WHAT HAPPENED TO PAUL MIRECKI? (Phony Hate Crime Alert)

[Senator Bedfellow]

Hey, *I* was tasked to make that post. Didn't you upgrade your Darwin Central Messenger to version 5.3.12?

[Right Wing Professor]

I thought you were one of my alternative identities?

Now I'm all confused.

[Senator Bedfellow]

I should really stop talking to myself like this...

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"I thought you were one of my alternative identities?"

That was me. Senator Bedfellow is one of MY alternative identities. Only on Monday's though. On Thursdays I am one of YOUR alternative identities. Didn't you get the memo? I was sure I sent it in the IM.

You can call me Bob. OK, Bob?

[ml1954]

It's revealing to read the words of self described God fearing, Bible believing, and Jesus following Christian creationists, when they are tested.

[Right Wing Professor]

You can call me Bob. OK, Bob?

I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

[Senator Bedfellow]

Hey, wait - I'm Bob. If you're Bob, you must be me...

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"Hey, wait - I'm Bob. If you're Bob, you must be me..."

Exactly.

[Right Wing Professor]

On the other hand, your hypocrisy is overbearing, because you yourself have told me that I'm an idiot, and make no apologies about it.

Statement of fact. I've never wished that you would end up like Matthew Shepard, that your knees should be broken, or that you should be beaten. Actually, my only wishes for you are that you get a little smarter and more honest. Probably a forlorn hope.

Insults I can stomach.

[trisham]

Thanks for the ping!

I have had a chance to discuss this Mirecki business with the Grand Master. His take on it is this: Mirecki is a professor of religion (n.b., not biology) who seems to have issues with "fundies." He apparently understands the nature of ID, but that insight was overwhelmed by his insulting comments about "fundies," about which he was ridiculously indiscreet. He may or may not have suffered a thuggish beating as a result, which is reprehensible if true, and inexcusable if false. Either way, this is irrelevant to the activities of Darwin Central.

[Right Wing Professor]

The Master, as always, speaks with the wisdom of the ages.

[CarolinaGuitarman]

Agreed.

"Key facts about the reported attack remained unclear Tuesday, including exactly where it happened. A report released by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said the location was “unknown” and listed it as south of 31st Street on either East 1400 Road or East 1500 Road.

Louisiana Street turns into East 1400 Road outside the city limits. Haskell Avenue becomes East 1500 Road.

Also, there was conflicting information about whether Mirecki reported it at the scene or at the hospital. In an interview Monday with the Journal-World, he said he called police from the side of the road, but sheriff’s officials said they were dispatched to the hospital.

Mirecki declined to clarify the discrepancy when asked about it Tuesday outside the sheriff’s office.

“I can; I just don’t want to,” he said. "

"That'll be a nice slap in their big fat face" = "Expressing his thoughts". And we have folks wondering why he "got hounded out of office." Establishing a university class for the sole purpose of ridiculing the beliefs of others, and we have folks wondering why people of faith would "hound him out of office." He doesn't deserve a teaching position in the first place. Let him write for the New York Times. He can replace Jayson Blair.

[Fester Chugabrew]

You can call me Bob.

Actually I thought "Busted Banjo Spoiinnnng!" was kinda cute.

"You can call me Bob.

No doubt. Now go away Uncle Fester.

See what I mean? Goon to the north, Goon to the south, He Who Must Not Be Spoken To safely protected from any who might speak to him who don't have permission.

Weird way to approach an online discussion forum--but, interesting to behold. Everyone posting just on time--a regular little Army of One? Two?

Is it Barbra Streisand, or Hillary who demands that no one in the same building as she be allowed to make eye-contact with her? She Who Must Not Be Looked At.
