You are an Idiot #1 - The Pro-Choice Bumper Sticker

I saw this bumper sticker today on my drive home from work. Now beside the obvious keyword of CHOICE something else struck me as odd.

You see I know that Christmas started as a Pagan holiday to celebrate the worst of winter being over and how it was changed into a holiday about a man allowing himself to be killed for your sins and how it's changed even more to be more about ham and presents.

I thought to myself, Self? (Because that's what I call myself) this guy must be an idiot! OF COURSE, there still would be a Christmas since the holiday started century's before christens came on to the scene. So what are you trying to tell me? That you are an Idiot?!

If you own this bumper sticker you might want to read up on the Christmas holiday at a good website like the HISTORY CHANNEL and gain some intelligence on the matter and stop proving to everyone around you that you are an idiot.

Pope Benedict XVI has reasserted that other Christian denominations were not true churches.

"Pope Benedict XVI has reasserted the universal primacy of the Roman Catholic Church, approving a document released Tuesday that says Orthodox churches were defective and that other Christian denominations were not true churches."

===========================

*Sigh* and so it begins.

For a man in the Popes position, a man of power, a position that just commands respect and loyalty, who's thoughts effect millions of people.. he's a total dumb ass.

This why Dogma piss me off, and why people piss me off. Here's millions of people that are going to start a holy war JUST because some asshat says 'If it's not Catholic it's shit.'
and they will blindly follow him just because some other group of men said: 'Yeah.. this guy.. he's da Pope'

WHY would the Pope try to start a fight? WHY would a man of that position be more worried about how/what other people think then worry about the greater problems of the Earth like the Bush presidency, world hunger, Global warming, and that we are slowly killing everyone off the face of the earth?

Growing up Christan and though all the studies I've done on different thoughts and ideas about 'God' or what ever you call your higher power.. they ALL say, pretty much, the same thing:

1) Live with Compassion for your fellow human.
2) Don't harm each other or yourself.
3) Earn the Respect each other.

3 simple rules. Which most people (Thank God) tend to follow.

*shakes head* I just don't understand it people. I don't understand why people get caught up on shit like this. HOW many people have been killed in the name of 'God' or some other god like figure? How many wars have been started because some people refused to believe in a God you tried to force them to believe?

if we ALL followed the 3 simple rules above.. there wouldn't be a REASON to have religion.
and 1/2 of the worlds problems would just melt away.

I'm going to start a church and call it 'Pogism' There is no church building. You don't need to send me (well you could if you wanted. ;) ) or anyone else money. You don't need to get out of bed early on Sunday to listen to some man basically tell you the same thing over and over. You don't need to stop looking at Internet porn.

All you need to do is follow 3 simple rules:
1) Live with compassion for your fellow human being.
(Of ALL races.. Which I really shouldn't need to point out)
2) Don't harm each other or yourself.
3) Earn the Respect each other.

That's it, that's all there is to it. Is there a heaven or hell? yes, but that's what YOU make out of life. It's YOUR life and it's YOUR hands. Don't try to hand off your life to something else to live for you. Better yourself, and make your life heaven for you, and if that's sitting around the house naked eating cheese-its. Who am I to judge what makes you happy. =)

If you can life by those 3 rules, welcome to the church of Pogism.
Everyone is welcome as long as you follow the rules.

and what if you can't follow the rules? Will you burn in hell? No, but then you can't be in our click and you'll feel bad because you can't be apart of the fun and we'll mock you behind your back and call you a 'Sheep' because you are unwilling to unlearn what you have learned and to afraid to think for yourself. Sheep just huddle together and do what they are told.

Are you a sheep?

2) They bleed without injury (for ~7 days no less...)
3) and They make boneless things hard.

Why do we believe in God?

