you have to be a lunatic to put fission on the moon. it seems once a month i encounter some sort of hairbraned scheme like this. i wish there were a silver bullet solution to these sort of moonbat ideas
is someone who willfully kills civilians in order to further an ideological agenda
its a valid definition
and furthermore, if the usa disappeared tomorrow, if the usa never even existed, there would still be "freedom fighters" in foreign lands killing civilians. because what terrorists are interested in is religious bigotry: restore the caliphate and exterminate nonbelievers. which is pretty much the opposite of what a "freedom" fighter does
what gays and lesbians want is the right to be gays in lesbians. what gays and lesbians do in the privacy of their own homes in no way affects you whatsoever
meanwhile, to deny what gays and lesbians want, that is, to be themselves, is "cramming down their throats", as you so homoerotically describe, the beliefs of fundamentalist christianity
in other words, to give gays and lesbians what they want doesn't negatively affect your rights and freedoms whatsoever
meanwhile, to give fundamentalist christians what they want dramatically infringes on the rights and freedoms of gays and lesbians
so you are angry that gays and lesbians do not tolerate your intolerance?
fine
but the idea is more rights and freedoms for everyone... except the right and freedom to deny someone else their rights and freedoms. understand that discrepancy?
what you want is intolerant. so to deny you is not intolerance of you. because intolerance of intolerance is not intolerance. in fact, intolerance of intolerance is pretty much a good definition of tolerance
what gays and lesbians want does not hurt fundamentalist christianity at all: you are 100% free in a world of gay and lesbian rights to continue being an asshole
but the problem with creationists, and 9/11 truthers, is that they industriously involve themselves in political process. the creationists are actually making progress in the hinterlands. the effect is that some poor children's education suffers for their idiocy
same with the 9/11 truthers: you can't just leave them alone. you leave them alone, and the next thing you know, there is a vote being made in the pennsylvania senate asking for a $100 million state investigation into the "real" reason the fourth airplane crashed in pennsylvania. more press coverage, more trolling, more idiocy
it would be nice to let silly people be silly people by themselves. and for most classes of silly people, you are right, you can do that. but for classes of silly people who actively seek to have their silliness crammed down the throats of others, we must actively push back against that
raw pattern recognition: an establishment of a relationship between two different contemporaneous things
that's what we excel at as human beings
so really, its pattern recognition that helps us survive. superstition is merely the extreme of pattern recognition
superstition often has a "reason" as to why there is a relationship between one thing and another, and the reasons are oftentimes nothing more than the magical realism a toddler could come up with
it can be ridiculous, but again, its about what helps you survive, not about being right or wrong. sometimes there is a roundabout relationship between two things that has a genuine reason
so yes, superstition is valid oftentimes, valid in that it establishes a connection. the reasons it comes up for the connections are usually preposterous, but the establishing of that connection often isn't
scientology is not interested in your rights and freedoms. scientology is intent on enslaving gullible fools. opposing scientology is about protecting rights and freedoms
read this, get a primer on why you should oppose this fungus:
a system of overt financial enslavement is a valid religion in your mind?
why must the definition of a free society include tolerance of institutions hellbent on purposefully destroying rights and freedoms?
if a con man duped you into writing him a check, do you have to tolerate that crime in the name of free expression?
then why don't you see that is all scientology is and that you must stand against it in the name of your cherishing of human rights and freedoms and dignities?
especially since there is a goddamn icelander who looks the part, singing wacky tunes since the 1980s
and especially since mongol stock has populated every other far northern reach... except iceland? really?
explain bjork. explain that her parents were refugees from greenland. explain her appearance on iceland. otherwise, i have to trust my eyes more than your words, and conclude you don't know what you are talking about, or you are in some sort of weird racist denial, that its really important to you iceland is 100% scandinavian for some weird reason, in spite of obvious evidence to the contrary
mongol stock occupies iceland the same way it did every other area in the far north
there is no reason why they cannot do this. it is their website, their policy. of course they will piss some people off, of course they went ahead with this filter fully aware it would bother some people
on the flip side, you are not a zombie craven to facebook. it is entirely in your power to use some other service. facebook is not the end all be all.
there was geocities, tripod, xanga, friendster, myspace, and now facebook. it is time for you to simply discover the next social networking app in a long line of apps that come and go every couple of years
it is not because asiatic traits evolved independently on iceland. it is because the sami, the inuit, the chukchi, and all other mongol peoples circling the arctic sea got there via pack ice or boats
and then you lose your point when you get to the scenario where they are in the canoe, looking for some place to go. at that point, they are not going to head somewhere randomly. they are going to make informed predictions based on fish, birds, clouds, the geography of island archipelagos, etc
explain the existence of the genes of bjork in iceland
is she an alien?
(maybe she actually is an alien, she's quite insane regardless)
you said something about her being asian versus mongol... that's incoherent. i'm talking about northeast asian genetics extending around the top of the northern hemisphere. bjork is an example of that. the sami are an example of that. disprove my point, or back down
northeast asian traits extend all the way around the top of the northern hemisphere. all over the top of your blonde haired blue eyed scandinavia are black haired brown eyed narrow lidded people of mongol stock
and again, there is bjork
please explain the appearance of someone like bjork, in your land of blonde hair and blue eyed scandinavian people

