Phrenology - the Godly Science of feeling bumps!

You're just making that up as you go, aren't you buddy. Neither Jesus nor I are impressed by your $3 words.

Nope, just a rendition of a bit of Popper's philosophy.

Scientific ideas have to be by nature falsifiable, thus, it's necessary for the onus of proof to sit upon the person wishing to prove something, as a true disproof is impossible in science.

Depends. In abscense of evidence for a position either way, it would seem that the best position would be to assume that it does not exist or that the claim is inaccurate, otherwise, I could postulate rediculous concepts about teapots orbiting the sun too small for telescopes to see or other unfalsifiable concepts and demand evidence of disproof, which is impossible.

Kinda like atheism you mean?

There is absolutely no evidence phrenology is anything close to accurate. It's been discredited for decades now, and there is absolutely no legitimate scientific group that would give credence to these theories.

Do you have any messicants on your Property, Brother James?

If so, you can probably convince them very easily that it is Something Very Holy and they will Worship it - and yourself

I do not think I'd be comfortable being worshipped by messicans. I'd rather see them praying to God. Sadly, most of the messicans around here are papist catlickers so I try and keep my distance. They work the fields.
I let the nigras work near and in the main house as they are all Baptists. Plus they sing catchy tunes.

The only good thing about my shoe shaped bump is it looks like a right side up 'U' so the good luck cannot fall out!

Re: Phrenology - the Godly Science of feeling bumps!

Phrenology, like Creation Science, is a respectable, practical field which has been much misaligned by secular scientists with a Godless agenda. It's funny how these scientists who believe in myths like evolution, genetics, and embryology are so quick to dismiss phrenology as "quackery", even though it has been repeatedly shown throughout the years to have fully explained human behavior.

The shape of a human skull does indeed prove quite telling to the owner's personality and mental facilities. Have you ever noticed how many retards have narrow, cone shaped heads? Or what about that backwards sloping forehead? It's also no coincidence that races with lesser intellectual capabilities such as negroes have very round skulls with protruberances in the sexual/self-preservational "animal" parts of the brain.

Some phrenologists were so skilled that they were able to identify a criminal by skull shape. But, because of liberal agenda advocating criminal rights, phrenology was unfairly dismissed in prosecution and the courts. I know we could make better and more fair convictions if phrenologists were allowed to testify upon a suspect's skull. After all, doesn't it just seem intrinsically true to you? Haven't you ever just looked at a person and just knew they were a criminal? I know I have.

Quoted for the Truth

What the Reverand said and would like to point out that every single suspect we brought into the Freehold County Phrenologist for screening were find to have the bumps on their heads just like a criminal's. As Sergeant Cleon, the previous head of the Security Detachment, told me when I was a rookie "there is nothing like some stick time to get a perp's head to look one". Words to live by from a great man.

What about bumps that are the direct result of a mule kick? Are they interperted the same because they now exist due to God's will? I have one shaped like a Mule Shoe....

Re: Phrenology - the Godly Science of feeling bumps!

I'm always a little suspicious of all this Scientifical stuff, but if a Godly man like Brother Bathfire tells me it's good then it must be.

It puts me in mind of Cousin Josh.
As a child he had a huge bump in his area of Moral and Religious sentiments.
So much so we all thought he was going to grow up being one of the most Godly men in the state.
Turns out it was where his Momma had dropped him on his head when he was a baby.
He ended up being a retard at the end of the day.
I think they sold him or exchanged him for a new carburetor or something just as useful.

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

A question that worried Landover for centuries was, "How do you know if someone is a True Christian™ or an atheist or catholic?" Even the devil knows the Bible so a biblical test is useless. Direct questions such as "Are you a True Christian™?", which you would have thought infallible, do not take into account the ability of some people, inspired by Satan (atheists or catholics) not to tell the truth!

Here is where science can help. We can examine the head of the applicant; this is Phrenology and is infallible. It is God's way of marking the reprobate. Here is a picture with the Godliness part of the skull highlighted.




You will be unsurprised to find that all Pastors at Landover have huge protuberances in the area of "Moral and Religious Sentiments"

Phrenology is the science of brain and character reading, and "the only true science of mind." Phrenology was the brainchild of the True Christian Missionary, the Australian Franz Joseph Gall (1758-1828). His years of research and inspired thoughts produced the following:

1.The brain is the organ of the mind and possibly the home of the soul.
2. The mind is composed of multiple distinct, innate faculties.
3. Because they are distinct, each God Given Gift must have a separate seat or "organ" in the brain.
4. The size of an organ, other things being equal, is a measure of its power.
5. The shape of the brain is determined by the size that God gave to the various organs.
6. As the skull takes its shape from the brain, the surface of the skull can be read as an accurate index of psychological aptitudes and tendencies.

Such was Gall's fame that R. Chenevix (phrenologist) said, in 1828, "[Before phrenology] all we knew about the brain was, how to slice it..."

It has been pointed out to me that Seth Cochran, a reprobate, homer and witch, who occasionally stalks pastors at Landover, also had a huge protuberance in the area of "Moral and Religious Sentiments". This is where the skill of the Biblical Phrenologist comes into play – This malformed growth was caused by even greater swellings in the surrounding areas of Selfishness, Homerism and Devil Worship.

If you want to know anything about anyone, have a qualified Phrenologist feel their bumps. Choosing a partner for life, an employee or whether to do business with someone is a chancy business and no one likes uncertainty, therefore phrenology makes sense.
