Bertrand Russell’s Celestial Teapot
“Many orthodox people speak as though it were the business of sceptics to disprove received dogmas rather than of dogmatists to prove them. This is, of course, a mistake.”
“If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes.”
“But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense.”
“If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.”

As Curious As Alice: What kind of fuckery is this?
Personal rant / unpopular opinion is about to go down right now.
Why is it that all the people on my Facebook timeline can post bible scripture, Ellen White passages, Christian songs that they like, and show their support for political figures whom support their religious ideas but since I am…
Hell why not have fun with it… they post a passage post a passage countering it… i enjoy doing that… a female posts a bit of scripture i toss out the one saying women should not preach… some one puts a big splurge of prayers i give them one that says keep it personal and private… you can literally find a contradiction to everything they can find so have fun with it….and i promise you, half of them wont even read it clearly the first time and will just start to be all happy that you are “returning to the faith” till you get them to actually read it…then they will be really pissed and you can laugh away
Israel / Palestine topic
Well was having a nice little discussion with a person on the subject of Israel and Palenstine… He was an ardent supporter of the the palenstinian front and automatically blamed any and all wrong doing on israel… And that is where i had a problem.
Israel is not a saint, they have done some seriously fucked up things and violated dozens of international laws, and human rights violations our that ass…but they are not alone in this. Israel is not the good guy in this conflict, but neither is the palestinian people… That is one major problem with this whole thing, people are trying to take one side or the other…there should be no side taken on this except that of peace.
Both should be getting reprimanded by the international community, both should be pushed to compromise, and both should take their current leaderships and throw them in the dumpster…Fatah is powerless, and Hamas is a religious zealotry bent on the destruction of israel for being israel… Current government in Israel is consistent of the ultra orthodox crazy bastards that refuse to budge on anything but what they want… Screw them both.
If Rabin and Arafat can sit down and damn near get this whole process hammered out in 1993 then why the hell are we sitting here in 2012 and still have zero peace? if it is not 1 side it is the other that just keeps fucking the shit up. So i came up with an idea for resolving this…. There will be no Israel, there will be no Palenstine…make it the Confederate State of FUBAR, or something a bit more politically correct. Have the leadership set up a secular, democratically elected governing body with equal rights and freedoms for all…and then poof no more reason to claim it is their land not the others…it is both of your lands smile be happy and shut the fuck up with all the damn fighting for some shitty dirt.
President Obama calls student attacked by conservatives to see if she is okay
Excerpt:
President Barack Obama on Friday phoned the Georgetown University law student who was called a “slut” by Rush Limbaugh to find out if she’s OK.
“He encouraged me and supported me and thanked me for speaking out about the concerns of American women,” the third-year Georgetown University law student said. “And what was really personal for me was that he said to tell my parents that they should be proud. And that meant a lot because Rush Limbaugh questioned whether or not my family would be proud of me. So I just appreciated that very much.”

My respect for President Obama just went up about ten points.
Rush Limbaugh, shut the f up, I hate you.
