    I can't quite understand why he was fixed up enough to come back to life, but not enough to fix his mangled left hand - it still has a hole in it and that little finger has to be broken.
    If there's one sort of person I can't stand it's a god damned half jobber!

    Both hands, feet and the spear hole in his left side. Managed to have no damage from the crown of thorns though

    I know a significant number of people who would be outraged and offended by someone saying Freya is dead - to whom should I tell them to address email complaint ?

    :P

    I named my dog Freya (Because it sounds great!), she ain't dead.

    Let's just say that there's a scene in OZ that gives it a whole new meaning and leave it at that. :(

    From Alive, October 2013 -- hold onto your hats -- atheists are "mentally ill"!

    278790.png

    While in November's edition, we learn that (a) "In the Catholic view of things, walking on water is an entirely sensible thing to do. It’s staying in the boat, hanging on tightly to our own sad little securities, that’s rather mad" and (b) that the fact that one person has converted is worth almost half a page of prose.

    From the green paragraph in your first pic, I believe this is the Sean Thomas you quoted, lots of specious nonsense backed up solely by his flatulence.

    And here is his article on atheism. Of course his assertions are backed only by his own word (worthless), and that of the Heritage Foundation (akin to using Mein Kampf to prove a vast Jewish conspiracy to take over the world).

    Does the Alive editor not actually research the stuff he puts in his papers? Because being exposed to constant ridicule must be very embarrasing.

    I love how "Obviously, it's the believers who are smarter. Anyone who thinks otherwise is mentally ill" is followed by the next letter which is titled "I met an angel"

    I'm sorry. You took the time to post these, but I really can't bring myself to read them.

    Hard to know where to put this article -- hazards, abortion, republican fruitcakes, funny-side. Who knows. Anyhow, here it is.

    A Republican from Texas has finally come out and said that he accepts that climate change is happening. And -- mirabile dictu -- that humans are largely to blame. Unfortunately, it's not because of fossil fuels, but because of politicians supporting abortion. Baby steps, I suppose.

    David Barton, take it away!

    Salon.com wrote:
    The disastrous effects of global warming are most certainly man-made, said Christian historian David Barton. No, not because we’ve been burning fossil fuels. It’s because God is mad at us. And no, he’s not mad us for burning fossil fuels. All this “climate stuff that we can’t explain,” Barton explained in a conversation with televangelist Kenneth Copeland, is God’s judgment wrought down on us for, among other things, abortion.

    Together, the two worked out this basic sequence of events to explain their alternative theory of climate change:

    1. America voted in politicians who support abortion rights.

    2. In so doing, we “opened the door to the curse,” which includes floods, tornadoes, murder and pedophilia.

    Back in the days of early America, Barton explained, if crazy weather was happening, the first thing leaders would do is “call for a national day of repentance, humiliation, fasting and prayer … and today we’re saying, ‘Oh no, it’s global warming.’” In reality, he said, “We opened a door that lost God’s protection over our environment and that’s our choice.”

    Barton, who according to Mother Jones believes America should be governed by biblical law, is currently being pushed by Glenn Beck, among others, to challenge John Cornyn, R-Texas, for his Senate seat. From this, we can assume that he already has an updated climate plan in the works.

    BTW, can't say I'd like to meet that guy with the blue shirt on a dark night.

    Barton; "We've opened a door."

    He just watched 'The Avengers', and he's afraid of Loki and his army coming through. I can't wait until he tries to assemble a team of super-humans to combat the 'demons' and whatnot coming through this door.

    Those two need to be sectioned and examined. Not joking.

    Instead, the both appear to be married, so they are likely to have kids who have grown up under a roof filled with this insanity.

    Queue another generation of this, because rest assured, the blind faith and denial of any logic runs deep in these two. Kids wouldn't stand a chance :mad:
