    I get it, but Ards is gonna feel a lot validated I think.

  2. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    Deus Lo Volt!

    A Outremer!

  3. JohnAnnArbor says:

    Dude, who’s the beneficiary on your life insurance policy?

  4. Enoch_Root says:

    JohnAnnArbor – Dude, who’s the beneficiary on your life insurance policy?

    Western Civilization

  5. JohnAnnArbor says:

    That’s the Methodist cross, right?

  6. McGehee says:

    Well, whaddaya know. All this time I’ve been rebutting claims that GWB is some kind of wild-eyed Rapture-baiting fundie because he’s a lifelong Methodist, and now it looks like I was wrong.

    Oops, he he.

  7. Dan Collins says:

    Boy are those Caspians going to be pissed when they see this!

  8. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    I thought Prince Caspian was already a Christian?

  9. The Lost Dog says:

    “I thought Prince Caspian was already a Christian?”

    No! No! No!

    He was a CHRISTMASIAN, much like myself.

    I do kove the Lord, but sometimes I love my Christmas presents better.

    Looks a lot like LCMS to me. sola scriptura sola fide sola gratia

    That’s the Methodist cross, right?

    Yes. You can tell Methodists from Southern Baptists, because Methodists will say hello when they bump into each other in the liquor store.

  12. ThomasD says:

    I get it, but Ards is gonna feel a lot validated I think.

    Only because Ards is, well, Ards.

    The map is entirely accurate from a strictly historical standpoint. Christianity existed in all of those places long before the Mohammedans arrived.

  13. Ardsgaine says:

    I get it, but Ards is gonna feel a lot validated I think.

    roflmao

  14. nishizonoshinji says:

    that is a past map.
    heres a map from this future, where u guys get wat u want.
    Jesusland

  15. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    nishi – that is so retarded as to be beneath even you. also, Altered Carbon was ok. Not great… maybe I’ll give him another chance.

  16. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    also – here is the future you would prefer: Not my daughters

  17. McGehee says:

    The future Nishi would prefer is a blank wall.

  18. nishizonoshinji says:

    The movie has been severely criticized for conducting the interviews of the people who represent the scientific consensus on evolution in the movie under deceptive circumstances. The scientists, who included noted blogger P. Z. Myers, Richard Dawkins, and Eugenie Scott, were told they were being interviewed for a movie called Crossroads on the Intersection of Science and Religion. In fact, they were being interviewed for creationist propaganda.[3][4] Intrepid internet researchers have uncovered[5] that the domain name ExpelledtheMovie.com (as well as .net, .org, .info .biz & .us) was already registered as of March 2007.[6] Though Crossroads may have been the working title, but no comparable domain name was registered. Myers was contacted in April 2007, after the title Expelled had apparently been chosen.

    The producers have also been accused of bribing schools into forcing kids to see the movie. [7]

  19. nishizonoshinji says:

    when will u creepyxians learn the Wedge Strategy is a loozer??
    u deserve those mean cowardly intolerant darwin fishes.

    stoopid.

  20. alppuccino says:

    What’s your favorite food nishi?

  21. nishizonoshinji says:

    Altered Carbon is being made into a movie.

  22. Education Guy says:

    Does evolution adequately address the beginning of life on earth?

  23. nishizonoshinji says:

    i hope Thirteen wins the Nebula and get made into a miniseries.

  24. nishizonoshinji says:

    edu guy, one last time.
    if IDT is science, do the work.
    otherwise STFU.
    Expelled is apparently, just another failed implementation of the wedge strategy.
    reall slow learners arent u?

  25. alppuccino says:

    What are you wearing nishi?

  26. Education Guy says:

    I’m not talking about IDT, I’m talking about evolution. So I guess your inability to read makes you the slow learner nishi.

    So, for the slow learners amongst us, one more time:

    Does evolution adequately address the beginning of life on earth?

  27. nishizonoshinji says:

    it is the best model we have dolt.
    in the competitive arena of science, in the marketplace, that is the successful meme.

    im disgusted that i argued ingood faith with u lot and u KNEW this was dishonest creationist bullshit alla long.

