I AM entertaining... therefore I AM.

Isn't that spelled sizzle-ized? Anyway, the majority may not be right,
but since it has the loudest voice it will usually prevail. Thank God. (-8

And what do you think makes us so superior to animals? Physiologically we
are indeed animals... Just because the human brain reached some "critical
mass" and the race attained sentience doesn't automatically make us very
heavy on the intelligience scale. Quite the opposite is true, as we are
the only species that's determined to destroy itself and its environment.
If there is truly intelligient life "Out There", it ought to be scared
shitless at the prospect of the human race escaping its "Prison Earth".

(Frankly, I'm scared shitless at the prospect of John Munch procreating!)

1. the symbol 0.  2. point marked '0' in a scale.  3. nothing.
- a. of or at zero.

Yup, I'm pretty sure it was your picture right next to the definition.

Yes, you are so important aren't you? NOT!!!

Atheists like you alienate themselves. They willfully declare themselves
different and demand special consideration. In fact, that's not enough...
they want to tear down historical monuments, deface currency and force
private institutions to their will. It is NOT right but history has shown
that those who are different are ostracized and persecuted; especially
those who purposely offend the sensibilities of others and antagonize
by attempting to bring down established customs. They knowingly set
themselves against convention, then act mystified and indignant as if
*they* were the ones being sought out.

I am NOT a theist and have NO CHURCH, yet I wouldn't be so intolerant
and disrespectful of another's sacred beliefs. You presume to foist your
concept of "seperation of church and state" on everyone because you have
convinced yourself that only *your* interpretation of the Constitution
the United States is correct. It's so obvious to you, isn't it? "Knowing"
you are right, you feel justified in  pursuing whatever means necessary
to stamp out the "evil religion". Sounds like a goddamn crusade to me...
