If I recall correctly - and there's a chance that I do - Buzsaw believed that the serpent in the Garden of Eden was a dinosaur who lost his legs for deceiving Eve.

I remember him saying something like that. I forget who but someone kept trying to tell him that dinosaurs and snakes were not not simply different flavoured lizards but, well, I think we all remember how well fancy talk went down with ol' Buz.
Not quite the same place without him, though.

The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer.

Does a query (thats a question Stile) that uses this physical reality, to look for an answer to its existence and properties become theoretical, considering its deductive conclusions are based against objective verifiable realities.

It was worse. He believed that the dinosaurs went extinct because ALL of them were caught by the curse on the serpent. Little things like evidence and reason did not deter him.

Here. Usual spam about Obama, but with this interesting twist:
It is most clear that Obama, from birth, was the chosen destroyer of America. Believe what you want, but the large sea of facts support this, from the massive millions spent to hide all Obama's documents — falsifying his birth records, use of false social security cards, and hiding college records.
See, if you wondered why his birth was announced in Hawaiian newspapers, now you know. The plot went back that far. It all makes sense now.
But one thing still puzzles me. If it was all planned, why have him born in Kenya or Indonesia or wherever he's meant to have been born this week? Why not arrange for his mother to go into labor in the Lincoln Memorial, that would have made a great story.

Everyone knows the dinos went extinct because of cigarette smoking.

Got A Right One Here
Timothy Ray Murray, seeking the GOP nomination on the grounds that, unlike his opponents, he's not a robot.
Which to my suspicious ears sounds like the sort of thing a robot would say.
I wouldn't have included him if this was ordinary schizophrenia, 'cos that would be mean, but it looks just like the ordinary sort of madness you get from being conservative.

At Last Something We Can All Agree On
A State Senator from Kentucky has found something that nobody will dispute:
I don’t want to get into the debate about climate change, but I will simply point out that I think in academia we all agree that the temperature on Mars is exactly as it is here. Nobody will dispute that. Yet there are no coal mines on Mars. There are no factories on Mars that I’m aware of.
We live in an age where information is virtually free. But ignorance is completely free, and it has so many wonderful uses!

Holly Hobby Lobby
Let’s hold up a mirror!
I don't know if this person is part of the Hobby Lobby ownership family, but she did launch a fine piece of negative publicity for the company.
Which was followed up by someone else with:
The woman on the right was a Islamic suicide bomber.
I had a certain sympathy for the Hobby Lobby position, but if they want to start making themselves look like the Christian Taliban...

The cause-and-effect relationship between madness and conservatism is more of a chicken-and-egg thing, isn't it?

heh ... what a maroon ...
I don’t want to get into the debate about climate change, but I will simply point out that I think in academia we all agree that the temperature on Mars is exactly as it is here. ...
Actually Mars is - on average - colder than earth, so no, "acacemia" would not agree ...
... Yet there are no coal mines on Mars. There are no factories on Mars that I’m aware of.
Nor, curiously, would "academia" think that there are any living beings to make those items on Mars ...
What vacuous sphere of ignorance, what desert of intellectual verdure, what vacuum of education did he grow in?
Enjoy.

Re: Holly Hobby Lobby - wrong way flag
oh ... and she has the flag show incorrectly -- when the flag is behind the person the blue star portion (canton/union) should be on the person's (flag's) right side.
Faux patriotism.

That's if the flag is hanging on a wall or the like. This one is on a pole extending out from the front porch, so I'd say that it's mounted correctly, but by that technicality. Hanging displays must place the union in the upper left corner when viewed, a rule that is far to often violated by simply rotating the flag. Then of course that wouldn't work on the starboard side of a vehicle where the union is placed fore and not aft.
She should have at least had the picture taken from the other side so that it would have appeared more correct.
