Oh my, when it comes to Beastie, where do I begin? Should I mention her mastery of Mesoamerican minutiae which allows her to go head-to-head with the Mopologetic greats? Or should I perhaps mention her willingness to obtain and read all the books which the Mopologists bandy about and actually call them on their distortions? Or do I begin with her admirable articulation and proficiency with the English language? Or do I mention her always-calm, always-reasonable demeanor?
Aw heck, I give up. There's too much about Beastie which is praiseworthy, as I'm sure many of you agree. So if anyone has anything nice to say about Beastie, or perhaps congratulations on her newfound goddess status, now is the time and this is the place to do so.

I second that. Not to derail the thread or anything, but I can only imagine how many beats Juliann's heart skipped when she first found out that someone was actually reading her beloved "apostate" book in order to check up on her.
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"
After the rousing ovation given for the apostate school of pundits thread, I searched it out...and it is quite a good read. So Scratch...does that thread merit Hall of Fame status (considering it also has the dartagnan/Kevin Graham element)?

Yay Beastie! It's always interesting to read your posts. I admire the work you've done educating yourself about mesoamerica---you know I'm all for continuing ed!
I hadn't known the origin of your moniker, but the story of "beastie" as an ur-goddess is great. It's also one of the names we call our lovely black cat, when we're not calling him by his "real name:" Blixa.
Maybe I can post more here when the semester is over and my sabbatical starts, but then again, I'll be busy at work on my book project.
