Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

I gotta love this kind of ingenuity:
It's not that Sam Kimery objects to the views expressed on Fox News. The creator of the "Fox Blocker" contends the channel is not news at all. Kimery figures he's sold about 100 of the little silver bits of metal that screw into the back of most televisions, allowing people to filter Fox News from their sets, since its August debut.
Kimery says, unsurprisingly, that he's gotten a quite a bit of monkey mail - the sort of badly misspelled and incoherent rants which the proprietor of any popular website is likely to get. But he also claims to have gotten death threats, which are a whole `nother ball of wax. The reporter on the story apparently didn't ask to see them (why is that such a hard thing to do?), but after Hunter's "Blood Sport" series, I'm inclined to believe Kimery:
The Tulsa, Okla., resident also has received thousands of e-mails, both angry and complimentary - as well as a few death threats.
"Apparently the making of terroristic threats against those who don't share your views is a high art form among a certain core audience," said Kimery, 45."Remember, there's good stuff in American culture, too. It's just that by "good stuff" we mean "attacking the French," and Germany's been doing that for ages now, so, well, where does that leave us?" - ElokComment

LOL, yeah I think blocking other people's tv's (if we could somehow create such a technology) would attract the attention of the FCC.Originally posted by Kuciwalker

The signal is still transmitted at a certain frequency. If you plugged in a signal generator to the co-ax cable coming into your house, tuned it to the frequency that FOXNews is transmitted at and had it generate garbage then you'd be able to **** up a lot of people's reception....12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET
