President Bush makes little girls cry.

President Bush makes little girls cry.
Yesterday at his town hall event in Cleveland, Jessica Hackerd, a “13-year old blonde-headed girl,” asked Bush what his “next step with the immigration bill” will be. “Mr. Bush’s sarcastic reply — a wry ‘yeah, thanks’ — drew laughter from the crowd of 400. But the attention caused young Jessica…to immediately tear up. ‘No, it’s a great question. No, I appreciate that,’ Mr. Bush said, as he saw Jessica’s reaction.”

I think Jessica was crying because she realized BOZO is her Preznit.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:02 pmhow sad to plant a 13 year old… what 13 year old gives a rats ass about immigration? dont worry honey, bush had made a lot of people cry….

July 11th, 2007 at 12:05 pmNote to Karl Rove: Don’t place any more little girls in Chimpy’s fake “town hall events”. They have difficulty staying on script. Check into possible availability of female midgets to fill position.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:06 pmBush is a nasty man and could make kids to wet their pants too.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:06 pmThis sounds like a child who was influenced to ask the question by her parents (liberals). Sad, completely sad.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:06 pmThat’s nothing. Lou Dobbs started pouting and stomping his feet before he ran out of the room.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:07 pm9 Million plus Mexican Immigrants have come to America under Dubya’s watch. Something to cry about. Too many, too fast.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:07 pmWhat an a$$.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:07 pmHe does not have one compassionate bone in his body.
“But the attention caused young Jessica…to immediately tear up. ‘No, it’s a great question. No, I appreciate that,’ Mr. Bush said, as he saw Jessica’s reaction.â€
This asshole did the same thing at the opening of the new White House press room:
As the reporters strained to offer questions, Bush said, “Let’s do this. Let me cut the ribbon … and then why don’t you all yell simultaneously. Like, really loudly. And that way, you might get noticed. I’ll, like, listen, internalize, play like I’m gonna answer the question, and then smile at you and just say ‘got it. Thanks. Thanks for such a solid, sound question.’”
July 11th, 2007 at 12:08 pmBush makes millions cry, think of all the dead soldiers families, the dead private contractors families.
Think of all the dead innocent children in Iraq, and Afghanistan, their parents, their pets.
By the time this is all said and done Bush will have killed more innocent people than Hitler.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:08 pmAll in a day’s work for President Bush. After all, he previously made fun of the blind, the infirm and African-Americans at his events.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:08 pmimmediately after this, Bush stomped on some newborn duck chicks at a hatchery…

And now little girls? That just shows how weak he is intellectually, he’s only picking the easy targets.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:10 pmWe know where he gets these stupid answers from: his mother — the Idiot that was in charge of raising this guy — well, maybe not raising him — (she would have done better raising CATFISH — at least we could have caught him and eat him for dinner. We know how sympathic Babs was when her daughter died — she didn’t tell george about it — Babs and the old man went out for a game of golf. Unbelieveable!!!!
July 11th, 2007 at 12:11 pmBush is an a$$hole.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:11 pmCalling this event a town hall meeting is a travesty. Bush has never had a single un-screened audience. The town hall should be a building where all may enter regardless of political affiliation. At a real town hall meeting, anyone would be able to ask the President anything. Please don’t dignify this propaganda stunt with that euphamism.
Town hall meetings are for democracies. We all know that’s not what we’ve got.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:12 pmThere are no liberals at a Bush speech – everyone is carefully screened so there will be no penetration of the bubble. Jessica went off the script. Poor Jessica is going to have a bad time at Jesus Camp this summer.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:12 pmDaryll sez:
What’s “completely sad” is that you seem to think that anyone not a card-carrying Republican could get within 100 yards of one of Chimpy’s “town hall events”.
Chimpy never places himself in a position where a person could ask him a real question. Every “spontaneous” public appearance is a carefully planned and staged performance. Questions the public wants to ask Chimpy are vetted beforehand, and they are warned that if they deviate from the pre-approved question by as much as a word, their mics will be cut.
Liberals in a Chimpy town hall event…now that’s rich.

Somehow Daryll has made this into the fault oif “liberals”.
Actually, NPR reported that this event was by “invitation only”. Not many liberals get invited to hear this president speak.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:17 pmUnless, of course, it comes to White House staffers having to actually go to prison for violating the rule of law.

