80-foot demons, quite a problem in the US.

80 ft tall demons? I've seen plenty of those, but only in movies, whatever those chretins are having, I want some too.

[Feck]

Seriously though - I wonder what these people are thinking as they spout this bollox. Do you suppose it really happened in their minds at the time or do they just make it up because they're compulsive liars?

Connect her to a lie detector... and the national grid.

I'm astounded that any adult would believe it.

They believe that a politician vying for office will be honest and improve their lots... after that, swallowing the sky daddy tales is routine.

God hates a bad toupee, and a bad comb-over (just say'n).

Are you sure this is from the same country that put people on the moon?

Makes you realize how dumb the rest of humanity is.

The average IQ is 100.

[Svartalf]

and half the US population has an IQ under 100... actually, America must sport an astounding number of geniuses to balance those whose IQ is in the single digits.

I find this so hard to imagine. The closest I came to something like that was when I was about 13, and the family was on the way home from mass. I was doing my usual rational critique of the nonsense through which I'd been forced to sit. I was saying things like Adam and Eve and The Flood were nonsense.

My Dad, irked at this smart aleckery from his upstart son began to insist that priests were very learned, and that these stories were true. I could tell that he didn't mean it even as he was saying it.

That was it. He closest I came to that kind of idiocy at home.

Even the Jesuits that taught me in secondary school didn't attempt to give us that nonsense.

It's not, really. California is a country though.
