Scouts: What I really do

I am not sure that it's the best time for it, especially with all of the controversy lately over the Boy Scouts, but here is one of the classic six-picture memes of the scouts and what they really do.

How Much Are You Worth as a Slave?

Ever wondered how much you are worth if you are ever sold as a slave? Well, Leviticus, from the Bible, is here to help.


What kind of price would you fetch at auction?

This is why the Bible is messed up.

Dear Dr. Laura Letter

I found a letter, supposedly written to Dr. Laura about comments made on her radio show, about how the Bible should be literally enforced in the modern world.

While I have no way of knowing who actually wrote the letter and if it was ever sent to Dr. Laura, the text of the letter itself is quite interesting.


Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them.

1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination, Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?

7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?

8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I'm confident you can help.

Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

Your adoring fan,

James M. Kauffman,

Ed.D. Professor Emeritus,

Dept. Of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education University of Virginia

P.S. (It would be a damn shame if we couldn't own a Canadian.)

I would also like to own a Canadian, good sir. Perhaps we can travel to Canada to purchase one together?

The Bible + Circular Reasoning = Wheel of Power!

Pop quiz:

Why is the Bible infallible?

A: Because it is the word of God.

Why is it the word of God?

A: Because the Bible says so.

Why believe the Bible?

A: Because the Bible is infallible.

And round and round the merry-go-round goes.

Night Before an Exam: What I Really Do

Here is yet another of the now famous six picture internet memes, this time about the night before an exam. The six categories are: "What my teacher thinks I do", "What my parents think I do", "What society thinks I do", "What my mates think I do", "What I think I do", and "What I actually do".

I have done all and none of those things before an exam.

You Can't Trust Science!

Watch this video from the religious community that explains why you can't trust science. Why not? Because science progresses, duh!
 


After all, science used to think that the Earth is flat. Strangely, the Bible still does.

God: Being an Asshole --One Natural Disaster at a Time

The caption says it all: God: Being an Asshole --One Natural Disaster at a Time!

Do you think that this is unfair to god? Does this hurt his or her or its feelings? Do you think that if god gets angry enough, it will stop sending floods to kill people?

Creationist Spout Opinions about Evolution -- Hilarious

Have you ever wondered why people who believe in the literal creation of the Earth by God as depicted in the Hebrew Bible get little respect from the atheist and scientific communities? Well, watch the following video and see where you think the problem lies.



It's not bad to be ignorant per se, but to be willfully ignorant really is a bad thing, especially with the availability of information via the internet.

Note: These are actors reciting messages from Christian message boards.

Graph of God's Power over Time

I think that this is the most accurate representation of God's power over time that I have ever found. Lol.

God of the Old Testament -Richard Dawkins

Here is Richard Dawkins' take on the god of the Old Testament.



I think that he's pretty much on the money with this one. Anyone who would drown all of his children except 8 is pretty much ... sick.

Thoughts on Living Forever

Level II Multiverse, Every disk is a bubble un...Image via Wikipedia
First off, if you lived an infinite amount of time, then you would have spent infinite amounts of time in some or all parts of the universe (assuming a finite size for the universe). Thus, the idea of "flying anywhere in the universe" as you put it would seem to be not that impressive if you had already spent an infinite amount of time in that part of the universe.

If you were talking about a universe of infinite size or an infinite multi-verse, then you still would have spent an infinite amount of time in some or all parts of the universe/multi-verse in many cases. The only exception that I can think of to this happening is if the sizes (i.e. Lebesgue measure) of the infinite time dimension versus the size of the infinite space dimension were different (with the size of the time dimension have a smaller Lebesgue measure) and you were constantly moving to new parts of the universe (with or without repeated visits to old parts of the universe). In this case, you would actually technically spend zero percent of your time in any one part of the universe, which I find equally disturbing.

Second, the idea of always learning new things has troubled me too. According to Physics, information is ultimately stored as a state of a subsystem or subsystems in the Physical universe and is transmitted via energy (i.e. photons). Therefore, as the amount of information stored in a given subsystem of the universe (let's say God's head) tends to increase, then shouldn't the energy density and the energy expenditure of that system also increase to a point where it's no longer physically possible to pack more energy into the subsystem? In other words, shouldn't there be an upper limit on the amount of things that you can learn, even given an infinite amount of time to learn them?

