initial analysis of the times square bombing attempt.
and so it is with target new york.
it is entirely possible, nay likely, that the recent times square car bomb was placed at the doorstep of the viacom building's main northeast entrance because of the south park controversy.
In other news, it looks like my Muslim thread got the South Park treatment.

But hey, goofing on atheists is totally cool!
Double standards. Why don't the Mods show a little backbone?
please note that this list is intended to apply to the fundies alone.
not to all nonbelievers.
so let's turn the mirror and grab some popcorn:.
No, I do not need to defend myself. None of your bullet points applies to me. I don't hate Christians. You merely amuse me. 
I only get pissed off when Christians want to use the law to force me into their mold. That's authoritarian. We've got a secular goverment for very good reasons. In this, the social cons are as bad as the liberals.
Live and let live. Or live and let die, as the case may be.
Some of the things atheists say are used as didactic devices, it doesn't mean we actually believe them. I'll admit, atheists are people too, just a little more evolved ;-). Some are nasty, some are nice, but we aren't all hateful.
OK, when Christians won't believe whats in front of their eyes is irksome too. "God made the universe to look old!" Lulz.
Yes, it isn't fair to say the same thing regarding Christians all being hateful.
I save my bile for libs. Now there's a bunch with unprobable beliefs!
OK. Supergirl has convinced me. I am going to church next Sunday.

this object is 13 billion light-years away.. light travels 300,000 kilometers per second.. it took 13 billion years for us to receive the light that was recorded as the image in the article:.
buy a cheap telescope at a department store, and you can see the andromeda galaxy easily.
Perry is our God! He created the Universe last Thursday, he just made it look old, and he also implanted us with false memories!
| action \ true church | Christian | None | Last Thursday |
|---|---|---|---|
| No Faith | very bad | none | unimaginably wonderful |
| Faith | very good | none | unimaginably awful |
If you choose to disbelieve in a god, you risk Hell, but it is nothing compared to the hell you risk by choosing to believe. If you take Pascal's argument seriously, you would be wise to choose not to believe.
If you have already written (or desired to write) lefty, you will be punished. Repent this perversion and depravity now, and you will be spared further punishment.
So you see, Perryhovah really created the Universe last Thursday. Not last Wednesday, like the unbelievers say.

why are the illegal immigrants demanding their rights?
they're illegal, they don't have the rights of an american citizen because they are not citizens.
I'm talking about becoming a citizen. I was always legal.
You look a little to brown and south of the borderish to me. I'm calling la migra.

An atheist, Howard Storm was lying in a Paris Hospital in 1985 - dying from a perforated stomach. His stomach acids were leaching into his other organs. Suddenly he was standing up in a surreal brightly lit hospital room. He tried to talk with his wife and a fellow patient, but they both ignored him. Off in the distance, outside the room in the hall he heard voices calling: "Howard", "Howard". Come out here the voices said, "Let's go", "hurry up". We've been waiting for you a long time. He stepped out into the hallway and could see these people off in the distance. He could tell they were male and female, tall and short, old and young adults. He followed them feeling very much alive. Every time he hesitated they demanded that he keep up. These people kept telling him if he would follow them his troubles would end. A fog surrounded him, and it got gradually darker as he shuffled along behind them. These people became increasingly angry and sarcastic with Howard. He now felt he was being forced by an angry mob of unfeeling people to an unknown destination. They next began shouting and hurling insults at Howard. The more miserable Howard became, the more enjoyment they derived from his distress.
A few of the voices attempted a conciliatory tone with Howard to amuse the others. Their mood was excited and triumphant. The hopelessness of Howard's situation overwhelmed him, especially when he noted he was now in complete darkness. He could feel their breath on him as they shouted and snarled insults at him. They were playing with him, just as a cat plays with a mouse. These people were once human. The best way Howard could describe them was to think of the worse possibly imaginable people stripped of every impulse of compassion. They began pushing and beating on Howard.
Howard began to pray to God, which excited those around him to rage. It was as if Howard was throwing boiling oil on them. They screamed at Howard; "There is no God! Who do you think you are talking to"? They spoke in the most obscene language, worse than any blasphemy said on earth. There voices became more and more distant in the darkness. Alone, destroyed, yet painfully alive in that revolting place for a time without measure Howard was experiencing the terrible consequences of a life of selfish materialism and rejection of God. Then for the first time in his adult life he began singing an old tune from childhood: "Jesus loves me, da da da". He began to have a ray of hope that something greater was out there. Off in the darkness he saw a pinpoint of light, like the faintest star in the sky. It began coming closer. The now brilliant light was a living being and it penetrated Howard's body. Ecstasy swept away his agony. The loving luminous being embraced Howard. This being knew Howard and everything about him. Howard felt unconditionally loved. The light was the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Christ Jesus the Savior. He had substance and was indescribably wonderful: goodness, power, knowledge, and love. He held me and caressed me like a mother with her baby. Next, they both rose upward, gradually at first, and then like a rocket - out of that detestable hell. Off in the distance Howard saw a vast area of illumination that looked like a galaxy with a great concentration of light in the center.
As Howard and Jesus approached he was permeated with tangible intense feelings and thoughts of love. He know that God loved him, God loved his creation, and that God was love. He felt like garbage, filthy rags, in the presence of the Holy One. Still countless light years away, Jesus called out in a musical tone to some of the luminous entities radiating from the great center.

Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:
* Foreigners are admitted into Mexico "according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress." (Article 32)
* Immigration officials must "ensure" that "immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance" and for their dependents. (Article 34)
* Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets "the equilibrium of the national demographics," when foreigners are deemed detrimental to "economic or national interests," when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when "they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy." (Article 37)
* The Secretary of Governance may "suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national interest." (Article 38)*
*Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned:
* Foreigners with fake immigration papers may be fined or imprisoned. (Article 116)
* Foreigners who sign government documents "with a signature that is false or different from that which he normally uses" are subject to fine and imprisonment. (Article 116)

This law will encourage mexicans not to cross the border by ______________________________________________.
Making it more doubtful that they will be able to stay, natch. Drug traffiking is poor comparison.
Burgeoning numbers of illegal Mexican immigrants prompted President Dwight D. Eisenhower to appoint his longtime friends, John Cox and General Joseph Swing, as INS Commissioner. According to Attorney General Herbert Brownell Jr., Eisenhower had a sense of urgency about illegal immigration upon taking office. In a letter to Sen. William Fulbright, Eisenhower quoted a report in The New York Times that said, "The rise in illegal border-crossing by Mexican 'wetbacks' (rooted from the watery route taken by the Mexican immigrants across the Rio Grande) to a current rate of more than 1,000,000 cases a year has been accompanied by a curious relaxation in ethical standards extending all the way from the farmer-exploiters of this contraband labor to the highest levels of the Federal Government."
Some 750 agents targeted agricultural areas with a goal of 1000 apprehensions a day. By the end of July, over 50,000 immigrants were caught in the two states. Around 488,000 illegal immigrants are claimed to have left voluntarily for fear of being apprehended. By September, 80,000 had been taken into custody in Texas, and the INS estimates that 500,000 to 700,000 had left Texas on their own. To discourage re-entry, buses and trains took many deportees deep within Mexico before releasing them. Tens of thousands more were deported by two chartered ships, the Emancipation and the Mercurio. The ships ferried them from Port Isabel, Texas, toVeracruz, Mexico, more than 500 miles (800 kilometers) to the south. Some were taken as far as 1,000 miles.
