Marsha commented on our crazy times: What a hoot. The pinnacle of evolution: diaper wearing astronuts driving 900 miles to kidnap the rival for their affection, gay meth smoking evangelists who have sudden conversions to heterosexuality, and a "Decider" who's out to nuke the world.
dmb says: Yea, you gotta laugh. These are the sorts of things that confirm my little hunch. Well, its practically a theory by now. This theory says that God is not the creator of the universe, exactly, but he acts as a kind of cosmic playwright. Unlike the so-called "intelligent design" theory, my hunch is based on the notion that God is not always so good at his job and that once in a while we get a glimpse of what a hack she is. I mean, lady astronauts in diapers? Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband calls himself a prince and says he's the father of the late Anna Nicole's half a billion dollar baby? George Bush is commander in chief? This stuff is just too far over the top to be believed. All the world is a stage and God is the writer of the drama that unfolds, but some scenes show a lack of intelligent design. I know they were written because they were so badly written. I think this is what Kierkegaard meant when he said he believed in God because it is absurd. I'll admit that the sense of humor is admirable and nobody cranks out the epic horrors like God can, but I think she's getting way too sloppy lately. Another anti-gay preacher living a secret life of gay sex? She's just phoning it in now. She's used that same basic scene many times in recent years. Its been done to death. We get it, already. Don't ever let your children be alone with a Christian. Who doesn't know that by now? Call me old fashioned, but I'd like to see her return to a more traditonal form of story telling. You know, where the bad guys get it "in the end" in the temporal sense rather than physiologically. dmb _________________________________________________________________ Invite your Hotmail contacts to join your friends list with Windows Live Spaces http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwsp0070000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://spaces.live.com/spacesapi.aspx?wx_action=create&wx_url=/friends.aspx&mkt=en-us moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
