You mean there were people who actually believed his tale?
Hey, the hippies are upset, it almost makes me wish the story was true.
Aww. Did the white Christian elves give him a good thrashing?
I bet it will come out that this is why he lost his job.
Mirecki followed up the announcement a class with an e-mail:
"The fundies want it all taught in a science class, but this will be a nice slap in their big fat face by teaching it as a religious studies class under the category 'mythology,' " he wrote in a Nov. 19 message.
Mirecki described his first experience in a Catholic Mass:
"I had my first Catholic 'holy communion' when I was a kid in Chicago, and when I took the bread-wafer the first time, it stuck to the roof of my mouth, and as I was secretly trying to pry it off with my tongue as I was walking back to my pew with white clothes and with my hands folded, all I could think was that it was Jesus' skin, and I started to puke, but I sucked it in and drank my own puke. That's a big part of the Catholic experience. I don't think most Catholics really know what they are supposed to believe, they just go home and use condoms, and some of them beat their wives and husbands."
Mirecki claims he was taking an early morning drive to clear his head. Presumably, he was returning to Lawrence to have breakfast, so that would not be inconsistent with his claims.
What undoes his story is his basic character: He is a frequent poster on a site for athiests and signs his anti-Christian rants as "Evil Dr. P." The professor presents a public face of a laid-back, reasonable guy, but when no one is looking (e-mails and message sites) he is an angry, hateful bigot.
I don't think his story about being beat up will square because he does not appear to be a man of character. And, his story is all over the board when it could be straight-forward. Sure looks like a practiced liar.
Just like the bimbo chick runaway bride story that smelled fishy, this one is even fishier. He pulled over, got out of his car, unarmed, to confront two tailgaters on a dark road?? Right.
Now I might do something like that but my Glock would be loaded and in my hand.
A CNN story ensued and the police cracked down. For two weeks, if you were anywhere NEAR a skateboard in the city of Davis, you would experience a "felony stop" (officer pulls gun, issues you orders to get down on the concrete, etc.).
I know because I was one of those suspected "skate punks".
The woman had made it all up, and she was backed up by all the liberal groups in town, and they never took back any of the strident statements of support that they had made on her behalf.
If this were the case, he would not have been able to drive himself to the hospital, and likely would have been left on the side of the road by any would be aytackers. He certainly would not have been able to teach a class that afternoon; and he certainly would have mentioned it to his class if he could have. On top of that, he's not sure where the attack occurred? Shouldn't be hard to find, because if he was severely beaten, there should be some blood somewhere on the side of the road; and in his car, as well.
Besides, what idiot gets out of his car when confronted in such a manner? Will be interesting to find out where he spent the night on Sunday; and with whom?
Yawn! Another lying RAT cornered and exposed. This stuff is starting to sound like the old dog bits man story.
Guess this means the cops didn't find any red wool fibers on the guy.
