Images that make you laugh

So you attribute these geographical correlations to African-Americans and entirely to African-Americans?

No, they're saying one COULD probably select the maps to tell that story.

You could probably also select maps of Mormon distribution and diabetes distribution and 'confirm' the holy benefits of their religious dietary restrictions.

Kind of like that cartoon. Before women had the vote, no nuclear wars. Not saying there's a 'connection,' per se, but you have to notice that the only nuclear war was after women got the vote.

Except that there is a lot more to it than just those maps. There are a very large number of social ills that have been shown to correlate with religiosity, and not just in America. In fact those other studies that correlate religiosity with those social ills probably factor out race, so trying to pin it on African-Americans is... well let's be kind and call it bizarre and ignorant about scientific studies that have been done on this topic.

But I would like to thank thebeave for letting us know how he feels about African-Americans. I honestly did not know that about him. You learn something new every day!

But what you posted was 'just those maps.'
So, kinda makes it an inside joke. Something that's funny if the listener can bring additional information to the joke.

Or, you flat out make something up out of thin air every day by projecting shit onto someone else.

The other correlations are well-known by every on this forum as they come up frequently when debating theists on their claims of moral superiority. It was hardly necessary to mention the scientific studies at all with this audience.

Of course. I'm making it up.

thebeave wasn't saying anything about African Americans. He? was saying something, as others did, about causation and correlation. And about the pitfalls of interpreting graphical information.

Cheer up, we're still on your side.

Star Wars Merchandising Is Even More Absurd Outside the US

http://gizmodo.com/star-wars-marketing-is-even-more-absurd-outside-the-us-1748343045


Human culture has reached a point of no return. The overwhelming barrage of Star Wars merchandise has pulverized the last remaining crumbs of our consumer dignity. Consider this product and cry with us: Star Wars Chicken Hot Dogs with Built-in Ketchup. And it gets worse.
The following photos were taken at ten separate supermarkets in Hungary, just two days before the premiere of the new Star Wars movie. The movie’s not even out yet, and it’s almost hard to find food that’s not Star Wars-branded. What’s especially odd is that the new food items aren’t even necessarily specific to The Force Awakens. Behold the force of Lucasfilm’s marketing machine.
