No Storm Mothra was actually evil, Godizilla killed Mothra and saved what was left of Tokyo.

I hope that swine Phelps goes to prison for tax evasion or something I have a feeling some fellow prisoner would give him his 'just rewards'.






That's a goddamned lie! Mothra was the good guy in that story. Mothra, gravely injured by the evil Godzilla, hatched her egg so that her two larvae could encase Godzilla in silk and send him/her to the bottom of a lake. Mothra was more than happy to live in peace on Monster Island with the little bitty chicks.

I think you have Mothra confused with the Smog Monster.

Not entirely so. It depends on which Godzilla movie you watch. Just like it depends on which book of the bible you read when you're describing the nature of God.

Underlying the evolutionary theory is not just the classic "stuff" of science — conclusions arrived at through prolonged observation and experimentation. Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. II Timothy 4:3,4

II Thess. 2:11 And for this cause God shall
send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

You can not see the 'wind', but you can see its effect!!!!

Evolution was caused by genetic mistakes at each stage?

Radical Evolution has 500 million years to find fossils of fictional drawings of (hard core)missing links, yet they find none.

We have not seen such moral darkness since the dark ages, coencides with
teaching evolution in schools. (Moral darkness)

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places, EPH 6:12.

"Thus, many scientists embracing naturalism find themselves in the seeming dilemma recently articulated by biochemist Franklin Harold: "We should reject, as a matter of principle, the substitution of intelligent design for the dialogue of chance and necessity [i.e., Darwinian evolution]; but we must concede that there are presently no detailed Darwinian accounts of the evolution of any biochemical system, only a variety of wishful speculations."

Yeah. But wouldn't you just love to be in the bleachers when the likes of Phelphs, Randall Terry, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, and other sanctimonious mendicants are trying to explain themselves?

I surely would. It's enough to make one wish it were true....

Okay, verlch, just so I'm sure I understand you correctly, please clarify. You do not deny God hates these people, you simply justify His hatred by saying He has laws and rules?

Did I get it right?

A universe where the phrase "god hates" could be true is about the worst thing you could hope for, even if you're his biggest supporter. Certainly Mr. Perfect who created the whole thing and every imperfect creature in it could find something to hate about every one of us, no matter how you might claim to be following his will. If there is a god that can hate, especially for just being who and what he made us, we're all screwed, even (or especially) the self proclaimed pious. Apparently the good Rev Phelps doesn't spend much time pondering before blathering.

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

What scalds my chitterlings is that people who think that some being, one so powerful as to have created an entire universe on a whim, actually might care about the activities of a far less than significant mote within that universe, however noisey and obnoxious that mote might be. The sheer arrogance is astounding.

I think that God, if such should exist, does not note the falling of a sparrow nor the sinking of a whale. Nor does he hear the preachings, prayers or rantings of the likes of those who claim knowledge of divine thought.

He never saw those ridiculous souls groveling before Roy's Rock, and that's too bad. He might have gotten a laugh out of it.

I fear that none of us will get a seat in the bleachers when Freddy Phelps comes before The Judgment because there will be no judgment.

Yes, Just as a parent would ask their child not to engage in said behavior. When the do there will be a decree that was broken by the child. Just as God, in His bible, asks us not to engage in certain sinful behavior. Thank goodness for Jesus, God cannot stand the sight of evil. Jesus is standing in the way of the wrath of the Father and asking for more time that all might be saved.

Verlch, you seldom fail to astound me.

Naw Doc, I'd not want him hit. He still has a little value beyond the amusing. The more he rants, the more the general public realizes just how fucked up and pathetic this scaberous sack of faeces is.

I have a better idea. Let's all of us, male and female, send him passionate love letters, followed in a week or so by 'Dear Johns.' Make him even crazier.

Except when a parent makes a mistake, our law does not kill their children as punishment, much like God did with the 10th plague.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.