  28. nishizonoshinji says:

    you so deserve Jesusland.
    i hope u get it.

  29. nishizonoshinji says:

    Morgan’s Jesusland.

  30. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    Nishi – when you assume… if you actually care what I think

  31. alppuccino says:

    Is it wool. Because wool can be scratchy.

  32. Pablo says:

    What color is your sky, nishi?

  33. MayBee says:

    when will u creepyxians learn the Wedge Strategy

    I guess the creepy xians must feel pretty good, that they were able to convince some Jewish people to make Expelled.
    You are waaaay into that movie, nish.

  34. JD says:

    nishi used to be mildly amusing. Now, it is the same ole, same ole everytime. ESCR, theocons, heavy lifting, Wedge strategy. No matter the topic, nishi is as predictable as Memphis missing clutch free throws.

  35. Education Guy says:

    You should stop listening to the voices in you head nishi, they are lying to you. That said, I’ll take your answer as akin to “I’m to stupid to answer with anything other than dogma, so I will pretend that you are advocating for ID”. Way to go science Jane!

    BTW – it’s only the best model if you think science should be flexible in regards to it’s definitions and it’s rules, which sadly takes it out of the realm of actual science. Sort of like your take on Islam, burka girl.

  36. I Am Nishi's Repeated Slugs From a Bottle of Bacardi 151 (It's Okay, I'm Sufi) says:

    if U rgu d3n U is a creeshunist!

    U can’t haz science lol!

  37. Education Guy says:

    I am sort of curious what makes it the best model available in nishi’s world, and remember for purposes of this conversation we are speaking only of the start of life on earth. So go ahead nishi, wow me with your science.

  38. nishizonoshinji says:

    kk, i dont think collins wud live in Jesusland.
    but its perfect for the resta u.
    :(

    i think the darwin fishes are perfectly apt.
    the fishes are the perfect cultural icon to represent xians as stupid reactionaries, and symbolize their ignorant resistance to all four paradigms of evolution.
    and i see beaucoup evidence for the “stupid” branding in their repeated attempts to utilize a FAILED STRATEGY to accomplish their goals.

  39. nishizonoshinji says:

    Maybee they paid him.

  40. nishizonoshinji says:

    just like they are paying highschools to force kids to watch that creationist bullshit.

  41. MayBee says:

    Maybee they paid him.

    Aha! Jewish people will do anything for money, I guess.

  42. Education Guy says:

    Simply repeating the same tired crap and pretending you are actually responding to an argument does not make you look smart nishi, it makes you look like the petulant spoiled child you are.

    Show me the proof or admit you are a fraud.

  43. nishizonoshinji says:

    Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed is a creationist propaganda docu-drama starring Ben Stein as a “rebel” out to stick it to “big science” for its repression and suppression of poor little intelligent design. In it, Ben Stein pretends to interview various avid public supporters of evolution and intelligent design.

  44. Education Guy says:

    Has anyone here spoken in defense of ID or creationism?

  45. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    I am no big fan of the Evangelical’s take on this whole thing.

  46. nishizonoshinji says:

    gee, maybee, where is ur argument that Expelled is an indictment of all closed minded haughty scientists?

    u’ll like jesusland….hommashexuals are shot on sight, all birth control is illegal, there are no public schools, only IDT is taught in unis, and jesusland is surrounded by a big honkin fence.

    except the fence was built the technostates of the Rim to keep the jesuslanders in

  47. nishizonoshinji says:

    by the technostates.

  48. nishizonoshinji says:

    jesuslanders are also called republicans

  49. alppuccino says:

    Some underwear can really ride up too.

  50. Education Guy says:

    So there you go, as it turns out nishi is actually a little slow and a lot defensive about her lack of knowledge. I’d say she has absolute faith in evolution explaining the beginnings of life, but that’d be cruel.

    Someone give her a cookie and put her down for a nap.

  51. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    hommashexuals are shot on sight, all birth control is illegal, there are no public schools, only IDT is taught in unis

    So, you’re saying it’ll be like Iran is today in reality

    Will I be able to beat my wife and required to stone her from time to time?

