Asked for geek crowds help
Built campaign 'round rejects
Too much winter crack

Thought hippies would show
Other candidates asshats
Geeks too dumb to vote

Blew up at Iowa
Went all fucking balllistic
Sane abandoned psycho

Flowers rising up
The dirty hippies screwed him
Hopes completely crushed

Black Jesus?

[Anonymous Coward]

Was Jesus a NIGGER?


"Many people are surprised to discover that Christ was a black man, but when one looks at Christ's lineage one discovers that He has numerous Hamatic Ancestors, with Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Naomi, Bathsheba and Jezabel being the most notable."

Here are the facts:

• In ancient times, including Jesus' time, the Arabian peninsula was considered part of what we now call Africa, not "the Near East" or "the Middle East".
• Christianity is frequently portrayed as "the White Man's religion". The truth is that most of the people in the Bible were people of color (i.e., not "Anglo"): Semitics, blacks, and Mediterranean, e.g., Romans.
• In the United States today the general view on whether someone is "black" is the One-Drop Rule -- if a person has any black ancestors s/he is considered "black", even with a clearly Anglo skin color, e.g., Mariah Carry, Vanessa L. Williams, LaToya Jackson.
• Jesus' male ancestors trace a line from Shem. However, ethnically and racially, they were mixed Semitic and Hamitic from the times spent in captivity in Egypt and Babylon. Rahab and probably Tamar were Canaanites. Although Canaanites spoke a Semitic language, they were descendants of Ham through his son Canaan. Bethsheba, who had been the wife of Uriah the Hittite, probably was a Hamitic (black) Hittite herself.

Why was Jesus a black?

He called everyone "brother"

He always seemed to have troubles with the law

GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS ARE A SHAM

[Anonymous Coward]

The Hollywood foreign press association is an organization of movie fans who claim to be reporters. They get long interviews with movie stars that real reporters would die for and ask absolutely stupid questions. One once asked Tom Cruise what character he was playing in Minority Report;a lot of research went into that question. Anyway the studios buy these Golden Globe awards by giving these "reporters" gifts and access to the stars. It's a big promotional thing and was not even aired on TV until recently. Odd that this sham usually leads to getting an Academy Award nomination!

Re:Where's McGiver?

Angus MacGyver rules, man! Then again, he's not much for technology -- he's actually rather low-tech when it comes to that stuff. Bond had gadgets while MacGyver had paperclips at its simplest, and "readily available household chemicals" at best.

The Mac had a "do what you can with what you have" mentality which is still a good philosophy (especially for those folks who run Linux because XP's system requirements are too high for the hardware they still have).

Re:So how do you award folk

If you're gonna be cute and link to a big ass file... you could at least attempt to hide the fact that it is a friggin' ISO...

For you, I should have linked to a sense of humor. Because my post was a joke!
