    "Things like this?" Things like what? Things that God made painfully obvious, but that you somehow interpreted to mean exactly the opposite of what He proclaimed? Knowing how your "brain" works, I don't doubt it.

      Even if our little troll was right and God had lied about how long it took Him to create the universe, it still says He STOPPED.

      That means Creation is complete. No more creating. That means NO EVOLUTION, because evolution means the creation of new species.

        As a scientist, accuracy is a pet peeve of mine, so one little nitpick, Brother OYK:

        I just don't want any homers to get any silly ideas that God uses evolution to create things!

        Well said. -OYK

          Science isn't complete truth, there is a being of infinite power.
          So you admit that "evilution" is absolute nonsense and that everything GOD wrote in the Holy Bible (King James Version, 1611) is 100% infallible?

          This poor boy's not quite right in the head.
          Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

          According to maverick's "logic", "put to death" could mean "put to death", or it could mean "given hugs, special privileges, and have special snickerdoodles baked for them", there's just no way of knowing. Still, I see the poor tard's banned now, so there goes whatever slim chance of Salvation he may once have possessed.
          O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



          God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

            Only for a day.

            Ah, but a day to whom?

            Special snickerdoodles? Mother GLYNDDIE'S special snickerdoodles?

            No wonder TwinkBoy is so insistent upon remaining a transvestite Homer! Why, I'd do just about anything for Mother Glynndie's snickerdoodles!