My soon to be 13 year old blonde daughter has been in student council and on leadership committee for 3 years. She’s already been to our state capitol to talk to representative and just returned from a week at student council administration camp. She watches the news, reads newspapers and gets straight As in Social Studies. And she cries at the drop of a hat.
And you have the nerve to question the integrity of this concerned cititzen.

July 11th, 2007 at 12:26 pmThe comments here from the clueless minority that still supports this corrupt, incompetent, immoral, un-American administration astounds me.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:27 pmThe poor girl, suffering from extreme nervousness… obviously impressed by the importance of the office, and inspired by the opportunity to speak to the President of her country on an issue she was passionate about…
Too bad our President doesn’t share the same passion for the issues.
It has nothing to do with her being a little girl. He was ready to tell anyone to f*ck off because it’s all about him, and not the people who hired him.
A$$hole.

I’m with you, let’s only report the ‘reasonable’ happy news when it comes to shrub. Shrub is only a victim here and does not deserve to be in prison for his warrentless wiretaps, misuse of signing statements, obstruction of justice in the libby case, lying us into war, lying us into never ending occupation, katrina failure and on and on and on…….. no, shrub doesn’t deserve any kind of criticism at all, only our support and hopes that those who victimise him will stop taking advantage of him.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:32 pmDaryll sez:

July 11th, 2007 at 12:37 pmBush met with the family afterwards to console and cheer up the little girl. He’s a good man and a class act:
‘Mr. Bush again tried to encourage the distraught youngster without drawing too much attention to her.
“It’s a great question by the way, and I’m glad you asked it,” Mr. Bush said.
But when the president finished taking questions, an aide immediately went to Jessica and took her backstage.
After Mr. Bush had finished shaking hands for over 10 minutes, he met with Jessica and her family.
“He said it was really brave of me to do that and he said he probably wouldn’t have been able to do that,” Jessica said. “And he said it was the first time anybody had asked him about [immigration] since it happened.”‘

July 11th, 2007 at 12:39 pmPresident jerk. Sure he tried to make amends later — his aides saw to that, but his true character was once again on display.
Why isn’t he ashamed — oh, yes, because the Bushes are “beautiful” people, according to his mother.
The stupid, insensitive, self-absorbed fruit did not fall far from the tree.
Wrong again, Liberal. If this is true, why did he hold the forum?
Comment by Daryll — July 11, 2007 @ 12:29 pm
He held the forum so that he could appear to be communicating with normal everyday Americans. But that in actuality is too risky, as normal everyday Americans now think he’s an idiot and a crook. So he has his staff hand-pick “loyal Bushies” who won’t challenge him with real questions.
When little Jessica went off-script (or, more probably, asked the scripted question with an unpracticed inflection) Chimpy sneered at her, which I believe is his default attitude setting.
Daryll, your narrow, closed-minded view of “conservative” and “liberal” is really keeping you from growing as an individual and an American. But I’ll bet it keeps your mind clear of any true moral dilemmas, doesn’t it?
July 11th, 2007 at 12:40 pmDaryll sez:

July 11th, 2007 at 12:40 pmNo “representative” would care to hear shane’s daughter spout obscenities. Little kid visiting big adult = merely symbolic.
Isn’t everybody making A’s in social studies these days? Civics/World History is the easiest fluff of middle school. No biggie there.
It’s irritating when parents overrate their kids. Their insano-expectations leads to stress levels of epic proportions during their teen years, just so the demanding parent(s) can have the upper-hand with the “chatty kathy” routine.

I guess you thought that comment would make you seem smart. It doesn’t. It shows you have no inkling of what evolution means.
The more you talk, the dumber you seem. Knock yerself out, dumbass.
PS: Are you home-skooled? Just wonderin’.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:43 pmyou miss my point, pigboy.
i don’t care if the story is reported or not. is the story that important to me? no. but i am interested in where it is reported and what the motive might be for that source to report it.
liberal blogs have already been labeled vitriolic and angry by the so-called mainstream media. these stories, imo, are just bait for more of that behavior, especially if it is a paper like the moonie times that is doing the reporting.
the formula goes like this-
1 put a negative story about bush out that that has an emotional focus
2 offer a comments section and wait for the so-called “moonbats” to come out in droves to call bush names and say basically irrational and unintelligent things
3 point to the comments and say, “see, liberals are a bunch of hate-filled jerks…this is what the entire left blogosphere is like”
4 repeat
we don’t need to fall for the wingnut framing ploys. that’s all i’m saying.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:43 pmYour point? My newphews are being taught conservative values and the difference between conservatives and liberals. Does my comment mean they will be morally sound compared to Shane’s daughter?
Comment by Daryll
The difference is I don’t “teach” my daughter liberal values. I let her read and see the facts and decide what she believes. And we live in a strictly Republican district and I would not encourage her to espouse liberal ideals at school because I try to protect her from the wrath of other students and their parents. However, she is fearless and believes what she believes and calls it like she sees it no matter what.
But I’m glad your happy with your little brainwashed clone nephews.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:43 pmIt sounds like another prearranged Bush public relations stunt gone terribly bad. Inject a little truth and the whole thing falls apart.

It’s easier to blame the liberals, instead of knowing the truth, and waking up that you’ve been fighting the wrong team. There’s no god, no devil. Only evil and good people.

“Im not sure if the President broke any laws or not, but if he didnt we will be sure to find some other way to stain his administration, no matter how trivial or frivilous that may be”, said Congressman Conyers as he ate lunch with media executives from CNN and the NYT.

Do you have any idea how evolution works? (I doubt it.) Evolutionary changes take many generations to transform species. Given that timeframe, how do you know that apes are NOT evolving into human-like species?
They obviously won’t evolve into “humans” because humans are already here. They will evolve, if natural pressures and genetic potential demand it, into different creatures, ones that do not exist today. But then, you wouldn’t know that, because your view of evolution, like your view of most sophisticated concepts, is cartoonish and ignorant.

The bible was written by men, I am as much the REAL GOD as any, because you moron there is NO SUCH THING!!!

Daryll and the other trolls are the “missing link”. Ironic in that it makes them unable to understand evolution but also closes the case for Darwin.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:48 pmapes aren’t evolving into humans for the same reason that my ancestors evolved and yours didn’t, darryl. it’s called natural selection.

Geez, Daryll, that’s an idiotic comment even by your standards. Perhaps we should only ask the Deciderer realy, really questions like, “What are you having for dinner tonight?” or, “Is Barney fun to have around the WH?”
July 11th, 2007 at 12:49 pmDaryll, calling someone who doesn’t believe in the Bible “blasphemous” may make you feel better, but it has no effect on someone who doesn’t believe in blasphemy. It’s certainly not going to “save” him.

Comment by Daryll — July 11, 2007 @ 12:38 pm
Do you have any idea how evolution works? (I doubt it.) Evolutionary changes take many generations to transform species. Given that timeframe, how do you know that apes are NOT evolving into human-like species?
They obviously won’t evolve into “humans†because humans are already here. They will evolve, if natural pressures and genetic potential demand it, into different creatures, ones that do not exist today. But then, you wouldn’t know that, because your view of evolution, like your view of most sophisticated concepts, is cartoonish and ignorant.

So if you need any more proof DuhRyll just look in the mirror. You’re afraid to face the reality of life. You’re a coward, and really a traitor to man kind.

Comment by Daryll — July 11, 2007 @ 12:26 pm
Not at all Daryll, the fact that they are being taught conservative values all but guarantees that they will be completely devoid of any morality whatsoever. Here is a fun game you can use to further their conservative education. It’s called “How many republicans does it take to screw in a light bulb.” Let’s do the math.
1 to steal the light bulb
1 to deny that the light bulb was stolen
1 to question whether the light bulb ever existed in the first place
1 to offer lucrative deals to any scientist willing to write a thesis claiming that there is no such thing as light bulbs, therefore how could one be stolen
1 to blame it on Bill Clinton
1 to claim that the light bulb had not actually been stolen, but just borrowed in order to shed light on the much larger issue of Democratic light bulb theivery
1 to claim that the light bulb was stolen by a middle eastern country attempting to stockpile light bulbs that will be used against us unless we pre-emptively invade thier country
1 to claim that light bulb theft is not a real crime, therefore the Republican responsible should not be held accountable
1 to insist on a presidential pardon for the Republican theif
All the rest to man thier keyboards, pointing out that anyone who disagreed with the theft of the light bulb is un-patriotic
It is very difficult to arrive at an actual number because there is a big difference between actually screwing in a light bulb and just spinning one.
July 11th, 2007 at 12:55 pmDaryll sez:
So…decades of scientific observation, reasoning and deduction contradict an apocryphal creation myth first (allegedly) written 3450 years ago, and translated (poorly) into several other languages since.
And you choose the creation myth, and claim this choice as proof of the falseness of evolution.
Organized religion is the single greatest impediment to rational thought in the world. It should be banned outright.

