ALl this man did was help build a search enging allowing people to share.

This only benefits society.

they did way more than that. they openly challenged (and btw totally pissed off, with unparallelled style) a greedy and indecent establishment that doesn't give a shit about benefits for society. in doing that they set an example to follow at the very beginning of an era change. sadly, society was not ready and did nothing to protect them. but that's how society evolves, slowly, often thanks to and at the expense of guys like them.

If the Pope says (confirming what mainstream Christians have believed for a long time)

what mainstream christians?

i read the pope's quote yesterday, it later came to mind when i stumbled on yet-another-creationism-thread here on slashdot, about michigan state university hosting a conference and such. do us citizens realize that this is a problem with us christians *only*? they are not mainstream at all! that this ongoing charade is possible in a developed country is startling. you won't find such widespread intellectual insult among western christians elsewhere. not even in spain, with an extreme national-catholic background still deeply entrenched in power and pretty low scores in education, does this find a minimum audience. not even on junk tv. in us it spread from the university!? dudes, ...

that homosexuals aren't bad, and now Evolution and Big Bang are consistent with orthodox Catholic thought, what the heck else are we going to build our strawmen attacks out of? ...because you don't really think this will change anyone's mind about how they feel about religion, do you?

francisco is cool, exactly the worst pope to have. ratzinger's rancid fundamentalism was just fine, it drove many lost souls away. too bad, the roman catholic church must have had an epiphany, because they realized this too. now they have a celebrity!

Comment Re:Fuck Snowden (Score 1) 221

Snowden isn't some harmless guy "just doing his thing." He committed crimes that carry the death penalty. Snowden screwed America and its citizens, much of Europe, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia, even if you don't recognize it, or even cheer him for it.

he just publicly showed proof of how rotten government is in america and much of europe. it's those governments who screwed their citizens.

if you believe this deserves death penalty _for_the_messager_ then you are the traitor, but more than that you are a sick piece of shit.

while there are so many medieval crazies running around alternately shouting Hallelujah, Death To The Great Satan and beheading followers and non-believers alike, the Patriot Act will stay.

isn't that why they produced those medieval crazies in the first place, and why they're producing more of them by the minute?
