when i was growing up as a christian i was warned that quotgod is not mockedquot as an atheist it feels good to turn that little threat on its ear with this tongue-in-cheek retelling of the classic resurrection storythis one falls into the quotjust for funquot category folks no deep messages no explorations into the wonders of science no dissections of religious literature just a loud soundtrack some gratuitous gore and a little sacrilege so just chill already

how the mighty have fallen perhaps it has something to do with no longer being allowed to kill the opposition the story of elijah on mt carmel is such obvious bunk probably ancient propaganda and clearly opposed to moses039 and jesus039 sentiments of not testing god i thought it would be funny to juxtapose it with a william lane craig-style debate i guess somehow it wouldn039t be as convincing for god to show up during one of billy craig039s debates with cameras rolling and a few billion potential viewers nope a few hundred ancient desert people atop a drought-stricken mt carmel are obviously much more important than the rest of the world in fact they039re literally called god039s quotchosen peoplequot imagine if someone like the president had a quotchosenquot race of people he went out of his way to support above and against all other races i039d dare say people would call him a racist god is a racist according to the bibleroyalty-free music used:quotbeast appearsquot by alexandr bulgarovhttp:wwwjamendocomentrack786070http:creativecommonsorglicensesby-nc-nd30quotsparkquot by babalhttp:wwwjamendocomentrack76817http:creativecommonsorglicensesby-sa30quotarcadiaquot by tryadhttp:wwwjamendocomentrack6581http:creativecommonsorglicensesby-sa25sound effects:audio files provided by http:wwwaudiomicrocom

dear alberta this stuff might sound very impressive in the church you claim not to go to however out here in the real world we have noticed that the people who claim to have met big jc or luci bear a striking resemblance to those who have claimed to have been abducted by aliens why do none of these entities ever appear to people of influence or those qualified to assess the situation by scientific means hhmmmmher vid:http:wwwyoutubecomwatchv=ofu7bvyozfa

democrats in their own words covering up the fannie mae freddie mac scam that caused our economic crisisat a 2004 hearing see democrat after democrat covering up and attacking the regulations to protect fannie mae and freddie mac their cash cows that are now destroying our economy because the democrats let them cheatthere has been a lot of disinfo out there about the causes of the economic fail i039m frankly sick of it so as a public service i thought i might lay it to rest right now this is a long article and will remain on a static page for all to seethe roots of the fail can be traced back to the carter administration president carter signed the community reinvestment act cra in 1977 this was basically feel-good legislation that forced banks to serve all customers in a several mile radius of the branches this was intended to end the practice of quotredliningquot where banks would refuse to service quotbadquot neighborhoods ie low incomefast forward to the clinton administration in 1995 clinton signed an extensive revision of the act this act forced banks to document how they were complying with cra regulations for more see this the clinton admin and the democrats in power added massive new provisions to authorize require sub-prime loans be made the revisions went further by allowing the securitization of cra loans containing sub-prime mortgages that forced banks to issue 1 trillion in new quotsub-primequot loans by 2000 the cra was funneling millions perhaps billions of dollars to left-wing quotcommunity activistquot groups the clinton administration had turned the community reinvestment act into a democrat piggy-bank and quota scheme against the nation039s banksquot and created sub-prime mortgage securities bear sterns was the first company to do it remember them remember the banks had to issue sub-prime loans or pay big penalties to the government how do you keep these loans quotaffordablequot no money no money down interest only low variable rate no income verification bad credit no credit no problem just sign here by 2004 92 of fannie mae039s sub-prime loans were variable rate fannie mae told the banks quotmake the loans we039ll guarantee themquot home ownership kept rising and so did prices and the demand for houses rose too but demand for loans caused the interest rate to rise basic supply and demand 101 stuff high-school students are taught this apparently not senators or representatives then gas prices shot up paychecks got squeezed especially low-income paychecks some borrowers stopped paying so banks stopped lending foreclosures started piling up no buyers only sellers home prices started falling down 2 4 6 8 more borrowers stopped paying 60 day delinquencies went from under 8 in 2006 to over 25 by mid-2007 fannie mae quotguaranteesquot became worthless -- because they kept overstating their assets banks collapsed due to worthlessness government sponsored securities issued by fannie mae became worthless jobs disappeared and here we are why is the expansion of the government039s community reinvestment act to blame before cra expansion home prices simply increased with the underlying inflation rate going up by 200 from 1975 through 1995 as the dollar dropped in value by the same amount home prices and home ownership rates were essentially flat -- after adjusting for inflation after cra home prices became unhinged from inflation jumping 100 from 1996 to 2006 while inflation increased by 039only039 33 cra caused home prices to rise too fast economic fundamentals did not support this growth government regulation-mandated credit didnow you might ask yourself why didn039t anyone warn about this well dear reader warnings were made many times but they were ignored as the evidence will show in april of 2001 the bush administration first red flagged fannie and freddie stating that quotfinancial trouble of a large gse could cause strong repercussions in financial markets affecting federally insured entities and economic activityquot on september 10th of 2003 in response to the bush039s regulatory overhaul proposal barney frank a ranking democrat on the financial services committee defended fannie and freddie saying quotfannie ampamp freddie are not facing any kind of financial crisis i think it is clear that fannie ampamp freddie are sufficiently secure so they are in no great danger i don039t think we face a crisis i don039t think that we have an impending disaster fannie ampamp freddie do very good work and they are not endangering the fiscal health of this countryquot in october of 2003 less than a month later fannie mae disclosed 12 billion dollars in accounting errors

