Have a great week everyone!

Speaking on Thursday, Pastor Paula White, head of the White House Faith Office, said, “Prayer is not a religious act. It’s a national necessity,” while Trump claimed, “People of faith have never been allowed in the White House.”

That’s all fixed now, says White. During the first 100 days of the Trump Administrat…[Read more]

We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin’
There wasn’t as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin’
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of America?

Yes, where you can learn that vegetarian TRex was walking around while Moses was having the ten commandments inscribed by the fingers of gawd.

Ah yes, good old Kentucky Ham and his lark with the ark in the park.

Nark on the ARK and literally a book of no f’g way it is possible could be written. But why waste the time on silly mythology?

Reg,

I’ve read somewhere that forty days and forty nights of rain sufficient to flood the Earth and overtake Mount Everest would have to come down at the rate and pressure of Niagara Falls every second on every square inch of Earth. An Ark made of gopher wood would be smashed to toothpicks. If somehow it could avoid that fate, the air at the…[Read more]

An Ode to The Trump Slump

Old Trump he shuffles, his head hangs low,
Another factory its workers dumped.
He used to whistle, watch the good times roll,
This time the economy has him stumped.
Within his chest, a heavy, aching dread.
The vibrant pulse of commerce as it fades.
He reads the news, the fearful words are read
About the faltering country…[Read more]

Our ape-borne, tribal, magical brains will be de-selected at some point. Until then we do have lots of suffering to administer to the “others”.

It is frustrating to those who have moments of clarity. Moment when our heritage of “killing to eat” under the leadership of an alpha ape becomes obvious. Moments when we understand why the spirits that…[Read more]

Simon,

Yeah it is human nature. It is evolution. But to consider whether Islam can be differentiated from Christianity in the way that it imparts or imbues its adherents with callousness, cruelty and utter disregard for human decency it is important to place each in historical context.

There’s a special combination of moral purity, God, and sacredness.  The religion itself has been made sacred and therefore su…[Read more]

Ya know you are right Enco. Hard core Muslim culture may indeed cause psychopathy to surface. Or any religious/secular ideology for that matter.

Sam Harris made an observation after he watched a video of Palestinians/Hamas dropping gays off buildings. Some of the executioners had a tiny bit of remorse or misgivings and carried out little…[Read more]

Jake,

As far as generalizations go, you are correct, but hasty ones are like pudding of the brain best avoided and are as valid as calling feathers in hats macaroni. 🇺🇸🥁

I was also referring to serial killers which truth be told are probably inconsequential in any population

Obviously not inconsqeuential to the victims, of course.

I have added a few more terms to the dictionary, starting with ‘Cardinal’.

Sickofancy. That is coined silver. It can be incorporated into that dictionary.
