Armed Man Takes Hostages At Discovery Channel HQ
An anonymous reader writes "The manifesto of the man holding the Discovery Channel hostage with a bomb has been released. He has fired shots and taken hostages. His main complaints are about overpopulation, religion and civilization. He wants them to avoid encouraging people to produce more 'disgusting human babies,' to get people to accept 'Malthus-Darwin science,' reject civilization and its 'disgusting religious-cultural roots,' and to stop 'ALL immigration pollution.'" The man has now been shot by police, and the hostages have been freed.
Yeah well, truth hurts.
This is why radical atheism should be considered to be a religion. Blind faith in ANYTHING can bring irrationality. Yes, not collecting stamps is not a hobby, but avoiding touching a stamp could be considered to be a hobby.
Taxation is legalized theft, no more, no less.
As a race, we may be naturally predisposed to be religious -- a very unfortunate remnant of the evolutionary process that has brought us this far. As fun as it is to mock the christians (or whoever else believes in similar fairy-tales), we should never forget that some atheists can also bastardise science and turn it into a religion. Atheists can also be religious zealots, who blindly cling onto their beliefs, who unquestionably believe in old scientific texts like Darwin, and who are prepared to use force to impose their beliefs on others... which is totally ironic. Those people are probably psychologically damaged (or very stupid, or both), because that's EXACTLY what the scientific method and critical thinking are supposed to discourage.
If only I could erase the genes that create people like him, the world would be a much happier place...
"This guy is a representation of all atheists, right? :)"
He was clearly driven insane as part of a Vatican plot to distract the media from pedo priests. :)
"This post is an artistic work of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact."
Only because of US inventions and development of new higher-yield crops. And now we're encouraging ignorance and religion over education and curiosity, so that's not gonna be a viable option this next time.
My blog. Good stuff (when I remember to update it). Read it.
Yet, were he were an "***old*** ***white*** ***male*** ***conservative*** ***Christian***" I can guarantee we'd never hear the freakin' end of it...F'n-A ditty-bag...
Little bitches like you who don't have the balls to post under their actual login.
