This is a load of bovine fecal matter! I thought those same aliens stole my eggs but I found out later they were just making me a nice quiche.

Mark Carpenter's avatar

You rate. All I got was a frittata...

Evan Hurst's avatar

If I was an alien I would also name my human-alien baby "Starburst."

larry parker's avatar

Could have been Baby Ruth.

Leave poor little Jujyfruit alone. Junior Mint is upset too.

Strawberry or orange?

Either you're not doing it right (abstinence only sex education might have led to the wrong hole) or you really need to see some doctors.

Lack of critical thinking skills + religion + probably used too much of her own supply when she was dealing meth = space baby delusion. A fertility clinic isn't the only doctor she needs.

Having experienced infertility, neither my bride nor I ever thought to imagine aliens.

Sko Hayes's avatar

You have to do a lot of meth first.

Mark Carpenter's avatar

My husband and I are also childless. Can't figure out wonder why.

Oh, wait... 😁

She's still pushing dangerous drugs. Just pushing the one called religion.

PhillyT's avatar

Exactly she traded one addiction for another one

Sko Hayes's avatar

I've seen this happen at AA meetings, people get sober, but get addicted to going to meetings. I stopped going after a year.

NOGODZ20's avatar

And they wonder why we don't take their beliefs seriously.

Maltnothops's avatar

No MRI or X-ray image of the device?

Len's avatar

It was made of a special alien material that doesn’t show up on scans or x-rays. Silly.

oraxx's avatar

Religion exuses a lot of mental illness. Both on the part of the preachers and those who believe them. The fact the burden of proof is on her seems to go sailing right over her head.

Troublesh00ter's avatar

[sigh] And the dog ate my homework. Here we go again. A WHOLE bunch of assertions. Any actual PROOF??? OF COURSE NOT! Meanwhile, what was that old saying? Oh, yeah:

And Souza ain't got any.

They think the bible is evidence and not just the claim. Getting them to think rationally requires teaching them a whole lot of basic concepts.

Maltnothops's avatar

I don’t think I have ever succeeded in getting a Christian apologist to understand the evidence/claim thing. The closest anyone came was to argue that one part of the bible is the evidence for a claim made in a different part.

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Can you say, "Circular argument," boys and girls? I KNEW that you could! 😁

Troublesh00ter's avatar

And a whole shit-ton of UNLEARNING.

Maltnothops's avatar

My entire life I have wondered whether people like this — by which I mean people who make outlandish assertions — really believe what they say or are knowingly grifting. There are so many of these people! My supposition is that the vast majority are knowingly grifting and that a few are sincerely deluded. But I could just as easily suppose the opposite. I used to wonder if Soviet leaders really thought the USSR was a workers paradise.

Apparently Gorbachev was astounded that Eastern European countries would turn to the West when he allowed them to.

Maltnothops's avatar

Speaking of genuine delusion vs. grift, I just saw commentary that Mike Lindell is blaming his loss in the MN GOP governor primary on “irregularities” involving “someone” getting illegal immigrants to vote in the GOP primary for his opponent. Delusion or grift?

Joe King's avatar

A little from column a, a little from column b.

Sko Hayes's avatar

Is anyone surprised?

Val Uptuous NotAgain's avatar

I think in both of these cases, there’s some drugs involved, reality has been permanently altered in their minds and they can’t tell their desires from what really happened.

Guys, it was the meth.

NOGODZ20's avatar

Space case.

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Rod Serling wouldn't touch THIS one with a 10-meter cattle prod.

Maltnothops's avatar

Too unbelievable.

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Serling had a LOT of respect for his audience, and his efforts to produce quality content are a strong demonstration of that.

Souza? OY!

Joe King's avatar

Have you ever seen a preacher who respected their audience?

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Well ... the pastors at the Northfield Community Church I grew up in weren't anywhere near as far out there as Ms. Souza clearly is, and they were also decent and engaging people. Within the confines of a relatively conventional Christian belief system, they didn't insult my intelligence, at least not back then.

Souza's noise makes them look positively staid!

Joe King's avatar

Maybe I should have specified TV preachers.

Maltnothops's avatar

I put my father in the same camp — but I could be biased.

NOGODZ20's avatar

There would have to be a major twist ending.

Maltnothops's avatar

Or it could have been the series ending episode. FU audience!

Troublesh00ter's avatar

I actually saw and heard Rod Serling speak at Amasa Stone Chapel on the campus of Case Western Reserve University, back in 1973. He was an engaging speaker, utterly opposed to censorship or network corporate BS. I just cannot feature his jerking around his audience.

It's just not who he was.

NOGODZ20's avatar

I saw him speak in 1970. He even took a question from me about his appearance on "The American Sportsman." He said he was glad I asked and went on to explain (wish I could remember what he said. It was a long time ago).

After his talk, he invited us on to the stage. I got to shake hands and talk with him. I was surprised to find I was 2 inches taller than he was (I'm 5'6").

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Very cool. The year before, the guest speaker was Isaac Asimov!

Zarawhoya's avatar

But being Transgender is unbelievable???

Of course she is a former meth head lol

"‘Cause eggs—you get hundreds of thousands of eggs when… you’re born with hundreds of thousands of eggs if you’re a female. "

I suppose this is the upcoming PROJECT 2025 test. If a newborn infant comes out of the chute pre-packaged with hundreds of thousands of eggs (of any variety, one presumes) = WOMAN!

One egg less = NOT WOMAN

So simple!

Souza's baby is a xenomorph confirmed.

Troublesh00ter's avatar

Don't tell Hudson that. He'll freak out! "Game over, man, GAME OVER!!!"

Val Uptuous NotAgain's avatar

I have been watching Community with my husband lately, there’s a character on that show called Starburns because he shaves his sideburns into stars. Maybe that’s what the baby’s name is supposed to be referring to, it’s just a nickname.

larry parker's avatar

Starburns - the right sides of ships.

You gotta concede her creativity. Some people shoot up nightclubs for attention. At least this "Christian" preacher gets her attention in a less immediately lethal way.

larry parker's avatar

0 Points for creativity. It's been done before.

I miss the old days when the fairies were swapping out human babies for changelings.

Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz's avatar

You can't prove aliens aren't fairies.

I can tell you with absolute assurance that my partner and I have never changed out any human babies for changelings.
