There's a smidge of selection bias in that statement -- of course, Dobson only comes into contact with self-hating Christian gays whose parents have rejected them... but there's also a big portion of unquestioning idiocy.

What Theo Said.

Rather than use my energy to scream at him and his ilk, I just write bigger checks to my church that has a dedicated LGBT ministry and is not afraid to say from the pulpit and broadcast over internet and airwaves that all are welcome in God's house.

I'm involved in a pan-church organization for LGBT people, for very similar reasons. I have neither time nor energy for these idiots. Not even just because of their dodgy theology. Their 'psychology' and research methodology leave a lot to be desired too.

Is that a bump on your forehead, or are you just happy to see me?

Ghostshark has Sex Organ on Head

A newly-identified species of ghostshark has been found living off the coast of California. The Eastern Pacific black ghostshark also exists in museums, but has only recently been named as a distinct species, says Douglas Long, natural science curator at the Oakland Museum of California.

Chimeras display some unusual features not seen in other living animals, Long said.

Male chimeras, for example, have retractable sexual appendages sprouting from their foreheads. These organs, which resemble a spiked club at the end of a stalk, may be used to stimulate a female or to pull her closer—though these are still assumptions, Long said.

I usually go into a blinding rage when I read Dobson's bullshit.

Today is Wednesday, which means I get 2 1/2 hours to do whatever I want while BOTH kids are in school. Of course "whatever I want" is translated into "whatever I can get done" and that means the grocery store.

A very tired, very very tiny baby bat: [link]

Great, now I have to explain to my boss why I'm shaking my head at the screen and muttering "WHOSE A SWEEPY WIDDLE BAT? YOU ARE! YOU ARE!"

"WHOSE A SWEEPY WIDDLE BAT? YOU ARE! YOU ARE!"

Hee!

I usually go into a blinding rage when I read Dobson's bullshit.

I started to go at it point by absurd point but I was getting more upset than I should. I think I shall admire an itty bitty bat instead.

I've been reading through the Slacktivist's deconstruction of the Left Behind book for the past week (it's very long, he's been writing weekly on it for the past 4 years) so it's enlightened me a lot about the wrong-headed theology/mindset that goes into people like Dobson and LaHaye.

That little bat is adorable.

I have 15 minutes where Noah is entertaining himself. Instead of cleaning, as I desperately need to do, I'm just sitting on the couch.

I have never been so tired.