Let me put this another way. Let's suppose that we have a system composed of N particles in a quantum state defined by the variables a_1, a_2, ... a_n. According to my intuition (which may be off because we are talking about quantum mechanics here), the number of possible quantum states attainable by a particle in the ensemble should be finite. In other words, any one particle in the system should only be able to contain a finite amount of information. With that assumption in place then, as the information contained in the system increases, the number of particles in the system (the ensemble) should also ultimately have to increase as well. Therefore, since the size of the system is finite (i.e. God's head is contained in a finite space), the energy density of the system must also either a) reach a limit where there can be no more information contained in the system or b) continue to increase as more information is pushed into the system.

So, to make a long story short, if you kept trying to learn new things forever, wouldn't you either a) run out of room or b) have your head eventually explode (due to too high of energy density)?

Also note that there is demonstrably an infinite amount of information in the universe, so you can't make the argument that there is an upper limit to the amount of information.

Has anyone else ever thought about this?

50 Renowned Academics Speaking About God

Ever wonder what academics -- people of science, mathematics, and reason -- think about the idea of a god or gods? Here is your chance to find out.



The amazing thing to me is how universal their rejection of this idea is in the video. I am sure that there are academics that espouse the idea of god even late into their careers. However, I am equally certain that these intelligent people probably grew up believing in god and believe in spite of their education, not because of it.

Carrie Prejean: Woman of Many Talents




@Moderator: We here at Future Twits have an exclusive interview with Keith Olbermann and Carrie Prejean about the discovery of Carrie's sexy sex tape earlier this year.

@Moderator: Carrie, lets start out with you. You've admitted earlier this year that you made a sex tape for your boyfriend when you were a teenager. Does this seem to be keeping with the moral values that you publicly espoused during the beauty pageant?



@MissCalifornication: Um, I would answer that, but I really, really, have to go to the bathroom.

@Moderator: It's all that water you drank in the car, I guess.

@MissCalifornication: Yeah . . . something like that. I just need to . . . hey, does that laptop have a webcam?

@Moderator: Yes, I guess it does. I'm not sure why that's important though.

@MissCalifornication: Thanks! I'll be about 10 minutes.

@Moderator: Wait! My computer! Open the door!

@FatIdiot: With her gone, maybe we can talk about that tape! Have you see it? Good old "two fingered Girl Scout salute", eh?

@Moderator: First off Keith, I don't watch child porn and think anyone who does, including you if you saw the tape, is sick. Second, you're a misogynistic jerk, ESPECIALLY for your girl scout salute and all of the things that shows about what you think about women. Third, why do you care? It's a personal matter between her, God, and her boyfriend at the time. She did the same thing that probably 48 out of the other 49 contestants have done/will do, and I don't see anyone digging up their old boyfriends to look for sleaze. The only reason you or anyone else even found out about it is because she said something politically incorrect.

@FatIdiot: But, she's a HYPOCRITE. I mean, voicing her opinion about moral matters that way and then making a sex tape . . .

@Moderator: Listen, Dough Boy, everyone is a hypocrite when you come right down to it. Liberals love to throw that word around, but they are some of the biggest hypocrites of all. They talk about love and accepting people who live and think differently from you, yet when a public figure says something that they don't like, they try collectively to destroy that person. Sound like hypocrisy to me. Also, you've let so many of your own kind slide on personal morality, even after they made judgements about the personal morality of others (Letterman vs. Bristol Palin, for example), that I think you can let one of the opposition slide.

@FatIdiot: She wasn't that hot anyway.

@Moderator: Keith, let's face it, she's hotter than any girl you've ever been with that hasn't (probably) been with you because of your fame and money. You're fat, loud, obnoxious, and you always have a look on your face like you need to take a number two right this minute. Get over it.




@MissCalifornication: I'm done in there. Now, when you delete something off the hard drive on a computer, it's gone forever, isn't it?

@Moderator: Um . . . yeah, sure it is. Do you know what the recycling bin is?

@MissCalifornia: The what?

@Moderator: Yeah, just leave it on the table. I'll have Maxim . . . I mean the Geek Squad look at it to make sure everything is gone

(10,000$ here I come!!!)
