"Hey, remember the Double Rainbow guy? The guy who made that YouTube video where he got so excited about a pair of rainbows that most of us thought he was having a stroke or something?"

"Now let's compare that to another clip, that of evangelical Christian children reacting in the same way, this time in response to a hardcore fundamentalist sermon:"


"Likewise, some of you find this massive crowd of Muslims converging on Mecca at least a little unsettling:

Whereas this crowd of college football fans is harmless:

You are discussing false religion..............but if you are smart you shall realize that true relgion has nothing to do with what you are complaining about.

God has nothing to do with the falsity and foolishness of Islam man and Christian man.

You do not know this because you do not know the difference between true religion and false religion.

Are you attacking Islam or Christianity or God?

It cannot be all 3.

"It cannot be all three." Why not, seems to me the world has been walking more and more into itself. The enemy of God has many guises. Prejudice, bigotry, and greed are among them.

depends on what kind of flowers do you plant, and whether you leave room for something useful like some tomatoes, some basil, maybe an apricot tree.

if you only plant your creationism daisies people will laugh at you.

On my lawn I get 2 different kinds of daisy and a few dandelions.Early in the year there are snowdrops and primroses.They are all really nice looking flowers and I feel lucky that they grow every year on their own. Sometimes I get a couple of young walnut trees trying to grow!

1) All religions are true to the believers and false to the non-believers.
2) There is no such thing as an objective true religion - if there was, everyone
would subscribe to it.
3) It is quite possible to attack Islam, Christianity and God since they are all,
in my view, false.

So whats your point? Please spell it out rather than being vague. Are you arguing that it is foolish to fear an angry mob of people because another mob of people is celebrating a birthday party? Or did you not think through your post?

Personally I prefer a natural old-growth woodland to a cultivated garden, but it takes all sorts dunnit.

I'm convinced that weeds pop up via spontaneous generation.

I had a pile of dirt in the garage and low and behold up came a dandilion.
