In fact, there’s a mere quarter-century between the death of the last Founding Father (Madison, in 1836) and the invention of the first continuous rapid-fire gun (the Gatling, in 1861). It’s a 19th-century technology, like almost everything else other than the computer. But not until the late 20th and early 21st centuries did schoolboys think to use that 19th-century technology to slaughter their classmates. The Second Amendment was adopted on December 15, 1791.  The first Gatling gun was invented in 1861.  Somehow, this seventy year difference becomes only twenty five ID years. Therefore, News is in her twenties.  Also, Jesus. Perhaps it has something to do with Canada being closer to the North Pole and thus rotating more slowly.

It’s a 19th-century technology, like almost everything else other than the computer. 19th-century nylon wasn't that good, though.  And the nuclear weapons of the 1800s couldn't blow up an entire city.  Of course the TVs relieved some of the boredom, only they were non-visual. But they heard about the workings of satellites and fiber optics on their radios.  And the tanks that won the Crimean War.  Their maglev trains were fine, but they only went 45 miles per hour.  The Wright brothers happily flew off of aircraft carriers in 1873, realizing that the carriers would be nothing until planes were invented.  And they sure were happy to get rid of 19th-century fluorescent lights in favor of LED lights, along with other transistors--near the beginning of the 20th century.

Example? God could be perfectly evil and still allow good. Why? Because, being perfectly evil, it would be necessary for us to know what we were missing when the tortured us for eternity. That says the opposite is true, in really, yet explains what we experience, “evil”, just as well. This is an example of an easily varied explanation.” I don’t often agree with an atheist, but you do make a very good point here. I read Dr. Egnor’s piece and it feels more like word games used to support wishful thinking than a well thought out, logical exercise. Because we are God’s creations, we trust him with regard to what is good and what is evil. But that says nothing about the nature of God himself. Is it not possible that we perceive as being all good simply because to think otherwise scares the crap out of us? Although none of us believe that God is actually evil, is there anything that is stopping this from being fact? Being God, can’t he be anything that he wants to be? linky

Either 1) Barry truly believes neither characterization applies, so he's just blowing smoke for the hell of it; or 2) Barry believes in being counter-productive. Either way, Barry continues to be a generous source of asshattery. To paraphrase the fictional character Col. Nathan R. Jessep: We need him on that wall.
