Re: a better analogy ...
ahahahaaa, I thought someone would quibble that. but can you do one and not the other?
and to do a proper check you should come at the issue from a different angle instead of repeating the same process.

IPU website
this just in:
Etsy - Your place to buy and sell all things handmade, vintage, and supplies
The "believers" famous sayings about faith in the invisible pink unicorn is that, like other religions, it is founded in science and faith. Science - that states that she must be invisible, since we cannot see her. Faith - because we know in our heart that the invisible pink unicorn exists. This is of course a parody of the theological reasoning of other religions.
Heck there's more proof for the IPU than ID ...
(disappointing logo imho, and how can you have a good religion without a good icon logo ....)

ctrl+alt+del
i read a geeky webcomic regularly called "control alternate delete" or some variation of the "three finger salute." it's nerdy as hell, and sometimes downright surreal. today's comic, well...

The germ theory of disease
My question to IDists and creos.
Why only go after the theory of evolution? Why not also go after the germ theory of disease?
The germ theory of disease replaced the age old explanation for plagues, like the bubonic plagues. People felt that god had a purpose to wipe out a good portion of Europe's population with the black death. Isn't it insulting to you guys that they have taken god out of the equation and has offered a completely natural explanation for why people get sick?
I say if we are to teach ID and creationism in the science classroom, we might as well teach school children that god is punishing them or testing them whenever they get sick and that people suffering from epidemics are not worthy in god's eyes. I think that's a pretty good alternative explanation right there.

Pay attention at the back - it was Ticino in Switzerland (actually I thought it was Italy until your post prompted me to check! ).
One day the evil infidels of the BBC will face the wrath inflicted by his His Noodly Appendage for this blasphemy.

I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Nay not FSM but Cthulhu!
well being from the mighty state of kansas, i find the FSM a great idea
but instead of putting myself down as a FSM follower
i'm going to list myself as a follower of the great Cthulhu!
i shall start my great quest to convert all the christians to cthulhuian
then have them all sacraficed in his name!
edit: ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!

Re: Nay not FSM but Cthulhu!
Cthulhu is all well and good, but it is well known even within his cult that Cthulhu was not the only God and certainly not the primary God of creation.
Remember Azathoth is said to be the entity at the center of the Universe a wild chaotic being with many tendrils licking out to do what it will. Clearly a description of spaghetti if I ever heard one. Meanwhile Gods and other beings circle it in awe, playing music to it, much as minstrels can be found circling your own pasta dinner at finer italian restuarants... and indeed just as maddening.
Of course the name is itself not certain and can easily be explained. When the mad abd al'azred remarked on the magnificent splendor he was experiencing to a fellow sojourner who was currently dining at the center of creation. With a mouthful of succulent deity his companion uttered what Abd mistook for "Azathoth!", but was in fact " 'at's the sauce!"

Re: Nay not FSM but Cthulhu!
You're all deluded. It has been revealed to me that the FSM is a fasle god perpetrated by Nyarlathotep. He has been observed buying up stock in major Italien pasta manufacturers, and is hoping (as ever) to make a killing...
