I suspect that since nobody would sit with him in the school cafeteria, he's compensating by "encouraging" his employees to live out his fantasy of being included at lunch with him.
Or it will be eventually filed under "unintended consequences" if it does pass and as a result ALL belief systems (even those the creationist/christians don't like) get to expound on their theories on how the universe came to be.
I'd say that the Greek origin myth is a hell of a lot more plausible than Genesis. According to some Greek myths, existence originated out of chaos.
What ever happened to "hey - here's two pairs of boxing gloves - go behind the gym and work it out?"
That stopped being feasible when guys like me got tired of taking shit from other kids, and showed up behind the gym with brass knuckles. The answer to verbal bullies is to punch them in the throat.
...where The Real Housewives of xyz and River Dance end up on the 'Fringe Interests' list, because there's no way in Hell people would admit to either of those of a first date.
I once had a first date with a woman who admitted that she believed that David Koresh was the Second Coming. People will admit all kinds of weird shit on a first date. Of course, after hearing that I called for the check, paid up, and walked out.
Assholes like Scalia and Thomas like to take the Bible literally and the Constitution metaphorically, when they should be taking the Constitution literally and ignoring the Bible.
It covers unenumerated rights and states that "the enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." Don't feel bad, though. Those SCOTUS assholes you mention are also fond of forgetting the Ninth.
But whose sin was greater here? The journal that got fooled, or the guy who did the fooling? This was a major exercise in academic dishonesty, and Sokal should have suffered the consequences. But in fact, everyone was having so much fun punching the hippies at the journal that he got a pass.
I see nothing wrong with what Sokal did; it's the equivalent of standing up and shouting, "The emperor is naked, and he has a small dick!"
IANAL, but if you want to use Tolkien in historical fiction, why not write it in the US, call it a parody, and hide behind the First Amendment? It worked for 2 Live Crew when they covered "Pretty Woman" as "Hairy Woman".
Nintendo knows a thing or three about the gaming industry, including that they remember the great video game crash of '84, and more importantly what caused it.
Then why do they keep slapping their seal of approval on blatant shovelware? Oh, that's right: it makes them money.
Corporations that depend on a 20th century business model that assumes that information requires physical media and is therefore scare are still unprepared to deal with the internet.
Cynicism does not make things better. We all on the titanic, and its going to take a group effort to steer us away from the iceberg.
You have to deal with the captain and crew, and they're either clueless or drinking on the job. Good luck with that; I'll be bobbing along in your wake because I saw the iceberg coming and had the good sense to grab a lifeboat and abandon ship.

He can probably read faster than you can talk.
agreed, I think if I had work with that on a daily basis I would seriously consider a lawsuit.
I'd consider the use of high explosives.

Where did you learn about justice?
I learned that there's no such thing as justice when being bullied as a kid. So I solved the problem by being more vicious than everybody around me.
What does a child do when he is body checked into a locker? Tripped in the cafeteria? Towel snapped in the locker room?
Don't fight. Ambush them and beat them into the ground.
kids are going to continue to fall through the cracks.
Why should we save them when they stand for nothing? If they deserve life, let them stand for themselves.
Grab a sword and do it yourself.
as or self-image is entirely informed by the way others act towards us.
Speak for yourself.

I only went out with that woman as a favor to a friend.

I think it's way cool. If your bullshit detector is broken, or if you don't have one, then you fucking deserve to get owned, and owned hard.
There's probably big money to be made by enforcing Prohibition.

...just mention jury nullification. Prosecutors hate that shit.
So you'd throw out Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon and his Baroque Cycle?

Neither is Lauer. Neither is most everyone in the media. Journalism: for those who are too unskilled to do anything else.
Journalists are still a little more useful than American public school teachers.
Corporations that depend on a 20th century business model that assumes that information requires physical media and is therefore scare are still unprepared to deal with the internet.
