Object: aa - The polls are open! TQOTM for June 2004
Hi, folks! I'm posting the QOTM ballots early this month because I'm
heading out for a few days, and won't be able to post for a bit. Heading
off to Myrtle Beach to visit friends and get in some SCUBA diving before
trudging back to work.
Here are the nominations for Theist Quote of the Month for June 2004.
Vote for your favorite by responding to this thread. Votes will be
accepted until midnight, June 30. See rules below. Questions? Comments?
Email me.
* * * * *
1) The only thing we all have in common is this: we think we are
Christian. Everything else is up for grabs.
By: DianaC
Nominated: stoney
Seconded: SkArcher
------------
2) Regarding similarities between Christianity and other religions:
We do not accept their beliefs because of God's own commandment that we
shall not worship other gods. Read the bible and the Ten Commandments
first before you stick your ***** in your mouth.
By: Damion Perez
Nominated: Ron Baker, Pluralitas!
Seconded: bogie
------------
3) In response to:

...and you may cease the ad hominem remarks.

Hey, you are the evolving one not me.
By: IKnowHimDoYou
Nominated: Douglas Berry
Seconded: SkArcher
------------
4) In response to a typically clueless and obnoxious Xian troll:

You are going to find that God's grace (at least in its Christian form)
is freely given only to those who repent their sins and accept Jesus as
their saviour. People who simply make loud noises about how accepting
they are of Jesus Christ while doing the exact opposite of what He
taught are not in God's grace. They have yet to find it, in fact.
By: Dave Oldridge
Nominated: raven1
Seconded: John Popelish
------------
5) I only believe in one God, the creator of everything. If believing
in God is not smart to you, I chose not to be smart.
By: gmanon
Nominated: Woden
Seconded: Vic Sagerquist
------------
6) In response to:

"Claiming a false revealed truth" is the same thing as disagreement.
It means the heretic is disagreeing with your idea of the truth.

No, the heretic is pushing an alternative idea as revealed truth.
By: duke
Nominated: GlennGlenn
Seconded: TCS
------------
7) In response to:

What in Hell do atheists talk about?

Well their not too smart.
By: scott..
Nominated: Robert Schneider
Seconded: Carol Lee Smith
------------
8) The two heads and mutated arms are a fact.....so let's just deal
with dogs with fins and gills, and girl's next door with antlers and
hooves.
By: Mary Hogan
Nominated: John M Price PhD
Seconded: Desdinova
------------
9) Evolution is impossible, however, it remains the dream and faith of
the evolutionary religionists. No rational arguments are accepted by
these poor lost souls. They are determined to believe in myths,
suppositions, "just so" stories and anything that excludes God in any
way.
Organs such as the eye, the brain, the nervous system are all extremely
complex in their make up and their functions. The coded information for
these organs has to be there first and exactly correct and complete or
these organs cannot exist. The DNA must come first because it is the
determiner of the pattern and not the other way around. There is no
pathway of functional intermediate stages by which any Darwinian process
could build such a system step by step.
We now know for certain that Darwinain theory is just a story, not a
scientific explanation for the deeper we explore these complex organs
the more we see for ourselves that they cannot be the products of
chance, or chemical and physical laws, let alone matter in motion.
Evolutionary opinions are joining the trash heap of all other charlatan
pseudo-sciences. It is in fact not just dying but is dead and buried.
Let us move on and explore true science and hear no more of this rubbish
called evolution.

Here are the rules for the Quote of the Month Contests.


RULES

1. Only atheists and agnostics may participate in the contests.

2. A quote is a valid entry for the contests if:

a. The quote is a brief piece of text;

b. The quote has recently been written in alt.atheism (verifiable);

c. Nomination of the quote is made by an atheist or agnostic
in alt.atheism

d. Nomination of the quote is supported by at least one other
atheist or agnostic in alt.atheism;

e. The quote is not nominated or seconded by the person who wrote it
in
the first place (no one is allowed to nominate him- or herself,
but a person
can vote for the quote he or she wrote.)

3. There will be two categories: 'Atheist Quote of the Month'
and 'Theist Quote of the Month'. The category for which a
quote must be nominated must be mentioned by the atheist or
agnostic who wants to nominate it.

If a quote is miscategorized (e.g. an atheist quote is mistakenly
nominated in the Theist QOTM category), the quote will be re-directed
to appear in the correct category, with approriate notification.

4. Nominations can be made until five days before the first of the
next month. If quotes are nominated after this period, they will be
considered as entries for the contest of the next month.

* When making a nomination, please use this format for the subject
line:
"aa - <A or T as applicable>QOTM Nomination (was: <original thread
name>)"

5. Each atheist or agnostic who visits alt.atheism has one vote to
cast for each category (two votes total).

6. Voting starts 5 days before the end of the month. During the month,
votes will be ignored. This way, all nominees will have equal chance of
winning.

7. The two winning quotes will be published in the QOTM Archive.

SUMMARY

A nomination must contain the following information:

1. The lines of the quote.

2. Who wrote it.

3. Who nominates or seconds the nomination of this quote (that's you!)

4. Which category this nomination is for.

5. The word "nomination" MUST appear somewhere in the subject line!

6. The original thread title must appear in the subject line.
Publish the nomination or support for a nomination in a designated
thread, preferably called "[T/A]QoTM Nomination for [month]." You can
also e-mail it to me (see below).


VOTING

1. In the last five days of the month you can cast your vote in both
categories.

2. Votes must be placed in the designated thread.

DETERIORATA
Go placidly amid the noise and waste,
And remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.
Avoid quiet and passive persons, unless you are in need of sleep.
Rotate your tires.
Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself,
And heed well their advice -- even though they be turkeys.
Know what to kiss -- and when.
Remember that two wrongs never make a right,
But that three do.
Wherever possible, put people on "HOLD".
Be comforted, that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment,
And despite the changing fortunes of time,
There is always a big future in computer maintenance.
You are a fluke of the universe ...
You have no right to be here.
Whether you can hear it or not, the universe
Is laughing behind your back.

I have to vote for this one. I find it incredible and more than a little
amusing how creationists will swear up and down that "everybody knows" that
evolution didn't happen and that the theory is "dead", and paint
evolutionists as a wierd, deluded minority who simply insist on believing
something that no reputable scientist would ever accept -- and all the
while, the entire world around them knows that evolution actually *did*
happen.

9) Evolution is impossible, however, it remains the dream and faith of
the evolutionary religionists. No rational arguments are accepted by
these poor lost souls. They are determined to believe in myths,
suppositions, "just so" stories and anything that excludes God in any
way.

Organs such as the eye, the brain, the nervous system are all extremely
complex in their make up and their functions. The coded information for
these organs has to be there first and exactly correct and complete or
these organs cannot exist. The DNA must come first because it is the
determiner of the pattern and not the other way around. There is no
pathway of functional intermediate stages by which any Darwinian process
could build such a system step by step.

We now know for certain that Darwinain theory is just a story, not a
scientific explanation for the deeper we explore these complex organs
the more we see for ourselves that they cannot be the products of
chance, or chemical and physical laws, let alone matter in motion.

Evolutionary opinions are joining the trash heap of all other charlatan
pseudo-sciences. It is in fact not just dying but is dead and buried.
Let us move on and explore true science and hear no more of this rubbish
called evolution.

This month's theist nominees are a trifle dull, but one was notable
for its vivid imagery. I vote for #2.

2) Regarding similarities between Christianity and other religions:

We do not accept their beliefs because of God's own commandment that we
shall not worship other gods. Read the bible and the Ten Commandments
first before you stick your ***** in your mouth.