the thunderf00t - ray comfort discussion part 1
Bookmarked 752 weeks ago
discussion between thunderf00t physical evidence and reasoned logic supporter pearlist and ray comfort creationist christian journal entry 22nd july 2009 relevant bit whole entry is too long for rest see beautyintheuniverseup with dawnpeckish so found mcdonalds for breakfast back to rays place where i had about 4 hrs to kill before our meeting at 11ish started adding placemarkers to the bible at the interesting bits i had found by the time i had finished there was a lot of blue post it notes sticking out the bible it has now also become clear to me that while my preferred modus opperandi has been in the defense of science i have now read enough of the bible that i could utterly shred this shepherds myth its an interesting question should i set all the time i have spent going through the bible in detail to naught and just let christianity have its peace or should i actively engage in its demise when the ministry opened at 9ish i went and introduced myself and they gave me a rather officious line about not doing anything till the appointed time no big deal for me i put some effort into ordering the car and mending some bust electronics resoldering wires etc stuff that had been put on the back burner for expediency on the road but a more ordered man would have taken care of he went along saw ray arrive by car which raised an eyebrow as the 60 minutes thing said he cycled to work probably just he didnt want to cycle if he was going to be on camera as a cyclist myself something i could empathize with ray is a small man but chirpy and polite surprisingly ray now informed me that there was no problem in me filming hmmm wtf but my only care at the time was the original deal was being honored shortly after he invited me in it was a little intro and pretty much straight down to business the consequence of which was i only had a few minutes to brief him on points i wanted to raise a point which i was keen on doing as i wanted the point i was making to survive robust scrutiny and not to survive simply as they were bought up in real time catching someone on the hop the moments that raised an eyebrow for me was how quickly ray picked up on me lying to him as an example of how religions are created an propagated by mechanism of the almighty tod i am a poor liar its amazing though how well even folk like ray can pick up on the bodylanguage on watching the video you can see it all how he gets uncomfortable and starts shuffling i cant remember too much of the details it was too much of a manic day but i do remember seeing ray being troubled by some of the points i was making i could see the doubt of a man challenged with a concept altogether new to him i could see it in his bodylanguage of his eyes after that we went to lunch ray was buying we took the camera man too who is obviously a hovind fan systematically i went through his points one by one and in the most mild of demeanors academically shredded them the shame being that noone else at the table other than myself would have been able to assess the academic veracity of my arguments ray offered to help me out by putting me up in a motel for a night after a fashion the offer was sincere and i think somewhat precipitated by rays sympathy for what he perceived as my hardship i graciously thanked him for the offer but turned it down in that i like rough life in the wide open space after lunch ray gave me a tour of the ministry the place clearly oozes with money rays artifacts are very coy a skeleton for the cupboard etc he also has a collection of fake hominids not something to inspire someone with confidence about ones academic footingthen had a long chat with the camera man about the history of the earth using the correlated history of earth poster one by one i cut down the hovind arguments and eventually all he had left was to simply say there are both sides of the argumentits amazing testament to the feedback mechanisms of the mind that even after the foundations of his belief had been systematically and academically removed till none remained that he was still sure that there was two sides to the argument then had another chat with ray which i wish i had recorded mostly about the bible the things i really remember was that ray believes in witches wizards demons and sorcerers hmmm thats usually a end of conversation type moment he also thinks that the holocaust was gods way of punishing the jews i told him very clearly that that was not going to make him very popular if he voiced such opinions in publicray left and i spent an hour talking with his graphic design man he clearly wasnt greatly interested in talking about points of contest and we got on very well he was a model maker and pilot we talked teccie for an hour or so a good guy
