Space colonization: Ain't gonna happen. We will build a thriving
metropolis in Antarctica before we build a modest sustainable colony on
Mars. And Mars is about the limit of our spacefaring. We ain't *never*
getting off the earth.

Why? Because he says so?

If Christians quit predicting God's wants and acting as His proxy, the
rest of us might find it easier to get along with them

Why single out Christians? It would seem that there's another religion
that's causing us a lot more problems along that line right now...

I live in the U.S. and it's Christians that try and make me pledge
allegiance under God, make my kids do the same, build crosses on public
land, and start crusades against the other major intolerant group who
also knows what God needs.

But it's the other religion that actually *succeeds* in killing people,
often wholesale.

Oh really? Fundamentalist Christianity was standing *right *there when the
US attacked another country that hadn't done a damn thing to us and it's
quite often Christians that are defending the actions of the (he says)
Christian president who took us into that quagmire.

How many people have we killed now? Ten times more than 9/11? At least
three times the number of US citizens killed in all terrorist attacks
worldwide over the last decade? More?

No, no. It was created so that it would ultimately, after much work
and refinement, produce *ME*.

Nonsense. The universe was created so that beer could exist, and day
baseball games exist so that we have a place to enjoy beer.

I'm sorry that you and Sea Wasp are so critically short of information,
Doug, but the fact is, the Universe and Everything was created by and for
cats. You old Silly, you.

Nonsense! The world was created so my dogs would have a place to poop...

ersatz eschatons: the infinite proliferation of the human race
throughout the cosmos. We'll stay right here and take our medicine till
Christ returns.

This is so typical of religious thought. Don't bother even thinking!
Don't discover! (like the dumb ass Pope said) Just hang out and wait
for Jesus.

I love to hear the atheists make fools of themselves. A few years ago,
they were wandering sperm, and now they say there's no God.

So what did you start out as? A fern?

Begone, foul non-beer-drinking-at-night-games heretic!

But do Scotsmen?

pipes.

But they made a mistake and created doubleheaders, and people got drunk
off their asses and woke up the next morning in the restroom of 3
Rivers Stadium.

Ah. so you believe in Hell.
