Good question when you could have been chatting with me!
She might have been funnier, though.  :tongueout:


Oh, she's funny.

Just not 'ha-ha' funny...

I'm still taking to her by the way.
She thinks we're married and the non existant children are mine...  :bluesad:
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

You could always declare that you're a non-existent dead beat dad.

Enjoying a "sick" day off.  I told work I had food poisoning.  :teddyr:  Might pick up Rock Band 3 later today.

Just got back from class after having a debate with a classmate regarding the weight of scientific arguments vs. tradition and faith. Ultimately we decided to agree to disagree, with her still distrusting the scientific community for the most part and me still approaching things with little to no scientific backing as a skeptic (at least initially; I may put more weight in science, but I still have my own very strong, very personal spiritual beliefs that cannot be shaken). The whole thing was triggered by a professor (an art prof, not a science prof; a science prof would have been sacked over this) showing us this thing with a weighted string that purportedly allows you to communicate with your subconscious self. I argued that any number of things could cause the movement in the string that are not connected to the subconscious, which started the debate.

To be fair, I was arguing partly out of rebellion because I do harbor a bit of resentment toward the prof, but he did bring it up out of nowhere and presented it as fact, not as a neat little trick. I will admit, however, that there are days where I'm very much a skeptic and days where I'm more inclined to believe things with no evidence. People can deny as much as they like, but every person is like that from time to time (even hard atheists; you can't validate every single claim yourself, so you do at some point have to take someone's word for it).

Sipping hot cocoa and listening to the Blazers game at work, on my last break.

From Stephen Hawking: "the universe is governed by the laws of science. The laws may have been decreed by God, but God does not intervene to break the laws." and "There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority [imposed dogma, faith], [as opposed to] science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win because it works." 

Karma to both you and your classmate for being able to allow the other to disagree.

I've just woken up.
Its 14:18.

It's 16h18 here and I am longing for the weekend.  At long last I am able to go to the bathroom, let one go and dump some stuff without someone walking in and gasping: "What the hell crawled in here and died?".  :buggedout: :buggedout:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.
