God works in misogynistic ways.

I made up this parody of "God works in mysterious ways" yesterday and included it in this DU General Discussion exchange. A Google search returns no hits for the phrase when enclosed in quotes so I guess it's original. Maybe it'll catch on, time and Google will tell.

"Science makes my brain hurt."

Good discussion on how "poisoners" has been consistently mistranslated to "witches." It's not the only one. The KJV is full of the word "woman" mistranslated as "handmaiden," like we're all their natural servants.

That's why I chose to live with a cat.
