Scientists Find Preserved Dodo Bird Bones

nz17 writes "BBC News is reporting that a team of Dutch and Mauritian scientists have found what appears to be a mass dodo bird grave. From the article: 'Little is known about the dodo, a famous flightless bird thought to have become extinct in the 17th century. No complete skeleton has ever been found in Mauritius, and the last full set of bones was destroyed in a fire at a museum in Oxford, England, in 1755.'"

Not what I thought this was

"...Dutch and Mauritian scientists..." At first glance read that as ..."Dutch and Martian scientists..." and thought WTF? Now it has lost most of it's appeal for me...nevermind.

Enjoy your burn, unfortunately you may not believe in hell but it believes in you. Welcome to it.

Ah yes, Hell. Created by the infinitely wise, infinitely benevolent God for punishment not just for doing bad things, but for thinking bad thoughts. And in all his benevolence and insight, he gave us complete control over our thoughts, only not.

You have really made me re-evaluate my stance towards Christianity. Other than a smug, giddy exuberance over the idea of someone else's eternal suffering, you're a great human being. Obviously your faith has worked wonders within your soul. It's eerie how like the Sermon on the Mount your words are--when reading them, all I could see was love, humility, kindness. You, sir, are a Christian.
