It seems Pope Francis needs to brush up on his Tertullian!

It has been reported (in The ChristLast Media, I must note) that the current Pope does not like the phrase "lead us not into temptation...

"Let no freedom be allowed to novelty, because it is not fitting that any addition should be made to antiquity. Let not the clear faith and belief of our forefathers be fouled by any muddy admixture." -- Pope Sixtus III

Scientists: Non-moderate mohammedan violence is good for whales

Unplanned 9/11 analysis links noise, whale stress

Researchers say an ocean experiment that was accidentally conducted amid the shipping silence after Sept. 11 has shown the first link between underwater noise and stress in whales.

The analysis was led by a New England Aquarium researcher. It showed a drop in the stress-related hormone in right whales following the attacks. The drop coincided with a period of significantly lower ocean noise after ship traffic came to a near-standstill for security reasons following the terror attacks.

The analysis combined data from two experiments that happened to be going on simultaneously. One involved acoustic recordings of right whales in Canada's Bay of Fundy. The other collected samples of whale feces, which contain stress-indicating hormones.

It wasn't until 2009 that a researcher realized the data existed for the analysis.

First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
