get us infected with pasteaters if you keep up that kind of talk.


GravatarIt was gruesome.

Turned out okay in the end though, right? I'm hoping so, anyway.


Gravatardo you think romans were born by name of society or by nature?

why do you put words, thought, and texts, before the mind of man and his intelligence?


GravatarThis is why every child needs Universal Health Coverage...

My dad was still in the AF at the time. He was in a military hospital in San Antonio.

I think the doctors enjoyed the whole thing. They love seeing something unusual.


Gravatarwhy do you put words, thought, and texts, before the mind of man and his intelligence?

I wonder where those words, thought, and texts came from?


GravatarTurned out okay in the end though, right? I'm hoping so, anyway.

Oh, yeah. He lived and he's a good looking kid.

Crazy as a loon though. (nothing to do with the shingles)


GravatarI have my doubts about that talking snake and all those old people having kids at the age of 150 and all.

I don't believe food fell from the sky on the Israelites either.
fourlegsgood


These could easily be primitive explanations of advanced technology.

Talking snake: speaker on the end of a cable or something.

Food falling from the sky: we did this to Afghanistan, dropping MREs from airplanes.

Maybe the old people were really the aliens that colonized Earth and had all the technology...


GravatarI'd avoid whatever drug Pious Pete's got his hands on.

Just a word of advice...


Gravatarwhy do you put words, thought, and texts, before the mind of man and his intelligence?

Gravatar4LG, Ambien is kicking in but I did want to say/ask this. The presence of a spirit world would seem to indicate the existence of a spirit leader - or god.

If you believe in specrtral manifestations of the soul, then it almost goes without saying that you believe in the hierarchy of the thoughts that religions are based upon.

I've always had a fondness for Erich von Däniken's theories. Sure, it was all speculation with nothing more than circumstantial evidence, but I find his conjecture a hell of a lot more plausible than religion.


GravatarIf you believe in specrtral manifestations of the soul, then it almost goes without saying that you believe in the hierarchy of the thoughts that religions are based upon.

Why must there be a hierachy, though? Couldn't souls/spirits exist for the sake for the sake of their own existence? Can't things just 'be'?
