I thought so. Thanks, Dave. :nice:

I thought this was a 2011 album...?

Amen. My Facebook was a war zone after the election results were announced. Ridiculous.

You mean we STILL can't vote for "In Rainbows?" DAMMIT.

I'm gonna try and see if I can come up with a list this year. When I first got here in '09, I didn't know nearly enough about what was going on in music to participate. In '10, I managed to come up with one. Last year, I had so many, I lost track and I couldn't decide. D;

I went ahead and listened to snippets of the vids Shred posted. There's something about the guy's voice that's odd, and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.

Yeah, she did. Silly, innit? See, that was my point, though. America was founded on the grounds that they could worship God how they wanted without persecution, not because of God himself. The reason the Adam/Eve way of creation isn't taught in schools is because it's not universal. In public schools, it's not fair to put one religion over another. Sure, Christian students are fine with it, but what about a Hindu student? The beginning of the world in the Hindu scripture is different. Is it right, then, to imply by not teaching his beliefs that he is wrong? No, of course not. I believe that if religion is going to be taught in schools, all religions should be covered, not just ones that you choose that you personally believe are right. As far as the Big Bang Theory is concerned, it IS allowed to be taught because it's a universal belief in the world of science that the Big Bang is a plausible theory for how our world as we know it began. (On a side note, Laurel, as you are a strong Christian, I think you should watch "The Genesis Code." A huge part of the plot involves linking the Big Bang Theory to the events in Genesis so as to prove the plausibility of the events of the Bible. Of course, there were lots of things I thought were wrong with it (like how the movie somehow assumes that the story of Genesis is the biggest problem atheists have with the Bible; it's not), but I think you'd like it a lot. :nice:)

OH SHIT. My Christmas just got 10 times better. :cheesy:

Oh right, I had forgotten until now that Space Cadet officially retired from doing this last year. :sad: Yeah, Fran, go for it! :D

...Wait. Top 3 on T2L, or Top 3 overall?

:blush: Thanks, Kelsie!

...As always? What, you mean he's done Christmas stuff OTHER than that 5 CD collection he once did? Am I that far behind!? D:

I actually got into an argument with someone over Facebook about this. The girl in question insisted that America was founded on God (which it isn't). I tried explaining this to her, but all it did was grow into a political/religious mess, which ended with her telling me that God views me as inferior to her because I'm an atheist and she isn't. :|

I was gonna sig this until I saw that Laurel had beat me to it. DAMMIT. :disappointed:

Yes plz.

WUT. FRAN. WHERE DID THIS COME FROM!? :bomb:

HAHAHA, good luck with that.

The fear of long words is hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.

...Or maybe it says something about how varied their interests are. When I changed my avatar from Clive Owen to David Byrne, it wasn't because I was disinterested in Clive. It was because I had gotten into David Byrne's music. Of course, now I have Rudy's avatar that I'm borrowing until the end of November, so I'll have plenty of time to think of what to put there afterwards. Grrrl, you don't know the meaning of the word "post-whore." No, really. Back in the day, when Tammi posted here all the time, she has sometimes made 3,000 posts a day. Not a month. Not a week. In one day.

^ :bigcry:

Yes, because we have lots of dogs and monkeys posting on this forum. :|

Lovely entrance, Doctor. Just splendid.

Maybe he'll come back. :blush: Or not. Who knows? (I'd really like him to come back, though.)