  52. Techie says:

    Wow, Nishi, thanks for laying that out there.

    Now, to the subject of the thread. Big “Heh” on using the Methodist cross (former Wesley Foundation pres. here). I’d like to see the great Christian centers of learning such as Alexandria and Smyrna again, so what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, right?

  53. Techie says:

    BTW, friends don’t let trolls threadjack.

    (This message brought to you by the Ad Council)

  54. Education Guy says:

    Sorry Techie, just wanted to point out that nishi has no earthly idea what she is talking about. Her definitions of religion and science exist entirely in her head.

  55. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    does… not… follow… the… narrative… must be… rehabilitated.

  56. nishizonoshinji says:

    read the book Enoch.
    ;)

    my definitions of religion and science are isomorphic with Dawkins, Darwin, Wilson, Dennet, Boyer, Pinker, Sperber, Cavalli-Sforza, Ridley, Atran and host of other scientists.

    i guess urs are isomorphic with Robertson and Dobson, right?

  57. MayBee says:

    Dawkins

    Ah, so that’s why you are so bothered by this movie.

  58. nishizonoshinji says:

    maybee u argued in bad faith with me.
    i will neither forget or forgive.

  59. JD says:

    Am I the only one that is fascinated by nishi’s ability to make shit up, ignore all hints of cognitive dissonance, and redefine terms at her pleasure?

  60. I Am Nishi's Missing Mondays says:

    i make is0m0rfics!

    i asoom c0nfl@shun wen nun eXXXists!

    You iz dum!!!!

  61. Education Guy says:

    You’re building an army of strawmen nishi, because of the science.

  62. MayBee says:

    maybee u argued in bad faith with me.
    i will neither forget or forgive.

    What?

  63. JD says:

    nishi would not know a good faith argument if it bit her in her ample thighs.

  64. nishizonoshinji says:

    maybee u argued that Expelled was about all “freedom of inquiry”.
    it is only about IDT.

  65. nishizonoshinji says:

    i think Goldberg better get his outrage pants on for when Altered Carbon hits the big screen.
    and when Thirteen wins the Nebula.

    Morgan’s Jesusland is exactly wat u xians want.
    and exactly wat u deserve.

    an guess wat else? no one will have to force kids to watch it.

  66. I Am Nishi's Missing Weekends says:

    “maybee u argued in bad faith with me.
    i will neither forget or forgive.”

    s’not diffuclt maby, s’called a Sufi fatwa, lol!

    i don’t can cut off yer head issalander, i bore u till u get migrane, lol!

  67. nishizonoshinji says:

    a lot of ppl, especially young ppl, will pay to watch it….and then there will be a videogame.
    Escape from Jesusland, anyone?

    shall we play a game?

  68. MayBee says:

    nishi, I haven’t seen the movie. Somebody linked to a blurb about it. The blurb said the people that saw it said it used IDT but made them think about the larger question of “freedom of inquiry”. If you think I said something else, post a link.

    It is a movie, nishi. You are all bent out of shape about it. I suspect it has to do with their reported portrayal of Dawkins.
    My interest in this movie and ID, on a scale of 0 to 27, is about 1.

  69. I Am Nishi's Frightened Neurons says:

    all Xshans iz teh same!

    all mussulmans iz not!

    HATE!!!! HATE!!! is wot u have, lol!

  70. I Am Nishi's G.E.D. says:

    u Xshans force kids tu wach videos!

    and taek away ther ipods 4 n0 resun!

    and won’t can let them haz tatooz!

    We is0m0rphs HATES Xshans! we HATES them 4ever!

    lol!

  71. Lewis says:

    Morgan’s Jesusland is exactly wat u xians want.
    and exactly wat u deserve.

    Oh, criminey, she really has gone off the deep end, hasn’t she?

    Wait a sec – do you have to be Christian to post here, or should I just go home?

  72. nishizonoshinji says:

    if i post the link ull just go all weasel word an say i took u out of context.
    /spit

    the suckage amplitude of this site is inversely proportional to the amount of jeffie’s postings.
    it is an alienculture here anymore.
    theocon culture.

