That’s cool. My balls are bigger than most men I know, anyway. *jk*

“Since the masses believe it, speaking out means getting ostracized (sp?).”

On the AN forum there was recently a poster who called themself “Intelligent Designer” who went there specifically to find atheists to debate the finer points of the controversy with. Aside from having his/her ass handed to them fairly quickly - that poster proved once again that those who are in support of ID know fuck-all about evolution.

I just blogged about this on my own, and I think I’ll repost it here.

Man (I mean Lady, sorry) are you right! Since the masses believe it, speaking out means getting ostracized (sp?).

I’m with vjack - what has happened to America?

“Rep. Brenda Landwehr, vice chairwoman of the House Appropriations Committee, called the e-mail “venomous,” adding, “He’s not sorry he wrote it. He’s sorry it became public.”"

He shouldn’t be sorry he wrote it, if that’s how he really believes. If the situation were reversed, and he had been a devout christian and wrote something like “The godless heathens (atheists) only want evolution taught in a science class, but this will be a nice slap in their big fat face by teaching ID as science.”, would he have had to apologize?

He has my empathy, though. Must be fuckin’ hard to be on the rational side of this battle right now in Kansas. They must get up every day thinking “What are the fundies going to attack us with today?” He probably just finally snapped.
