Title: Aside from the Darwinian irony of it all....

"Police are investigating the death of a baby whose family had tried to heal him with prayer. Four-month-old Caleb Nathaniel Tribble died last Friday... The baby's father, David Tribble, said the family had strong Baptist beliefs and believed in the healing power of God, but were not part of any extremist sect or cult. He said his father, John, had been trying to heal the baby by laying his hands on him and praying, according to the beliefs of the Auckland-based Liberty Christian Church, to which the family belonged... 'Just so everybody in the world knows, I don't put my faith in a cabbage or turnip or anything like that. They put their faith in herbs or vegetables. I put my faith directly in the Holy Spirit.'"

"We need not of proven medicines for we are the children of an all-powerful super-being who lives in the clouds and tells us to murder all whom do not worship him"

This is why Hitler, and the Japanese people in general, should be praised as geniuses. Wipe out all the ghey-ass religions and impose a Japanese God-Emperor system.

And as a little random piece of info on Hitler: He was posthumously baptised into the Mormon Church along with Stalin and some other genocidal nutters. At least Sadam will have someone to talk to.

What's with the japanese? They're pretty much the only ones who were never involved in religion wars and stuff... ah well.

Post by: an0n on December 11, 2003, 02:57:00 pm: They weren't considered to be engaging in a religious war because they believed that their leader, the Emperor, was divine and thus under his direction they lead many a little war in his name. As such they were never considered to be Holy Wars.

And the Japanese have butchered plenty of people.

You'd think after seeing their neighbours kid die from not going to the doctors they would have learned their lesson wouldn't you?

Yeah. They'll end up going all evil with the psychic powers they inherited from their father, the Sheriff, who raped their mother, emotionally destroyed their sister so she could only keep repeating the same single phrase over and over, and who may or may not be Satan, the fallen one.

:nervous:

What?!?

Post by: karajorma on December 11, 2003, 04:26:21 pm: Unfortunately I completely missed American Gothic when it was on TV. I know enough about the plot though to add another reason to the list of why you shouldn't call your kids Caleb :D

I just wondered if the name must be jinxed. I mean two families who live close to each other both have children called Caleb and then proceed to kill them off in very darwinian ways.

Firstly, I resent the implacation.

Not everybody from the South is an religious idiot. We've got our share, snake-handlers and what not, but I don't know anyone who doesn't go see a doctor when their not feeling well. Prayer helps though. It's just that GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES! He's there to aid you, not do it for you.

Lib: Um... you live in the South. You have no right to complain about any unpleasant generalizations people make. Even if they're not true of every last person basically any bad stereotype about Southerners is true of 90% of them. I should know.

Yeah, the fact that fundies would have the last name of Tribble is kind of ironic in and of itself.

Anyway, this is truly retarded. Why are people so ****ing STUPID?

Look on the bright side, when their teenage daughter fools around they just tell the priest that all Tribbles are born pregnant :)

Post by: Stryke 9 on December 12, 2003, 05:11:30 pm: Actually, there wouldn't be much hunger left, because the Tribbles would eat everyone else, what with them rapidly outnumbering humanity ten to one and all.

You know, they never did touch upon what Tribbles eat...

... That would make a truly disturbing Star Trek.

well, they obviously don't eat meat or Scotty ( Scotty? ) would be called "the happy trunkman" about 30 seconds after this pic was shot.
They don't look like critters ( the ones from the movies ) to me, aknowledged :p
