Creationists are *WEIRD*

Look, I like weird people. Goth kids. Sci-fi geeks. Language nerds.

Weird people are far more interesting than, say, the ‘normal’ people that get cast for shows like ‘The Bachelor’: Generic Human #231975, Generic Human #576930, Generic Human #750193, bleh.

But theres a whole different level of weird, and that level is ‘Creationist’.

Example: Remember that guy, that Creationist that branded kids in his Ohio classroom? Had a whole system of weird signals and words and stuff he was brainwashing kids with?

Yes, that was weird, but now weve reached a level of weird only Creationists can hope to attain:

The caller purportedly told Freshwater that the school had discarded some documents in a dumpster at the high school and that the documents contained information that would exonerate him. Sometime during the night of the 4th or morning of the 5th, Freshwater, his lawyer R. Kelly Hamilton, and his pastor Don Matolyak are said to have gone through one or more school dumpsters, removing some documents and taking them to Matolyak’s church, Trinity Assembly of God, to go through them.

And then theres this bit of weird:

The materials were not in a dumpster at the high school, but were by a trash can in an area near it, in an “old black computer bag” inside a plastic bag. On top of the bag was a letter addressed to Freshwater. The police report does not contain the contents of that letter. The bag contained a 3″-4″ stack of papers and a “large number of photographs of items from John’s room.” It also contained three stopwatches, a whistle, and $45 in cash.

OH OF COURSE!

The famous ‘three stopwatches, a whistle, and $45 cash’ ruling, which states that it is perfectly legal to teach Creationism as science in public school classrooms! DUH!

Well, this changes everything. If there had been two stopwatches and two whistles, with a $50 Target gift-card, Freshwater would have been shit-outta-luck.

But three stopwatches, a whistle, and $45 cash? This changes everything. This completely exonerates Freshwater.

O.o

    I don’t see how photos of his classrom will somehow help him in this case either. There is no evidence that will show that he DIDN’T brand a kid with electrical equipment or DIDN’T teach creationism in science class. He’s all but admitted to doing both of those. Sounds like they are stalling and/or trying to create some weird conspiracy theory to get him off the hook.

    If you think creationists are weird, wait until you meet one of them environment nuts. I can see their God, Al Gore standing in front of a so called melting glacier with his staff in hand yelling ” YOU SHALL NOT PASS” while his master Osama Hopenchange fixes his eyes upon the crap and trade bill and mumbles to himself ” my preeeecious!”

    Now that’s weird. Nothing is weirder than a marxist leftist socialist tree hugger with a desire to sexually fornicate with the tailpipe of a Hummer before lighting it on fire.

    Leftists are weird. Especially the fornicators. They’ll fornicate with anything, before they protest it. I’ll bet they masturbate with Darwin’s picture, or the monkey’s picture, if you can tell the difference.

    Environazis are weird too. The IPCC lied and global warming died!

    Proposition 8 hailed, and the hompaths failed.

    Do you suffer from homopathic tendencies? Have you tried nohomoline? It is the only none FDA approved herbal rememdy to cure homopathicitis. Get your doctor to prescrivbe it for you today and turn your homo erectus into a hetero normalis. Free trials while offers last. Subject to change without notice.

    “HAHA you can’t spell, fag.”

    ——

    You, sir, are being intolerant and politically incorrect. You know that the far left marxist socialist nuts changed the word “fag” to homopath so that it would be more politically corect and not so confrontational. Besides homopath is now a medical term for perverted Sodomite homo.

    Heard of phsychopath or sociaopath, well now we have homopaths and many live in San Fransicko. There is a cure though. Nohomoline can cure the disease.

    If you are not sure if you are a chronic homopath, please check the diameter of your bunghole. Anyting between 3 and five 8 inches in diasmeter indicates you have hompathic tendecy that should be immediately reported to Homopathiccureologist. This disease circulates around San Fransick and the former cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and other places around the globe. Now there is a cure. try nohomoline free for thirty days. If your bunghole doesn;t shrink in thirty days, you may need to have a further discussion with your Homopathiccureologist.

    Epic fail.

    I do not have aids. I am not a homopath. However, Iran says they have a cure for AIDS now. Maybe they can share.

    Tyler DiPietro ,

    They also now have a cure for liberalpathic people too. It is called Normalcillan. I prescribe a dose of 166 grams of Normalcillal 25 times a day via suppository.

