I really like that. Is that a phrase you came up with or did you read it somehwhere? I'm not going to pretend I know the answer to that, but my opinion would definitely be the brain created God. But I really like how that question is posed, it's a simple question about a complex subject. I personally feel that the bible was the first fairy tale ever written and jesus was the first magician and master of illusion. Re: “Did God create the brain or did the brain create God”?

Avara said he fears that FEMA's resources were exhausted by Hurrican Ivan last year. "I know a lot of the trailers are still in use in Alabama and Florida," he said. It's not like FEMA was at a pristine operating level ready to move in to New Orleans. They were already stressed because of last year. I think it took the feds two days to make in to P'cola and we were not flooded out except for the beaches and downtown P'cola and the bay areas.

I was implying that it was the government's fault for not educating those people. And I was being sarcastic towards Enkidu, who I think is the stupidest person on here because he/she keeps repeating that 20% of Americans believe that the Sun goes around the earth. So I made the snide remark that those 20% live in New Orleans....sarcastically - because the government has let them down on education. I don't think the people of New Orleans are stupid, I think they've been left in the dark, and I think the mayor and the governor of Louisiana bear a lot of responsibility. Read my comment "Meanwhile, let's keep the colored people down by not teaching them how to read." I was pretending to be the mayor.

The driving question of my life is "Did God create the brain or did the brain create God?" That's how I got into archaeology and evolution and earth cycles and all that. There is an intriguing book called Food of the Gods by Terrence McKenna. It deals with the evidence of plant effects on human development, particularly the era where you find the beginnings of art and ceremonial burial. Right before that era the fossil record shows an enormous jump in brain matter, suggesting that religion came with the expansion of the brain. Of course that corresponds with Adam and Eve's story of the pursuit of knowledge. Figuratively. Don't you find it funny that God cursed Eve with pain in childbirth and it turns out that the reason women have pain in childbirth is because the human head at birth is bigger than the pelvis bone. Big head = knowledge. I think McKenna actually called the Old Testament story "the first drug bust in history." I also find it funny that God commanded Adam and Eve to "wax and multiply" and that is what's cursing our planet today....too many people waxing and multiplying. You'd find McKenna's book interesting. My question for you is...do you have a biography of yourself on here? What religious persuasion are you of? From some of your writing I gather that you might be a gnostic christian from the purest form of christianity......but you always leave me wondering....

Here's the score so far as I see it: cjh has a few points that I think are pretty valid, but is totally pompous in her presentation, and thinks that her education allows her opinions to outweigh everyone else's (and doesn't want to cite her references). Education doesn't make for a smart person -- it just helps. Even a jackass like GW Bush can have a degree from a top-notch institution and still emerge a total putz. Further, she's unable to put a coherent thought into a single post (lies.com really needs a preview button) and wasn't all that smart to start ripping into JBC (whose friends all post here...of course they'd rush to his side). Was it a troll? Was it for real? I dunno. In any case, if you cut through the flamewar crap, cjh had a few rational points. Too bad it was all too incensed in flamewar to have a reasonable discussion about it. Lameness all around. Wow…what a total poop-slinging assfest.
