xD I remember that show

The spork is quite a much dangerous weapon, most inductive to the fact that the physical impossibility of said object is due to cause the harmed user's head to explode whilst being stabbed with said weapon.

Agreed. I think we need to ban everyone as well.


Edit: in order to not be a douche:

Have about 25 questions or so.

Randomly generate 5 for the quiz.

I don't have the programming skills nor have I read the thread, but there is a way to do it

There's also something called "making everything up".

The Lounge / WIRED: The Crusade Against Religion
« on: November 30, 2006, 06:22:27 PM »
He means you didn't have to put it in bold...but in a very...obscure way.

imho, religion is BS. Completely.

Knight, what do you define as proof that matter/energy exists? Energy is in...everything. If you deny that exists, I don't know what you've been doing your entire life. Read the side of an energy bar, mayhaps.

If you deny that matter exists, then what is an atom?


Unless I'm reading the question wrong, in which case I refute my argument.

(although, alcoholism isn't a disease, it's bullshit, as been proven by the show :D)


I love Pen & Teller, but TV shows can't prove everything.  Why don't they tell my dead grandfather that he did not have a disease?  The man drank himself to death.

Anyway.  Everyone else here is right, "Sara".  Sugar is an essential need, and artificial sweeteners are even more dangerous.  At the cell level, Glucose (which other sugars are transformed into during digestion) is needed for respiration.  No sugar, cells die--you die.

Not to mention, a large portion of the population is allergic to artificial sweeteners (my ex included--she's even allergic to Splenda), and they all taste like shit anyway.


It's an addiction, if anything.

By "drank to death", you could either mean, he died of alcohol posioning, or was drinking close to when he died "of old age"

Flat Earth Q&A / lolproof

How many of us feel like it? :P

This argument has been used over and over again, without people searching first, and just instincively creating topics.

1) Add this to the FAQ, as "Void 'evidence'"
2) Add a part to the rules that says if there is a similar topic less than 2 weeks old, your topic gets locked.

Edit: that's actually a really nice lake.

Well being drunk is better than an alcoholic (although, alcoholism isn't a disease, it's bullshit, as been proven by the show :D)

An alcoholic is a drunk in denial xD

beast, that was confusing. You hate someone for having pulp out, but then choose to hate everyone else with?

XD


Anyways, it's a biologically proven fact that sugar is required for the human body to function.

Therefore, this argument = fail.

I am implying, therefore, that there is no such thing as proof online (Well...not really. There are exceptions).

Basically it means what Beast has said is unprovable. Therefore, there is no reason to have this thread.

Internet names are not overvalued, though - as a member becomes more well known and respected (Although do you ever see respect here? I mean other forums.), the internet name is thus not overvalued, it has a use.

It feeds the ego.

The Lounge / Katrina in retrospect
« on: November 28, 2006, 04:36:17 AM »
It just shows a better understanding of the criminal's thought processes.

Could I not "impersonate" a member of your parliament? (Assuming that I am related to him/her, in order to impersonate to the fullest efficiency)

You should all know by now, a name on the internet means absolutely nothing.

Now they just need to invent a laser that turns Britney Spears into Arcturus.


That would be hard; perhaps they should set a more manageable goal first, like turning N'Sync into Rhapsody.


With the metaphorical level N'Sync has, they have no chance to match Rhapsody's metaphorical level. There's no way scientists could do it.

Well, oops. I posted in the wrong topic.

My same thoughts as in the last post in the "In retrospect of Katrina" thread, in which you posted your original "sleuthing".

The Lounge / Katrina in retrospect
« on: November 28, 2006, 04:25:03 AM »
There's also simple impersonation. SHBR could have already been doing this so called "sleuthing" work.

by following the same line of "logic":

if I were to sign up as some sort of wanted criminal's name, but change around the name slightly, this would make me the criminal.



I'm not following.

The Lounge / Atheism is not a belief.
« on: November 15, 2006, 02:25:56 AM »
There's the stereotypical view of atheists, who aren't skeptics, but cynics.

There's also atheists who are skeptics.

this is in reference to dysfunction's first post here.

Simply because you can't understand it doesn't make it retarded.

Besides, the word retarded is a fundamentally wrong insult. Retarded comes from "mentally retarded", which means to be held back mentally.

So, the argument's being held back? Well, stop holding the fucking dam already!

The Lounge / God does not exist
« on: November 07, 2006, 05:00:24 PM »
You're arguing a moot point that can't be "truely" proven 100%.

Just like BOG not giving evidence and making one post trolls.

Because you're above the cloud line, and of course - the first step into believing is remove all evidence. Like not being able to see, for example

The poll states that 100% of the people on this forum are non-religious rEarthers.    :lol:


It does?  I could have sworn this forum had more than five members.

You're site admin here and you didn't vote that you think that the world is flat?


He doesn't have to agree with the site in order to moderate it.

There was already a poll done on who was and who wasn't RE or FE. Half the moderators aren't. They're there to keep the site under control from rampaging idiots about the forum. They're not there to defend the beliefs.

It's also pretty stupid to assume things and to stereotype like that.

But if you wanna be an asshole, by all means go and do it.

Bet you're racist too.

My mental health has nothing to do with your fallacious diagram of the sun not being a spotlight.


The sun isnt a spotlight fuckwit, it IS a gigantic ball of fire.


Ok? Go the fuck over there you fucking douchebag shithead and fucking take a picture of the fucking sun you fucking asswipe cocksucker.

That's more like flaming, than your lame-ass 'flame'.

Stronzo di merda.

1) The site is not owned by you, nor the United States Government

Which, therefore, means:

Your "Freedom of Speech" holds jack shit value here.

2) This site is owned and run by the Administrator. He sets HIS rules, and you follow them
3) You have no right whatsoever to make up rules about being allowed to flame.

It's easy not to flame and troll. But why not do it when you're so obviously an elitist?

Have they disappeared in the last few years and never come back?

It takes a shrewd amount of logic to deem that you're trying to insinuate something, Cheech.

Quote from: "TheEngineer"
I fly all the time and have never seen the curvature of the earth.


That's Aristotle-ism. I see, therefore it's real.

In order to understand reality, we must question what we see - our senses decieve us.

if! for example, there were a sphere. and it were to spin along its axis, placed in the middle of this sphere.

BUT! It were to be orbiting around some object, and it would spin while orbiting.

Now, suppose we're far below this 'some object'. It would appear to go back and forth then straight across the sky. IT'd then disappear for a bit then come back :\

Does this mean that the object, from our observations, must have an erratical path? No. It means we first have to attempt to rationalize that what we see may, or may not be true.
