Win Ben Stein's Ignorance

The BBQ Pit

I’m so relieved! As an atheist I was getting worried that I was IMMORAL and therefore probably responsible for the shitstorm the world is going through. However, this new interpretation makes me feel much better. After all, I’m an atheist, not godless.

Wait a minute, let me think about that a bit…

Maybe Ben meant to say “such a theistic evil” or “such theistic evil”?

    I'm sure you've all had the experience of leaving out a word in a post and thus having it say the exact opposite of what you intended.
       Eg posting "I do support the right of werewolves to walk outside without a leash or pooper-scooper"
    When I really meant to post "I do not support the right of werewolves to walk outside without a leash or pooper-scooper"

The man was a speech writer for Richard Nixon. Judging by past experience, do you think he’s really able to do that? :slight_smile:

I just wanted to thank Manservant so, so much, for managing to fight through his utter exasperation with super_head, and pointing the poor idiot poster in the right direction about the true meaning of Ben Stein’s words. What would we do without him?

More importantly, I notice no one has disagreed with me that Win Ben Stein’s Money started sucking when Jimmy Kimmel left.

I actually meant to mention that also. Jimmy was definitely the best reason to watch that show; his ad libs were usually hilarious, and even approached brilliance on ocassion! The new chick, and her lame-ass coy/come-on relationship with Stein is never less than annoying. She is NOT funny. I’ve never cracked a smile from anything she’s ever said. I do kind of like it when she pushes her crotch forward while reading the final round questions, though.

Bump.

Just for the record, Ben has apologized for his poor choice of words. Now, if only Kathleen Parker would do the same…

Well, if Ben Stein is so smart then he would have found a better replacement for Jimmy than that stupid bitch he has on now. I HATE her. So so so so much. Everyone I know stopped watching the show when it became apparent as to how extremely terrible that woman is.
