Me: Can’t we all agree that all our religious zealots are equally nuts? … Them: Heresy! Burn him! Burn him! ---

Can you all stop teaching our evolving AI overlords and their army of Kilbotz why we’re all crazy and none of us can be allowed to exist? Or, to put it even better: > **[Girls You're Both Pretty](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvX4a3aPAbM%5C)** > > I do not own.Hearing these two argue was hilarious! (ETA sorry about the extra click, we all know our issues with YT at this point) ---

Speaking of religious zealots, this one has signed off\* the thread with a very convincing post telling us that the other posters proved their points for them, which we will see if we will only go back and re-read the thread very carefully. And then telling us we’re brainwashed. \*Any side bets on how long they can resist the need to return and deliver more delicious religiosity to our waiting hungry souls? ---

He actually wrote a book titled _The Wisdom Of B.K. Neifert_ This is what he says about it at his Amazon store: “Aphorisms and poems meant to express the Author’s wisdom. As Aquinas had said, “The end of my labors has come. All that I have written appears to be as so much straw after the things that have been revealed to me.” It wasn’t because he lost faith. If in a discussion with a prominent atheist, I’m sure they would smash all Christian arguments to pieces—and they would. Let Christians lovingly sigh. For as Aquinas actually realized, there are limits to man’s wisdom. Faced with the certainty of miracles, one must believe, though. So, at the end of Aquinas’ life God spoke to him in a vision. “You have written well of me.” And God gave him the choice of what would happen to his work. Aquinas replied that he didn’t care, all he wanted was to be with God.” ---

These posts about B. K. piqued my interest. I just spent the last hour checking his stuff out. Ok. I’m easily amused. He is 34 years old. Maybe a trust fund kid or something. He is wealthy enough to self-publish 25 books (with not one review among them) and has the time to create a truly massive blog. He is nothing if not prolific. And it’s all so very, very bad. It’s awesome! I don’t think he came here to troll. He obviously googled something that led him to that thread and was compelled to bestow his wisdom on us all. He certainly has no problem with self-esteem and I doubt a need to continue arguing with those who can’t recognize his brilliance. After all, as he likes to say, he is an autodidact and a polymath. Too good for the likes of us. I don’t think he will be back. ---

Ok. I wasn’t going to do it but, damn, how can you not love this paragraph? > [@](#): > > The timer started counting, “Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One…” Christa was reminded of a Steve Miller song, one her Grandfather used to play, but the rocket blasted off. It flung into the heavens, with a fiery ball, lighting the world like an incandescent burst of flame. The entire sky was darkened by the fire ball, so the blue, clear sky turned black like during a Solar Eclipse, but no stars. The rocket blasted off, no rings or after burners on this model. It was the most advanced rocket ever developed. It would have enough to get back to Earth, and it could even land upright on its back, like in a Ray Bradbury short. ---
