The USA squandered a good opportunity to rid itself of all the verminous, white trash, hick states during the civil war.

Next time these scum buckets decide to secede, we should let them.

While we're at it lets sell Alaska back to Russia and make Puerto Rico a state.

i'm against what texas did because they are hiding the truth for political reasons. you seem to be doing the same for the opposite side. every southern state is not bad because they may disagree with you. the extremes of both sides of the equation are the problem in our country, not one side or the other.


It's not just because of this one textbook decision.  The south has always been on the wrong side of history dating all the way back to slavery.

Thomas Jefferson actually thought about making the USA a slave free nation but knew that it would result in a civil war which was not a viable choice to make considering a weakened state would subject us to a possible defeat by the British.  Then the south brings us Dread Scott, then Jim Crow, then they supported segregation, now they're pulling this crap off constantly trying to turn the USA into a theocracy.

The south is just a bunch of white trash redneck filth that hold the rest of the nation back.


Many of my colleges up here are "Dixies" and they´re not like that. Actually, I´m just an hour far from "The South" and after being there (N Carolina and Virginia), it´s not that terrible. And I´m a foreigner... =]

I think the south is the only part of the world where people still believe that mankind walked with dinosaurs and that the Earth is in the center of the universe.
Even Somalia is more culturally developed than the Southern United States.

I realize not all southerners are like this and those few exceptions have my props...and sympathies being surrounded by a sea of sub-human, knuckle-draggers.

Hell, I live in Northern California and I'm practically surrounded by those people.  There are pockets of backwardness all over the place.

Good job pissing the guy off.  I don't think I would've been able to laugh though because the fact that such anti-intellectual garbage is considered legitimate in the USA makes me absolutely furious.

I am from Texas, and I have lived in many states and in other countries. Fact coming, are you ready?
There are asssholes all over.

(It's just that in Texas a high percentage of them have been elected to public office.)

Texas is a wonderful place to live and was even more tolerant than some other places I've been. I miss it a lot. This news, is highly troublesome, however.

I have worked with many people from Texas in archeology and they were quite nice people too.



And besides, creationism is fun. When people start pretending to look scientific defending garbage, your best tool is irony and a couple Richard Dawkins books.

As an American, it's my God-given right to mock any and all states in my union, with or without facts! Even if I don't believe in God, or rights, or facts! Or if I do! It's all the same! I'm an American!

You know, I believe that not everybody in the South is bad but for the sake of simplicity we should condemn the south and hold everybody who lives there equally guilty for this attack on our educational system.



If a terrorist shelters himself in an area with a few civilians, would you really want to risk letting him get away rather than C4 the entire building to make sure he doesn't survive?



Same mentality holds true with southerners. We need to assume every southerner is guilty until proven innocent.

There are creationist *theme parks* around? The mind boggles. I'll be sure to put that on my tourist itinerary the next time I go visit. Oh, and how was it like BTW (in terms of facilities attractions available, beside the inevitably propagandic qualities of each? I hope the rides were entertaining at least to make up for the nonsense that you had to swallow.

It's actually not a theme park, it's a museum that promotes biblical literalism using pseudo-science.

Here is a link to the museum's website.

Germany is legaly forced to remember who the bad guys were. They have laws that remind them everyday of the ilegal use of III Reich symbols (even when some of them are purely appropriated like the swastika).
You can dump crap on Germans for a lot of things (just like to us Spaniards or whatever group of people you choose), but forgetting about that is not in the list






Ya the rest of us wont let you forget either...


As much as I love that sketch (I even have a cardinal red t**** with it who makes people automaticaly love me!) I will now use my serious historian mask to basicaly tell that all the fuss about the Inquisition in Spain is 90% BS.

First, the Inquisition could only judge and interrogate subdites under the rule of the Hispanic Crown (since the Kingdom of Spain did not exist until XVIII century). What does this mean? That the crimes of the Inquisition in particular were agains us and only us.

Other thing is the imposition of Catholicism on areas that were not (like the Netherlands) or the political use of religion to excuse plunder and conquest (America); but that is not attached to the Inquisition, but to the crown.



Sound like you are in my territory. I will shortly be sending you the address you need to send your weekly tribute of waffles to.
If not these people will be coming for you http://www.facebook....6127&topic=1653

Yes, rejecting good science because you want to is a terrible thing to do, but shouldn't you be deflecting bullets with your sword right now?

I'd like to take this moment to observe that all the people I know who escaped Texas are all incredibly good kissers.  Do they have special classes there or something?  Or is it something in the water?

I probably should continue my training now that you mention it.  I hope the tea-baggers become powerful and radicalized so that they elect enough politicians in the south to start another secessionist movement and thus another civil war only so that I may have an excuse to satiate my blade's hunger.

classes and nice big lips. The all-girl Catholic high school I went to insisted on a kiss for every Hail Mary. ;) (All seriousness.)

I think I saw a film about that once, but I didn't make it far.

Texans are great kissers. Too bad the only people they kiss are their cousins. They do more than kiss them in fact which is why we see a generation of idiots from that state who are getting progressively dumber.

Hopefully in 50 years they will lose sentience then the civilized part of the country can close the state off and turn it into a human zoo which it already is de-facto.

But then you couldn't conquer them with the power of your blade and your iron resolve. There is no honor in hunting in a zoo.
