(Non-Prophets)' [12:32] blah [13:04] ll [13:42] * Indefual has joined #nonprophets [13:43] Hey! [13:43] Can't stay. Have to go. I just want to wish you guys a Happy Canada Day! July 1st, 1876 is the date celebrated by Canadians as the day we got our independence. Have a great show, hope to hear it soon. [13:44] Umm... I suppose you have a 4th of July coming up. Hope you have a good one. :) [13:44] Bye! [13:44] * Indefual has quit IRC (Download Gaim: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/) [13:53] * rudeboy has joined #nonprophets [13:53] gates and buffet? [13:53] must be satan and his Imp [13:53] I mean, it's obvious... [13:54] gee, noah's ark is still eluding all those believers? [13:54] * ouini has joined #nonprophets [13:54] by the way, I'm hearing some good audio here, your tests sound solid this end [13:54] I'm on direct stream [13:55] That's the only way to connect [13:55] We dropped FTR [13:55] Chat hosted by irc.wikkedwire.com [13:55] Visit the Atheist Community of Austin website: http://www.atheist-community.org [13:55] Visit the Non-Prophets website: http://www.nonprophetsradio.com [13:55] Welcome!

Visit http://www.nonprophetsradio.com for show information. (Non-Prophets)' [13:56] Oy Vey! no FTR?! Is there any non-direct method of connecting? [13:56] oops. [13:56] huh [13:56] go to that dirrect link, ouini [13:57] so FTR was being oh so responsive? [13:57] or was it a polite split? [13:58] It seemed strange how they treated the show... [13:58] whoa [13:58] nice clean signal there [14:00] FTR has some affiliation with ALC (Atheist Law Center) and we've decided that we'd rather not be associated with Larry Darby in any way. [14:00] I see [14:01] aw well, sometimes going independent is a better way [14:01] We're looking into other options...possibly old friends ;)( [14:01] Nice Prairie Home Companion reference, there. [14:02] Jeff's trying to declare us out of existence by fiat! [14:02] but I don't drive a fiat [14:02] I drive a dodge [14:02] I have to; life is dodgy out there [14:09] well, they substituted an alien for a "gawd" [14:09] raelians (sic) [14:09] equally as silly a group as ufo kooks [14:10] they believe that the aliens will "save" us [14:11] I'll be floatin with you guys [14:11] which reminds me, where's that beer...? [14:12] You know, I think I'd even have a problem with the government supporting something like the flying-spaghetti monster, since even though it's not *actually* religious, it is specifically designed to denounce the ideas of religion, just like ID is used to promote the ideas of religion. [14:13] Okay, I have to ask ... atheist cruises?! Meetings in India?! Are other atheists out there just a whole lot richer than I am? [14:14] not me... [14:14] I can barely afford MacDonalds [14:15] I'm not going cruising...but I have saved up for a trip to Vegas, baby! [14:15] * ouini has quit IRC (ouini) [14:15] ah, a little poker in your future...? [14:16] always poker in my future...but not in Vegas [14:16] (The joke response is, "Poker?! I don't even know her... " [14:16] * ouini has joined #nonprophets [14:16] In Vegas...it's all about craps. I'm a craps junky [14:16] aaahhhh [14:17] I agree about you guys arguing with each other. Show 5.07, where Matt and Russell argue with Jeff about Phelps, was one of the best shows ever. [14:17] Well, I did once win 360 bucks at the blackjack table [14:17] but craps is a mystery to me. [14:17] And, although I realize that this is mostly a statement about "luck" (though skill enters into it)...I've never left a casino with less money than I entered with. [14:17] that's a record to be proud of [14:18] I've lost more than I've won, overall [14:18] par for that course [14:19] lol [14:24] we have to establish the morality? [14:24] hm [14:25] laws are often enacted due to agendas [14:25] exactly [14:25] prohibition is the classic example [14:25] and that was a constitutional one [14:25] forced through by religious zealots mostly [14:26] brb time for a beer.... all this talk of prohibition makes me thirsty [14:27] For a perfect example of lawful things that are unethical or just plain stupid, there's the pregnant mother who complained about the noise of jackhammers near her home and their effect on her unborn baby ... This woman is shown smoking in the newspaper article's picture. http://www.snopes.com/photos/signs/pregnant.asp#photo [14:28] oh, classic [14:28] oops, mail's here. back in a flash... [14:28] Yeah, that's one of my favorite examples of "duh" hypocrisy [14:35] Taken to the next derivative, there is a republican strategy that involves dissuading people from voting. Is that immoral? They do nothing illegal (in this particular instance), and unless Not Voting is somehow actually immoral, how can you argue that persuading someone to not vote is immoral? And yet I do argue this. [14:39] Kids under 21 can't drink, actually.

WotM guys argued it's anti-Darwinian to forgive?! That's a new level of stupid. [15:04] It's the All Mail All the Time Non Prophets Show.... [15:05] Pretty much...we've been flooded with mail. (Which is great) So we're trying to address the good ones. :) [15:05] cool [15:05] Mail means you've got lots of listeners not sitting in chat too [15:05] First off, I like your show, but ... please don't ever mention Ann Coulter's name again. :) [15:06] * rudeboy pukes [15:06] who mentioned Ann...... eeeeeerp [15:07] not all of them [15:07] you can get ideas for products from ANY subcategory there [15:07] not just the top of the class [15:08] that's a sloppy bias in and of itself [15:08] great thinkers or inventors did not always come from the upper class [15:08] eugenics [15:08] you're leading towards eugenics [15:09] performance is only as good as the time of the test [15:09] it MAY represent a future possibility [15:09] but it MAY NOT [15:12] * ouini has quit IRC (ouini) [15:14] poverty plays a very important role in how this kind of stuff plays out. [15:14] trouble is, it is politically inexpedient to even bring that up now, because according to some very powerful people, "if they're poor, it's their own fault." [15:18] * rudeboy carefully removes his earplugs [15:18] what? [15:19] * rudeboy applauds [15:22] Obama (sic) doesn't get it [15:23] Catering to fringe religion is the worst possible idea [15:24] it would split the party [15:24] they would go to the greens -- perhaps [15:25] the more conservative atheists would shift back to the libertarians [15:25] were that the case [15:26] heh, texas rethug platform... [15:26] oh brother [15:26] guys... another good show, well done [15:26] -> *chanserv* topic #nonprophets Tune in to the next LIVE Non-Prophets show, Saturday, July 15th, 2006! at 3:00 PM EST on http://www.nonprophetsradio.com, or visit the website for archived episodes.
