    Remembering WinAce 1984-2005

    *sniff* :blush: Thanks guys. It's nice to see this many who remember five years later. On the Internet, I think it's worth five to ten times the age... :) I remember his posts over at the forums he had up at hyperboards. They went completely batty, and well, the subsequent owner of the site...

    Remembering WinAce 1984-2005

    Allan Glenn, the guy who founded the website Fundies Say the Darndest Things site died on this day in 2005. I don't think he knew what he started when he decided to make a repository of insane quotes made by people who decided to reject common sense because they were afraid of being punished...

    THIMEROSAL (a cause of autism)

    No, it hasn't been proven as a fact, but he had to get that lead from somewhere, and she isn't showing quite as much lead in her test results, but it is certainly there. What's more is the doctors around here don't recognize a forced urine test as valid. They think that if it's not registering...

    Vaccinations for our children - good or bad?

    alaurie, I keep forgetting about the lobbies. To that end I thank you for setting me straight. :) alaskamomma, I appreciate your information, but I'm not so sure I'll skip the shot if they get a nasty bite from one of the cats or somesuch after they're six years old. Even then, your...

    Vaccinations for our children - good or bad?

    Mandatory vaccinations? Needles for chickenpox? What sense is there in vaccinating for chickenpox? That's one of the issues with mandatory vaccinations. You can't decide what the child gets, nor can you stop them if the child reacts badly. I would want to be able to intervene if things take...

    Vaccinations for our children - good or bad?

    So far, neither of my children are vaccinated. That doesn't mean that I'm against it completely, because I don't think that they're all bad, but now that there's a vaccine for chickenpox, I'm just baffled. You get the pox once and then you have a lifetime immunity. You need a booster shot...

    THIMEROSAL (a cause of autism)

    Although I have few doubts that mercury is a significant factor in autism, there's something else I'd like to add. My son was diagnosed with high-functioning autism and my wife began doing research into the condition. It's not just mercury, although it is a terribly potent poison, there are...

    What are you going to do?

    Thank you, Gardenia. I think that I might have made the assumption that the OP also tries to mitigate his mistake and forgot to mention so. But I guess its the reason I'm trying to fix the mistake that shows, right?

    What are you going to do?

    Okay, I have a sin problem. And what am I going to do about it? I guess I'll accept my responsibility, try to mitigate my mistakes and not make the same mistake again. The only thing I'm doing different from the OP is I'm not trying to telepathically beg for forgiveness from a middleman...

    The Cure.

    Second, thank you Lahmi for the support. Regardless of the outcome, I'll love him just the same. My wife and my little guy are both starting chelation for lead this week. She's been suffering from chronic fatigue for years, and thinks that it's because of the lead that's she's built up over...

    The Cure.

    Fish and Bread: Low functioning autism is a more severe case of autism. In a number of studies collected by "Defeat Autism Now," the leading causes are the same: heavier levels of metal toxicity and/or a more severe reaction to insane battery of vaccines, even if mercury free. I don't think...

    The Cure.

    The more I'm looking into autism, the less I'm convinced there's a "cure." There are plenty of things that can aggravate an Aspie's or an Autsie's symptoms and by removing the stressors, the symptoms pretty much disappear. Without the symptoms, there's very little of those disabling effects...

    Calling all athiests!!

    I've heard something similar regarding flying, flying faster than the speed of sound and even that the universe revolves around the sun. It just CAN'T happen! God never intended it! I'll browse your responses regarding "God HAD to create it all because it won't make sense otherwise" but this...

    Calling all athiests!!

    I'll have to let the avowed atheist who did volunteer work in Peru know that she was in rebellion to God because she didn't ask God if that's what He wanted her to do. I'll also have to tell the other atheist who volunteers at a soup kitchen and does other volunteer work that he's dissing God...

    The Cure.

    My apologies, Netbug and thank you, Timuchin for the excellent explanation.:blush: I'll add that I know this isn't the case for all AS and autistic sufferers, but plenty of them have their symptoms disappear when they have the toxic levels of these metals removed. I'm looking forward to...

    Calling all athiests!!

    All this trouble just to try to point to a divine being to explain why we have a conscience. You could take the cynical approach and make the assumption that you would be caught for your actions, regardless of how unlikely you would be found out. Or realize that anyone who can summon the least...

    The Cure.

    I think that trying to cure autism by 'fixing the genetic defect' is putting the cart before the horse. My son, diagnosed with high-functioning autism has seven times the safe amount of lead in his body. I think this has a lot to do with his behavior quirks. But if not, he's still the same...

    Generic Pancakes: Alter as desired

    Generic Pancakes (makes about 16 4-inch pancakes) 3 1/2 cups of flour (I usually use 2 cups rolled oats and 1 1/2 cups buckwheat. We lumberjacks like them like that ) 1/4 cup sugar (I prefer brown over white, but white sugar works ok) 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 eggs 1/2...

    Wheat pastry flour?

    The bulk place here sells two types of whole wheat flour. Hard, which they recommend for bread and soft whole wheat, which is better suited to cookies and muffins. Failing that, you could look for something that's specifically called "whole wheat pastry flour." I don't think it's all that...

    Atheists loves Santa and

    Rowena, I love that last paragraph. A real social justice kind of person, and it says a lot. I suppose it's never too early to polish up that persecution complex for some people. It would say so much more for Christians if they would simply shrug and continue wishing everyone a "Merry...
