Default Methane On Mars Proves Bible Is Bull

Life on Mars, what does it mean? It means the fundamentalist religious
fanatics, who have done everything in their power to set Science back 2
thousand years, have lost the war of Science Vs. Religion. The victory
belongs to Science. Down with the heathen religious lies that have
stifled human progress for far too long. Good riddance to bad garbage,
the false religions! Long live the Sciences!

We at the IES knew all along that Science would defeat the hypocritical
religious heresies that have for too long stifled human advancement. I
say all the hideous religious myths should be thrown on the ash heap of
hisory and set ablaze once and for all! -RX

Er - um - sorry - I don't quite follow. How would life on Mars contradict
the Bible?

Bible scholars (is that an oxymoron?) seem to agree that life is unique to
the Earth. Of course, they also believe the earth is 6000 years old and that
it's the center of the universe.

I seem to be missing the quantifiers in the posting on my ng server,
maybe they got omitted when your posting got transferred across the net.
Did your original posting say "Some Bible scholars"? And in the case
of your last fact(oid) (= that "they" believe it is the center of the
universe), did you perhaps say "some Bible scholars who have been dead
for 500 years"?

For that matter, I've never heard any Bible scholar express the opinion
that life was unique to Earth, although I've heard some say that perhaps
the opposite is true. ("Perhaps", because they didn't want to be
dogmatic.) But maybe you limit your input from Bible scholars to late
night TV.

What's the difference if the religious bull is on 'Late Night' or 'Early
Morning'... it certainly is not on at 'Prime Time'. We all know the
Religions are Anti-Science. We all know about the war of Science Vs.
Religion. Who do you think is going to win that war? Do you think folks
will want to go back to the 'Dark Ages' of the hypocritical religious
myths and superstitious ignorance of the past, or will they want to move
on to the bright and glorious future that the promise of Science portends?

I'm afraid Rudy, this worn out wheeze just isn't going to attract the level
of attention you crave. Maybe you should jump on one of the political
bandwagons, you'll generate more "hits" for yourself by slamming the current
administration. In any case, don't you have finals or something coming up?
Shouldn't you be studying and not annoying newsgroups?
