    The Great Catholic Cover-Up

    THE GREAT CATHOLIC COVER UP The pope's entire career has the stench of evil about it. by Christopher Hitchens On March 10, the chief exorcist of the Vatican, the Rev. Gabriele Amorth (who has held this demanding post for 25 years), was quoted as saying that "the Devil is at work inside the...

    Free Speech Fail

    OTTAWA — After protesters at the University of Ottawa prevented Ann Coulter from giving a speech Tuesday night, the American conservative writer said it proved the point she came to make — free speech in Canada leaves much to be desired. Then she said what she really thought of the student...

    The Evolution of Morality

    For anyone interested, I found a fantastic talk pertaining to some of the science of morality, which is very relevant to religious debate. This video is a speech by a youtuber who goes by the handle AronRa. In real life he has a degree (I'm not sure how advanced) in paleontology. He is probably...

    Osborne not asleep at the switch

    Playing catchup here. Tom Osborne had some interesting comments regarding possible conference expansion/re-alignment during his appearance Monday night on "Sports Nightly." Everyone's obviously keeping a close eye on the Big Ten and Pac-10 -- including the Nebraska athletic director. "These are...

    Dems Rail Against Nuclear Option

    Seems the jackasses changed their tune over the years about this reconciliation business. Funny how that works. LINK

    God Hates Canada

    I used to think Fred Phelps was a nutjob, but he may just have a point about Canada... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6lRrTa49io :laughpound

    God's Checklist

    Hey guys. As an amendment to the Does God Exist? thread, I offer this video to what I'm assuming is a largely Christian audience. I did not make the video, but I think it might be good fodder for a more specific discussion on the claims of Christianity. So without further ado... What say you?

    Scholarships for University Employees

    I believe that's the case, but with Cotton, it's not like money is an issue. By all standards in Nebraska Barney is pimp daddy rich. I understand recruiting in-state potential, but when you have the case where a guy could walk on with no real financial difficulty (and who WOULD walk on, more...

    And Undecided's Perspective

    I realize there's a lot of Fire Watson threads out there already, but I thought this might be a change of pace to reframe some of the discussion. I'll say up front, I have not reached a conclusion as to what I think about Wats and what his future ought to be with this team. Not that it's my...

    The Hard Lessons

    1. First and most importantly, it isn't what we learned, but rather didn't learn. If it hasn't happened already, a full investigation/report needs to be filed as to what the hell happened when Texas lost the Big XII championship game as the clock rolls to zero, and then Lo and Behold, there's a...

    Nebraska is Done

    I remember feeling this way only once in my life about the Huskers. It was around October of 2007 when it became apparent that Nebraska had fallen so low to be an embarrassment both to themselves and the state. I now feel this way, not about the team, but a part of it. Bo Pelini was hired to...

    Hickman and Pelini

    Most of the time postgame interviews are about as worthless as ice cream in hell, but once in awhile coaches and players, especially after an emotional loss, reveal more than they intended. There were a couple of moments like that in the video highlights today. First one, paraphrased, was Bo...

    Aftermath

    Change #1: Lee has proven he cannot play ball at this level. He should immediately be benched so our future can be started early. Change #2: You don't fire coordinators because of one game, but Watson should be told in no uncertain terms that this is not acceptable at Nebraska. Ten points...

    North Carolina Church Book Burning

    A Baptist Church near Asheville, N.C., is hosting a "Halloween book burning" to purge the area of "Satan's" works, which include all non-King James versions of the Bible, popular books by many religious authors and even country music. The website for the Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton...

    Discussion Thread

    Shot in the dark here, but I was curious about something. If any of you on this forum happen to consider yourselves an atheist, why do you choose that position over agnosticism? (Granted that you don't use the terms interchangeably in the first place, which they aren't.)

    Texas Tech QB Down

    Apparently Taylor Potts has himself a concussion. I saw him go out in the New Mexico game but it wasn't immediately reported that this was the issue. Anyone a medical guy? How long does a concussion last before a player can think about suiting up again (I see Tebow is still not practicing after...

    Tuff as Rain

    With the Virginia Tech debacle still dully aching inside, I have to come forward and admit that I still have a hard time believing what happened last night really happened. Sure we had a 57 yard miracle against a pisser of a Colorado team last year, but generally speaking this kind of stuff just...

    Red Raider Meltdown?

    Game tied 7-7 with 11 left in the half against New Mexico. NM is in the red zone again. From what I've seen Texas is absolutely abysmal on defense. Just terrible.