July 11th, 2007 at 1:02 pmThis teenager was picked to ask a question because she was photogenic and Rove’s elves thought it would be a softball. The question was a solid one from any citizen of any political stripe or age anywhere in the country. Bush just couldn’t handle it.
Run-of-the-mill chief executives get asked much harder questions and handle them with aplomb every day. The notion that the most highly paid, most powerful public employee in the country shouldn’t be subjected to mean old questions is laughable, a confection to disguise a less tastey confection. That George Bush is dumb as a post, rigid, uncurious and as mean-spirited as a hornet. He wouldn’t pass the emotional profile quiz handed out to would be cashiers at Borders.
Bush made fun of this teenager because he was angry; he was angry because he was frightened. He was frightened because her question pointed out a weakness and a failure Bush couldn’t admit or do anything about. Her one little question demonstrated that she’s more emotionally mature than the president of the United States.

in fact, to try and do so would end up being downright unpatriotic. because the laws of christianity basically won’t let you defer to the laws of america.
so which is it, right wing christians? christianity or america? you can’t have both, your god won’t let you. and if you choose the laws of christianity, you’re being unpatriotic. it’s that simple.
that’s why they keep trying to circulate the lie that “america is a christian nation”. it’s the only way they can have their jesus cake and eat it too (while marginalizing every other non-christian, but otherwise patriotic american)

I was being sarcastic. My point is that if we ban religion outright perhaps those things I mentioned would be apporopriate. In otherwords, we place more faith in the elected and popoulous views than we place in God. If the result is “rational thinking” then we may be in more trouble. Not to say that rational thinking is denied because some belive in Christ, but because those who want to ban religion may want to control freedom of religion. Religon causes harm because of men. Non-religious cause harm because of men.

Do you think it is a good idea to reproduce with your sister? Wouldn’t your little Adam/Eve story have some genetic bottleneck problems?

Right everybody makes A’s in social studies when they are homeschooled and mommy grades their papers.
No, referring to public schools. Your bigotry on homeschooling doesn’t make sense, however. Did you know that more minorities (black Americans, especially) are turning to home-schooling around the country, confident that they will achieve more than the public schools of every type that have let them down? Do your bigoted and uneducated views count towards them? They like the results. I’ll locate the link.
So I guess it wasn’t your mother’s teaching that made you such a loser.
And you have credentials from where to determine a “loser”?
She was just protecting you from stress.
Actually, its a national issue. See: overworked teens. Maybe you’ll understand.
Oh and keeping you from talking to adults like teachers about her being a crack addict and bringing her johns to the double wide at night was just a bonus. It really was for your own good.
Again, I think you’re proving that your daughter isn’t so good after all. Don’t worry, because given your mother-load, she’ll be in her rebellious stage in a few – doing drugs, having unprotected sex (the pass-around), running away from home, etc. Your overrated assessments (AKA cover-ups) will sure come in handy then.
How many community colleges did you have to apply to before you got accepted?
I got in the same way that millions of others have, using it as a stronghold and carefully planning my program to get into a good school. There’s a good track record, so why would I take your word for anything? Most people disagree with you, so run along, grape nuts. Put up or shut up. Your own perceptions are insufficient.

July 11th, 2007 at 1:30 pmDaryll, I understand where you’re going. But, take time to understand that there is more to belief in God. Love others. Before you try to do persuade on-line its better to work on yourself. Its hard to hold back, but this is not the place to prostelize.
I wonder how Daryll reconiles with the Pope who just said something to the effect of the Catholic Church is the only real church that can save a soul since it has direct descending lines to the Apostles.
So according to the Pope Daryll, you’ll be close but you won’t be allowed in unless you are Catholic.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24 ¶ And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 ¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, 1 Cor. 11.7 after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Regardless of what you think, most normal people think homeschoolers are odd because children don’t learn social interaction and the kids can only learn what their parents are able to understand.

