......former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was presented with the [Conservative Political Action] conference's "Defenders of the Constitution" award. Was that the Nazi Constitution?Now that is humor! of a very twisted sort..... There is no better love between 2 people than mutual respect for each other WT Young, 2002 Who gave anyone the authority to call me an authority on anything. WT Young, 1969 Since Evolution is only ~90% correct it should be thrown out and replaced by Creation which has even a lower % of correctness. W T Young, 2008

My latest little ditty ...
Two By Two, Hurrah! Antediluvian heteromyidaemust have belonged to a reprobate race; God in his wrath at their sinful society did for the lot of them (all but a brace). Poor little pocket-mice, lacking in buoyancy, must have been sinners in some sort of way When God decided to show his annoyance, he flooded the planet and made them all pay. But fortunate fishes, though equally wicked,felt unperturbed by the rise in the sea. "You mammals are in for it now", they all snickered, "somehow or other we get off scot-free." Antediluvian ornithorhynchisinned against God, though it's doubtful they knew; after he (wrathfully) had a good think, he found a solution and drowned all but two. Poor little platypods, up to their necks in it, somehow attracted the deity's spite. Though to the monotremes dying was vexing, it (heaven knows why) must have served them all right. But fortunate fishes, though equally evilasked why the mammals would make such a fuss and cried "Bring your Flood by the ocean- and sea-full! --- isn't it wonderful weather for us?" Antediluvian myrmecophagesirked the Almighty (oh, how did they dare?) Yahweh, in one of his typical rages slaughtered the lot of them, all but a pair. Poor little anteaters, dying aquatically, must have done something displeasing to him; what other reason would cause him dramatically thus to take vengeance on those who can't swim? But fortunate fishes, forgiven their sins, andnot on the deity's tally of kills, just swam around grinning and waving their fins, and smugly continued to breathe though their gills.

Dammit, Doc! Digital Cuttlefish now has a rival in the Geek Poetry game! I doubt that "myrmecophages" has ever been in a single rhyming dictionary - until tomorrow!

If you're in the US and enjoy comedy, please watch my boy's Comedy Central Presents tomorrow night at 10pm(eastern) on Comedy Central.
He's my best friend, we started out together and I have lots of love for this dude. Plus high ratings helps out the ventures he and I are planning, to include help funding our Euro Tour - and I'd like to stay in nice hotels when we do this, so watch his Presents!

Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. -- Thomas Jefferson We see monsters where science shows us windmills. -- Phat It has always struck me as odd that fundies devote so much time and effort into trying to find a naturalistic explanation for their mythical flood, while looking for magical explanations for things that actually happened. -- Dr. Adequate ...creationists have a great way to detect fraud and it doesn't take 8 or 40 years or even a scientific degree to spot the fraud--'if it disagrees with the bible then it is wrong'.... -- archaeologist

I wrote the following ditty in response to Message 338. But that thread was all serious and stuff. So I didn't post it. Anyway here it is. The Spirituality Masterclass:
Oni writes: Sam Harris would be an example of someone who is spiritual, studies eastern philosophy and meditates, yet, has zero belief in anything supernatural. I fall under the same catagory. I'm both spiritual and meditate. Sit back. Relax. Take a break from reality.Time for us all to get a little spirituality. Tranquility and inner peace. Providing a much needed mental release. EvC posses all in attendance. Hoping to experience full on trascendence. Sam Harris and Oni are gonna teach us some yoga. Harris butt naked. Oni in a toga. The whale song is playing. The candles are lit. Oni about to start class. Harris looks like he's having a fit. What is that smell? Oni enquires. It's Harris's pubes. His balls are on fire. Holy shit!! Dude sat down on a candle. RAZD pulls the extinguisher handle. "I'm OK" Harris winces with pain. Nothing some meditation can't contain. Bluegenes thinks he needs medical attention. Harris says "No. I must achieve Nirvanic ascension". Everyone settles. The class resumes. It's really hard to ignore the rancid fumes. "Right" says Oni "We'll try a new technique" I first came across this one only last week Left leg like this. Right leg like that. Now over the head with all the grace and poise of a cat. "There you see" beams Oni "That wasn't so hard" Before toppling over like a house of cards. Harris looks ill. His bollocks are charred. That poor sucker is gonna have some serious scars Meanwhile Oni has hit his head and is seeing stars. Dr Adequate declares "There guys are fucking retards" Cavediver gets up to make his way out. As he leaves he is compelled to shout. "I came here for a spirituality master class" "Instead we have rancid pubes and a guy who needs a plaster cast". Now the others are leaving fast. Keen to leave this spirituality master farce. Please don't go cries Oni. Oh help! Oh fuck! I can't untie myself. My legs are stuck. Oni walks sideways on his hands like a crab. Strags shakes his head. He thought yoga would be drab. Percy and Mod try to untie the human knot. Oni's toga isn't hiding a lot. Needless to say Nirvana wasn't achieved. Lucky to escape that place with no-one bereaved. Had to dislocate Oni's knees to get him out of his fix. He will never now walk without the aid of sticks. Harris was eventually castrated and is undergoing HRT. Such are the dangers of spirituali-ty. But if you ever want to leave your troubles behind. You ever need a chance to unwind. Don't let the hilarity pass. Of attending a Harris and Oni spirituality masterclass. Just don't let those candles anywhere near your ass. Edited by Straggler, : No reason given.

Mr Lewis was pretty precocious to write that fifty years before he was born. Otherwise, nice poster!

Coyote, am I correct that there are many on the right side who think it's the left side that is drifting into Fascism (I think Rush Limbaugh once buttoned off a caller, heatedly exclaiming "...why......You Nazi Communist!")? It's curious that both sides feel this way. Curious and very sad. - xongsmith, 5.7d

The left-right dichotomy doesn't work well for our current political climate; it is a (minimum) two axis problem and it can't be described accurately using only one axis.

It's curious that both sides feel this way. Curious and very sad. Here is a better visualization. Take a look and if you think it is worth discussing I'd be happy to join you on a new thread. ps. There are other such political charts out there that might be interesting to discuss as well. pss. Rush's comment doesn't fit with this model.

Take a look and if you think it is worth discussing I'd be happy to join you on a new thread. ps. There are other such political charts out there that might be interesting to discuss as well. Such as Message 37 and Message 41 from the Political Compass thread earlier. This Pournelle Chart is hard for me to figure where I am. Maybe somewhere half-way between the Socialists and the Various Libertarians, above the Welfare Liberals. Maybe call it 3.0 horizontally and 3.8 vertically? - xongsmith, 5.7d

Correct, Jerry Pournelle.
His Ph.D.s were in Political Science and Psychology so he has some experience in the area.

The Far Left Side is one of the things I look at every day (assuming I have internet access that day).
RAZD didn't mention it, but there is a fair amount of text down-page from that cartoon. That should also be read. Moose
