Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption and homosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption. Even non-religious people know this.
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have succeeded at framing themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.
Dead-to-the-spirit deluded "God Delusion" author & blithering fool scientist goon Richard Dawkins another "leader" given to the profane masses is another useful idiot for Jesuit machinations-C.O.
Jesuitical: pertaining to the Jesuits or their principals; designing; cunning; deceitful; prevaricating
The Jesuit Order completely altered the education system to suit their Evo-Hoax agenda to discredit the Bible. They cant have a Satanic society of 'Do as Thou Wilt' if people still follow the Bible

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." Matthew 26:26-28
This is the sort of questioning, rational and urbane human being that the Neo-Cons in America wished to quash and replace with prayer groups and money-mad M-Ds.

Look how his religiosity is. We see a man believing that his faith is so more coherent than the one of the other he feels down in the right of being arrogant and ironic. Do you see the consequence of the ("pseudo") atheism? The people become uncommunicative, arrogant and, to the I contradict than it is waited of a rational person, HE IS ALWAYS RIGHT. After all, God doesn't exist. He then, continues to have faith: "in the beginning it was it anything, the nothing exploded, and here we are us."
Neither design nor chance. Genes control camouflage, and where there is variation, the animals with better camouflage will survive and reproduce, and pass on their genes to their offspring, who will survive better, and so on. Camouflage changes through life too - often young animals in particular will have better camouflage than adults, e.g. lions, tapirs. Nature will do just enough to make a difference, no more. There are no invisible animals, no matter how much an advantage that would be.

This isn't natural selection, the insect either had this thought or was made like this. There is a species of spider that make a lasso for catching moths, this isn't natural selection.
"The insect either had this thought or was made like this" ? Like what? You sir, are either slow witted or are being obtuse. Go away and talk to somebody more on your level.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
As I thought; you are unable to answer it so you turn to insults. You are no different than a member of the Christian church turning people away who doubt the existence of God.
How it works is that it's neither just "made" and cognitive thinking also doesn't come into it - it's more a naturally evolved tendency, evolved over a helluva long time. If you read up some more on natural selection, you'll find it's because the creatures that tended to act in this manner (bear in mind they didn't just wake up one day and start acting like it!) out-survived or were more prolific than others because of such tactics, to put it basically. It's complicated, but worth the study.
The insect didn't need to think it. All it takes is one insect to mutate in some small but useful way, or for it to have an instinctual "glitch" as it were regarding how to catch prey. Those with the "glitch"survive more readily than those without it. Over a long period of time, and the breeding of those who survive more readily, the lasso becomes the evolved way to catch prey. Hence survival of the fittest. Very simplified way to explain it, but hey, I have 500 characters here
The animal never thinks about it. As I understand it, the animals who just happen to look a bit more like a twig get eaten less. Which means they are more likely to have kids who will look even more like a twig, and so on and so on.
I was smoking meth the other night before church trying reconcile my feelings about Richard Dawkins and I think I figured it out. Richard Dawkins might be the most famous atheist of our time, but he is most likely actually God himself testing us. Most people at my church agree. He thinks he's pretty tricky, but he can't fool me. I'm going to challenge him to expose himself. Maybe I can sacrifice some lesbians to the Jesus Monster.
I always admired Professor Dawkins for championing scientific ideas and rational thought against all the religious zeal and ignorance in the world.......but sometimes I forget that he's a truly great scientist with a deep understanding of nature.......just wish we had more people like him in the U.S. to do battle with Bible-thumping retards like G.W. Bush and his minions.

Science itself is based on a premise, that we need empirical proof, using reason and logic, to systematically filter out, with empirical evidence, that which is deemed unreasonable. Based on that premise I ask a simple question... What in our objective universe, have we proven exists empirically, that has not been created by some form of intelligence...tell me one thing you have in your experience, that even remotely suggests life did not come from life. Simple question!

