Bin Laden blasts US for climate change
People of the world, it’s not right for the burden to be left on the mujahedeen (holy warriors) in an issue that causes harm to everyone, he said. Boycott them to save yourselves and your possessions and your children from climate change and to live proud and free.

Edited by AdminModulous, : deleted chunks what was basically a huge copy/paste of an entire blog entry and put it into quotes to make it clear it wasn't John's original words.
Edited by John 10:10, : Re-edited and included only Bin Laden's comments. Surely his comments are not copywrited!

Perhaps you could explain this to us...
I'm all ears.

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

Yes Of Course
Yes, Osama Bin Laden murdered thousands of American citizens in a vile act of terrorism.
Whereas Al Gore is just like him because ...
... oh, wait, he didn't.
The sheer extent of human stupidity depresses me so much. Please stop.

Tragedy or Comedy?
As usual, a once a week check is all it takes to observe the worst in people. I guess every vegetarian is Hitler, everyone who drinks is Stalin, and everyone who eats meat and drinks is Ben Franklin. (apologies to Godwin, but I must consider the probable limitations of the protagonist's ability to recognize a wide variety of historic individuals).
However, I must recognize the relationship between tragedy and comedy, and what a thin line there is between one and the other.
Thanks for the comedy, John 10:10, I will never take you even remotely seriously again. To me, unless you have some divine revelation concerning even the most rudimentary form of kindergarten logic, you will forever remain a joke.

The idea of the sacred is quite simply one of the most conservative notions in any culture, because it seeks to turn other ideas - uncertainty, progress, change - into crimes.

It is funny, I guess. Except that people like John 10:10 take it seriously.
We must always remember that Obama has a foreign sounding name and is not white. You can't argue with that.

I will try ONCE, but I don't expect any here at the EVC forum have ears to hear.
Bin Laden and Al Gore are now two peas in a pod because Bin Laden has jumped on the "man-caused" global warming band wagon.
Understanding what the 911 attack was all about has been missed/misunderstood by most Americans. Bin Laden is still trying to destroy American and other western nation economies by any and all means possible, and now he has jumped on the Copenhagen/global warming band wagon to do so. "Boycott them to save yourselves and your possessions and your children from climate change and to live proud and free."
If Ben Laden can wait a little longer, the American economy will crumble from within with progressive Obamaism ruining our economy.

Bin Laden and John 10:10 are two peas in a pod, because they both breath. So John 10:10 should stop breathing so as to clearly differentiate himself from Bin Laden.

Hi nwr, long time no see.
Bin Laden and John 10:10 are two peas in a pod, because they both breath. So John 10:10 should stop breathing so as to clearly differentiate himself from Bin Laden.
They are also peas in a pod for blaming science and knowledge for the changes in society, claiming that western society is corrupted away from the values of their religion/s.
They are also peas in a pod for being fundamentalist fanatics. John 10:10 is closer to Bin Laden than Gore in many ways.
Enjoy.

The argument of the OP is just silly. My reply was using a comparable argument as a way of pointing out it silliness.

Re: PS - Maybe now some will understand what 911 was all about!
I agree with nwr, we should keep this thread light, add some humor and stuffs. It's not like being reasonable is gonna help with the op, so we might as well have fun and at least John10:10 won't be under the delusion that his thread deserves any serious consideration.

Worse yet, Osama bin Laden is a threat on the other side of the world; as far as we can tell, folk like John 10:10 might just be our neighbors!
As far as I can tell, folk like John 10:10 are much more dangerous to freedom and liberty than any member of Al Qaeda *ducks sniper round*. The biggest difference between bin Laden and John 10:10 is how many followers they have.

Your theory may very well be true, but lets be honest here and admit that this is nothing more than unsubstantiated conjecture.
You don't like bin Laden or Al Gore, found some miniscule similarity and decided to draw parallels that otherwise have nothing to do with one another.
As RAZD wisely alluded to, you would likely find more similarity between bin Laden and say, someone like Jerry Falwell than you would bin Laden and Al Gore.
I say that not defending Al Gore in any way as I think the man is more concerned with his legacy than anything else.
But your comments seem loaded and a stretch of the imagination.

Oh, it's much worse than that.
President Obama and Hitler are now "two peas in a pod" because Obama has jumped on the "2 + 2 = 4" bandwagon. Sickening though it is, Obama actually believes that children should be indoctrinated into believing that 2 + 2 = 4 --- just like Hitler.

Since we're dealing with addition anyway....
Stalin and Pol Pot also believed this!
Meaning that Obama = Hitler + Stalin + Pol Pot
