Bravo Professor Wichman, Bravo

Thank you for putting the ridiculous and hypocritical protests by Muslims in proper perspective. I applaud you, and support your email completely.

Here is the Professor's email to the Moslem Association at Michigan State University via Dhimmi Watch:



Dear Moslem Association: As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU I intend to protest your protest.

I am offended not by cartoons, but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians, cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders, murders of Catholic priests (the latest in Turkey!), burnings of Christian chirches, the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt, the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims, the rapes of Scandinavain girls and women (called "whores" in your culture), the murder of film directors in Holland, and the rioting and looting in Paris France.

This is what offends me, a soft-spoken person and academic, and many, many, many of my colleagues. I counsul you dissatisfied, agressive, brutal, and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems to be very aware of this as you proceed with your infantile "protests."

If you do not like the values of the West -- see the 1st Ammendment -- you are free to leave. I hope for God's sake that most of you choose that option. Please return to your ancestral homelands and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans.

Cordially, I. S. Wichman, Professor of Mechanical Engineering



Not only do I agree whole heartedly with the content of his un PC stance, but I also find it amusing that Muslims and the babies on the Far Left find the content of his free speech appalling and want him severely reprimanded.

The Prof's first name is Indrek. If he was living in a Muslim state, he would be living up to his name, hopefully that won't be the case in America.


Additional comment: This letter really speaks of the hypocrisy of the Muslims. After 9/11 I often heard the excuse that the reason that there wasn't very many protests against terrorist acts was that the Muslims didn't have enough numbers in the West to generate proper prostests. Obviously, as we know now, that was a lie.

And again, I also bring up the fact that the cartoons were published in Egypt in October, and it didn't generate one protest. So is the image of Mohammed really that offensive, or are the Muslims who protest just a bunch of hypocritical whiners?

DANCE MONKEYS, DANCE

MUST SEE VIDEO: DANCE MONKEYS, DANCE.

Ok, my only problem with this really funny video is that they call man monkeys, when I'd prefer being called an ape.

Biographical info on the writer/performer of this video, Ernest Cline, can be found here. His Nerd Porn Auteur is very touching, but I'm too lazy to find out what Auteur means. I'm such a lazy monkey.

One more thing, you can hear me on Freethought Radio as I have submitted a couple of pieces so far. Not sure when they actually air, or how often.

Fundy Intellects Up Close and Personal

Just more proof of how gullible, naive, and just plain stupid the Christian Right in America is.

Reminds me of the Fundies Say the Darndest Things site. Time for some April gems from their site:

"[Replying to 'as for not seeing evolution it takes several million years... incase you missed that memo...']
several million years for a monkey to turn into a man. oh wait thats right. monkeys dont live several million years."

-Queen of the tigers, Gaia

"[On Noah's Ark]

baby animals wouldn't take up as much space.
God may have put them in a deep sleep - hibernation.
He did it to Adam, He can do it again.
We call it local anesthesia."

-buzzardhut, Rapture Ready

"[Emphasis original]

There is no scientific data, which when _interpreted correctly_, conflicts with scripture.
However, when _interpreted correctly_, it does conflict with Evolution.
Please stop making hypocritical arguments. Ever since Darwin, evolutionists have looked at data with an OECism bias.
Both Creation Science and Evolutionary Science _ARE SCIENCE_. However, the science of the Creationist is the best science providing us with accurate dating of the earth."

-Prophetable, Christian Forums

"Of the World's smartest scientists, 2/3 of them believe in God. From that data, we can clearly see that they are much smarter than the remaining 1/3 that reject the idea of God.
It's quite simple."

AnotherAlias, Christian Forums

"[This poster is a creationist]

As far as, evolution 'predicting' anything, thats all it ever has done. Come up with a theory then go looking for evidence to prop it up. Most scientists look at the evidence, then come up with a theory."

Studyin'2Show, Bibleforums.org

"4.6 billion years is but the false conclusion arrived at by those who need the time and have no one to thank by the prince of this world----Lucifer."

