Advantage of living in cold states (or Canada)
Hello. This is just one of those random posts. I won't get real pissy in this one. I'm just doing this for fun. These are the advantages of living in the cold states.

More thunderf00t ownage
One of my favorites from the "Why do people laugh at creationists?" series from thunderf00t. We all owe a great debt of gratitude to "godless science".

Why God can't get tenure
You may have seen this list before. Pretty funny.
1. Only published one book.
2. It was in Hebrew.
3. There is doubt He wrote it Himself.
4. When one experiment went awry, He tried to cover it up by drowning all the subjects.
5. When sample subjects do not behave as predicted, He deletes the whole sample
6. He rarely comes to class-just tells His students to read the Book.
7. It is rumored that He sometimes lets His Son teach the class.
8. Although He only has 10 requirements, His students often fail His tests.
9. He expelled His first two students for learning.
10. His office hours are infrequent and usually held on a mountain top.

Ownage: Thunderf00t
Watching creationists get destroyed is a joy to me. To see their ignorant beliefs destroyed in their faces is like this snowstorm in Maine. Absolutely beautiful.
Perhaps one of the best destroyers of creationism on YouTube is thunderf00t. Take a look at his "Why do people laugh at creationists?" series on his channel. He uses some undeniable scientific logic as well as gut-busting humor to destroy different creationists like the banned comment-censoring user VenomFangX and the tax fraudster Kent Hovind (who is serving a ten-year sentence in prison for tax fraud). It's kind of a shame those guys have been banned and jailed. Now we need to find new ways of entertainment. Nothing funnier than watching Hovind trying to use a science fiction book (the Bible) to back scientific arguments, which would never make it to the pages of any self-respecting scientific journal.
This is just sort of an introductory post. I call this blog the Vomit Bowl because when I see the unimaginable ignorance like what's seen in the United States (religious conservatism, nationalistic jingoism, etc.), I can't help but feel like throwing up.
