- mtrip, on 10/10/2007, -0/+183She states that she doesn't have time to think about whether the Earth is flat or not because she has to put food on the table, but from the looks of it, that's a problem she seems to have pretty much locked up.
- sheasie, on 10/10/2007, -31/+203The problem is simple: If you acknowledge that any part of the bible is wrong, then the floodgates open: Maybe other parts of the bible are wrong too?!
- tehpwnrate, on 10/10/2007, -2/+141Looks like she's busier feeding herself than her kids.
- Gadren, on 10/10/2007, -0/+139Sadly, this isn't even about the Bible here... at least then there would be an excuse for this hideous perversion of the human mind. This is pure ignorance and arrogance (note that she doesn't even care about whether or not the earth is flat!).
- jaredpariah, on 10/10/2007, -12/+112This pretty much says it all for the state of American public education system.
- TroubleInMind, on 10/10/2007, -2/+98Could someone seriously tell me how this woman got a job as a co-host of a national television program? She's not smart, she's not attractive, what credentials does she have?
- hlcno, on 10/10/2007, -0/+92I NEVER LOOKED INTO IT! wtf does that even mean!!!
- SonicRush, on 10/10/2007, -21/+108Where does the Bible say the earth is flat?
- synthox, on 10/10/2007, -2/+89I can say one thing with certainty, her stomach is not flat.
- monkeyrun, on 10/10/2007, -6/+92Turns out Rosie wasn't so bad after all.
- funkyshepherd, on 10/10/2007, -1/+77This woman has a CHILD.
- sabach, on 10/10/2007, -1/+67Forget the religion spin. My question is how does someone who apparently has no basic education become a host on a national television program?
- EvilGeniusTodd, on 10/10/2007, -4/+69Which is of course irrelevant to this story.
The question isn't whether or not some religious people realize the earth is a sphere. The issue is why should anyone think otherwise. Any system of thought that teaches it's practitioners to reject accepted scientific standards, only on the basis of theological convenience, should be rejected utterly. - xstarsprinklesx, on 10/10/2007, -0/+57"It never entered my mind"?! She's never bloody seen a space photo of Earth?
- nascarthunder, on 10/10/2007, -7/+62http://palimpsest.typepad.com/frogsandravens/pictures/earth.jpg
...Pwned - FreakyD, on 10/10/2007, -5/+57OH MY ***** GOD........You have got to be ***** me.
She's responsible for kids? time to start the debate about giving people licenses to procreate. - seks03, on 10/10/2007, -2/+50dumb as a box of rocks
- nicksauce, on 10/10/2007, -0/+45The greeks proved that it wasn't flat 2000 years ago. And here we are today.
- mrlyons, on 10/22/2007, -31/+75I don't believe the bible says the world is flat, anywhere. I'm not religious at all, but I'm not a fan of people bashing religion whenever they THINK it's applicable.
This is plain stupidity. There are plenty of religious people out there who know the earth is a sphere. - cleric85, on 10/10/2007, -0/+41I am utterly baffled. Was she ever educated?
- martyFREEDOM, on 10/10/2007, -2/+42Photoshopped by the government to control the masses.
- wolfkeeper, on 10/14/2007, -10/+50It's not a circle it's a sphere. Circles *are* flat.
- kotatsu, on 10/10/2007, -1/+40Why is a mentally retarded person being allowed to host a TV show?
- Chubby51, on 10/10/2007, -0/+39There is something quite wicked really when someone tries to hide behind their own children like this. Almost blaming them for her lack of curiosity (to be kind).
- mikesbaker, on 10/10/2007, -19/+57thank you for your bigotry. let me correct you: the view = stupidity
- ToadLeg, on 10/10/2007, -5/+43From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliocentrism#Religious_disputes_over_heliocentrism
"Psalm 93:1, Psalm 96:10, and Chronicles 16:30 state that "the world is firmly established, it cannot be moved." Psalm 104:5 says, "[the LORD] set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved." Ecclesiastes 1:5 states that "the sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises.""
And about what the church did to people:
"But as the controversy progressed and the Church took a harder line toward Copernican ideas after 1616, the Jesuits moved toward Tycho's teachings; after 1633, the use of this system was almost mandatory. For advancing heliocentric theory Galileo was put under house arrest for the last several years of his life." - shaelen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+37That she is something the general american public can relate to, she is just like them!
