Will you goddamn frigging anti-intellectual religious aholes please keep your
putrid hubristic self-justifying wire-in-the-brain "ignorance is bliss"
syllogistically circular crap out of net.philosophy?  If there are any
Christian idiots out there who are offended or upset by my words,
just remember that *your* teachings tell you that it isn't yours to judge,
and that it is yours to turn the other cheek.  If you think your god
is up to it, then I dare you to let *him* deal with me; he certainly shouldn't
need the help of one of his puny creations.


"How do you know that?"
"It says so in the book."
"How do you know the book is right?"
"The book contains the truth."
"How do you know that?"
"It says so in the book."
"Oh, of course."