Sarcasm is the most intellectually challenging form of humor when properly executed. It is also a fine medium for pointing out inconsistencies in thought patterns and can be very useful in forcing an individual to reflect upon their beliefs and defend them. As to obsenity, I am not a big advocate but they’re just words. Lenny Bruce was obscene and sarcastic, would you suggest he was a “nonthinker’?
July 11th, 2007 at 1:43 pmIt will be a complete shame to hear God ask you, †why didn’t you believe my words?â€.
Comment by Daryll
Which words, Daryll? I mean, since there are two different versions of the creation in Genesis and all.
If I recall correctly, you went off to vacation in the Caribbean or something, right? How did that no eating shellfish thing work out for you? Since that’s pretty clearly spelled out in Leviticus, I’m sure you believe His words and avoid shellfish and pork. Right?
July 11th, 2007 at 1:45 pmMy apologies, as this is not the thread for a theological debate, especially with (c)hristian Daryll’s zombified brain. (and yes, I did continue with the derailment, thus my apology)
Back on topic:
July 11th, 2007 at 1:47 pmExley, you stated Bush met with the family afterwards to console and cheer up the little girl. He’s a good man and a class act
Are you basing that upon the fact that after seeing the damage he had done, he wanted to make amends?
If your brother in law beats your sister, then upon seeing the pain he caused his wife, he sends her flowers, do you then call him “a good man”?

You’re entitled to your opinion. The link on #186 is one of many effective means in proving your righteous stereotyping wrong.
Education comes in many effective ways. Your baseless version of “normal people” has no place in debate. Limiting people of their educational options isn’t your right, so why even bother?
That’s right, put up or shut up. Provide the links to substantiate your opinion; otherwise, your writing is certified drivel.
Do I have to go on?
July 11th, 2007 at 1:53 pmi understand your points, voiceofmod, but really this isn’t exactly what i’d call a serious thread. the whole point of it is to say “yea, bush is a jerk!”
and while i agree that bush is a jerk, these threads really only serve one purpose for me: bashing ignorant trolls who are still stone-skulled enough to want to defend bush even after it has been demonstrated at this point probably hundreds of times that bush is, in fact, a jerk.
so it’s pure sport as far as i’m concerned. i welcome the dunderheads darryl, m12, flaco, ct_v1 and so forth. they make me laugh, whether they actually mean what they say or not. it’s comical, really.

July 11th, 2007 at 2:03 pm#192 DRxJ,
Your analogy doesn’t hold up. Bush didn’t maliciously or intentionally “beat anyone up.” He made a wry, self-deprecating comment that would not have made 99,999 out of 100,000 people, including children, cry. But when Bush saw that this unusually shy and extremely nervous young girl was crying, he went out of his way and took time out of his busy schedule afterwards to try and make her feel better. That was a very nice thing for him to do.

July 11th, 2007 at 2:07 pmExley, I will agree with you that what he did afterwards was nice.
My point was, he shouldn’t have made a snide, sarcastic remark to a 13 year old.
I do however disagree with you that it wasn’t malicious or intentional. It was, otherwise he wouldn’t have said it
(But I will give you this though, not being able to hear the remark in it’s full context, we can only “assume” either way)
Hey, your leadoff hitter did well last night. (see, I can derail a thread without theological references)
July 11th, 2007 at 2:08 pmThoughtless jerk.
What a surprise.
Well, I’m sure Bush has made more than one girl cry. Probably millions of Iraqi girls cry every night because of Bush.
I was upset nearly to the point of tears when my five year old niece told me that “President Bush drops bombs on Iraqi kids houses” and “we better be careful or President Bush will drop bombs on our houses” A five year old says this because of her observations of what is on TV.
So I am sure this thoughtless jerk has made more than one little girl cry.

Thoughtless people rarely think about the impact their actions or words have on others.

July 11th, 2007 at 2:11 pmAnd here’s another question for you, shane:
If community colleges are as bad as you claim them to be, why are more and more top-brand colleges (ex., University of Virginia) entering into matriculation agreements to lure more of its graduates on board?
If the quality was poor, you could bet the #2 public university in the country wouldn’t be courting them.
Your stereotypes fall apart in the first sentence.

