Re: Almost Speechless
Upon reading this astonishing pean to a form of willfull ignorance ...
Does this really shock anyone? This is Faith we're talking about. For all my love of the woman she is, after all, the intellectual equivalent of brain dead. Though, to be honest, a devout christian not being familiar with the word eucharist is quite hard for my poor brain to comprehend. Surprise, maybe, but no shock here. She has got to be a blonde.

"Brain dead." Hm.
Not brain dead, M'lady. Intellectually brain dead. There is a difference.
Someone who is brain dead says:
Someone who is intellectually brain dead says:
The Earth was made by my version of god who made all life on it by blowing his nose at it. And then there was a world-wide flud that killed everything and settled the mud and bones into the different layers all over the world and the geologic column proves it and all of science and scientific facts that say otherwise have got to be wrong because my bible is the only true source of all knowledge so my personal reasoning of how everything musta happened is far superior to the hundreds of thousands of scientists that have studied these thing for centuries.
See the difference?
The brain dead person really doesn't have much to say about anything while the intellectually brain dead person says silly things that defy critical thinking based on known reality relying, instead, on blind faith in old myths that make them feel warm and fuzzy in the head.
You have a strong vocal elevator, Faith, it just doesn't go all the way up to the top.
