I respect what you have to say the majority of the time, as you have studied your points and you back up what you say with well thought out arguments. But I have to call you on this. You said yourself earlier that religiosos are the ones flying planes into buildings and forcing their beliefs on others through government legislation, and that is a bad thing, I agree. But that is also the product of religious intolerance. So if those things are bad, and we can all agree they are, how can intolerance be the answer? Saying something like that makes you no better than those you so fervently

/\ insanely funny, equally scary. Its amazing that they took like 50% of Palin's dialogue from the actual interview, and it holds up as a comedy sketch. Scary.

Man, I gotta spend some time this week getting them songs down. Good thing I got fired, now I've got lots of free time!

don't look back... you can never look back...

I'm saying that automatically dismissing someone's beliefs is ignorant and intolerant, and atheists do it just as much as religious folks do. That's all I said. I did not use the word "militant." Especially in the case of someone like Bill Maher, who's show I've been watching recently, he will talk down the hyper-religious folks but will be just as intolerant himself. That's all I'm saying. And that kind of behavior will not change anyone's mind. There needs to be understanding and we need to see what is common between us as humans, not take hardcore stances against one another. That's

Agreed. Intolerance goes both ways, its not just a hardcore Christian thing. Hardcore atheists are just as ignorant and intolerant.

I want Palin to get shredded next Thursday. I feel like such a partisan fuck head saying that, but she enrages me. The worst part is: she's just a god damn tool, a ploy, and she seems so comfortable with being used. But I don't feel sorry for her.

Yeah, I laughed so hard when the announcer said that, I almost fell off my couch.

Man, I'm listening to Ralph Nader speak on Bill Maher's show, and it pains me that this man gets shut out by the political money making machine. Shame.

I think its hilarious that Palin declined to comment post-debate so they got Rudy Guliani instead. I lol'ed.

That's okay, all epileptics are liberals anyway. They need to pick themselves up by the bootstraps, start being mavericks.

It's a Muslim thing.

Shit's heating up. They should just have a shoot-out, Old West Style.

Fucking McCain called himself a maverick. I was with him up to that point. What a douche.

Agreed. I'm not actually pissed off, like I was sure I would be.

Thanks for links (I think). I'll report back on any cross burnings or anti-gay rallies .

Does anyone know of anywhere on the web to get the Republican take on things? The only reason I ask is because I know where to find opinions that pretty much line up with my own and I've gotten a steady diet of it, so I'd like to know what these other people are thinking.

/\ just got a copy of that yesterday.

Bought this last week, haven't dug into it yet but I know I'm gonna love it.
