Ouroboros Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Click and read... Very good article. The title of the forum says "cretinist", should be "creationist", but maybe you did it because of the length restriction. Cretinist actually is pretty funny because this is the dictionarys word on it: French crétin, from French dialectal, deformed and mentally retarded person found in certain Alpine valleys, from Vulgar Latin *christinus, Christian, human being, poor fellow, from Latin Chrstinus, Christian. See Christian. I'm not kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurisaz Posted May 22, 2005 Author Share Posted May 22, 2005 While we are at it... look up "bigot" at www.dictionary.com. Bei Gott! (German) = by god!, pronounced exactly like the English "bigot" (only that we stress the "Gott")... Ain't it a perfect fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
