The Kalam Argument and Myyyyyyy Forty Niner's

Kriss, don't watch the game today...OK, baby.

Believe it or not...I'm totally human. I have the whole range of human emotions (thanks Prozac), thoughts and feelings. I know I'm a martial arts baddass-n-stuff, but really...there are times when I get scared...there are times when I'm irrational (sorry to burst your bubble). In fact, months ago I frackin' prayed (1). Today, Sunday, err, I dunno the date, I will once again show my irrational-ness and subscribe to superstition-y-ness, in the form of the very childish and illogical-jinx. You see, kind gentle and very good looking readers, try as I may to NOT watch sports and NOT be a fan (which comes from the word fanatic), just like an alcoholic in a liquor store...I'm drinking the cool aid called this seasons freekin Fory Niner's.

For pretty much the last decade, I have watched every pathetic game of every season and with love in my heart for my guys...The Phoney Niner's (I routed for frackin' Cody Picket. Cody Picket. Sheez).  They are Phoney no more. In fact, they are hella good. 13-3 is above and beyond what it takes to win the pathetic NFC West and today they are a gonna play the NY Giants in the NFC Division Championships-winner goes to that Superbowl that sports fanatics always talk about. Here's the skeptic catch...

I have not watched a Niner's game all season and the one game I did watch involved the fourth member of the trinity and his team the Denver Broncos with, Timmy Tebow (he won on last second heroics. Thanks Jesus). Look, if you don't follow sports or ever played sports then I can't explain what a fan is or our irrational behavior. All I know is that I haven't watched a Niner's game all year, they had a great winning year, and I know in my heart that if I watch the game today...they will lose. Lemmie put it this way for all you brainiacs out there.

i. I have not watched a Niner game all season.
ii. They have had a great a winning season, therefore
iii. If I watch today, they will lose.

Does this look familiar to anyone. It should....

i. Everything has a beginning
ii. The universe has a beginning, therefore
iii God exists

Kinda makes me wonder...who is William Lane Craig's team.

Go Niner's.

* If you're not on Team Atheist of Team Believer...it is called the Kalam cosmological argument....stupid.

(1) So sue me. I was in a lot of pain and I prayed to God, or anyone that would listen, to relieve my suffering. Wanna know what happened...it got worse. Dam, that nonexistent Gawd sure does work in mysterious ways. Go Niner's.

Tim v. Bill

This is good coffee or sumthin'...I'm a gonna do another quick hitter post. So anyways, Bill Maher tweeted the other day "Wow, Jesus just f###d #TimTebow bad! And on Xmas Eve! Somewhere in hell Satan is tebowing, saying to Hitler "Hey, Buffalo's killin' them". Then the outrage happened. OK, errr, not his best joke, but it was a joke, ya know being that Bill is a comedian and all.

In Timmy's mind while this picture is being taken, "Thank you Lord, thank you."

 You might not like the joke, but dude has the right to tell the joke. You don't have to laugh. You can change the channel or whateverah, even tho it's twitter. If people are a gonna be outraged over this, then they have to be outraged everytime that they say shit like, gee I dunno, "I'm/we are going to hell and we will suffer forever, unless of course you subscribe to what we believe."

(Or...lemmie get another one) Believe what we believe or my saviors dad will kill you, but somehow you will still suffer....forever, while we chill in a totally nice place.

(Or) You have sinned, you have always sinned and you must repent, but there is only one way to do that...I don't care if you were just born. Sinner.

(Or) I have a plan for everything, but you can pray to me (God) because I answer all prayers, but it still goes according to my amazing and infallible plan, you see, human, you are to stupid to understand my mysterious ways (so mysterious it seems that there is no plan, but I thought of that-human)..is that confusing...then pray.

I think that is way more harmful than Bills joke. At least it's a joke. when you say that...you're fer real.

* Funny thing. I kinda like Timmy. After all he does help poor peeps in my beautiful Philippines, and I certainly cannot hate a guy for that.

Thank You Peeps

First of all, I want to say thanks all you kind gentle and very good looking readers for being residents of the place called, Awesome-ville. Yesterday, I went over 100,000 hits, which to me, it might as well be 100,000 kisses from (formerly called)...HER. It means so much to me that peeps find this place interesting enuff to come here day in and day out (esp. w/my mood swings, bad spelling, recent bitterness with only the occasional good post). I've always wanted to be a writer, even before wanting to be a rock star and/or martial arts baddass.

The first part of my life I have relied on, how should I say this, my hunky body, fantastic waist length silky black hair, oh and let's not forget my Asian good looks and thick lips of passion. As I age I wanna be known more for my brain (the one up top, not in my pants), my critical thinking and reasoning skills, my intellect and not just my rock hard sculpted body...to die for (and if we can have a few laughs along the way, then awesome sauce).

I'm a proud, card carrying member of Team Skeptic and Team Atheist. I believe in the atheist blogosphere and even tho we are not organized like organized religion, I believe we are all on the same team. We are diverse and come from many different types of backgrounds, but what we have in common is that we identify ourselves as atheist and skeptic. I've been on many teams in this lifetime and every team that I have been on...I have been the captain. Of all the teams in all the sports, in all the dojos throughout the decades, I am most proud to be on Team Atheist (aka The New Atheist). I really believe in this. I really do believe that this is the Golden Age of Atheism. And yes, I do believe that we are on the correct side of history. 50 years from now we will look back and say, just like the feminist said in the 70's..."You've come a long way baby."

So thanks for coming with me. I hope that we can learn together, stick together and when applicable, laugh together. Here's to the next hundred thousand...now let's destroy us some Xmas...beeotches.

Signed, the most humble person in the world,

Kriss

Stay Away From My Precious Beer

OK.

Now...this is personal. You don't ever fuck with me, and don't you dare pick on my precious and delicious...beer. Beer is my good, good and delicious friend. We have had many "You'll never leave me" type conversations. In fact I'm drinking beer right now...and I'm loving it. So it is no surprise that I get totally pissed when I read articles like this...

I'm hot, but I see how this could benefit some people

"German breweries were ordered by a Berlin state court Monday to stop advertising beer as something good for peoples' looks and health.

In a ruling in favor of a suit by consumer advocacy groups, the court told the German Breweries Association that they cannot advertise the claimed beneficial health effects of their brews.

The court said such claims were not in harmony with European-wide regulations covering nutrition and health aspects of foods and beverages.

The suit was filed to challenge German brewers' various claims that beer promoted good looks and helped to ward off heart, gall bladder, kidney stone and osteoporosis ailments (link)."

Disgusting, just disgusting I tell you. So, I guess, apparently there is some sort of standard in German advertising were the advertisers have to tell the truth, or something. Well, if that is the case I hope that they are being fair all across the board. If the advertising police are going to go after my precious beer, then they better go after anything that is being advertised.

I sure hope that they are not advertising any CAM or sham products in German TV, radio or magazines or whatever. They make bogus health claims and none have anymore success than a placebo. What about wrinkle cream, I always see advertising about that. Only an idiot would think that really works. Let's go down a quick list: penis enlargement, cure for the common cold, any weight loss diet crap, quick workouts that get you fit with little work, brain tutor stuffs, power bracelets, ginseng, etc etc etc


I think my precious beer is more effective than any of those CAM-y things I just mentioned. Beer is a panacea, it is true, effective and "you'll never leave me." For the sake of fairness I sure hope that the German advertising police are coming down on any advertising for any product that does not do what it claims.

It looks to me that beer is pretty effective right now. 

 And don't pick on my precious beer.
