    lol , text book reaction .

    That's what you get Turok for walking into a room to find the TrollZZzz playing with Itself yet again, (jeezuus... imagery loss crucial right there ..) getting Its jollies trying to alter the English language. =David Atenborough voice= "...and now we see the creature TrollZzz, lash out in Its own embarrassment and frustration, due to another episode of coitus interuptus during one of Its astonishingly frequent near 20000 cycles of manual stimulation in It’s excessive post counts "

    May God bless you stu,
    And keep you all year through.
    May God give you all the faith it takes,
    To make your dreams come true.
    May His love and wisdom always help,
    To guide you on your way.
    May His light shine down upon you now,
    To bless your every day.

  4. Textbook reaction of stuey coming to the defense of his widdle buddy...

    stuey thinks: "Poow widdle Tuwok, I must come to his defense...because he needs defending. If my baby love Tuwok is attacked, I must attack that mean old attacker."

    They think like a group, they act like a group...that's why its called group think.


    LOL!

  5. AKHENATON - Do you not realize you died some 3300 years ago? Sorry, the Egyptians removed your new worship to Aton. Your son changed his name back. Get back into your sarcophagus...

    A group with shared thoughts, doctrine and principles ?


    Sounds like a religion to me.

  8. LAW OF THE LAND
    Court rules atheism a religion
    Decides 1st Amendment protects prison inmate's right to start study group

    A federal court of appeals ruled yesterday Wisconsin prison officials violated an inmate's rights because they did not treat atheism as a religion.

    "Atheism is [the inmate's] religion, and the group that he wanted to start was religious in nature even though it expressly rejects a belief in a supreme being," the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals said.

    The court decided the inmate's First Amendment rights were violated because the prison refused to allow him to create a study group for atheists.

    Brian Fahling, senior trial attorney for the American Family Association Center for Law & Policy, called the court's ruling "a sort of Alice in Wonderland jurisprudence."

    "Up is down, and atheism, the antithesis of religion, is religion," said Fahling.

    The Supreme Court has said a religion need not be based on a belief in the existence of a supreme being. In the 1961 case of Torcaso v. Watkins, the court described "secular humanism" as a religion.

    Fahling said today's ruling was "further evidence of the incoherence of Establishment Clause jurisprudence."

    "It is difficult not to be somewhat jaundiced about our courts when they take clauses especially designed to protect religion from the state and turn them on their head by giving protective cover to a belief system, that, by every known definition other than the courts' is not a religion, while simultaneously declaring public expressions of true religious faith to be prohibited," Fahling said.

    LOL.

    Yeah, yeah, I know Z. You eschew "commoner" definitions in favor of off beat, illicit ones.

    But still, you might have wanted to read the entire article before posting.

    And before some moron... erm, wise ass, eh hmm, I mean smarty pants thinks they might have a point concerning the phrase belief system... Just bear in mind that a philosophy, world view, and ideology are also examples of a belief system. Don't think because you see the word "belief" it always refers to religion.
