Rep. Todd Akin to Debate Bill Nye?
« on: September 08, 2012, 07:50:37 pm »
Thinking that Nye's satirical comments were real, he's (supposedly) offered to debate him at the Museum of Creation in Kentucky:

Quote
“This name calling by Bill just shows his true colors.That’s how all these atheists are. They anger god with their gays in the military, lesbians on the Supreme Court, all this promiscuity in Hollywood and in music and on the streets. Then we have this guy Bill Nye going around saying we can’t teach the word of god to our children! Of course this angers god and that is what is causing these hurricanes. Bill Nye said any place, any time. Well I’m naming the Creation Museum in Kentucky, September 15th at noon sharp. I’ll be there to debate real, legitimate science. We’ll see if Bill has the guts to show up."

Assuming this is real...I hope this is real.  I want to see this so much.

Congratulations.  You found Ronald Reagan. He’s living in each and every one of you.  Just waiting to gnaw his way out of your chest and skitter off into the ventilation ducts.

This is a blood bath in the making, if it comes too, they should make this a pay per view event.

>Republicans still talking about creationism as if it is scientific fact and not merely Protestant heresy


Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of things I like about living in the USA, but this is not one of them.

"God is angry" is just an excuse to exercise hateful policies, because apparently such petty things would anger a deity.

God is always angry when the psychopathic fundamentalist Republicans like Todd Akin want Him to be.

I hate to be a "Debbie Downer" but I'm gonna point to my signature on this one - "Reasoning with a fundie is like playing chess with a pigeon; no matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board and strut around like it is victorious - Anonymous"  If a debate does indeed happen, I'm calling it now that this will be the outcome.

Wait...is this real? Because we just had a phony Todd Akin quote on the mainpage that had to be deleted.

EDIT: This is another fake. Kinda thought so. The Examiner article links to a site called "Super Official News" and the story is listed as coming from the "Ass Press". That article links to "The Daily Currant" which created the first bogus Akin quote about breast milk curing homosexuality.

Despite knowing about indoctrination I thought it was a good idea to put a human Reaper near my office. Now I am a sentient husk :(.

There is something wrong with society when it's gotten hard to tell what is satire, and what is not. Due to the fact that the GOP has put their foot in their mouths so many times.
