So they (claim to) have found more pieces to the true cross.

What are the chances it's just a piece of wood and they're jumping to a great PR conclusion? Just like every time they find a boat its the Ark?

Pretty good.  When they debunk it, I'm always looking for dry scraps of wood for my fire pit.

Wonder how much of a forest they're up to with all the pieces of wood they keep claiming are the true cross being dug up.

Found rock in desert: absolute, unconditional proof of jesus.

Millions of pieces of evidence proving that evolution is a viable, repeatable theory: total bullshit, pushes creationism.

Getting real tired of this shit.

Michael Gloch if the scraps they found have now formed a living forest, maybe I should be taking this more seriously. (Grin)

Despite the title, the archaeologists make no claim it is the true cross, only a relic some community veneated as such.

The associated poll is pretty disheartening.

People in Turkey like selling pieces of Noah's Ark and Jesus junk to fools.  Funny how that works.  :-)

Should be plenty of old crosses laying about...crucifixion wasn't just for future religious pop stars.

That chunk of wood could be anything! For all I know, some poor fellow could've dropped a small part of the table's leg.

Wow. They found a piece of a cross in a church.....

Yup, I'm definitely convinced that the "holy thing" is part of of Jesus' cross.

(Seriously, how strange is it to find a cross in a fucking church?)

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
