Shame!
Not really. Boutons-bot's ESL skills are not up to snuff. Singular is easily parsed to reveal discreet. But, he wont find that on thinkprogress.borg.

trashing talking singularity? you pretentiously misuse singular. What's your problem with single?
And the article was about that one poll. Should they have waited until they had many polls?
polling of who tea baggers are brings up the same demographics. white, ignorant, uneducated.
Back that shit up, bot.

You are correct. Very subtle, senyor. I think you mean discrete, tho.

Well I can't argue that but I don't see the point of limiting the conversation to just the OP.

How would one go about proving causation in such a case though? I think correlation is the best that can be found.

What I meant was, would it even be possible to show causation? "Look, we gave 100 atheists brain damage, and 70 of those atheists then starting believing in a monotheistic God!" :lol
