I guess if you are just going to do a superficial reading of what I have written, and not really think about what I actually said, you can be excused for calling me delusional.
But that's rather right wing of you, don't you think?
Over his Senate office desk, Harry Reid has a big portrait of Mark Twain. It is hard to completely dislike someone who is a big enough fan of Mark Twain to have such a big portrait over his office desk.
Let me know when any single celled critters evolve a nervous system, a gut, limb and claws to put us into that gut and I'll buy you a drink.
How about a tiger?
Or a lion.
Or a panther.
Or a puma.
And on and on and on.
These are all predators that evolved, over billions of years, from single-celled critters.
You can keep the drink, though. Unless I can get it by mail. Because, really, I would prefer never to be in your presence.
You got billions of years to wait? Cause that's how long it takes.
I'm not going to bother. All the booze will be gone by then anyway.

Wait, wait just wait a second. Your request seems to imply that evolution from single-celled creatures to complex predators could take place during a single human lifetime.
I see now. You are disputing evolution because you don't really understand it!
No one who really understands evolution would expect it to occur on a macro level while he was watching.
Let me waste a little time here, stinky, on a futile attempt to educate you.
Evolution takes place over many generations of an organism's lifetime. The only evolution a single human would be able to observe would be evolution of an organism with a very short lifespan.
Like a bacteria. There have been many observable and documentable example of bacteria gaining immunity to antibiotics. Stuff like that.
But no predator of a size large enough to threaten a human could evolve from a single-celled animal in the relatively short span of years that a human could survive.
So the entire basis of your argument is flawed. (Note: This is not ad hominem. I am saying your argument is wrong because the argument is flawed, not wrong because you are flawed.)
Try to learn more about the subject before you debate it. You end up looking far less foolish.
I finally understand why dimbulb is so irrationally angry at women and at the world.
He has Uterus Envy!!!
Frankly, I would be DELIGHTED to see technology come along to let men become pregnant and to once and for all free us men from having to deal with you narcissistic selfish man hating clowns called women. It WILL happen eventually, I am glad to say.
Personally, I am DELIGHTED that there is no way I will ever become pregnant.
But poor dimbulb, his life just won't be complete until he births a baby. Only thing is, he will probably still be angry and irrational.
Maybe about not being able to lactate. Maybe about something his mother did to him when he was seven. Maybe because he will never have an hourglass figure.
But I bet the real reason is, he is such an offensive and despicable human being that no self-respecting woman will have anything to do with him.
Being offensive and despicable never stopped ANY woman from bedding a man.
Based on that, you should have them lining up for you.
So, as usual, you are completely full of
It must be comforting to be so consistent.
I sure wish I knew terkoy and savagem in real life.
I would love to be able to sell them the Brooklyn Bridge, waterfront property in Colorado, and mushroom farms on the moon. Because anyone who could believe that Sarah Palin has a even a remote chance at winning the White House has a head so empty that they will believe anything.
Please, please, oh please please please, nominate Sarah Palin in 2012.
Please.
Please please please.
50 oceanfront acres, just outside Denver. Beautiful white beaches, palm trees, lots of scantily clad native women, and the temperature never falls below 80 degrees. A steal at only 58 million dollars.
When Sarah Palin retires from the White House, you can sell her the condo next to yours. She will love you for your unthinking loyalty.
You can see Hawaii from there!
This person is a troll in the truest sense of the word. Spouting indefensible nonsense just to get a rise out of people.
This person has clearly demonstrated a lack of understanding of the world, and a lack of concern for facts or the truth. Responding from a reality-based perspective only goads this person to new heights of stupidity and fact-free ranting.
If no one responds, this person is much more likely to go away.
Yes, Judaism and Christianity have, by definition, the same god, the god of Abraham.
But Judaism repudiates Christianity.
Christianity is based on the idea that Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ, The Messiah, the Word made flesh, the Son of God. Christians are waiting on the Second Coming, the Return of the Messiah to signal the beginning of something cool.
Judaism denies the divinity of Jesus. Judaism is still waiting for the First Coming. Judaism's Messiah has not arrived yet.
Judaism's basic tenets deny Christianity's basic tenet. So Judeo-Christian is a contradiction in terms, and inherently without meaning.
So, Greenwald in full of shit? His readers are all mindless sycophants?
What is a reader to do?
Pretty simple, really. Stop reading the blog.
After all, Greenwald's readers are too stupid to think for themselves, and automatically swallow whatever he writes, hook line and sinker. They cannot be reasoned with, and will never learn.
So what does that say to you, that you read his blog? What does that say about you that you continue to make comments to readers who cannot possibly comprehend and accept your vast wisdom?
Doesn't make you seem very smart, does it?
