LOL! Yeah, thanks, Harry. That's a real side splitter for sure. Hey

straws...

You don't think it is funny that some bat**** crazy religious school
wants its girl students to dress properly in case their residential
buildings catch on fire? I suppose if prudishness is your driving force,
it is better for the girls to be burned alive than to be seen in their
jammies.


Don't you think it's funny that a high powered and supposedly
respected Senator would stoop so low to make up, if not believe
ridiculous claims to overcoat a tragedy?

the testimony refuted her claim.


What I can't figure out is why the Republicans are working so hard to
try to make a scandal about the deaths of four people in a dangerous
country. Your boy Bush, after all, started wars under false pretenses
that killed more than 4000 Americans and the GOP response was "stuff
happens."

Meanwhile, there's a school run by bat**** crazy religious people who
want girls to pause to dress properly if their dorm catches on fire.
D'oh. I'm sure the crazies are misinterpreting some part of the bible, eh?

What's funny to me is that 21st Century christians believe their bible,
"the word of god," is a book edited in the 17th Century from 16th
Century translations of about 8,000 contradictory copies of 4th Century
scrolls that claim to be copies of lost letters written in the 1st Century.

That's right. The oldest manuscripts available were written down
hundreds of years after the last apostle died...8,000 manuscripts, no
two alike.

But the crew of King James didn't use any of these, anyway. They edited
previous translations and created a version that their king and their
parliament would approve.

Belief in god is a concept an agnostic like me can understand and
appreciate. Belief in a holy book "written down" in the 17th Century to
please a king? Is that faith or insanity?
