Check out Sagan's Demon Haunted World just because.
Or anything Erik Van Daniken ever wrote.

Oh come on now! Don't tell me you subscribe to this theory that no Jews died in WW2 concentration camps, that they were all holograms created by the Allies after the war?

How dare you! Batty doesn't rim. Not even gay men will let him near their action. Everyone has standards.

It's supposed to be his next door neighbor so it probably was a domestic argument. Maybe Paul's dog was barking too loud.
Maybe the neighbour refused to pay for the wall between his and Rand's gardens?

I can’t believe he buys his own grass, tbh.
Fixed.

Absolutely not.

I dropped the Sagan novel because I consider it to be the definitive demonstration of science and logic as well as skepticism as opposed to denialism. I think that everyone should read it.

I was referring to your sarcastic line above that, that just because it's in a book it must be true, and using EvD as an example of what a fallacy that is. My bad. Maybe. Or maybe you bad. We bad? We cool? Oui?

Ja I figured that was what you were referring to, just making sure that you didn't think that Sagan was the same breed of writer as Van Daniken.

God no. I love Sagan. Watched Cosmos when I was younger and that began a love affair with the guy and his outlook on the future. I think he may have been the first real American I actually looked up to.

I admit I used spell check on on his quote, but in no way that was trying to "dunk on" him. BTW I just spelled check your name. Am I trying to "dunk" on you? No. I just can't resist using spell check function that's all.

I never said NO Jews died, just that the numbers were GROSSLY inflated.

Plus, when you look into the Nazi's collaboration with the zionists, it makes you question things. Not that YOU ever WOULD look into such things, being so oped-minded and INTELLIGENT as you are. [/sarcasm]

It was a joke, you twat, which you chose to quote only one part of to, again, unsurprisingly, suit your own rigid agenda.

Talk to some Jews, particularly survivors of the Holocaust, about your theories. You think the Allies made the ****ing numbers up? Frankly, your attitude disgusts me.