    Are you a deranged liberal who’s still stuck in 1967? Never fear, help is here. If you suffer from environmental anxieties and fear global warming is happening please call 1-800-IPCC-Lied. If you fear that so called gays are getting fair treatment becuase 6000 years of human hsitory and the Bible has condemed their personal lifestyle choice, then please call 1-800-Ilove-homos. If you fear that the healthcare scam will not et passed and marxist socialism will not be passed in America, pleae call 1-800-HELL-CARE.

    If you fear that Sarah palin is going to make militant man hating husband hating children killing feminist indoctrinated young girls turn into normal young women who care for their family and husband, please call 1-800-Ifear-Normalpeople.

    If you fear the church and fear thye Book of Genesis please call 1-800-Satan-Rules.

I think they are hiding from Barney Frank. I know I would be. It’s one thing to be hompathic, but to be a homopathic congressman that can’t speak one word of modern english is something else.

    No I am not a homopath. I am normal. AKA – pre 1960 sexual/drug/homo/hippy/commie/marxist/environut revolution. You know, normal American. We have to get that pre 1960 conservative mentality back in this country. These libs are murdering America. I feel like Cuba sometimes. Especially with socialist president Hussein Hopenchange screwing us over on the HELLthcare bill and the CRAP and Trade bill.

    That is probably what republicans do. I am not a Republican. I am a conservative.

    Why don;t you steal some money hide it in the freezer of your home. Then spill your stuff on a blue dress and lie about it under oath. Then you can rant and rave about the environment and so called global warming while leaving your private limo running for two hours and flying your private jet all over the world while condeming everyone else for doing the same thing. That’s what democrats do right? Why don;t you go steal from an honest hard working person and give the money to a lazy trashy drugged up hippy bum. That’s what democrats do right right? Spread the wealth around?

  40. #40 kharisym
    February 9, 2010

    So who saw me say I’m a democrat?

    MHC, I think you’re imagining things. Gays don’t have political affiliation because we don’t leave stuff on blue dresses (unless guys are wearing those blue dresses, and since any self-respecting cross dresser wears red, that means only conservatives wear blue. Did you want me to leave a stain on your blue dress?). We’re interior designers and nurses. We whine and whimper about broken nails and how *hot* that foreign guy with the mmmhmm accent looks in his armani- tone muscles, clean shave, and mmm I wanna meet his hair stylist!

    The rich gays also don’t own private jets, they’re too busy orchestrating the gay agenda and making sure our pink swastikas go well with our designer AK-47′s.

    It’s also important to note that gays don’t give money away. That’s why gay couples shouldn’t get married, because we don’t have kids and so all our money goes into throwing ornate orgies, decorating our homes, and making sure we have perfect complexions.

    kharisym,

    I think you forgot to mention being thrown into a lake of fire at some future event. I alos think you forgot to mention past events like Sodom and Gomorrah. You know they were destroyed completly for just what you are describing. Do me a favor and don;t stand too close to me. I do not wish to be struck down too.

    ——————-

    My palms are fine and have no writing on them. You got one thing wrong Islamofascists are not liberals and are not gay. At least they have a shred of sense left.

    By the way, kharisym, don’t let that middle astern man catch you imagining your fornication with him, you’ll be have your nuts cut off when he jihads you. Wait, too late.

    Seriously, have you ever taken testosterone to get yourself back to normal. Were you a victim of child abuse/rape? What happened to you in your life that made you decide to fornication with men rather than live as you were meant to – one man and one woman? God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve and certainly not Adam and Fido. Maybe that’s why leftists are so violently opposed to Genesis more than any other book. It is the foundation of the Christian religion. Without Genesis, the rest is not very good at all. Genesis explains so many things including human relationships and what’s wrong, right, and why.

    MHC, MHC, MHC! You’re showing your ignorance of gays. We *can’t* end up in a lake of fire because you have to have a soul to end up in hell. Unless you mean that gay dance club down the road called ‘Lake of Fire’ Mm, that place is hot.

    Also, you’re assuming things again? I said he had a sexy accent, but, being a conservative I can understand how you think a masculine, mid-eastern accent would sound sexy to you. No, Antuan is Brazilian, and he’s waiting for me to put on the leather chaps as I type- I certainly hope he ‘jihads’ me nice and deep tonight, mrrrowl!

    Does testosterone count if it’s injected in the mouth, using another man’s needle? If so, I take testosterone injections several times a week! I really like them. :-) And no, I was never a victim of child abuse and rape, here again you show your lack of knowledge about gays. I was recruited into the gay malitia from a proper Christian household when I was tempted by the incredible pleasure that is gay sex. After that I went through the standard training of all new gay recruits and stuck in a pod to ferment for 6 to 8 weeks, then given my first pair of armani shoes.

