The 20th century is just a theory, it never happened.

This one has got to be, hands down, the dumbest thing i ever heard!!!
:lol:

May 24 - A political action group is applying pressure on the Kansas State Board of Education to ban any and all references to the 20th century from school textbooks, a spokesman for the group confirmed today.

"These textbooks state unequivocally that the 20th century occurred, as if that were a proven historic fact," said Gordon Lavalier, the group's leader and spokesman. "The simple truth is, the 20th century is and has always been nothing but a theory."

You know what's sad, that it needs  to be pointed out to people that it is a satire. Because in the world of today, that doesnt sound all too far-fetched.
actualy, mabye not.
"When ink and pen in hands of men Inscribe your form, bipedal P They draw an altar on which God has slaughtered all stability, no eyes could ever soak in all the places you anoint, and yet to see you all at once we only need the point. Flirting with infinity, your geometric progeny that fit inside you oh so tight with triangles that feel so right."

Yes it does. I can distinguish between the shenanigans of fundamentalists and stuff like this, as should most other people. Seriously guys...

...though I had no idea MSNBC did satire.
