International I Hate Sports Club

I know that this is completely off topic; but I've been told that you've added Rainbow Dash to your cast of rotating avatars, Skul. So, I have to ask, are you a brony?

(Don't miss recovering_fan's two posts before mine.) Whew! Earl described the series of pictures you posted, Fat Man; and I think Iâ??m glad I canâ??t see the last one. :lol: Hello again, Fat Man. May we continue our discussion? You certainly stated a problem that strikes a chord in the heart of thi...

Sorry it took me so long to respond, Fat Man, but the website has depressed Earl and he hasnâ??t wanted to deal with it and our younger daughter has been busy. Okay, I admit that using the word â??hateâ? is a hyperbole. The idea that I meant to convey is that you do not show Earl the basic respect ...

Thank you, Fitman's Brother. I know Fat Man frequently spews bilge, but I do get tired of him vilifying a group of men to which not only Earl but many of his closest friends belong.

Yeah, I know. You have no problem with "progressive Christians." Earl is not a "progressive Christian." He doesn't thump his Bible but he spends a great deal of time reading it. He believes in the literal inspiration of the Bible, the Genesis account of creation, and the Flood. H...

So, once again all religious people are responsible for the evil actions of one hypocrite.

Tell me, Fat Man, why do you hate Earl?

I'm really getting sick and tired of re-hashing my past experiences... I think the reason you have to keep rehashing your past is because these children who come to criticize this website believe that history began with their birth. Therefore, anything you write about times prior to that is beyond ...

Hello, Fat Man. Earl was right. I did greatly enjoy hearing this story. Speaking as a teacher myself, I just want to say that even though you may not be certified to teach, Tuesday you were a teacher. That was a very nice thing you did for those people.

In public school buildings all over the country, Girl Scout troops are meeting after school. They invite other girls to join them. Oh, no! The public schools are forcing girls to sell cookies! In public schools all over the country, ecology clubs are meeting after school. The kids gather materials t...

Our younger daughter played a video of Ray Comfort and his banana theory. I didnâ??t know whether to laugh or cry. At first we thought he had to be joking but then we came to the sad conclusion that he was serious. You are absolutely right when you point out that the Bible says â??But without faith,...

Iâ??m sorry if this is a long post, but I would like to respond to both ChrisOHâ??s comment about the ark and Fat Manâ??s comments in his last post. In the heyday of wooden sailing vessels a few centuries ago, some were built that approached that limit, and had to be constantly pumped to remove the ...

Isnâ??t it wonderful to set up straw men and then knock them down and show how superior we are to those straw men? Since you said that any high school student who knew math could work this out, I will use the first principle I taught my high school geometry students. The first thing I taught them wa...

Hello, ChrisOH. When I was in that Bible-based cult about 20 years ago, one of the "proofs" of creationism they gave was that during a solar eclipse, the moon is just the right size to cover the sun; therefore, God had to have created it that way. I believe in the Biblical account of creat...

You do write very well when you are not ranting. When you rant it begins to get boring but when you talk about a subject like astronomy you can make it very interesting. Your idea of writing a book sounds like an excellent idea. Maybe you could also write a book on astronomy for children. My sister ...

Thank you, Fat Man, for answering my question. I hadn't thought about how sparse the part-time jobs for college students were back then. That was right before the explosion in fast food places which resulted in employers being more flexible with college students' hours. By the way, it occurs to me t...