The cover story in this week's NY Times Magazine is called Darwin's God and covers, from an evolutionary biology standpoint, why people believe in God. Most scientists studying the matter believe that humans have a built-in mechanism for religious belief. For instance, anthropologist Scott Atran sometimes conducts an intriguing experiment with his students:

His research interests include cognitive science and evolutionary biology, and sometimes he presents students with a wooden box that he pretends is an African relic. "If you have negative sentiments toward religion," he tells them, "the box will destroy whatever you put inside it." Many of his students say they doubt the existence of God, but in this demonstration they act as if they believe in something. Put your pencil into the magic box, he tells them, and the nonbelievers do so blithely. Put in your driver's license, he says, and most do, but only after significant hesitation. And when he tells them to put in their hands, few will. If they don't believe in God, what exactly are they afraid of?

Or rather, why are they afraid? One possible reason is that humans are conditioned to be on the lookout for "agents" and we tend to find them even when they're not there:

So if there is motion just out of our line of sight, we presume it is caused by an agent, an animal or person with the ability to move independently. This usually operates in one direction only; lots of people mistake a rock for a bear, but almost no one mistakes a bear for a rock.

What does this mean for belief in the supernatural? It means our brains are primed for it, ready to presume the presence of agents even when such presence confounds logic. "The most central concepts in religions are related to agents," Justin Barrett, a psychologist, wrote in his 2004 summary of the byproduct theory, "Why Would Anyone Believe in God?" Religious agents are often supernatural, he wrote, "people with superpowers, statues that can answer requests or disembodied minds that can act on us and the world."

Another reason for the instinctive religious impulse may be that people are able to put themselves in other peoples' minds, to think about how another person might be feeling or thinking:

Folkpsychology, as Atran and his colleagues see it, is essential to getting along in the contemporary world, just as it has been since prehistoric times. It allows us to anticipate the actions of others and to lead others to believe what we want them to believe; it is at the heart of everything from marriage to office politics to poker. People without this trait, like those with severe autism, are impaired, unable to imagine themselves in other people's heads.

The process begins with positing the existence of minds, our own and others', that we cannot see or feel. This leaves us open, almost instinctively, to belief in the separation of the body (the visible) and the mind (the invisible). If you can posit minds in other people that you cannot verify empirically, suggests Paul Bloom, a psychologist and the author of "Descartes' Baby," published in 2004, it is a short step to positing minds that do not have to be anchored to a body. And from there, he said, it is another short step to positing an immaterial soul and a transcendent God.

There's lots more in the article...it's well worth a read.

Hmmm.. Yeah...

A blonde girl comes rushing home to her mum and says: "Mummy mummy! Today at school everyone could only count to 3 but I can count to 5. Look - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Does that mean I am special mummy?"

"Yes dear it does."

The next day the blonde girl comes running in again and says: "Mummy mummy! Today at school everyone could only say the alphabet from A to C but I can go until E. Look - A, B, C, D, E. Does that mean I am special mummy?"

"Yes dear it does."

The next day the blonde girl comes rushing home and says "Mummy mummy! Today at school we were getting changed for physical exercises and all the other girls had really flat chests but I had these ...!" She opens her blouse and reveals a humungous pair of DD breasts. "Is it because I am special mummy?"










"No dear it's because you are 25."

A COONASS

A COONASS asked a waiter to take a bottle of Merlot to an unusually attractive woman sitting alone at a table in a cozy little restaurant. So the waiter took the Merlot to the woman and said, "This is from the gentleman who is seated over there."...and indicated the sender with a nod of his head.

She regarded the wine coolly for a few seconds, not looking at the man, then decided to send a reply to him by a note. The waiter, who was lingering nearby for a response, took the note from her and conveyed it to the gentleman.

The note read: "For me to accept this bottle, you need to have a Mercedes in your garage, a million dollars in the bank and 7 inches in your pants ."

After reading the note, the COONASS decided to compose one of his own in return. He folded the note, handed it to the waiter and instructed him to deliver it to the lady.

