I'm only on page 80 of this thread, and I want to absorbe everything before joining in the fun. But there are one or two things I have to say: Creationist websites are definitely a proof that an intellignet designer doesn't exist. I mean, really, honnestly...MY EYES MY EYES!!! And, Making Money is probably one of the finest, wittiest works in the Discworld series so far. And Pucci DOES sound a bit like Ftk.

I'm still on page 102 of this thread, which means I have already lost a few braincells coping with FTK's blabbering, but most of all I've got enraged at what happened for a few pages, starting page 92 (you know, that homosexuality stuff). I'm not gay, yet my sister is (yep, very), and as Sgt Jackrum used to say: "Upon my oath I am not a violent man", but I wouldn't mind a-kicking a particular, "designed" bollock right now! So I tried to rationalize, keep a cool head. Then, IT struck me hard..."For The Kids"! Damn! For The Friggin Kids!!! I'm ok with Creatards running loose, since any (mildly) educated person should know better than to swallow their bullcrap. But...For The Kids??? Correct me if I'm wrong: what we have here is your typical crationist/bible literalist/hollier-than-thou nutsy. Ok, fine. But now she dares pretending it's for the kiddies? To help them fulfill a better life in the all loving embrace of Jebus? And from that stratpoint, deciding that everyone must follow her point-of-view/opinion? Don't get me wrong, I got the sick deep meaning before, but only now did it just strike me as one of the things I loath the most in today's society. And here is my final point, probably a matter for banning from Wes or Steve or anyone, and I will understand if it is so, but I have to say it: FTK: Get some help. Seriously! I wouldn't want to be you when your kids are finaly confronted with the World Of Everyday. It's a 50/50 bet. Maybe they will continue to follow your indoctrination, but if they really are critical as you say they should be, they will loath you. They will hate you for the liar that you are, and they will laugh at your biggotery. Think about their future. Stop the bullshit! Sorry to everyone if this is offensive, especialy since I got heated up by an almost 2 years old message, but it had to get out! -------------- "Hail is made out of water?

I'm sure we banned one or two people in 2008 but it's been too long for me to remember the details.
