    Emily,
    Not to interject too much in the discussion but their are valid interpretations of "God creating man" which do not require the rejection of the theory of evolution. As a comparison phrasing did the person who put the ingredients together and put them in the oven "make" the cake or did the corporation who made the cake mix "make" it. Both can be valid interpretations of "making" the cake without requiring rejection of the contribution of the other in the end result.

    I'll buy that, Monty. It's the litearalism of a 2500 year old book that annoys me (Oral tradition about a thousand years older). Believe in God all you want, but if someone tries to grab me by the britches and shove me headlong into the seventeenth century, forget it.

    There's little doubt that the Bible, in its various and often conflicting iterations, could not pass one-fiftieth of the type of scrutiny and verification that creationists insist happen in science education.

    Actually the first settlement was in Virginia, and Everyone in the south isnt a red neck. I live in a very beautiful progressive town. Also if you hate the south stop fucking moving here asswipes. One more thing, as a cartoon in a deli i worked at once printed "We dont care how you do it in New York.

    For what it's worth, I've never lived in the South, but have travelled a fair amount in the South, and have known a fair number of southerners.

    In my limited experience, the openminded southerners I've met (most of them) had confronted difficult issues of bigotry we all carry and had dealt with these feelings directly.

    Those of us from supposedly far less bigoted communities should be so wise to take a look at ourselves as critically.

    After all, isn't the statement "f the south" pure bigotry?

    Funny how athiests and agnostics will bitch about Christians trying to force their views onto others and then they spend the next 2 hours doing the exact same thing but in an even nastier and cynical way.

    The splinter and the log.

    Maybe those of you who are still wounded and lost feel better by venting, trying to gain validation of your rationale for abandoning God. Maybe some of you just read "The Vampire Lestat" too many times. Whatever the case may be, why be so bitter?

    Believe what you want. I'm not trying to convert any of you, and you can't convert me. So let's move on

    I don't care what you believe, and I don't even care what Bush believes, but when he is voted back into office largely because he takes a moral highground, then it concerns me.

    It's not GOD i have issue with. It's literalism. Insisting that the bible is 100% literally accurate (Or even 80% literally accurate) means accepting that Rabbits chew cud even though they don't. Somewhere in some of these stories from the old testament is a nugget of truth (I have no doubt that there was a real person on whom the legends about King David are based, for instance), but all the magic and spooks and smiting from the heavens i just don't buy. Insist that these stories are true all you want, but you might as well insist that Perseus actually killed Medusa.

    And i really kind of dislike Ann Rice's work. Servant of the Bones was okay, but most of the Vampire chronicles shits the bed.

    I would like to see the children of this glorious land of Liberty properly given a chance to exercise their right to follow religious practices in school, by sacrificing oxen and examining the entrails. Their parents might not let them do so enough in the 18 hours remaining to them...

    Scanned the thread (admittedly briefly) and i didn't see that anywhere. In fact i haven't seen much southerner bashing at all (I certainly never offered any, my contributions to this thread have been picking apart faery tales), the thread started as a link to a totally different website.

    Even if i disliked southerners, i couldn't bash the south since i haven't been to 99% of it. I could, however, do a little southern baptist bashing, since we have those in the midwest, but i know a few decent southern baptists so that's out.

    Try reading someone's posts before you get all offended by them. I don't plan on moving to florida because of bugs, storms, and people in dade county who can't read a ballot. Sue me.

    Clearly, science and religion don't have to exclude each other and, frankly, shouldn't be relavant to each other.

    Not that I've done much bible reading lately, but I seem to remember the bible being rather silent on topics such as genetic mutation, adaptation, physics, and quantum mechanics.

    Although, we've already done the creation vs. evolution dance:

    http://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sho...light=creation

    There's a newer more insidious attempt to join science and religion at the origin of life hip. It's called "Intelligent Design". The basic arguement seems to be "We'll give you your science stuff if you admit someone's been doing the driving". Anyway, I posted an interesting article on it in the above thread.

    As to Republicans, it's difficult looking at the more vocal Republicans today to see some of the historic contributions of Republicans. Teddy Roosevelt is refered to as the "great conservationist":

    http://www.theodoreroosevelt.org/life/conservation.htm


    Richard Nixon signed into law; The Endangered Species Act, The Clean Air Act, The Clean Water Act, and several other significant environmental laws.

    Yeah, I know what was wrong with him, too.

    Here's an article called "When the GOP was Green"

    http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~gmyers/ehe/repenv.html

    It is sad, how arguements based on what vicerally seems true or those that make good soundbytes seem to supplant well researched and thought out arguements for so many so easily.

    As for Florida, I'd have to argue that Florida is no more representative of the south than California is of the west, inspite of geographic positioning.

    Florida, let's face it, is dominated by transplanted Midwestern and Northeast types (i.e. 'Yankees'), Cubans and Puerto Ricans in the southern part of the state, geriatrics from all over the country, and a smattering of blacks and local-born Floridians.

    Areas of the Panhandle are exceptional, as are large portions of rural/central Florida.

    As far as bashing the South, I have lived in and traveled through most of the regions/states in this country. Assholes and bigots are everywhere, though they tend to concentrate more in certain cities and towns, Daytona Beach for one. Maine sucked, though there are some good people there, including several members. Texas is sometimes suspiciously like somewhere that was transplanted here from another universe, though Austin was pretty cool. Detroit is nothing to brag about, that's for sure. Chicago was a great city for a while, but way too damned cold.

    I do greatly fear the Bible Belt, which isn't limited to the South, but tends to be easily identified with it, sometimes with good reason.

    But getting back to the original post...

    Hey it was a joke. Let's see a similar post about stuffy New Englanders, obnoxious New Yorkers, fat Michiganders, etc., etc., I'll laugh at that one too.

    How could you know if I for example, am an agnostic or athiest. I am not. I have religious convictions , I just do not claim to be on the only correct path. It's the right path for me, that's all I need care about.

    I notice you did not bother to answer my previous question. Did you choose not to or did you just miss it ? I am still interested to read your reply on it. Here it is again so you don't have to scan through all the previous posts .

    And what of persons who disagree with you that have also come to their own conclusion in the same manner as you. Are those people also brainwashed?

    Of course they are. To the rabid of either political persuasion, anyone possessing a modicum of intellect who sits down to rationally puzzle out an opinion cannot possibly come up with a different answer than they have themselves. Someone who has the audacity to come up with a disagreeing opinion is by definition either 1) a cow-fucking, knuckle-dragging, bible-thumping Neanderthal with all the collective intellect and sophistication of an episode of "Hee-Haw" or 2) a hypocritical, juvenile, tree-hugging atheist with no sense but to parrot the dictums of their commie-pinko-faggot university professors (substitute commie-pinko-faggot mainstream media outlet du jour).

    Failing to be a rabid believer of either political persuasion means that I get the fantastic distinction of being both. Just depends on which debate we're having at the moment. Bonus "cool" points for difficulty if I can pull off being called both in the same day.

    But that will cost you the bonus cool points.