It read: "Just to let you know things aren't always what they appear to be, I have a Ferrari Maranello, BMW Z8, Mercedes CL600, Porsche Turbo, Toyota Prius and a Toyota Matrix in my several garages; beautiful homes in Aspen, Miami, and a 10,000 acre ranch in LOUISIANA, There is over twenty million dollars in my bank account and portfolio.


But, not even for a woman as beautiful as you are, would I cut off three inches.
Just send the bottle back.

How to protect your computer...

Born a Baptist...

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak. But all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic and since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest. The Priest came to visit Bubba and suggested that he become a Catholic.

After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass and as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, "You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic."

Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved until Friday night arrived and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison again filled the neighborhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors and as he rushed into Bubba's yard clutching a rosary preparing to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.

There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:

"You wuz born a deer,
you wuz raised a deer,
but now you is a catfish."

The Spanish Computer...

The Spanish Computer

A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine. "House" for instance, is feminine: "la casa." "Pencil," however, is masculine: "el lapiz."

A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?" Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.

Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation. The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.


The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ("el computador"), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.


The women won.

Chicago Bears football practice was delayed

CHICAGO (AP) -- Chicago Bears football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field. Head coach Lovie Smith immediately suspended practice while police and federal investigators were called to investigate. After a complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to the players was the goal line.
Practice resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again...

GO COLTS!!!

Tom Brady, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God
was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a
faded Patriot's flag in the window. "This house is yours for eternity,
Tom," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up
here!" Tom felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house.

On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the
corner. It was a 3-story mansion with a Blue & White sidewalk, a 50-foot
tall flagpole with an enormous Colts logo flag, and in every window, a
Colts towel.

Tom looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I
have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I hold many NFL records, and I
even won a few Super bowls."

God said "So what's your point Tom?"

"Well, why does Peyton get a better house than me?"

God chuckled, and said: "Tom, that's not Peyton's house, it's mine."


GO COLTS!!!

American Idol

It's funny to me how some of these people have voices that sound like they gargled with razor blades and whome can't hold a tune in a bucket, with a lid, glued down, nailed down, wrapped in chains, padlocked, vaccum sealed, and wrapped in plastic wrap but STILL have the balls to tell Simon that he doesn't know anything about music. *sigh* Stupid Humans.

I've seen some shady vendors on those comparison shopping sites jack up their shipping costs and low-ball the item price so that it'll appear at the top of the list. As Vickie discovered, that strategy didn't quite work here. Nice try TigerDirect!

Jeeze, Chris, talk about a wide-screen monitor ...

Although Marv found this EULA from World of Warcraft a bit confusing at first, once he broke it down, solved the cipher, decoded it, and read it thoroughly, it made a lot of sense ...

From Michael N, at a price like that, I can't imagine that laptop would be anything but a "top seller" ...

We all know that no one ever wins those "CLICK HERE FOR A FREE XBOX 360" ads, so I'm glad that at least one place is upfront about it (from Rob)...

Kostas Stroggylos hopes they come up with some sort of algorithm to go through those pages. 18 quintillion is a lot of pages to read ...

The irony in this last message (sent in by John) is that it was received via interoffice mail and is a photocopy of a fax of a printed screenshot. The "Send Report" manages to do the same thing, though a bit more efficiently ...

The Perpetual Baby

 

Brooke Greenberg is an infantile 13-year-old.
She looks like an infant, acts like an infant, and has been this way for the past thirteen years.  Her parents have simply adjusted to the forever baby, as medical science is completely unable to explain her condition.
She’s been through a variety of medical near-misses, including a brain tumor that sprouted and then mysteriously shrank, and multiple warnings from doctors that sent her parents scrambling for a casket and burial outfit, only to have her recover rapidly and inexplicably.
Her parents say that while they initially expected her to die quickly, they now are fully prepared for her to outlive them all.  Her father calls her the Fountain of Youth.
I hope she does outlive them.  The existence of a genuine forever baby would please me greatly.