That devil man will bring everyone to hell. Repent. Don't fall into his words. Words that make perfect sense are the words of satan himself. Reason is the devil.
Praise be to ye, Saint Dawkins, Patron Saint of Reason. For tis thy soft word, and polite unoffensive manner that shalt bring peace and logic to these troubled times.
Even as a a theist/deist but especially as someone who hopes to work in zoology and ethology one day, I must say I love the work of Richard Dawkins as both a scientist and even for his aim of helping humanity with his theological work.
I liked to see the tabby jump up and greet Dawkins, too. Cute moment.
edit after rewatching: Dawkins rather picks up the cat and the cat wanders off as they often do when you show them attention and then when theyre ready and youre busy, they come to cash in on their "attention raincheck."
Intelligent people tend to be more gentle because they understand the futility in putting on the typical pretence of behaving like a strong characatuer of masculinity, and are secure enough in themselves not to be one of those idiots. Intelligent people who are like this are often misconstrued by these primitive insecure pretentious cunts as being camp, which is attributed to homosexuality by sheer ignorance.
Thats a very good way of putting it. I am doing a PhD, and everyone seems to speak very carefully about everything from work to what they did last night. I think people dont want to be unduelly offensive or misinterpreted.
Think about it, what you said to me is 100% irrelevant and its as petty as correcting a spelling mistake. Why do people do this? It's because they're threatened by what I've said and have engaged defence mode. Side effects of this defensive attitude include irrational and nonsensical catty remarks like "your attempt at win has failed" and weak attempts to belittle to make it look as though you're somehow the intellectual superior.
You are indeed partially correct, however, I have not engaged my defensive mode, but my this-dude-is-a-lost-cause mode. There was no reason for you to comment my comment; the fact that you did shows your own...juvenile sense for what you perceive as righteousness. What you should have done is looked at it and laughed, and imagine Ian McKellen walking in on them while they were sucking each other off and then asking in that epic voice of his, "Well now, what have we here?!"
You've officially confirmed that you're clutching at very thin straws for no reason other than to feel empowered because obviously you don't have any counter-point to the ones I've already made, not one that isn't constructed purely to spite me anyway.
What sheer arrogance. Leave you alone? You chosen to post on an open forum, I chosen to respond on an open forum. If you don't like it, don't respond. Simple logic really. Give it a go.
I didn't make anything official... you did.
If you want to speak to me like an adult all of a sudden at the end of your comment there, then speak respectfully - ask again nicely.
Son, all I can say is that at least you're trying.
You're using words vulgarly, like when fools use the word "theory" instead of "hypothesis", and "people" instead of "persons". I did not make anything "official", officially or unofficially. I facepalm myself after every sentence. Do yourself a favor son: Get your dick sucked. By a girl.
Honestly? I don't care what you meant. I just want the last word, and I shall get it.
I could turn it around on you and honestly say you're one of those fools that use spelling and grammar, sexual innuendos (creepy, considering you think I'm 14) and condescending attitude to build a fallacy argument to misrepresent me, as a lazy cop out, and to make you feel better about your insecurities. And as you've officially stated, you're a weak, petty individual who desperately needs to have the last word.
It doesn't matter if you get the last word, you haven't countered my points, you've only evaded them, hiding behind ridiculous assertions. Your position is weak and you're embarrassing yourself.
There's a good chance you're projecting your own shortcomings onto me by advising me to get my dick sucked. It must be something you've missed out on for it to randomlybe inserted pointlessly into your comments to me (like everything else you've shitted out).
And by the way, you're wrong about "persons". There are a lot more than a few people who are intelligent (unless you think you're in a vast majority vs minority of intelligent people) and I'm not referring to anybody personally which would be when "persons" would be used.
So, in addition to all that, not only do you tap dance and skate around, you're also wrong about the things you nit pick at, too. Funny.
You should facepalm yourself in embarrassment, you cringemakingly stupid stuck-up cunt.
Indeed, your opening paragraph in this post betrays a sad reality about language: the ignorant change language to accomodate themselves more than do the intelligent change language by adding to it and abiding by existing rules. I do not want to take a dogmatic stance toward language, but the majority of laymen *abuse* certain words, to the point where they lose their meaning or gain an entirely new meaning on their own, mearly by the ignorant concensus of the many. This is a problem, truly.
