A former military intelligence officer-turned-whistleblower told House lawmakers that Congress is being kept in the dark about unidentified anomalous phenomena.

  • It would be an appropriate comment if we’d just had a congressional hearing about Jesus showing up at the superbowl with Prince’s guitar, but since we haven’t I don’t see how your analogy really works.

    I’m done with this - you folks are clearly more invested in tearing down a cute comment from another poster than I am in defending it. Please enjoy your breakfast of bitterness and bile.

      I love when people throw a little tantrum that they’re ‘done’. People that are really ‘done’ don’t have to fuss to anonymous strangers about how done they are ;)

      The comment is a perfectly valid comparison- we have congressional hearings about religious nonsense all the time. The Prince\Kid Rock part was a goof but are you seriously unaware of how often Jesus and ‘Gods will’ are cited in congressional session?

      So if you heard religious kookery in a hearing and then said ‘Well, if God really did bring that hurricane to punish gays it would change humanity’s relationship with religion and science’ - that would be a deeply, stupidly, asinine statement. So it’s just like you adding your half-cent to the UFO kookery. Not sure you can follow that but thought I’d lay it out for you just in case.