  73. Techie says:

    I R Weasel!

  74. nishizonoshinji says:

    Wait a sec – do you have to be Christian to post here

    obviously

  75. Techie says:

    Isomorphs? Dude, you’re phasing.

  76. nishizonoshinji says:

    have u read it Lewis?
    Morgan’s Jesusland incorporates everything they want….its theocon paradise!

  77. Education Guy says:

    If the carnival game vendors run an honest game in Jesusland, then I’m in.

    You can never have too many Charlie Daniels foil mirrors, or stuffed parrots.

  78. Techie says:

    Radar, state your business in one word or less….

  79. McGehee says:

    u KNEW this was dishonest creationist bullshit alla long.

    You were so devoted to the idea that we didn’t know it, we just didn’t have the heart to tell you.

    (Except that we did. Repeatedly, and not only in that thread.)

  80. nishizonoshinji says:

    and Escape from Jesusland will make such an awesome game…..

  81. McGehee says:

    Isomorphs? Dude, you’re phasing.

    But get a load of that midi-chlorian count!

  82. I Am Nishi's Raging Colon says:

    U R L TEH SUCK!

    u wl respect Dawkins AUTHORITAH!

    i think ur aliens anymore!

    i can haz jeff?

  83. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    nishi – the QueenBee Central Command… the Queen of the Space Unicorns… commands you to take your lithium!

  84. I Am Nishi's Freebase Pipe says:

    lithium = theoconspiracy!

    I haz proof!

    teh dark nigt of Jesusland is descending!

    U luv Jesusland, don’t you, big boi!

    o yeah…give me sum of ur hot, steemee Jesusland!

    o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland o jesusland!!!!!!!!!ELEVENTY-ONE!!!!

  85. Education Guy says:

    Now she wants to lock us up due to her embarrassment over not knowing the limitations of evolution theory. It’s sad what a little ignorance and a massive sense of self will do to a person.

  86. Enoch_Root - TWP also says:

    I think it’s called invincible ignorance.

  87. Techie says:

    I blame internet in high school classrooms.

  88. Slartibartfast says:

    I’m just wondering why nishi’s dogma insists on licking its own asshole, in public.

  89. Lewis says:

    No, djinni, I ain’t read Jesusland.

    Y’know, as a young lad, I used to be resentful of Evangelical Christians. They were probably pretty high up on my list of bugaboos at one point.

    Then fundamentalist Muslims started murdering a lot of unbelievers, and that sort of re-ordered my priorities a bit.

    To the point where I feel like I don’t really have to give Jerry Falwell another thought until such time as every single jihadist in the entire world is dead. Y’know what I’m sayin’?

  90. It is a movie, nishi.

    well, she did seem confused about Syrianna being a documentary or something.

  91. MayBee says:

    If they release “Expelled” in the theaters and then take it out again, it is just going to be Poking the Snake.

  92. I Am Nishi's Suspension of Disbelief says:

    wot?

  93. Carin says:

    Wow, the griefer forgot to take her medicine again. You know, reading her posts, it’s like she battling the voices in her head HERE on PW.

  94. Pablo says:

    I wonder if we could tap into the source and get a feed running here. It might make her interesting.

  95. JD says:

    wtf is nishi raving about today?

    EG – Your simple question short circuited her entire system.

  96. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    Remember: the only constructive response to nishi is “I’m not your Daddy”.

  97. nishizonoshinji says:

    nah, Lewis Wu, the shahuda get their whacks from Morgan.
    but the xians/republicans/jesuslanders get the most mockery.

    Lewis u usta dig teh scifi, u shud read the book.
    u see Jesusland is everything the theocons are lobbying for right now.
    all the kids in Jesusland want to hop the fence so they can be illegal immigrant republicans in the Rim and get a FREE education, witch is a hundred times better then the shit they have to pay for in Jesusland.
    like maybee an carin want, hehe.

    from Thirteen.

