Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

You must mean Santayana. While I like Santana's music, he said no such thing.

Dear God, they've got it so messed up it hurts me. Hitler's mother a Jew? WTF?! Where the hell do they get that shit from?
I know all about Jewish culture, and I know about their features (My boyfriend and his family is Jewish... my boyfriend just converted about a month or so ago to Christianity, I'm so proud :)!)
His mother, infact, was Jewish. I know this for a fact, and I have been to every possible website on the holocaust, and, as it turns out, my boyfriend is related to Hitler.
That's just really sad...stupid kids

Hitler's grandfather may possibly have been Jewish. The thing is there is no strong evidence to support it.

As for his mother, she was Catholic.

I have no idea where they could have possibly gotten that from (I certainly have not heard anything remotely like that), but I believe Hitler's father was half-Jewish.

I can claim relation to Rasputin, by virtue of my great-grandfather being his nephew (actually, I'm not completely certain of the exact relation, but given that they both came from the same small and isolated village, inbreeding makes some kind of relation a certainty).

I've heard lots of things like that, but I believe they're pretty much all untrue. I read Ian Kershaw's book (Hitler: 1889-1936 Hubris) on Hitler quite awhile ago, but I'm pretty sure he pretty much laid the theories on whether Hitler had any Jewish ancestry to rest.

Wasn't Rasputin the one who people paid to fuck because he said that to be cleansed of sins by God you needed to commit them first? (or something like that)

Isn't it funny that this entire post would've described those boards perfectly if they just removed "(hitler)" and replaced it with "(Biblical God)"


Oh the irony...

I am completely shocked that they actually let this post go through:
I have no all powerful sky pixie on which to appeal to. I don't simply shrug everything off onto him. It means that I form my own moral guidelines to follow, based on MY experiences, and what I believe to be right, not what some 2000 year old book tells me.
The guy calls God a sky pixie. He says he forms his own moral guidelines and says he doesn't follow the bible. And they actually ok'ed the post?! I am shocked. Their thought police are getting sloppy if they miss this...

some chap over there on a thread about the Dinosaurs and the Bible wrote: Actually, I think the people before the flood created them. Those people were pretty close to Adam and Eve. In fact, out of the ten patriarchs in Genesis before the flood, only Noah didn't see Adam. So since those people were still pretty close to the perfect form of humans, they were much smarter and probably figured out how to cross mate different types of animals. Nowadays, the average person uses about 5% of their brain power in their entire lifetime. Geniuses such as Einstein and others used about 10% of their brains. So if the people before the flood were closer to Adam and Eve, they probably used around 85% of their brains. So they had the knowledge to cross the different types of animals. And dinosaurs are what came about. But since God hadn't created them, He didn't save them in the ark. Thats how they disappeared.
Aside from the ROFL brain power thing, and the fact that we've been crossing animals for thousands of years, this acknowledges that new species can result from cross breeding, hence acknowledging that God did not create all new species and that the theory of evolution is a constant and ever present thing...

I'm Inindo. Will be posting soon.
I am capable of rearranging the fundamental building blocks of the universe in under six seconds. I shelve physics texts under "Fiction" in my personal library! I am grasping the reigns of the universe's carriage, and every morning get up and shout "Giddy up, boy!" You may never grasp the complexities of what I do, but at least have the courtesy to feign something other than slack-jawed oblivion in my presence. I, sir, am a wizard, and I break more natural laws before breakfast than of which you are even aware!

*sigh* and of course, we have the usual bigoted belief that homosexuality is a sin... that combined with a staggering amount of crap about it as well, occassionally, you have to feel sorry for Satan, some of these people say everything is his fault. In one thread they can be saying that God gave us free will so we could make wrong decisions and understand the reasons behind them etc, and in another they can say that we do bad things because Satan has possessed our souls...

One of them even states that Homosexuality is a sin, because it depresses the people who do it and hurts their families. Now, I'm not gay, but time and time again, my parents have told me that if I was, then nothing would change, and as long as I was happy, then they would be proud of me.

And last time I checked, the board's gay community didnt appear to be going round threatening suicide. Which is more than can be said for some of the people on that board...

Arghh... I'm not sure how much more of that board I can take, it's like a car crash with Eddie Izzard doing stand up next to it. Another post on evolution, the person quotes an article from new scientist, clearly above his reading and comprehension as he then goes on to say that atoms should fall apart because they have a positive and negative atom in them, and these should repel.

This, in a thread where he's quoting on Potassium Argon dating with regard to teprochronology and dating igneous rock, which requires a basic understanding of particle physics, which he clearly lacks.

Arghhh... again. Part of me wants to go over there and point out that he's posting with understanding, but the rest of me says 'no, don't go there, leave them to their stupidity..."

EDIT: mind you, if someones going that way, that thread is under Do something forum, marked as evolution. Please, somebody ask him to explain it or admit that he doesnt know what he's talking about... and if someone could also give him the basics on the intermolecular forces, then please do it, I dont think I could explain it very well.

Bah, I gave up, signed up, and have tried to dispel some of the idiocy surrounding evolution from my basic knowledge of it. We'll see if it gets let through, I was very polite about it...
