Oh, thank goodness, all gone.

At least I was able to get sensible uncle away from loony-tunes aunt for a bit to talk computers (he's found a cheap and good parts store nearby, he's going to email me the address).

And now, laughing at the fundies time!

I found a great compendium of shite scraped off fundie forums here. It's not updated anymore, but the archives are hillarious. For example:

"Did you know that all bulls are males? How can these bulls mate to have more bulls? It's your funeral evolutionists. Admit evolution is a pathetic fantasy created by scientists because they can't accept God."

*headdesk*

[After being told 'they mate with cows, you idiot'] "Then, why don't the bulls that are born have some bull like features and cow spots? If a bull mates with a cow, wouldn't you get a female eventually? Evolution is dead water."

*double headdesk*

So yeah, feeling much more chipper - at least I know now I can get by without letting the more moronic elements of my family get to me... I just have to remember not to tar the other ones with the same brush (from the way sensible uncle was rolling his eyes at some of the shite that was being come out with today, it would appear I'm not in this boat alone!).

Yes we do get cows when cows mate with bulls, and we get bulls too, we kill off the ones who have traits we don't want and breed the onese we do, every farmer knows this.. that is evolution at it's most basic.

sorry.. felt the need to get it off my chest... OI!!!
gatta love the fundies

Say? have you been in the new Computer Gameing shop in Ballymena?
I'm thinking about starting a Stich and Bitch group there (they do coffee and tea) and I am sounding out people who might be interested. I don't think knitting is your thing.. but it never hurts to ask

gosh, I've not knitted in ages... the best I ever managed was the amazing yellow neverending scarf... *sheepish* I never learned to cast off */sheepish*

Thanks for thinking about me though :) Maybe I will drop in if you get it going and beg you all for pointers ;)

T'would be great!!!
Binding off it easy.. Knit two stiches, then take the first knit stich and pull it over the second leaving you with one loop instead of two...
then knit one more stich and do it all over again.

It's slightly distressing for me to admit that we were taught to knit in primary school. Yup.

So, what does Mr/Mrs Fundie have to say about oxen then?
