Fishbone–I don’t know either. I was just having such a great time back in Tampa away from this fundie hotbed I live in and it was just as if I was being followed or something…..lol….like those kids in “Jesus Camp” standing on the streets with their propaganda.

Oh and yes, I did live in Kansas during the evolution nonsense, and yes, there were enough of us unwilling to look like fools to allow that to go further. But then I lived in Lawrence, one of the saner spots in the state (well, to me).

The shock of the paving stone was to find it in Ybor City in Tampa, Florida.

I really don’t know why that would shock you. I’ve lived in and around Tampa for most of the last 23 years, and that kind of shit lost its ability to surprise me by 1986. There are a lot of dumbasses out here – probably whoever bought that stone lives out in Valrico.

The interviewer did defend “Islamic science” of the Golden Period, when they developed the scientific method, algebra, optics, etc. well before the European Renaissance. Reading comprehension is not one of Mr. Spade’s strengths, apparently.

Objective–you’ve never had to drive through much of the Midwest, have you? They already have billboards up. No need for handwritten. The shock of the paving stone was to find it in Ybor City in Tampa, Florida.

Hysterical, I’m all for it!

In all fairness to Ace, he probably watches a lot of O’Reilly and thinks that when interviewing someone, instead of asking them questions, you are supposed to simply scream “SHUT UP!!!” and call them names.

And I bet most 2 year olds would agree.

I’m not saying Ace is akin to a 2 year old. Thats giving him too much credit. 2 year olds aren’t scared of Play Doh like Mr. Spades.

I’m sure Ace now takes great comfort in his repeated F’s in Algebra, since that subject is now clearly anti-American.

Well, grafitti in bathroom stalls are quite effective guerilla marketing techniques, too.

A paving stone? This is how they’re spreading their message, …?

There going to blow the campaign wide open with hand-lettered plywood signs tacked to poles and stanchions along major traffic routes.

I say in the name of multiculturalism, we adapt the Ancient Egyptian creation myth. The World was created when Amun masturbated, and that’s final!

[...] And in any event, an interviewer’s questions totally proves that all liberals are looking for an Islamic version of creation [...]

I just found a paving stone that some group PAID to have ingraved here in Tampa Florida that reads “Evolution–The Opiate of the Uninformed”.

A paving stone? This is how they’re spreading their message, by engraving things on paving stones?

Now I have to go to your page and see.

I hope that ace never stops writing. If it weren’t for his contributions, things like

I knew it! The vagina is a bio-mechanical horror made of clay and pork!

would never have come into existence. And my days would be sadder indeed.

“Evolution–The Opiate of the Uninformed”

It’s so dreamy and comforting to think about the death of the malformed as a natural pro…zzzz…whu? Nodded off for a second there.

Why have I decided to put myself through this again?

Because we have to mock them over here so we don’t have to mock them over there!

Hey, Christian conservatives? You want to win your creationism cases? Start bringing in Muslim creationists. And watch your liberal opponents suddenly finding it much more plausible that God — or, rather, Allah — created the earth, the animals, and humans directly.

Uh…Mr. O’Spades? The Kansas Kangaroo Court tried that already and it didn’t work.

We (and by “we”, I unfortunately really do mean “we” because I was a Kansas taxpayer at the time) collectively paid to bring Mustafa Akyol, a Muslim creationist and spokesperson Bilim Arastirma Vakfi, to Kansas. The aforementioned cult has a lot of clout despite the conviction and two-year prison sentence of its ringleader, Adnan Okhtar (pen name “Harun Yahya”) for blackmail.

The citizens of Kansas were not receptive to becoming a national laughingstock for the second time in a decade, so they voted in a rational majority at the next available opportunity.

Can you blame Ace? When your archetypal interviewer is Hugh Hewitt, it’s understandable that an interview which actually probed the views of the other side would be an alien concept.

Everyone knows the best way to push Islamic creationism is to interview someone who is opposed to Islamic creationism, then ask them a softball question about Islamic creationism and give them the opportunity to shoot it down with extreme prejudice. Duh!

This reminds me of the wingnut I know who, back in spring of 2003, said that Hans Blix was “hiding” evidence of Saddam Hussein’s weapons programs. “Hiding it where?” I asked. “In the report he delivered to the UN on live, worldwide television” was the answer (I’m paraphrasing).

Why have I decided to put myself through this again?

So the rest of us don’t have to, and we truly thank you for it.

I’m waiting for the fundies to find a verse in the Bible that will become the basis for a new campaign to remove the teaching of Newton’s work and gravity from public schools. Why not? They’re out on the flimsy limbs already. Hey, it’s not gravity, it’s GOD…..ugh. I have NO idea how to link this, but I just found a paving stone that some group PAID to have ingraved here in Tampa Florida that reads “Evolution–The Opiate of the Uninformed”. In the Midwest, it never shocks me anymore. But down here? Honestly. At any rate, the pic is up at my site. Swipe it. Use it. Keep these fundies in the spotlight of insanity.
