Terrapin Tables

Sure, there are the questions this brings up (does God not want us to eat animals, as they don't have easy to open tabs?) but what I want to suggest is that Kirk's one line in this is just priceless.

I haven't had a chance to watch this video, yet, but Ray Comfort is a moron. I actually wrote one of the first entries on my blog about him. On Irma's birthday, we went to a flea market, where upon learning that it was her birthday, one of the vendors gave her a Ray Comfort CD as a present, "What Hollywood Believes." Being a little misled by the title, we played it, and it turned out to be a monologue by him. And it was one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. I couldn't help myself from commenting and snickering about it, so Irma got irritated and turned off the radio.

If you've got time to spare, follow the link to the video from this entry on Dispatches from the Culture Wars. It's a whole half hour of Comfort and Cameron "disproving" evolution. It's so idiotic that it's funny. Don't miss the scene where they take an orangutan out to eat at a restaurant.

It bothers me that these idiots get so much attention - like Benny Hinn. Why would any television network put that shit on? that's way more irresponsible than, say, Walker Texas Ranger, cited by Congress as the most violent television program ever. But that violence was okay, because Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad Chuck Norris never cries.

But, I'm tired of this nonsense - idiots will be idiots, and smart people will have to suffer them. And the conmen that purport to speak for them. So, from now on, I'm amending the Internet argument/Special Olympics cliche to apply to me and fundamentalists. So, I'll not argue with a fundamentalist douchebag, because it's like competing in the Special Olympics - even if I won, I'd still be retarded.
