In Monroe County, Michigan, the technology of choice is a brick. Quote A man waving a brick barged into Monroe Middle School and ranted about the teachings of evolution before being arrested by police Tuesday morning.

It's pretty obvious he was kind of disturbed." -------------- "You can't teach an old dogma new tricks." - Dorothy Parker

Clearly he thought that the idea of waving a brick was equal to studying history,biology,chemistry,physics and mathematics.

Oh and everyone, I don't buy this "intelligently designed brick" lie of the anti-evolutionists. I can personally supply anyone with a wide variety of naturally occuring intermediate forms between brick and its last common ancestor with humans, clay.* Not only that but the common household brick (Brickus brickus) is an excellent example of observable evolution and speciation, with clay turning into brick taking mere hours, a more wonderous transformation than dog to lizard, the creationist's favourite example of evolution. It also shows a gain in function and fitness (how many houses are made from clay as opposed to brick?). Habeat brickum, habeat mundi. Louis *How can the biblical literalists disagree with this? -------------- Bye.

Louis Posts: 6436 Joined: Jan. 2006 (Permalink) Posted: Oct. 30 2006,01:47    No no, you see what happened was that bricks co-evolved alongside us as part of the final clinching proof for the non existance of god. After all it's totally impossible that something so fantastically useful as a brick would evolve purely by chance. So that proves god exists, proof destroys faith, and without faith god is nothing.

Apologies to Douglas Adams. Ohhh look is that a zebra crossing? *This comes from my all time favourite Latin verb** ferro: I bring, bear or carry. It's so irregular it might as well be an English word! Ferro Ferre Tuli Latus sum, I bring, to bring, I will bring, I have brought. Ahhhhh Latin. ** I suppose I have now outed myself as someone who has a favourite Latin verb. Since it's an irregular one I suppose this also says far too much about my aberrant psychology. The only depth I could plumb that's deeper than this is to have devised my own Latin motto as a child.*** *** Semper in stercum solus profundus variat.

I was merely putting your alter ego's desires into better Latin: I came, I saw a man's dangly parts. I saw, I conquered, she came (vidi, vici, venit) is the way to go. Louis -------------- Bye.
