It was what's left of Neatorama's credibility escaping.

Can't wait for all of the exciting spoon-bending vids.

They're furnishing him with treats too quickly. They need to let him stretch out a little more for it to be more interesting.

What an incredibly half-assed hypothesis (and "half-assed" is being generous).

I can't believe this merited a post on Neatorama.

Obviously the bird was getting blow all over the place, and this shot is simply showing the bird correcting itself.

The freaking bird wasn't flying around upside down.

Gazelle Boy was proven to be a fake in 1997.

This kind of sh*t makes me f°*king sick to my stomach.

Would it be wrong of me to hope that this drug backfires horribly and clears away a little bit of precious space on our lovely rock?

That f*cking list was one of the most poorly written things that I have ever seen.

Yes, it is clearly shopped beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's funny though, and I assume that's why it was posted.

Unfortunately, we must collectively call B.S. on this story. Why would they dispose of it in this manner when the only real way to validate their claim, and likely make some money, would be to save it? Why would they think it was worth photographing, yet not worth keeping? Further, the photograph itself is not congruent with the claim of the woman being shocked, and in some sort of irrational frenzy, running back to the fisherman with it.

Sadly, even if it were real, we still shouldn't believe it based on this "evidence." None of this will stop people from believing it, of course, or, worse yet, rationalizing as to why the evidence was thrown away.

So, go ahead.

"Dear Willo the Wisp,

You were certainly right in saying that the pastor of that church was referring to “Freethinkers” — and it was sad to see that the previous commenters were not aware of that."

It's sad to see that, although I provided a link to the Wikipedia page on Freethinking, in the SECOND POST, that the magical powers that guide and protect you did not provide you with the grace and clarity to see and take note of it.

Also, just because the giant magical dragon which hovers above my head at all times is invisible and undetectable, doesn't mean it isn't there. AnUnsi, you just have to BELIEVE in my invisible dragon, and you can share in the mystical, completely REAL, life-changing experiences which my mighty dragon has given to me. If you DENY my dragon, you are an A-dragonist, and that is just a sick, sad thing to be!

May dragon help you.

Love,
Joe

" the pastor obviously means to suggest that if one are not accepting the Bible as literal truth, you are doomed to hell.."

Let me try that again:
the pastor obviously means to suggest that if one IS not accepting the Bible as literal truth, ONE IS doomed to hell.."

There, that feels better.

With all due respect, Eleanor, the pastor obviously means to suggest that if one are not accepting the Bible as literal truth, you are doomed to hell. If you, Eleanor, think otherwise, you clearly have NOT been paying attention.

These individuals don't want you out there questioning, testing, or learning...any of that stuff that goes against their particular flavor of superstition and/or their racket. Stuff like science, naturalism, evolution, or any other religion are BAD, BAD, BAD, and will win you a one-way ticket to eternal damnation.

Right on, Athon.

The eternal question: Who is worse, the bullshitters, or the idiots who believe them?