    Now I’m afraid Antuan is calling, I need to go for the evening. If you come and join us, I promise I won’t tell your friends. *wink* At the very least we can sign the standard conservative contract that I’m sure you’re well aware of, it’s the one that all conservatives sign when they’re engaging in promiscuous, back alley carnal acts with their gay lovers.

    kharisym,

    You are one sick twisted pervert. You have a soul. Looks like Satan got hold of it though. Yes that fire will be hot and it will be forver. Hope you enjoy your precisous fornication while it lasts. You’ll pay for it in the ends. Hope you don;t get AIDS or something.

    So after you betrayed your faith (which is another blasphemous atrocity) how did your parents take it? I assume they kicked you out of the house for good? I have a first cousin who is a lesbian. It looks real good at Christmas for two ugly fat white lesbian women to have a black kid there. I feel sorry for the kid. He can’t help it. I don;t know why they are allowed to come into the house like this. Everyone thinks its filthy and perverse but no one says anything. She was not a victim of abuse either. I assume she was bullied or just had demononic influence (like you). to persuade her over to the dark side.

    Re Hopey Changey

    Over at Jason Rosenhouses’ blog fuckface lying goat fucker Mr. Hopey Changey has charged that Charles Darwin was a slave holder. That of course is a fucking lie of monumental proportions and indicates that Mr. Changey is not only ignorant of science bur also of history.

    In the first place, slavery had been outlawed in Great Britain long before Darwin was born so he could not possibly have owned slaves. In the second place, Darwin was a well known and vocal opponent of slavery and was a strong supporter of the Union side in the US Civil War. In addition, he was part of a movement in Great Britain that was greatly responsible for opposing any intervention by the British Government on the side of the Confederate States. To paraphrase Richard Dawkins, anyone who claims that Charles Darwin was a slave holder or was a supporter of slavery is either ignorant, stupid, insane, or wicked and Mr. Changey is all of the above.

    MHC,

    I’m afraid I’m not sure how you know that. Do you take care of Satan’s paperwork? Okay, you got me, I did sell my soul to satan for that manicure one time, best nails I’ve ever had! That said, I sold my soul after I hatched from my gay fermentation pod.

    Clearly those lesbians you know aren’t real lesbians, they’re plants. We here at Gay Agenda Inc occasionally kidnap hapless victims and brainwash them into being something other than the standard rank and file, awesomely good looking people we usually are- It helps to throw off the conservative hound dogs. After all, I personally would never adopt a black child, you realize how hard it is to color match brown with pastel drapes?

    MHC, I’ve gotta tell you, last night was wonderful and I wish you could be there! Me and Antuan decided to do some role playing straight out of the Gay Agenda handbook. I was American Freedom, and Antuan was the big, pulsing gay agenda.

    SLC,

    Stop masturbating and listen. Darwin may not have exactly been a real slave owner, but his views oif black people rivaled the view that Hitler had of the Jews. Did you rread all of his books or just the delusion called origin of species. You knoiw, in another book, he slaughters the image of black people by putting them intellectually into the same category as apes and chimps. Darwin was a racist freak of nature. Now stop sniffing your own farts and pay attention.

  64. #64 Tyler DiPietro
    February 10, 2010

    “Stop masturbating and listen. Darwin may not have exactly been a real slave owner…”

    Let’s all have a casual disregard for the facts, it’s the American way!

    “Darwin may not have exactly been a real slave owner, but his views oif black people rivaled the view that Hitler had of the Jews.”

    LOL. Was Darwin’s view as influenced by reformation theologians as Hitler’s was? (Hint: look up “On the Jews and their Lies” by Martin Luther.)

    “You knoiw, in another book, he slaughters the image of black people by putting them intellectually into the same category as apes and chimps.”

    I’d ask you to cite the book and the passage where he does such a thing, but you’ve already admitted elsewhere that you don’t read.

    You know, MHC, if you really want a mind-trip you should try reading some of the things Abraham Lincoln said about black people. Like Darwin, his views would be considered extremely racist today, but were enlightened for the time period.

    Re Hopey Changey

    Here are some excerpts from letters that Darwin, one of the three most important scientists who ever live (along with Issac Newton and Albert Einstein) on the subject of slavery.

    It is known that Darwin, as well as his friends and family, were very much in favor of the Great Reform Act of 1832, which extended voting rights to millions of formally disenfranchised citizens. He was also a staunch supporter of the abolishment of slavery. Here are a few excerpts from letters Darwin wrote home while on the Beagle Voyage:

    “The Captain does every thing in his power to assist me, & we get on very well – but I thank my better fortune he has not made me a renegade to Whig principles: I would not be a Tory, if it was merely on account of their cold hearts about that scandal to Christian Nations, Slavery.”
    – To Revd. John Henslow 18 May 1832 from Rio de Janeiro.

