You misunderstand my point. The dude is carping that great-grandparent is posting bad numbers (agreed) and that this is reflective of a pervasive bias on/.
But the dude is languishing at +2, while all the highly modded comments are totally reasonable. So right now, the story that/. is telling is COMPLETELY FINE. His carp is full of shit.
I loved Orson Scott Card's writing when I was 12. By the time I was 15, I was a little less into it, and discovered that he is a Mormon and shoehorns his idiotic little belief structure into his novels. At some point he said something like "This story is an allegory about self destructive people like drug addicts and homosexuals."
I thought... wait... wasn't a homosexual a totally essential character in the "Call of Earth" series? Oh. Yeah. He was a hero because he decided to do the right thing and have sex with women.
Orson Scott Card is a sick little fuck. I realize that my new knowledge of the author is obviously coloring my opinion of his writing, but it all turned to ashes in my mouth. As far as I can tell, his writing is complete crap.
There will never be peace between people who have been warring for thousands of years.
That's factually incorrect. The Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived together relatively peacefully for several hundred years in Jerusalem under the Ottoman empire. Up right until WWI.
Idiots like you believe bullshit like that because idiots like you keep fucking repeating it. Shut up.
Says you. Other people say that agnostic means you believe in a God but do claim to know anything about Him.
I say that I am without a belief in God, and thus a-theist. Most other atheists have the same lack of belief that I do. So when you say atheists believe in the religion of no God, you are full of shit.
Since HP also sells self-branded iPods, it would be great if they'd make such a box iPod friendly.
I thought they sold Apple branded iPods. It's through HP's channel. I guess it is listed on PCConnection as the "HP iPod", but it's still got a big apple sandblasted onto the back. They never made that HP-blue iPod all the rumor sites were blathering about.
After being taken to an FBI office and given a lie-detector test, Banach said he had hit the jet with the beam, court documents say.
Ok, weird. I would like way, way more information than was provided in this sentence.
During questioning by the FBI, Banach showed an agent his laser. After the agent switched it on, Banach warned him "not to shine the laser in his eyes because it could blind him," the court documents say.
The theory of intelligent design is considered, by its proponents, to be proof that God exists. Believing in God & science usually means that you don't buy ID.

And now it's not. But it's definitely not the official opinion of /., and it's definitely not the most popular opinion in this discussion.

Whatever. You need to browse at a higher threshold. The +3 comments are all totally reasonable.
Uh, I don't think that last AC was one of the jackasses. Yes, that response was fine.

I've never had one of these jackasses actually respond to my flying elephants point. Dunno if that's 'cause they give up or if they can't be bothered.

Are you an atheist or an agnostic when it comes to the belief in flying purple elephants?
You're just agnostic.
Says you. Other people say that agnostic means you believe in a God but do claim to know anything about Him.

So you have a choice, believe me to be a lunatic who hears voices, or maybe I'm right.
Wait. Your nick is "complete loony", but you would like me to choose between your insanity and your veracity? Ok, I'm lost.
They believe in the religion of no God.
I hold no belief in the religion of no God.
I hold no faith in God, either.
Neither can prove their belief.
What belief? (You are full of shit.)
Rule 1. Spammers lie.
Rule 2. If spammer seems to be telling the truth, see Rule 1.
Rule 3. Spammers are stupid.

Slightly more challenging to make sure everyone hears the question at the same time.

Good idea.
AAAGH MY BRAIN IS MELTING.
That was the first generation with QuartzGL.
So I'll even trade you. My iBook sucks, not Office. I should point that out up front.
And tie your damn brain in a knot. Ouch.
Thanks a lot.