    “Fucking Jesusland,” she slurred.
    He gestured lazily. “Hey, I’m not complaining. It’s the sort of thing keeps me in work.Come to that, Jesusland isn’t the only place I’ve seen with weak oversight.”
    “No. Only place they are fuckin proud of it though.” She peered morosely into her drink. “Stil can’t fucking believe it sometimes, you know?”
    “Believe what?”
    “Secession. What America did to itself. I mean.” She made an upward groping gesture with her free hand. “We fucking invented the modern world, Marlsalis. We modelled it, on a continental scale, got it working, sold it to the rest of the world. Credit cards, popular air travel, globaldataflow, spaceflight, nanotech…we put that in place you know? And then we let a bunch of bible-thumping Neanderthals tear it all to pieces? What the fuck is that, Marsalis?”

  98. nishizonoshinji says:

    i think….those mean cowardly intolerant darwin fishes are a cultural trend marker.
    i think the more the theocons force their religion into government, the more antipathy we will see towards xianity.

    it will become more and more legit to bash xians.
    more popular.
    :)

    Her hand went on clenching and unclenching, making loose gentle fists in the air, one after another. “If the Chinese or maybe the Indians had come and just chased us out of the drivers seat, you know. I could maybe handle that. Every culture has to give way to something in the end. Someone fresher or sharper always comes along. But we fucking did this to ourselves. We let the grasping, hating, fearing idiot dregs of our own sociecty tip us right over the fucking precipice.

  99. nishizonoshinji says:

    100

  100. nishizonoshinji says:

    and the more they try to use the Wedge Strategy, the more they become a joke, in acadame, in unis, in colleges, in popular contemporary literature and media.
    and they derserve it.

  101. cynn says:

    nishi, you are too apopolyptic. Read Chandler’s a small good thing and that puts it right, imo.

  102. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    nishi: still not your Daddy.

  103. Enoch_Root says:

    not your daddy

  104. Dan Collins says:

    Happy Birthday, Matt! When’s Jen going in?

  105. Dan Collins says:

    Are you going to blog your baby?

  106. nishizonoshinji says:

    Expelled is just more Wedge Strategy bullshitcrap.
    im angry and humiliated that i tried to argue in good faith over it, pretty much.

    the Derb is at the consciousness seminar in arizona.
    when he gets back ill see if he will rip Expelled for the crappy twodigit creationist propaganda that it is.

  107. nishizonoshinji says:

    like i said, u deserve those mean cowardly intolerant darwin fishes.

  108. B Moe says:

    reall slow learners arent u?

    Speak fucking English, you petulant child, or quit fucking bitching people don’t understand you.

  109. McGehee says:

    B Moe, I actually kind of like not quite understanding whatever it is the ‘toon is nattering about.

    How would you like it if you could understand what the starlings and magpies and mockingbirds were saying?

  110. Smirky McChimp (Formerly Andrew) says:

    What’s fantastic is that she doesn’t seem to realize she’s talking largely to her self. She sees the dread Theocons under every mattress and thinks this rational. She openly expresses antipathy for xtianity based on…well, something, yet claims to be a scientific realist objectively testing phenomena. She prattles on, making her own cliches by repetition (“darwin fishes”), blithely ignorant that the tedium of her incessant demand that we respond to this Jesusland thing precludes any possibility that we would ever look into it.

    Add to that the fact that her sentence structure, grammar, and spelling are those of a retarded monkey, and you have the ultimate one-woman show: she is both performer and audience.

  111. Education Guy says:

    EG – Your simple question short circuited her entire system.

    It’s because she’s trying to play chess. She’s anticipating where I’m trying to go with my question. She knows damn well that the word/concept of evolution is being used as a stand in for abio-genesis, for which there is no scientific proof, same as ID.

    She knew the trap, knew there was no way not to step in it except to avoid it altogether by accusing me of shilling for ID. Which I am not.

  112. Enoch_Root says:

    It’s not fiction! It’s reality! NishiLand

  113. BJTexs TW/BP says:

    Don’t worry, Enoch. It’s all good. They’ll be allowed to get married in between the electric shocks while in prison.

    It’s all good in nishiland.
