Birth of a Meme: McKayla Maroney And President Obama Aren't Impressed By

Today I came across the image above. Given that  McKayla Maroney's being caught on camera making this face after she narrowly lost gold at the Olympics, I'm amazed that there has been very little backlash for  her. She has become more famous for it than vilified for unsporting  behavior. I mean shouldn't she be grateful? But maybe given her age and the circumstances people are willing to let her slide. I know I'm not really upset by that, and the memes it has generated have been priceless. It was a good idea for the Obama administration to capitalize on her fame.

FacePlant of the Day - Debunking Christianity: A New Meme, The Oblivious Christian Apologist

It's so cute when John Loftus attempts humor while on his crusade against Christianity. He posted the following meme attempt and linked to more.

I immediately had an issue with this but not for just the reasons that some people made in the comments.



They point out "rejection" and "criticism" cannot be conflated and still make sense, but I think that there is another issue. What does the fact that some Christians think it's okay to reject and criticize Islam but never read anything of the Qur'an have anything to do with Atheists being ignorant about the Bible? It doesn't. You should not reject other people's beliefs and tell them to change those beliefs if you don't know what those beliefs are.



As for the other meme:

Three problems. First, I think the author is confusing scientists with atheists. Not the same thing. Second, no Bible believing Christian believes that God made the universe using magic. No, that sounds like atheists who think that the universe brought itself into existence. Third, Biblical faith isn't blind. Oh and for free, Christians do not believe that God  cares and loves only us. He loves everyone who has or ever will exist. That's not arrogance. Claiming that all scientists are atheists? Now that's arrogant.



And here is another Loftus linked to.

Atheists prove that they don't have an objective foundation for Morality, but Christians are not arguing that God has an objective touchstone for His morality. Christians believe that God is the grounding and foundation for morality.



Epic failure.

Answering Muslims: James White Responds to . . . Total Nonsense

David Wood posted a summary of the rebuttal video to Ivey Conerly's and Dr James White's video that was in itself a rebuttal to this video by  Kamal Saleh. I posted a blog post containing those videos here. I just loved David Wood's comment.

Occupy Movement Turns Geek

Invariably, throughout history, when societies become economically polarized between rich and poor - when a few people control most of the wealth - the society blows up like a powder keg. That is what I see in the Occupy Wall Street Movement. The thing is people have been talking about the 1% and 99% for years. Today due to the economic issues making these things so obvious people are complaining in the mainstream. Fortunately a few good memes have come out of this. Here are two of them I like!