Shirley Phelps Roper, Another Mentally Ill Fundy

Just add her to a long and growing list. A bunch of videos made by her church The Westboro Baptist Church can be found here.

The main website for her church is addressed godhatesfags.com.

The thing is that even though many Fundies aren't as extreme as this wingnut, many have similar views about many of the things she stands for, like her anti-gay stance, and her ideas that every disaster is an act of God.

You have to wonder, if these people become so homophobic because they are fighting their own demons. Just take a look at the founder of the church, Fred Phelps. He looks like he could easily be cast in Brokeback Mountain:


He not only hates gays, but he doesn't seem fond of Jews, Blacks or Catholics either. Here are some quotes from Rotten.com:

"Fag Jew Nazis are worse than ordinary Nazis. They've had more experience. Jews stirred up the Romans to butcher 6 million Christians in the catacombs in the 1st century. The First Holocaust was a Jewish Holocaust against Christians. The latest Holocaust is by Topeka Jews against WBC."

"Anybody babbling about 'multicultural affairs' and 'celebrating diversity' is a propagandist for the militant sodomite agenda...Westboro Baptists will picket this black obfuscator, in religious protest and warning. Being black won't get you to Heaven. But promoting fags will take you to Hell."

"Homosexuals now pervade and control American government at every level and branch. Thus, only those churches that support and promote the militant homosexual agenda enjoy religious freedom. Any church in America that dares to preach what the Bible says about soul-damning, nation-destroying moral filth of the vile homosexual beasts among us, loses all Constitutional guarantees of religious freedom and speech rights."

"Fag priests and dyke nuns is the order of the day for Kansas Catholics. They deserve the sick, perverted leadership that now dooms and damns them."

I know I shouldn't judge Fundies on the actions of most of them. Call me biased.

On a sad note, I had to take Bane off my blogroll. I gave it my best shot with him, but he attacked me once too many times. I don't know if it is just plain intolerance, or some sort of psychosis, or a mixture of the two. It could also be that the fact that he is a tad more intelligent than most Fundies and my Atheism was starting to make him have doubts about his flimsy religious beliefs.
I also took the No God Blog off my roll too. The fact that there was little recognition of an obvious anti-semite, and even the majorities overall acceptance of his views, and the other anti-Israel rhetoric on that site made me realize that American Atheists is not for me. Even the blogs administrator David Silverman can't make the obvious distinction. The memebers there don't seem to get reality.
Kiss my ass bad Christain Bane (I spell Christian that way because he constantly spells Atheist: Athiest on purpose), and kiss my ass American Atheists too. I don't even care that American Atheists President Ellen Johnson is pretty hot.

Another Picture of Me and Daisy

I look a lot smarter when I have my glasses on. These days I have my glasses on pretty much all the time, except when I'm sleeping or in the shower. I guess I don't look that smart in the shower.

Some border collie humor:

How many dogs does it take to change a light bulb?

Border Collie:
Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

Golden Retriever:
The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?

Dachshund:
You know I can't reach that dumb stupid lamp!

Rottweiler:
Make me.

Lab:
Oh, me, me!!!! Pleeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I?

Malamute:
Let the Border Collie do it. You can feed me while he's busy.

Jack Russell Terrier:
I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.

Poodle:
I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

Cocker Spaniel:
Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.

Doberman Pinscher:
While it's dark, I'm going to sleep on the couch.

Boxer:
Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark......

Mastiff:
Mastiffs are NOT afraid of the dark.

Chihuahua:
Yo quiero Taco Bulb.

Irish Wolfhound:
Can somebody else do it? I've got this hangover.....

Pointer:
I see it, there it is, there it is, right there....

Greyhound:
It isn't moving. Who cares?

Australian Shepherd:
First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle....


Old English Sheep Dog:
Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb?


German Shepard:
Alright, everyone stop where you are! Who busted the light? I SAID, "STOP WHERE YOU ARE!!!"

Hound Dog:
ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz

Cat:
You need light? Tell hit to someone who cares. (Thanks Beep Beep for the addition.)
