WOW! I would never have guessed that that was you! Really good and a very fun and mischievous look in your eyes.

Too bad about the cigarette; but it's a beautiful portrait otherwise. I guess I have to admit that, while the cigarette is ugly, the smoke coming up from it looks cool.

PDF: I'm not questioning homosexuality. Nor am I questioning evolution. I'm questioning your arrogant characterization of over 2 billion people of this Earth as ignorant and stupid. You're arrogant and bigoted.

Meyers: Good idea. But you started it with your attack. You got what you asked for.

PDF: You need to think about what you say. Those kinds of comments make you sound arrogant and bigoted.

By the way, did you notice the crossdressing entry of the topless female doll with some sort of feathery loincloth thing hanging on the cross? Tell me THAT's not an attack. Probably brought on by my own comments here, though. But, if you tried that with Islam, you'd end up like Salman Rushdie. Try it with Judaeism and you're an anti-Semite. Try it with ... You get the point.

PDF: Evolution is an example, just a f&*%ing example. I chose it because it's in the news a lot lately because of the Kansas School Board. But, just so you know, you just called about 2 billion Muslims "ignorant or just plain stupid." Islam categorically does not accept evolution; some Christian sects do accept it, others do not. And there are a lot of really smart people among evolution's detractors (even if I disagree with them).

The point of including homosexuality in there among the other protected categories is ONLY that it's one of those very delicate subjects that can get you into trouble if you publicly espouse a controversial view. (Look at the current uproar over General Peter Pace's recent comments.) Now, the view you just espoused about it being something you're born with is socially safe, and might even be true. But you state it as if it has been scientifically-proven, which it has not. (And yet you call yourself "scientifically-minded.") But my point is, and has been, that there is an inequality over who and what can and cannot be criticized. And, in the U.S., it seems to me, Christianity is a very safe target.

I don't think I'm nitpicking; I think I'm pointing out duplicity.

I think we both talk too much, though. I'm sure the rest of the members of DPChallenge would love it if we would both just shut up and have this discussion on emails.