- DukeMojo, on 10/10/2007, -31/+67Isaiah 11:12
Revelation 7:1
Job 38:13
Jeremiah 16:19

- tehtopher, on 10/10/2007, -7/+40In Daniel 4:11, there is a reference to a tree that is visible from "all the corners of the earth". The only way for this to be literally possible is for the Earth to be flat. On a spherical Earth, the best you can do is make it visible to 50% of the surface (if it were to grow infinitely tall) without having to make the tree wider than the Earth.
- GawtMilk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+33...because it's one of the few jobs that requires no brain activity whatsoever?
- circuitron, on 10/10/2007, -0/+31watch the youtube version posted above, it's a bit longer.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=9ACobXN7_p8
it ends with the priceless quote "we live in a world where babies are born in sperm". - UtopiaInTheSky, on 10/10/2007, -3/+34Looks flat.
- SirNoobius, on 10/10/2007, -4/+34typical walmart person
- tehpwnrate, on 10/10/2007, -7/+37Maybe I missed it, but when did she say it had anything to do with the Bible?
- joot2112, on 10/10/2007, -0/+30She SHOULD care that Earth is round -- NASA has used that fact to put satellites in space that help broadcast her dumb ass.
- atheinostic, on 10/10/2007, -10/+39Round objects don't have ends.
- Sil369, on 10/10/2007, -4/+33World ain't flat, it's cubed stupid.
- JimXugle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+27I would like to request that you retract your statement and apologize to the box and it's associates, the rocks.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+28people fall off the edge of the earth all the time.
- Shorties, on 10/10/2007, -10/+36I never thought I would say this... I miss Rosie
- KMye, on 10/10/2007, -0/+26I don't think she even understood the question. This show is a never-ending train wreck.
- smacksaw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+25She accurately reflects the key viewer demographic. Unattractive dumbasses who are at home during prime productivity hours when they could be working or at least tending to their litter of kids. I'm sure PBS has Sesame Street or something good on during this show. Unless you are a bitter, childless, unemployable shrew, there's no reason to watch this farce of a show. This woman? She's bitter and obviously otherwise unemployable (look at her problems even feeding her offspring), except she should be childless given how frighteningly and willfully ignorant she is. She probably watched The View when she should have been watching Nova or the National Geographic or Discovery Channel.
- kindrobot, on 10/10/2007, -2/+24This stuff is just bat-***** insane. I know someone who encouraged her husband to avoid paying child support once he had the money to do so because "we never needed to before, and your kid is fine, so why start now?" This, of course backfired in a big way years later and she did NOT come to his rescue after the fact. The same woman when asked why she didn't use e-mail replied that "we never needed e-mail before, so why would we need it now"?
People like this amaze me. By their twisted logic, they should be living like the Amish. But no, they get in their SUVs, go boating in motor boats on vacation, shop at grocery stores instead of growing or raising their own food, use electric light, subscribe to satellite tv, wash their clothing in washing machines, mow their lawns with riding lawnmowers, microwave their dinners, shower with hot water, make home movies on these things called video tapes, bank with a card instead of going in person... the list goes on and on.
The best thing we can do for these people and for the rest of us is call them out on it in public whenever possible. Sometimes, just calling these people idiots and letting them know how ashamed we are of them is actually the best thing to do. We are far too sensitive about the feelings of people who refuse to acknowledge the world around them, while continuing to act as thought they have supreme knowledge and complete understanding based upon nothing but the ever-protected but nebulous "spirituality" they cling to like a baby blanket. They can believe what they want, but when they spread it around claiming they're right beyond reproach and then influence or even write laws based on these misunderstandings, we can do no less than consider them enemies of reason and treat them accordingly as individuals. The individuals part is VERY important because the individual religion itself is not the issue at all. - thewhits, on 10/10/2007, -2/+24Jeez, it's like it's too hard for her to think past just basic necessities. It's a wonder she can do anything at all. And take you kid to the public library, and sit him in front of lots of books that aren't the bible. It's just a book too.
- vtron, on 10/10/2007, -3/+24The problem is that the bible is (supposed to be) the word of GOD. If you're Christian, it doesn't matter what the people that wrote the bible knew. If human error and lack of knowledge plays a part in the bible, it cannot be the word of god.
- zachgc, on 10/10/2007, -4/+25It frightens me that you know her name.
- brufleth, on 10/10/2007, -2/+21No many people do anymore. Even people who claim to be christian often only have a vague idea of the Christmas story and maybe the Easter story and beyond that they just assume its a sit com about bearded guys and their wacky adventures.
