No comment about the Virgin Birth in Guadalupe?
Explain please. I'm unclear exactly what you are referring to.

For their climbing, perhaps, if you're into that kind of thing, but not for their religious beliefs.

"Of course the only acceptable science is that which goes along with your opinion on certain issues."

That might be true, but it's pretty easy to disprove someone's view with a reasonable set of supporting scientific facts (if you have the inclination).

Sure beats the hell out of trying to argue with someone who bases their views on religious fairy tales. How do you argue with that kind of sh#t?

The core of science is not controlled experiment or mathematical modeling; it is intellectual honesty. Religion cannot, by definition, say the same.

I'm reminded of one of those little, wind up Godzillas. The kind with the mouth sparks.

After about three windings....

Virgin birth is not only possible, I believe it has occurred many times in the past. All that is required is ejaculation in the vicinity, and then a little helping hand with the ooze--if that. Penetration is certainly *not* necessary. If a turkey baster can do it for female couples, so could a wee pipette. One can also imagine scenarios involving sodomy....

The "Immaculate Conception" refers to Mary being born without original sin, not her being a virgin.

Well....original sin is even harder to fathom. We all come into the world with an inherited sin because of Adam's rebellion in the Garden of Eden. I don't think that Quenten Tarantino could come up with a senario to match that.

Weird all right, but everything is cool now because God setup his only son (sadly He could no longer have children after Jesus) to be murdered so that He could then, and only then, forgive us of our sins. I assume pre-Jesus most everyone went to hell.

Wasn't there a band named Blind Faith?

Thanks Tony, hope to see you soon.

Yeah it was kind of a troll Dingus, although it's what I believe. Getting satisfaction from the number of posts exceeding the total of all the posts from my climbing related threads over the last year....proves a point to me.

A good argument will always get a higher post count than a great climb.


That's why bolt wars got more attention in camp than a first ascent put up in good style.....