Actually, I'm projecting the shortcomings of my cousin who projects onto me. Indeed, "get your dick sucked" isn't really something I would state normally, but I thought it would be interesting if I put the idea out there. Oh, me and my sexual innuendos...or my sexual innuendos and I.
What's interesting about the school gates part is that, ironically, I am a teacher. That's cute. You get more and more interesting with each post of yours. This is quite fun.
Could you now, turn this around on me? Explain to me what is incorrect about using correct spelling and grammar, what is incorrect about sexual innuendos that make the weak minded flinch (any fool can inspect anyone else's profile and, taking it for granted, assume what information posted is true; hence the "Stay in school, son"). As for building a fallacy argument to misrepresent you...I mean come on. Come on. I am more and more admired by your...spunk, however.
The problem with you correcting my spelling and grammar is first and foremost its irrelevancy, but secondly because the stuff youre correcting it with is language in its "legal context". Only an ass could criticise the way someone says something in everyday conversation with legal terms. Cherry picking at perfectly good English is pointless and is as good as admitting defeat in an argument.
I can tell you're not registering what I say, hence the "turn this around on me?" like you haven't noticed at all the fact I already did (I won't bother explaining why, it's clear to anyone who's not in denial). I do agree with you that you're a fool though.
You missed out the comma the first time you said it. Funny how I didn't bother to nitpick at that isn't it?
"ironically, I am a teacher"
You seem so proud! Must be why you feel the need to cherry pick at English all the time. You're the perfect example of how a job can screw up your personality over time. Saying the things you say to people is a symptom of how much your life has become the job. It's sad really.
Hurry back home from school, teacher. You must "get the last word in" with that kid on the internet during your spare time. How unhealthy does that sound?!
"This is quite fun."
Reverse psychology is making your position even weaker. A direct condtradiction of "must you prolong this". You're obviously not enjoying it, teachy.
The simpler a language is the better it is. It's not intelligent to unnecessarily overcomplicate something, teachy, it's dumb.
emuholic: you mention getting the last word in but I can't help but notice a certain fact.....it is overwhelmingly your name attached to most comments on this page. Why don't you shut your mouth and give your arse a chance?
calm down, no need to flood the same word (lawl) in anger just because you can't live with yourself for being dumber than a 14 year old. And to think you're meant to be a teacher!? Whatever has the world come to!?!?
and by the way, "Lawl" is a word used by 14 year olds. How in the fuck did someone as obviously childish as you get to be a teacher? You're either full of shit (well you are full of shit, but I mean about the teacher part specifically) or you're an insecure old cunt who hasn't yet moved on past the childish need of getting things his own way.
You know another word used by 14 year olds? "The". Amazing, no?
I have mixed feelings regarding you, son. On one had, you have the admirable quality of being extraordinarily aggressive, which has it's pros, yet at the same time, you're not...how can I put this..."relaxed".
I suppose internet anonymity allows you to act thus, because if we were ever in the same classroom together, I would humble you. Ahh well, shit happens.
"On one had"? I don't know what you mean by this. Are you sure you're not projecting your uneasyness onto me?
If we were ever in a classroom together I'm sure you would try to humble me physically, like you do other boys already (only a matter of time before you get caught by the way). Shit happens indeed, with your terrible breath and ugly face in my face... I'd knock you out to save me the bother of having to put up with that.
Arrogance and blissful ignorance gives a person certainty about themselves, but in YawnGod's case it's purely a delusional state of mind amplified by a desperate need to feel superior. It's probably why the silly man got into teaching in the first place, to become empowered by casting his control and influence over vulnerable children to continuously reassert that. Well, it doesn't work here, or on me.. the pervy little man is way out of his element.
You're the only one who as of late has been putting others down, son. "Delusional state of mind amplified by a desperate need to feel superior." Lawl. The one with the desperate need to feel superior is you. You know this. I have been trying to exalt you above other children your age, but in reality you are the same as them, with the great difference in what tools you use to look like a fool, but at least a brilliant one. There I go again, complimenting you when I shouldn't. Ahh well.
...And sometimes we're SO good at abstract thinking that we apply the principles of creativity to language and use "our" and "are" interchangeably. haha. whoops.
Cats make everything beter. I even have a theory about cats. I believe that if you were to place cats, and especially kittens, in the United Nations General Assembly hall we would have world peace in 24/h.

