I was at Mt Sinai hospital recently -- I notice they have a "Sabbath Elevator," which means that on the Sabbath, it will stop at every floor so that Orthodoxtards don't have to operate machinery. Pretty slick that! They can use machines and derive every benefit from them (okay, so the elevator is a local rather than express) they just can't "operate" them. Similarly, they can be driven around in their town cars, so long as they ain't doing the driving. Sweet deal. I wonder how phones work -- Can they talk on one if they get someone else to dial for them?

Riddle: What do you call an "observant Jew" who forgets it's the Sabbath?

An orthodoxymoron.

SWEET DARWIN'S TESTICLES!! What, they can't use the stairs???? After all Yaweh did for them!!! Oy vey.

To my knowledge, this feature is not only sold in hospitals, so, even if Gnosital's comments were meant to be sarcastic, it is a valid question.

I warned you, Amichai (That is, if you're still around).

You're going to need a great deal of intestinal fortitude and a sense of humor to hang here, for there ain't no sacred cows at ravingatheists.com.

we HAD sacred cows, irre.........but we ate them because they make the nicest burgers....

One of the most irrational of all the conventions of modern society is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected....That they should have this immunity is an outrage. There is nothing in religious ideas, as a class, to lift them above other ideas. On the contrary, they are always dubious and often quite silly.

Ah, atheists: Ravenous, insatiable and always looking to grind their gears on some good meat. That's why they ain't got no sacred cows. They're always eating them.

Is it any wonder why I'm addicted to this place?

Speaking of eating cows, Lily hasn't been around to tell us how horrible we are in a while. I know she lurks and reads every post, so maybe invoking her name will change that.

Plus, last night I stood in front of the mirror, lit some candles, held up a double quarter-pounder with cheese and said her name three times.

I saw the opening, but I resisted the urge to allude to Lily as a cow, sacred or otherwise. Despite our many disagreements, I still like her. Go figure.

That opens the door for a quadruple entendre. Any takers?

What a terrible waste of a quarter pounder with cheese.

I never said I didn't eat it afterwards. And it was a DOUBLE Royale wit' cheese.

Yeah, another occurred to me later, but there may be more than I'm thinking.
