It starts out innocently enough but quick turns into one of our most favorite clips on the Internet. Where else can you see Ewoks chugging drinks, throwing food, fist fighting with a little kung-fu, moonwalking and humping Al Roker’s leg? User: Pantufas Nov 2, 2009 10:48 AM

Headline Tag: Television Rating: Good Hits: 1026 Comments: 2 UFOs: The Secret Evidence UFOs: The Secret Evidence A handful of foo fighter sightings could be dismissed as pilot error, but there were hundreds, if not thousands. Could they really just be the hallucinations of tired or terrified men? “Call me Einstein, Flash Gordon or just plain crazy, but I know what I saw!” declared civilian pilot Kenneth Arnold, referring to the nine strange aircraft he’d seen flying rapidly in formation over Mount Rainier, Washington on the afternoon of 24 June 1947. It was, however, not the shape of the craft themselves but the way they had moved through the sky that would fix itself in the popular imagination. ‘They flew like a saucer would if you skipped it across water,’ Arnold told reporter Bill Bequette of the East Oregonian who then went on to use the term ‘flying saucer’ for the first time in the national press. A few weeks later, when the July 8 edition of the Roswell Daily Record appeared in New Mexico with the front page headline ‘Army Air Force Captures Flying Disc in Roswell Region’, the transformation of motion into archetypal form was complete. Although both stories originated in local newspapers, they were quickly picked up all over the world, and the lure of the flying saucer, the promise implied in its ellipsoid shape, has subsequently pervaded modern popular culture. Whatever the truth of these two controversial incidents, they established flying-saucer science as one part Einstein, one part Flash Gordon, with just a creative dash of craziness.

Headline Tag: Sci-Fi and Fantasy Rating: Good Hits: 2318 Comments: 31 Kill Witches and Stone Wizards Kill Witches and Stone Wizards Almost no Christians have read the Bible, an interesting irony given that it is purported to be the source of their religion. When you do read the Bible, its like entering a mad house. The books of Moses are a bloodbath from beginning to end. The God of Moses appears to be a volcano, and worships in an orgy of blood and dismembered animals. Then you get on to Jesus, and things really dont improve much. Jesus states that all the old laws about burning witches etc, given to Moses by God still stand, and Jesus spends most of his time healing the sick, casting out demons and preaching. The irony being that even after he gives his disciples magic powers to cast out demons, many of them still doubt that he is the son of God. Anyway, this video just cuts out one short segment of the Bible, about witches, wizards and demons. All form part of the narrative of Jesus and God in the Bible. Remove these, and you rip out the credibility of the book on its big claims about Gods, and Sons of Gods and you reduce the Bible to merely a story book. It is my reckoning that people can identify Harry Potter as a work of fiction. Why then should people struggle so much in identifying the Bible as a work of fiction?
