Wow, I would miss all the fun in this topic wouldn't I? LOL As far as the title, it doesn't surprise me. It seems that a lot (not all) of "religious" folks are bandwagoners. They just do it because they are sheep and see everyone else doing it. Or they were raised to be something instead of having a choice. It seems that when a question is asked about certain aspects of a religion, you get multiple answers. I think that alone throws a lot of people off.

If I had a doctor that told me "Don't worry, sir. God will take good care of you." I would certainly fear for my life.

and this kills that: Now back to the show: REDNECK PLUMBING JOB I found all these videos sadistically hilarious.

It looks absolutely ridiculous. As if no one taught these people how to wear clothes. Whether it warrants some sort of legal punishment is debatable. However I think that if you sag your pants at a job or an interview you should be kicked out. It is simply asinine to look like a knuckledragger when you are supposed to present yourself with class. In addition any classy clubs or places with a lot of children it shouldn't be allowed. Wear your damn clothes, we don't care about your crusty boxers with swamp balls. The last thing we need is an even bigger number of young ones wearing clothes like that. This is all a result of a bunch of people emulating some hip hop star. Sheeple.

Due to its low body temperature, Virginia Opossums are very much resistant to rabies.

Tough question. I believe it depends on the level of both as far as what pisses me off. Although I know the definition of both words I will attempt explain based on a dictionary's definition of both words: ig·no·rance (?g'n?r-?ns) pronunciation n. The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed. stu·pid·i·ty (st?-p?d'?-t?, sty?-) pronunciation n., pl., -ties. 1. The quality or condition of being stupid. 2. A stupid act, remark, or idea. But in order to understand stupidity, I must understand what stupid is. Excuse my analytical habits, it is how I operate: stu·pid (st?'p?d, sty?'-) pronunciation adj., -er, -est. 1. Slow to learn or understand; obtuse. 2. Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes. 3. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care; foolish or careless: a stupid mistake. 4. Dazed, stunned, or stupefied. 5. Pointless; worthless: a stupid job. Ignorance is pretty straightforward. It simply means "I don't know." or "I am unaware." I find this acceptable. As humans we are ignorant, there is plenty that we don't know. And that is fine, because it gives us something to look forward to learning. But this is where ignorance pisses me off. I'll dub it stubborn ignorance or hell...bigotry. "I don't know or I am unaware but THIS is how it is even though I have no empirical evidence or sensible explanations because I am right and what you say is wrong/stupid/etc." THAT is where ignorance pisses me off. Being ignorant and not bothering to cure it while one pushes their opinions onto others and declaring others wrong or stupid with little reason. Even worse are the ones who embrace bigoted ignorance like a badge of honor. One who refused to admit to their faults and mistakes. I hope that explains ignorance in my opinion. Now onto stupidity. As most of you who know me or remember me, I have a low tolerance for a stupid person. Mostly ones similar to the bigoted ignorant above in which I would consider stupid. But let's use a few of the definitions above. When someone is obtuse but is trying, sure it may be annoying but I give the person some credit for trying to cure themselves. Some people just cannot get the gist of something as quick as others. Even I have my "stupid" moments. Which is why you'll never see me engage in politics. All that terminology pretty much eludes me even when explained. To me politics is a bunch of name tossing. In any case, the obtuse person that tries isn't THAT annoying. Tending to make poor decisions and mistakes, well that depends too. Depends on the severity of the mistake. The worst things imaginable can be done with the best intentions. I believe Alan Grant from Jurassic Park 3 said something like that. If you want to save the whales from extinction so you spend tons and tons of money trying to rescue every beached whale (which apparently costs a lot of money for equipment) and you become broke, well that is stupid but at least it is something you could recover from. Now if you try to save the whales by trying to kill every animal that attacks whales, well that is just straight up stupid beyond belief and you've become a walking disaster. I'm sure I can think of better analogies but you all get the drift. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care. THIS IS PROBABLY THE WORST. This right here is where I cannot stand stupid people. When you are an idiot and don't care and you exist only to spread your stupidity and hostility like a virus I deem you unfit for breeding and I desire your eradication from the gene pool. Darwin Award winners are a perfect example. Need I say more? Fucking morons. Being dazed or stupefied happens. Nothing really special. We all take that stupid pill at times, it is people who are stupid for most of their life that are the real danger. Pointless and useless. Rapists, murderers, and most politicians. Need I say more. I must admit, there is one more group of people who either fit in or outdo stupid and ignorant people. And that group are...The Delusionals. And in America, it is the deadliest disease ever. I'm sure a lot of you agree.

Old thread I know, but I haven't been on here in a while. Just a quickie. I am an agnostic atheist. I cannot prove there is a God nor can I prove there isn't. But I go by probability. Most likely there isn't one. I have no reason to believe there is. I cannot sense or detect this being at all. Those that do, I wonder what it is like. For me, prayer does not work. The Bible has some good things in it but I honestly find it to be illogical, contradictory, and even repulsive. That is just my opinion. I prefer to preach doubt instead of certainty.

If we are going to add God to schools and make people praise Him even if they don't believe then might as well bring Buddha, Kali, Thor, Ra, Russel's Teapot, FSM, and Ahriman to the party. Freedom of religion isn't truly being exercised when you are imposing beliefs onto others who believe in other deities or things period. I say leave the religious practices in their places of worship. Now how to go about it? Don't ostracize folks for their beliefs. Everyone has a right to believe in what they want. But be fair about it.

He's alive and well guys. He comments on my posts all the time as well as his wife Erica. Though he has not been online recently. I would say for the past couple of weeks or so.

This is why you don't underestimate the hippo. Despite its immense anatomy it is deceptively fast. This guy bumped into the carnivorous breed. He got lucky it didn't sit on him or farted.

I waited for most of the movies I wanted to see to come out on DVD. Max Payne, V For Vendetta, Shoot 'Em Up...

And you know what? You are absolutely right. The reason why they are the little sniveling womb turds that they are is because two prokaryotic-minded knuckledraggers decided to perform genetic material distribution with no idea of what the end product will result in and refuse to take any responsibility for what they have created. And thus the rest of us sensible human beings trying to enjoy a good movie in this jacked up world have to suffer because of it.

Yes but the name evokes grossness to people since most Western nations deem such animals disgusting and would persuade mindless morons not to eat them. But I see your point.
