Today...*cringe*...has not been a good day for reason. I am blowing off steam in a semi-rant. I FUCKING HATE FUNDIES. With a passion of a trillion suns. I HATE THEM. If I was hitler, they would be MY Jews. Religous folk are ok when they have some sense at least. But oooooh no, not these creatures. Yes creatures. I no longer have any respect for any fundie anywhere. They are sub-human. Yes that's fucking right subhuman. They tossed away their one thing that makes them human, their ability to reason, and believe in fucking myths and will fucking harass the shit out of you and blast you with IGNORANT MISCONCEPTION AFTER IGNORANT MISCONCEPTION. Any fucking actual fact you return that isn't part of the utter bullshit they've been fed is automatically lies! Girl scouts are evil b/c they have a tie to planned parenthood! OH noes! Forbid they actually learn RESPONSIBLE SEXUAL EDUCATION instead of just being taught they'll get STD's and must not ever have sex until marriage. Because we all know that they'll listen to that.
FUCKING NO! They'll have sex anyways but not know what the hell to do to STOP the fucking pregnacies and as a fucking result of these fundies spreading ignorance the very fucking thing they hate about planned parenthood is what they are fucking causing!
Oh noes! Forget about science at all! Its a FUCKING LIE MADE BY THE INTERNATIONAL SCIENTISTS FOR SATAN CONSPIRACY! Carbon dating, potassium argon? Ha, all good fundies know the truth! They don't work. UTTER CRAP
I want to take all fundies, of all creeds and eliminate them from the gene pool. They are what is holding society back. They are the ones propagating prejudices and social inequity. WHY THE FUCK CAN'T THEY ACTUALLY THINK FOR THEMSELVES!!! Other religous people think for themselves just fine. But noooooo not these fuckwads.
*twitch*
I have rarely cried in despair over the lack of intelligence, but fundies must be stopped. I have put up with their fucking ignorant claims and how they spread everywhere for too long. They know all of modern science is a sham, despite how it brought us all this technology, they know the universe is however many years old their ideology says, they know this and that. NO! THEY KNOW NOTHING! THEY ARE FUCKING RETARDS BEYOND HOPE OF EDUCATING AT ALL!
I sincerely believe it is a diesease. Yes. That fundies have some sort of genetic or neural disorder that makes them fundies. It just can't be any other way. How could a human being give up the very essence that separates us from any other animal to blindly follow? No sane person would do so without question. And now that their personal god on earth, Reagan is dead they've come out in fucking flocks. I had 'witnesses' from 10, yes fucking 10 different religons (8 christian and 2 some other fucking mythology I never heard of) and try to tell me of the great and glorious GOP and the evils of the homosexual and scientific agendas. The first 2 times I politely dismissed them. The last 8 times? I spoke in a dark satanic voice and told them they knew not what the fuck they were saying and should leave this place now for they had soiled the Holy Temple of Reason and Intelligence and their god would not save them from my wrath. And then I slammed the door on them. DAMNIT ALL!
I really should start a grassroots counter-movement to this plague. Yes, plague. They are calling for pulling the faithful's children out of public schools where they are taught 'lies' about evolution and the big bang and filled with such foolish ideas as equality and intelligence and instead to be homeschooled by ignorant parents. This problem has already spread too far. Even into my own field! The other day I actually had to argue why the big bang was not a lie to a fellow astrophysics major who is one year my senior. Her response? Oh no, that's just silly. I'm joining this so I can start showing you scientists what the real truth is!
I suddenly knew why she was a very poorly graded student.
But see! It spreads! They are a disease of humanity! They will undo years of progress that was fought for and worked for and turn us back to the puritan days. This is not good. Half of this country doesn't even consider evolution even remotely true. Yes, that's right, half. The actual number is probably higher! More than 3/4ths or so believe in paranormal activities. Less than a third have any grasp whatsoever of basic logical principles such as the scientific method or any formal understanding of a given technical progress! And no! Those aren't made up numbers! The NSF releases a yearly to bi-yearly Indicators report. You can find it at www.nsf.gov a few links down. Why? Fucking fundies spreading ignorance across this nation! They are a fucking virus that copies itself into the first amendment and spreads their ignorance across the nation!
And I am so very close to just giving up. I always try to get them to think again, to show them how what they are saying isn't true and how they have been indoctrinated. I had a few successes a few years ago. But these new fundies are mutated. They are immune to logic. I am just so tired of arguing basic truths. Things that if they were not true modern medicine and computer technology and lasers--all of it would not even work. That atoms exist. That the world is NOT flat. That there is no international conspiracy amongst scientists. That ghosts do not exist. That objects will fall at the same rate if you ignore air resistance. That mass doesn't change on different planets. That light doesn't travel instaneously. That nuclear decay is exponential and is a constant rate for the purposes that it is used for. That a theory is not a mere hypothesis, it is the highest honor an idea can achieve and most of today's theories would be Laws in ye old speak. All these basic truths and more they reject without so much as a thought as to why they would even be incorrect except for the fact that they have read and been told it is so.
2 + 2 IS 4 DAMNIT!
