Hoy crap dude! His arguements there are exactly the ones here, word for word.

Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves…We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed.--Ada Louise Huxtable, "Farewell to Penn Station", New York Times editorial, 30 October 1963

I've found that the most common fundie response to me bringing up an incriminating Bible passage is "ummm, I'm not familiar with that part of the Scripture. I'll look it up and get back to you." And of course, they never come back.Ravencrow wrote:It's just like that time I asked two Jerhova witnesses how one can prove that God really exist.

Then it's not just me. I remember an E-mail salvo with one Christian bigot about the separation of Church and State and Biblical immorality. I quoted passages in their entirety for her, and she said that she'd "look into it." Strangely enough, I never heard back from her on that subject.Darth Wong wrote:I've found that the most common fundie response to me bringing up an incriminating Bible passage is "ummm, I'm not familiar with that part of the Scripture.

I can't really think of any alternative explanations. I wonder what would happen if I kept incessently badgering her about it. She'd probably resort to, "Well you're taking it out of context" or other such nonsense.Darth Wong wrote:Doesn't it make you wonder if all fundies go to some secret school where they learn the same dumb-ass tactics?
