“The first effect of not believing in God is to believe in anything”

This is why there’s no hope for America.

What were you doing last Friday, Sept. 20, 2013?

Were you at work? I was home, and although I’m technically retired from university teaching, I’m working harder than ever in my retirement — taking care of my family, home and garden, and writing-administering two blogs, including FOTM.

Hundreds of Americans however had so much free time that they lined up for hours, even days, at Apple stores across America, so that they could fork over hundreds of dollars for the latest iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. Other Apple cultists paid as much as $14 per hour for “line-sitters” to wait in line for them.

Analysts expect  Apple to sell as many as 6.5 million iPhone 5 units this opening weekend.

Some of the Apple cultists who patiently waited in line can’t even articulate why they so badly want the iPhone 5. Like this woman iMoron:

If she had voted in 2012 or 2008, what are the chances she voted for the POS?

100% is a safe bet!