    “What a proud thing for England, if she is the first European nation which utterly abolishes it. I was told before leaving England, that after in Slave countries: all my opinions would be altered; the only alteration I am aware of is forming a much higher estimate of the Negro character.”
    – To his sister, Catherine, on 22 May 1833 from Maldonado, Rio Plata.

    “It does one’s heart good to hear how things are going on in England. Hurrah for the honest Whigs. I trust they will soon attack that monstrous stain on our boasted liberty, Colonial Slavery. I have seen enough of Slavery & the disposition of the negros, to be thoroughly disgusted with the lies & nonsense one hears on the subject in England.”
    To John Herbert on 2 June, 1833 from Maldonado, Rio Plata.

    I think the comparison of Darwin with Hitler has to be the most despicable comment on this blog so far. But not surprising coming from Mr. Changey, a man who would fuck his mother if he knew who she was.

    Hitler was influenced by “survival of the fittest” ideology and he believed as Darwin did that one particular species was evolved more than another particular species, therefore they were superior. Sounds racist to me.

    I also agree with you, Darwin was certainly immoral. Any guy who can’t keep at least a minimally decent shave on the face is obviously a sub-moral individual. If only Darwin were gay, then perhaps this century would be more enlightened. The phylogenetic tree would’ve been in a nice beige instead of solid black, germ theory would be called that icky theory, and conservative would have probably evolved better complexions.

    1. Actually, Darwin never used the term survival of the fittest. That was the work of Herbert Spencer. Yet another instance of goat fucker Changeys’ ignorance. In addition, just for the information of Mr. Changey, Hitler was a creationist who rejected Darwins’ theory of evolution as did Joe Stalin who sent evolutionary biologists to the gulag for opposing the notions of his boy, Trofim Lysenko.

    Hitler, in a 4/12/1922 Reichstag speech:

    “My feeling as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them.”

    This “Hitler was a Darwin fan and not a Christian” idea is so batshit insane that only the batshit insane try to support it. It requires the claim that Hitler secretly was a fan of evolution but that he conspired to keep his views secret and to put on the impression to the rest of the world that he hated it.. for no clear reason.

    I mean look at the list of books banned by the nazis. You’ll find statements like this in the list of things that were forbidden:

    All writings that ridicule, belittle or besmirch the Christian religion and its institution, faith in God, or other things that are holy to the healthy sentiments of the Volk.

    Or how about this:

    Writings of a philosophical and social nature whose content deals with the false scientific enlightenment of primitive Darwinism and Monism

    So basically he was a big time Darwin supporter atheist who instead only wrote about his support for Christianity and worked to prevent his people from reading anything that criticized Christianity or anything that supported Darwin.

    Some might call that a rather irrational conclusion given the available information.

    Regarding the Freshwater story.. it gets even weirder. It was a late night rendezvous at the trash can, and the pastor feared his life was in danger and called in the support of a friend with a concealed weapon permit in case of potential foul play.

    This is the hypocrisy of the creationist position in these matters. The record is that the opponents to the creationism are the ones that receive death threats, but the creationists have this need to feel persecuted so they end up fearing for their own lives despite the total lack of any sort of threat whatsoever. I’m just glad that the area was apparently deserted at the time they went, I can easily imagine this farce becoming even more involved by the armed friend being startled by something and accidentally shooting an innocent bystander.

    But the pastor didn’t feel that the situation warranted contacting the police yet, according to him it was merely a fact finding mission. He only contacted the police after the material was recovered on advice of Freshwater’s lawyer, advice that may turn out to have been rather smart because it’s sounding like the stuff was stolen from the school, including the money.

    And for the record apparently Freshwater did not take part in this little adventure. The initial rumor was that he had, but the official report is that he was out of town at the time so he called his pastor and asked him to do it for him.

    Unfortunately, I have admit that Mr. Hopey Changey may not be entirely incorrect relative to Hitlers’ views on religion. As many have pointed out, in public and in his writings, there is no question that Hitler professed to be a believing Christian and gave his professed religious beliefs as a partial reason for his dislike of Jews. On the other hand, there is evidence that, in private, Hitler was contemptuous of religion in general and Christianity in particular. He is even quoted by Albert Speer as once stating that the Shintoism practiced in Japan would have been a better fit for the German people then Christianity. However, since much of the evidence of his private views were supplied by Martin Bormann, who is not considered a very reliable source, this is,perhaps, somewhat problematic. Thus, at best, I think we are not in a position to determine what Hitlers’ actual religious views were.

