So, bnw, are you saying that yes, man made global warming is going on, but it’s a good thing because it will help stave off the next ice age?

Not so fast… Maybe he is still secretly a Ram, and will intentionally sabotage the Pats D this week.

Or maybe he is a spy, but doesn’t realize it: During warm ups, Fisher will whisper, “Rosebud” into his ear. Then, during halftime adjustments, he’ll stuff Bellecheck into a locker, and then have no waking memory of doing so.

Either option, let’s leave him up there until after the game, just in case….

4-7 suits them well.

Like some expensive French cologne that costs a lot but smells awful.

I think I called it in the “can they beat the Saints” tread that I was a feared this would be the first of many blowout losses.

Hang on to your hats.

I’d vote to kill the animals AND the humans, on the off hand chance that the being making the demand was that pesky godling the Jews invented, the one that wanted Abraham to kill his only son.

He has a history of waffling, and if I called his bluff and said, “Kill the animals and the people”, maybe he’d relent and spare us all. Though he’d probably want at least one Ram; Case Keenum, maybe?

I was going to quote the minister from Caddy Shack after he got hit by lightning, “There is no God!” but decided to be more general.

Before I swore off gods of all types, I was a fan of the Norse gods. I liked Tyr in particular. He was the bravest, and put his hand in Fenris the wolf’s mouth when he was bound. Once the wolf realized he had been tricked, he bit Tyr’s hand off.

I thought that was a lot cooler than all the “Prince of Peace” crap the nuns were preaching. Maybe I’m a pagan. Definitely a heathen…

Religion in 4 words?

“There are no gods”

bnw: I think I liked you better when you didn’t have an avatar.

NMR, what is your avatar? Is that the big, red button that should be never pushed (but the one the Donald wondered out loud why we don’t push it)?

Almost looks like the eye of a Dalek to me…

You know what swings it for me?

The fact that the Republicans have to kowtow to the religious Christian right.

I was raised Catholic, and endured 12 years of Catholic schooling. I no longer claim to be Catholic or christian any more.

This country was founded on many great principles, not the least being separation of church and state.

X, you state one of the main reasons you voted for Trump was because of worries about Clinton’s Supreme Court nominations. Trump states he wants his appointees to overturn Roe v. Wade. You’re OK with that? Why?

I don’t think you have a uterus, I know I don’t; why do you think old white men need to control what goes on there?

All that being said, ZN, who do you REALLY want to take over after Fisher?

Real Time.

Really, really missed it last night. Silly of HBO not to have it on more often running up to the election.

For a quick YOUtube fix, Flying Circus skits usually do the trick.

I consider myself an everyday american (especially when it comes to flossing, and by that I mean once every two weeks). Nothing about Trump tells me he is going to keep us out of war. In fact, I think he would be more apt to get us into wars than most who has held the office. Especially stupid wars (which I know is an oxymoron).

Why do Trump supporters think that HRC hates the average american? Was it her push for universal health care when she was First Lady? I guess it all comes down to how you define “everyday american”.

When the dust clears from this election, and we get some historical perspective, it will be very interesting to see if this was the last stand of 20th century Baby Boomer politics. By 2020, whites probably aren’t going to be in the majority and more and more of the old guard will be dead.

I’m thinking (hoping) we’ll tread water from now until 2020 and elect a true progressive then. Of course, the Trump blue print is going to be honed and there may very well be a very strong populist / fascist contender. Just hoping the demographics will have shifted enough by then to swing the vote to the progressive.

Robert Anton Wilson had a very low opinion of Carl Sagan.

Just saying…
