Although the facile answer might seem like, "stupidity," I'm going to go with, "laziness." |

But it seems like a lot of other people ARE that lazy. Look at the state of the world today. Just about every advancement we make these days is IN SPITE OF the opposition. We are living in a crab society and it's depressing. |

Yeah, it never ceases to amuse me how so many anti-intellectual, anti-science technophobes spend so much time on computers or smartphones, using the internet to spread their beliefs and opinions to others... Self-awareness is not their strong suite. |

I often criticize Rap as a genre for stealing already catchy and popular melodies and then simply putting their lame lyrics on top..........but Weird Al? He's been a consistently hilarious spoofer.

Biblical belief?
Merh has been attempting to school me on the subject...... a fool's errand, I'm afraid........ but I've always felt the Bible is very much like a buffet. People take what they want and ignore the rest.
You can pretty much justify anything you do or don't do with that book.

That's exactly my point. If you want to follow the teachings of the bible - and act holier than though while doing it - you don't get to pick and choose. Or you could instead choose to simply live your life in a rational, reasonable and respectful manner. |

OK...........but if you follow it ALL, you're just as likely to be very inconsistent, too.