    On the other hand, there is no evidence that Hitler accepted Darwins’ theory of evolution in private and, in fact, in all his public speeches and writings there can be no doubt that he was a creationist and rejected the Darwinian theory of evolution, just as Joe Stalin did (although Stalin rejected Darwins’ theory for different reasons as he accepted the Lamarckian explanation). Hitlers’ view was that the German people were a superior race not because of evolution but because they were created superior. However, there can also be no doubt that his antisemitic views derived not from Darwin but from Martin Luther, rather fine considering that Hitler was a baptized Catholic.

  80. #80 Stephen Wells
    February 11, 2010

    SLC: Leaving aside the difficulties of knowing exactly what was happening inside Hitler’s head, and noting as you have that his public output was professedly Christian, we should remember that he was speaking to an audience largely of Lutherans and Catholics, and their religion didn’t seem to prevent their being Nazis or attempting to commit genocide.

    Anyway, somebody claiming that evolutionary theory made them kill people is like somebody claiming that gravitational theory made them throw people off cliffs; it’s got sod-all to do with science.

    I would agree with Mr. Wells that, as a practical matter, whatever was going on inside his head, Hitler was preaching to the choir when he addressed largely Christian audiences. Perhaps he was like Ms. (Mr.) Ann Coulter in this regard who has been described by a former gentleman friend as someone who does not believe 90% of the crap that comes out of her mouth and word processor.

    “On the other hand, there is evidence that, in private, Hitler was contemptuous of religion in general and Christianity in particular.”

    Sort of….

    He was contemptuous of its application and critical of the lack of exploitation of its power by the state.

    Hitler took confession and public communion until 1918 then from 1918 to 1924 everything is sketchy. After rising to power he had scheduled visits with priests that correspond with mass so like other catholic head of state there is every indication he took confession and communion privately.

    Both his public and private relationship with the roman catholic church is fairly clear considering church leaders were the confessors of his confessor and they set about carving his face on baptismal fonts.

    When people write about Hitler they always want to attach the weirdest extremes they can.

    He was a plain Roman Catholic.

    He was just somewhat superstitious.

    He was a slightly above average representational landscape painter.

    He didn’t smoke because it made his lungs hurt but didn’t make a big deal about it and gave out cigarette cases as gifts and kept cigarettes and lighters in all his homes.

    He wasn’t a vegetarian. Meat made him immediately gassy so he didn’t eat it in front of other people.

    He didn’t drink for the same reason.

    He liked apple juice.

    He was sexually repressed.

    He was painfully self conscious.

    He was a monster but he was also very mundane. When people try to make him into whatever they are mad at or make him the opposite of whatever they like they just sound like idiots.

    Of course Hitler wasn’t a Darwinist. Hitler didn’t care about science. He was interested in art, politics and classics. Plato (The Republic) was Hitler’s go-to-guy on eugenics.

    Creationists have no clue because they read history for ammunition instead of content (which means they don’t read history at all).

    Re Prometheus @ #83

    He was sexually repressed.

    Actually, he was very likely a sexually repressed homosexual. One of the rumors about him is that he contracted Syphilis from a male prostitute while living in a hostel in Vienna. I think it is clear that he was suffering from tertiary Syphilis during the war and probably from Parkinsons disease. He was also addicted to speed and received the substance in vitamin shots every morning from his quack physician.

    Of course Hitler wasn’t a Darwinist. Hitler didn’t care about science. He was interested in art, politics and classics. Plato (The Republic) was Hitler’s go-to-guy on eugenics.

    That’s true of pure science but Hitler was fascinated with war technology, particularly tanks, aircraft, missiles, and battleships. His support of Guderian and the armored warfare proponents was greatly responsible for the early success of the German armed forces.

    He was contemptuous of its application and critical of the lack of exploitation of its power by the state.

    That’s probably why he told Albert Speer that Shintoism would have been a better religious choice for Germany. Someone who preferred Shintoism doesn’t seem like much of a Roman Catholic.

    “Someone who preferred Shintoism doesn’t seem like much of a Roman Catholic.”

    The only Shinto practice he was familiar with was State Shinto which was a perfect nationalistic fascist religious system.

    The principal political failing of Catholicism as part of his totalitarian ideal was that Catholicism already had a state and a head of state (not Germany and not him).

    The observation applied to organization not the respective belief systems belief.