The insect didn't need to think it. All it takes is one insect to mutate in some small but useful way, or for it to have an instinctual "glitch" as it were regarding how to catch prey. Those with the "glitch"survive more readily than those without it. Over a long period of time, and the breeding of those who survive more readily, the lasso becomes the evolved way to catch prey. Hence survival of the fittest. Very simplified way to explain it, but hey, I have 500 characters here

The animal never thinks about it. As I understand it, the animals who just happen to look a bit more like a twig get eaten less. Which means they are more likely to have kids who will look even more like a twig, and so on and so on.

I was smoking meth the other night before church trying reconcile my feelings about Richard Dawkins and I think I figured it out. Richard Dawkins might be the most famous atheist of our time, but he is most likely actually God himself testing us. Most people at my church agree. He thinks he's pretty tricky, but he can't fool me. I'm going to challenge him to expose himself. Maybe I can sacrifice some lesbians to the Jesus Monster.

Science itself is based on a premise, that we need empirical proof, using reason and logic, to systematically filter out, with empirical evidence, that which is deemed unreasonable. Based on that premise I ask a simple question... What in our objective universe, have we proven exists empirically, that has not been created by some form of intelligence...tell me one thing you have in your experience, that even remotely suggests life did not come from life.

Intelligent people tend to be more gentle because they understand the futility in putting on the typical pretence of behaving like a strong characatuer of masculinity, and are secure enough in themselves not to be one of those idiots. Intelligent people who are like this are often misconstrued by these primitive insecure pretentious cunts as being camp, which is attributed to homosexuality by sheer ignorance.

I could turn it around on you and honestly say you're one of those fools that use spelling and grammar, sexual innuendos (creepy, considering you think I'm 14) and condescending attitude to build a fallacy argument to misrepresent me, as a lazy cop out, and to make you feel better about your insecurities. And as you've officially stated, you're a weak, petty individual who desperately needs to have the last word.
emuholic 3 years ago
It doesn't matter if you get the last word, you haven't countered my points, you've only evaded them, hiding behind ridiculous assertions. Your position is weak and you're embarrassing yourself.
There's a good chance you're projecting your own shortcomings onto me by advising me to get my dick sucked. It must be something you've missed out on for it to randomlybe inserted pointlessly into your comments to me (like everything else you've shitted out).

And by the way, you're wrong about "persons". There are a lot more than a few people who are intelligent (unless you think you're in a vast majority vs minority of intelligent people) and I'm not referring to anybody personally which would be when "persons" would be used.
So, in addition to all that, not only do you tap dance and skate around, you're also wrong about the things you nit pick at, too. Funny.
You should facepalm yourself in embarrassment, you cringemakingly stupid stuck-up cunt.

Indeed, your opening paragraph in this post betrays a sad reality about language: the ignorant change language to accomodate themselves more than do the intelligent change language by adding to it and abiding by existing rules. I do not want to take a dogmatic stance toward language, but the majority of laymen *abuse* certain words, to the point where they lose their meaning or gain an entirely new meaning on their own, mearly by the ignorant concensus of the many. This is a problem, truly.

Actually, I'm projecting the shortcomings of my cousin who projects onto me. Indeed, "get your dick sucked" isn't really something I would state normally, but I thought it would be interesting if I put the idea out there. Oh, me and my sexual innuendos...or my sexual innuendos and I.

Explain to me what is incorrect about using correct spelling and grammar, what is incorrect about sexual innuendos that make the weak minded flinch (any fool can inspect anyone else's profile and, taking it for granted, assume what information posted is true; hence the "Stay in school, son"). As for building a fallacy argument to misrepresent you...I mean come on. Come on. I am more and more admired by your...spunk, however.

The problem with you correcting my spelling and grammar is first and foremost its irrelevancy, but secondly because the stuff youre correcting it with is language in its "legal context". Only an ass could criticise the way someone says something in everyday conversation with legal terms. Cherry picking at perfectly good English is pointless and is as good as admitting defeat in an argument.

You missed out the comma the first time you said it. Funny how I didn't bother to nitpick at that isn't it?
"ironically, I am a teacher"
You seem so proud! Must be why you feel the need to cherry pick at English all the time. You're the perfect example of how a job can screw up your personality over time. Saying the things you say to people is a symptom of how much your life has become the job. It's sad really.

Hurry back home from school, teacher. You must "get the last word in" with that kid on the internet during your spare time. How unhealthy does that sound?!
"This is quite fun."
Reverse psychology is making your position even weaker. A direct condtradiction of "must you prolong this". You're obviously not enjoying it, teachy.
The simpler a language is the better it is. It's not intelligent to unnecessarily overcomplicate something, teachy, it's dumb.

Arrogance and blissful ignorance gives a person certainty about themselves, but in YawnGod's case it's purely a delusional state of mind amplified by a desperate need to feel superior. It's probably why the silly man got into teaching in the first place, to become empowered by casting his control and influence over vulnerable children to continuously reassert that. Well, it doesn't work here, or on me.. the pervy little man is way out of his element.
