OK...We've been hearing and hearing about the dogs...seen pictures. But, we need video. You are telling us the truth about these wild exploits aren't you?  |

Different slant? Possibly attributing natural disasters to an unprovable deity? No wonder you watch Faux News. Thanks for coming out anyway, scooter.

Ummm... there IS a differnce between a editorial style opinion discussion vice news headlines. I watch Foxnews and have never seen anything like that reported as actual news. As a check, consult their website - no stories that aren't really being reported anywhere else, like CNN and MSNBC, just a different **ahem*** slant to them. At least that's my take.

when people ascribe the height of goodness to this Being, they set up the inscrutable nature of his wisdom as the refuge by which the doctrine escapes the charge of absurdity.
And what you were seeing on that broadcast was precisely the type of absurdity he was referring to...
so that's how they got away with it!
DAMN YOU SCHOPENHAUER!!

I'm watching the Fox Master-Control feed here at work, and as I type, they have a LIVE panel of "experts" gathered together discussing "whether or not all the natural disasters the world has experienced lately are a message from God"
Live on the news. Four fucking adults, AND THEY'RE SERIOUS!! Who the fuck clears this bullshit for live news??
One of my favorite quotes is from Arthur Schopenhauer, who said:
That a Being, at once almighty and all-good, should create a world of torment is always conceivable; even though we do not know why he does so; and accordingly we find that when people ascribe the height of goodness to this Being, they set up the inscrutable nature of his wisdom as the refuge by which the doctrine escapes the charge of absurdity.

I think Jude Law would be a great bond if he put on about 20 pounds.
Maybe 5 pounds. The James Bond of the books was six foot even and 150 lbs; he was a very slender guy.
I'm disappointed that Jude Law didn't get it. Ewan MacGregor would've been my second choice. Even still, Daniel Craig could be very good; he definitely has the cold, hard, emotionless look that is integral to my image of James Bond.

yeh i remember those little motorized handhelds - that shit was retarded
i actually owned a very little known gaming system called the Vectrex... which used the rare (and so very 80s) vector graphics - like those old Star Wars arcade machines where you would fly through the alleys on the death star... each game came with a colored plastic screen you would put over the monitor, to give the illusion of color - hehe
i came home from college once and decided i wanted to play it, and found out my parents had sold the damn thing without even asking me - pissed me off big time

Just had a conversation with a guy in our office who is in his early 20's - funny to hear about gamers who never touched Tempest, Defender, pong, etc, etc, or were even aware that such games existed....
It's strange, innit? Now, I'm a little older than my early twenties, but I remember playing 'Asteroids' on an arcade machine that looked like a table. Is that old?
When I try to explain to my brother and my sister that when I was a kid, you could rent movies on something called 'beta', I get blank stares.
LOL! Yeah, I also used to love table-top Defender back in my day
Anyone remember those really early handhelds that were just motorized scrolling plastic backgrounds, and a little race car on a stick that you steered side-to-side?
My 16yr old cousin actually said "That's wak" when I told him about those... I nearly choked to death laughing at that one!

They have been doing it much more, but playing Devil's advocate, CNN has run that idea more than a few times in the past few days.
The best was the pastor on Fox who was saying it was God's will, a punishment against all the gays and gamling in NO.
But both (or more - I only really watch those two) have been doing it.
Wow. Well if they're all reporting it as "news", that's just appalling.
I personally love many many Americans, but that country is just so fucked in the head right now it's unbelievable.
(Halsy -- I like Foucault - think it was - on the state of literature ((but substitute 'literature' for whatever you're currently ragging on)): "literature is so like an old whore that we must dose her up with mercury pills and clean her out; she has been so ultra-fucked by filthy pricks." Nice and versatile, that one)
I guess I'm realizing how thankful I am for my trusty rabbit-ears and near total lack of interest in TV, but just for kicks I think I'll watch the MCS feed from CNN tomorrow and see what other gems of the journalistic arts I've been missing out on..

Anne Rice said it best through Lestat, "God kills indiscriminately, and so shall we."
or Hannibal Lecter...
“God dropped a church roof on 34 of his worshipers in Texas Wednesday night — just as they were groveling through a hymn. Don’t you think that felt good? Why shouldn’t killing feel good? It must feel good to God — He does it all the time, and are we not made in his image?”
With friends like that, who needs enemies?
Or maybe, just maybe, Stephen Crane was right....
"A man said to the Universe, 'Sir, I exist.' 'However that may be', came the reply, 'that fact, has not in me, created a sense of obligation'."
This rock has seen 5 or 6 extinction level events, and we're not through seeing the end of them by any stretch in the 10 billion or so years our solar system has left. So even if there was a god or gods, what good is he/they?

I remember thinking that George Lazenby was great in In Her Majesty's Secret Service when I saw it age 16 or something. Saw it again recently and could see how much Lazenby lacked both Connery's and Moore's finesse and humor. I did still like how that story was more serious. It added to the realism and to how I cared about Bond's fate.
Moore was ok, but he went on a bit too long...

But both (or more - I only really watch those two) have been doing it. It is a problem, though, especially for the zealots. On a religious basis, you can twist everything to your view (God loves you, God is punishing you, or God is almighty and we cannot understand its motives) and it is going to be a huge issue in Pakistan and the general area...
Why is God always a guy? Seems sexist to me, but whatever.