DRxJ,
When he said “Yeah, thanks,” it seems to me he was just making a self-deprecating joke about his recent defeat on the immigration bill. I mean, come on, you can certainly disagree with his politics, but do you really think he set out to make a little girl cry????
Reminds me of an episode of “Futurama,” when the Head of Richard Nixon is running for President of Earth:
Morbo: Morbo demands an answer to the following question: If you saw delicious candy in the hands of a small child would you seize and consume it?
Johnson: Unthinkable.
Jackson: I wouldn’t think of it.
Morbo: What about you, Mr. Nixon? I remind you, you are under a truth-o-scope.
[The truth-o-scope hovers over Nixon's head and he starts to sweat profusely.]
Nixon: Uh, well, I, uh … the question is-is vague. You don’t say what kind of candy, whether anyone is watching or, uh… [He clears his throat.] At any rate, I certainly wouldn’t harm the child.
[The truth-o-scope beeps furiously.]
July 11th, 2007 at 2:17 pmDear Pip,
Emotional development of 13 year old or not, it is certainly better than the Republicans intellectual level of four year old.
Lefties have the “emotional level of a 13 year old” you say? Oh, you mean an emotional level like John Boehner, or shall I say Boo-Hoo Boehner (R – OH) who weeps openly on the floor?
July 11th, 2007 at 2:19 pmMr Bush is on a par with the Duke of Edinburgh, when it comes to being obnoxious.
Wow shane! You’re a real taker. Had any of the troll talked that way about my boys I’d gone ballistic. I envy your graces.
July 11th, 2007 at 2:21 pmThis sounds like a child who was influenced to ask the question by her parents (liberals). Sad, completely sad.
What’s sad is that many of your comments so far in this thread have disrespected a 13 year old girl. Given Bush’s support for immigration reform, why is this an inappropriate question to ask? Why is it appropriate for our President to humiliate a 13 year old girl in front of his personally vetted audience? Where are your moral values? Do you humiliate children for your amusement too?
You comment once again smacks of GOP’s “blame the victim mentality.” So she deserved his dismissive behavior because she was “liberal” or because only friendly questions that complement the President are appropriate. Even neutral questions aren’t OK.

July 11th, 2007 at 3:02 pm13 yo is right in the middle of the time when some quality classes in good middle schools are doing units and projects on up to the minute current events and civics.
I see nothing strange at all in a 13 yo being prepared with a question for the president on a current event topic.
This year I helped my 11 yo son seek out a Masaii man from Tanzania so he could ask him some questions for a report he was doing on the Masaii. I know from experience from an interview he did with a wildlife biologist last year for a cheetah report that his interviews often don’t result in information that fit neatly within the bounds of the school work, but they are GREAT EXPERIENCEs.
What is strange is that President Bush is not at all times prepared to speak respectfully to a representative of our nation’s youth.
What an a-hole.

What’s that, I’m getting a message from God right now, here I’ll type it for you. aefhsfdgjnsfg. Translation, stop listening to the voice in your head.

Comment by Daryll — July 11, 2007 @ 12:46 pm
Which is what you religious types shout whenever someone has more or less squashed you.
If God wrote the Bible Daryll, why does he say in Genesis that the moon is a light?
Why were people persecuted for saying the earth is round, even though Pythagoras, an ancient Egyption mathematician proved it was round before the Bible had even been written?
Why, if God exists, and he is Omnipotent, omniscient and all good, does evil exist?
And if God predates the universe, which is defined as all reality, where does God come from?
Further, if God is real, why is it that his religion actually isn’t the oldest recorded religion of all, and why is polytheism so common in ancient history? Surely, if there is one true god, he would be the basis of all religious movements (However corrupted) and we would see more monotheist religions expressed through our history?
And lets say that evolution is wrong, everything was created in its current shape and all of that: Why is it we have different species close enough to be able to interbreed (EG: Donkeys and horses, various plants that can be hybridised, tygons and ligers etc…)
Why is it that, if evolution isn’t real, we have human examples, where humans in high sunlight areas have darker more skin cancer resistant skins to people in lower sunlight areas?
Because you see I can explain why there aren’t near humans around within evolutionary bounds: Humans aren’t particularly tolerant towards different looking humans, different sub-species wouldn’t stand much of a hope of survival.
I can explain your whole monkeys schtick: Current theory takes it that humans evolved from a common ancestor of monkeys. The period it would take for new species of monkey to evolve would likely take about as long as new species of humans to evolve. We haven’t been around and taking notes all that long.
Of course, to you, a conservative, god fearing (And boy, if your god is real you should be afraid considering how you conservatives actually treat him) theocrat, I don’t doubt that you will come up with some story involving storks, cabbage patches and larcenous fairies with a tooth fetish to explain all of my questions. Or you will just call me a blasphemer.
