sleeptalker posted:With this one he's focusing not so much on why black people aren't doing things, but on Liberals trying to push traditional American pastimes like baseball and camping on black people. I read it as a distinctly Conservative fear that their remembered "golden years", which they long to return to, are being somehow taken from them and given to the "other". Saying white America "forced" baseball on black America when having few African American ballplayers is a very recent thing.

Internet Webguy posted:The only way to become a political cartoonist is to complain simultaneously about politicians raising taxes and bad infrastructure and never understand the irony. No, they just don't understand either. They think the government is taking in more taxes than they actually are and the reason it's not fixing things is because it's being wasted on things they don't like.

It loving baffles me that these people talk about younger generations being unwilling to hear opposing opinions compared to older ones. Last night my mom called me a "snowflake" because I disagreed with her about a kid not wanting to say the pledge. This is coming from a woman who tries to end a conversation the second it gets political because she doesn't want her political leanings questioned.

Pakled posted:Even the measurements of Noah's Ark given in the Bible are way too small for that. 2500 BC. The time of Userkaf, Pharaoh of the 5th Dynasty of Egypt, who presided over a time of peace and stability, with no signs of giant floods (also well after the Great Pyramid was built). Meanwhile in Sumer, the Early Dynastic is in full swing, with writing and history being produced at near-Egyptian levels. None of them report a big flood that destroys their entire civilization (Ushpanitam's mythic cycle is set in the mythic past, not their present). Across the sea, Mesoamerica and the Peruvian Coast, the march towards full states continues, and population grows in the north as maize agriculture spreads into the Southwest. What you don't get anywhere is millions of people dying as a giant flood sweeps across the world. A massive, noticeable event in any archaeological context. Like, we can find evidence of minor river flooding that ruined some floors and walls at a site. It takes a special combination of willful ignorance, a dismissal of all real evidence and a blind faith in your chosen ancient mythic cycle to stand in the modern world and believe the Old Testament is completely historically accurate. Not that religion doesn't have a place in human society and all, it's actually quite important for creating and managing social bonds, and keeping anti-social individuals from acting out with threats of divine sanction, it's just, at least admit that most of it didn't happen and don't get offended when you're presented with actual provable reality.

I think I can answer this one. My girlfriend picked me up The Bible from Scratch, which helped to explain the books, their place in history and the timeline. The opening chapter considers The Four Views of Inspiration for how the Bible was written:
So the theory was that the Bible used Noah's Arc to explain the Ice Age and who certain animals went extinct and others survived, or even how certain animals migrated to different continents. PowerBeard fucked around with this message at 07:56 on Apr 16, 2017 |

Twelve by Pies posted:Yeah, Lietha believes that making the ark small like in the comic makes people think that the flood story in the Bible is fiction, and that if people see the true size of the ark they would go "Ah, yes, this craft absolutely could hold two or possibly seven of every animal in the world as well as enough food and water to take care of them all for forty days." This is why he's a big supporter of that life-size model of the ark in wherever, I think it's Kentucky? Come to think of it, that life-size ark has to have building inspection permits and is presumably covered by the fire codes. Does anyone know what the maximum occupancy is?

This come from pro-life people that are in favor of dead penalty, people that want religious teaching in school except when they learn other religions exist and would get that. That want unfair laws applied to criminals, but then they learn that law make no distinction criminals/normal people. How can people be so dense? My loving head hurts just thinking how much a bunch of hypocrites and liars are and in denial about everything.

Bad things Bush did were actually fallout from Bill getting a blowjob once. Now that we've had 8 years of Obama, and because Hillary still draws breath in this life, they will be the new bogeymen until the next Democratic president/prominent liberal who actually manages to get things done despite Republican efforts.

Ben posted:Frank Chodorov claimed the income tax was the ‘root of all evil’ and he was right. Once we were inflicted with the scam known as the Federal Reserve, the mass robbery known as the income tax soon followed. We are forced to pay for our own enslavement. Oh sure, they tell us it’s ‘voluntary.’ Try not volunteering and see what happens. Heroes such as Irwin Schiff resisted it and they locked him up. He died shackled in a prison hospital while Clinton pardoned his drug pushing friends as well as the billionaire Marc Rich.

Uh, Garrison, shearing sheep is good for them. I know you're going for a "sheeple" thing but sheep that don't get sheared look like this and they have a hard time seeing and moving and are at risk of overheating. You could have chosen a better metaphor if you're trying to say "taxes are bad."
