  Re: Not distinct from drowning them in a bathtub
 
(...) What a bunch of sickos. They should be incarcerated. My 14-month-old son kicked and screamed this morning when I tried to change his diaper. Should I have beaten him with a cane? I'd hate to think that I missed an opportunity to break his (...) (19 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Not distinct from drowning them in a bathtub
 
(...) Hey Dave! They offer (URL) day care>! Funny they don't mention something like "Proud supporters of rod use." under their "Philosophy" page. They certainly sound proud enough to me in that they wrote. Adr. (19 years ago, 25-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Not distinct from drowning them in a bathtub
 
Is (URL) the worst thing you've ever read? It's the worst thing I've ever read, and I've read (URL)! Seriously, how ****sick is this monster?

  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
I'm not discussing the origin of the universe, and neither does Darwin. The Xtians trying to remove Darwin from *science* texts are mixing the 2 up, and trying to put Creationism on the same scientific level as Evolution. (...) -- Tom Stangl *(URL) (...)

  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
(...) You know, it's a really SIMPLE answer... God is omniscient and omnipotent and created the universe, along with it creating the rules that govern the universe. Science is the human study of the laws of the Universe, those inviolate laws set by (...) (19 years ago, 17-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
(...) Read the thread. (...) Perhaps you'd like to forward a "rational" explanation of the origin of the universe? JOHN (19 years ago, 17-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
(...) I said Jesus' divinity was irrational. But what is so terrible about being irrational? Is Pi bad? JOHN (19 years ago, 17-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
And what, exactly, does Darwinism have to do with the origin of the *universe*? Darwinism is the origin of the *species*. So you will help fight the irrational Christians that are trying to remove Evolution from science classes, by demanding it be (...) (19 years ago, 17-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Excellent news!
 
(...) Pretty much zealots like this guy are the reason I've stopped attending Church Proper. And that 'born again' = getting into heaven? Yeah, nice on ya... Idiots all. Dave K (19 years ago, 14-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Excellent news!
 
(...) **snip** (...) Correction. Make that "Minto ran an afternoon phone-in show in Western PA. Seems that Marty couldn't figure out when to keep his hateful mouth shut.

  Re: Bush, a flawed evil genius?
 
(...) Should that be "(URL) Gone Poland>"? I suppose now that Bush has won his 2nd term, there is no need for Poland (and others) to maintain their token presence. Scott A (19 years ago, 12-Apr-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(...) It's primarily based on what I know about time considering its relation to energy, and how time is actually unconstant.

  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
(...) Oops! Did I do that? If so, I didn't mean to--sorry! I usually try to refer to the Christian deity as capital-G "God," but I know that I've sometimes included him in the rhetorical group lower-case-g "gods." I try to use the latter reference (...)

  Re: We're being attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of culture!
 
(...) It sort of bugs me when people who are referring to God not capitalize it in an attempt to somehow disacknowledge His existence, but I digress (and demote "Science" to "science") (...)