is this the eclipse article?
the article at which your average slashdot opinion finds the bulk of google's behavior to be more reprehensible than the bulk of microsoft's?
or do we need a few more months and stories like this before that threshold is reached and google becomes enemy number one?

no inuit or sami made it to iceland
that's amazing
especially since there is a goddamn icelander who looks the part, singing wacky tunes since the 1980s
and especially since mongol stock has populated every other far northern reach... except iceland? really?
explain bjork. explain that her parents were refugees from greenland. explain her appearance on iceland. otherwise, i have to trust my eyes more than your words, and conclude you don't know what you are talking about, or you are in some sort of weird racist denial, that its really important to you iceland is 100% scandinavian for some weird reason, in spite of obvious evidence to the contrary
mongol stock occupies iceland the same way it did every other area in the far north
that seems most plausible and probable to me
the very existence of bjork makes it so
which is still around
it was 2000, a guy told me about it at work, and i was instantly hooked, simply because the search results were better than anything else i had tried
1. northeast asian traits evolved independently on iceland
2. the same people: the sami in scandinavia, the chukchi in siberia, the inuit in canada, are just a quick pack ice trip away
which is more plausible to you?
scratch that question: which scenario is astronomical orders of magnitude more probable to you?
northeast asian traits evolved independently on iceland
thats far more plausible to you
even though the same people, the sami in scandinavia, the chukchi in siberia, the inuit in canada, are just a quick pack ice trip away
its amazing the things i learn from genuises on teh intarwebs
(snicker)
thanks

why does bjork from iceland look like bjork from iceland
i await my sublime enlightenment
and then you lose your point when you get to the scenario where they are in the canoe, looking for some place to go. at that point, they are not going to head somewhere randomly. they are going to make informed predictions based on fish, birds, clouds, the geography of island archipelagos, etc
then stfu
you lose
you're simply arguing for the sake of argument, you don't have anything substantative to say anymore
g'day
xoxoxox
1. that there were no eskimos in iceland before the europeans arrived
2. that eskimos aren't related to south americans
3. that the sami people in northern scandinavia are aliens from mars
so what were you saying about being an educated bigot again?
there's bjork. icelandic native. explain her heritage or back down
explain the existence of the genes of bjork in iceland
is she an alien?
(maybe she actually is an alien, she's quite insane regardless)
you said something about her being asian versus mongol... that's incoherent. i'm talking about northeast asian genetics extending around the top of the northern hemisphere. bjork is an example of that. the sami are an example of that. disprove my point, or back down
they want their web agents back
same old shit, repackaged with new terms
i wonder what the next buzzword will be used to describe client-server architecture anew?
ever hear of the sami people?
northeast asian traits extend all the way around the top of the northern hemisphere. all over the top of your blonde haired blue eyed scandinavia are black haired brown eyed narrow lidded people of mongol stock
and again, there is bjork
please explain the appearance of someone like bjork, in your land of blonde hair and blue eyed scandinavian people
thanks
