Monday Post

Some quick thoughts for the beginning of the work week.


Offend Mohammad. Draw a cartoon about him. He's not God. He's not Jesus. He's not even Santa Claus. He was the founder of a religion completely antithetical to the liberal democratic values we enjoy and take for granted everyday.



You know the left. Know the people they would eat dirt for. Gladly. There is something about being dominated by tribalists that they crave.



Pray, how does one pay for "free education"?

The most vocal of Quebec's three major student groups plans to keep up its campaigning and possibly protesting in the months to come, hoping for an eventual 100 per cent cut in university tuition fees.

The Coalition large de l'Association pour une solidarité syndicale étudiante, or CLASSE, protested Saturday in Montreal and is planning to hold meetings at the end of this week to decide how to proceed with its strategy.

Quebec's two other major student groups — the federation of college students, or FECQ, and the federation of university students, or FEUQ — say they're content with the new provincial government's decision to cancel an 82 per cent tuition hike imposed by the former Liberal administration.

But CLASSE, which has about 100,000 members among Quebec's 450,000 post-secondary students, says it wants education to be completely accessible by being entirely free.

Is there a magical money tree I don't know anything about?



Science's biggest impediment isn't creationism; it's junk science and "rock star" scientists who use the veneer of professional respectability to promote their own causes while completely ignoring the elephantS in the room:

If you haven't heard about it, about a month ago, Bill Nye released a video, as part of the Big Think series, and it made quite a stir. Bill was asking people who deny evolution and instead believe in Creationism — the idea that the world was created only 6,000 to 10,000 years ago — to not pass on that belief to their children.

Yes, but Romney didn't get on his hands and knees and grovel to the ever-offended masses, Mr. Bump-in-the-Road:

President Barack Obama hit back hard in a "60 Minutes" interview broadcast Sunday at Mitt Romney's criticisms of his handling of Syria and Iran, saying that if the Republican standard-bearer "is suggesting that we should start another war, he should say so."

Obama is such a tool.



And now, let eating with these fractal utensils freak you out.
