Schala and Janus as names for children?
« on: July 06, 2007, 02:23:37 pm »
This is a personal desire of mine, and I had to disengage with my fiancee when she laughed at the idea. What a bitch.

/sarcasm

Anyhow, I think Schala would make an awesome name for a first-born daughter, but maybe not so much Janus for a son. What do you guys think?

Fanboy...


If I had to pick a name for a girl it would will be Karen, and if it was a boy Zacharia.

I'd name my kids Onion. That way they'd be the Onion Kids!

Now that's evolution at work.

A tomato gradually evolves into a superior tasting vegetable, the Onion, over many generations.

And then gets eaten with pasta.

I'd thought you go with Tomato.

EDIT: DAMN IT MYSTIC! YOU BEAT ME TO IT!

No. No it's not, and I wish people would stop using this myth. EVOLUTION IS NOT A MEANS TO AN END NOR IS IT ABOUT MAKING SUPERIOR NEW LIFE FORMS. IT IS MERELY A LONG PROCESS OF ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE AND NICHES IN THE ENVIRONMENT THAT HAVE YET TO BE FILLED.

And Onions are better adapted to the environment of my tastebuds.

The ball is in your court, my good sir.

Yes, I am fully aware that most anti-evolutionists refuse to learn about evolution and persist in these myths...and unless they're willing to listen, I don't care to try to convince them otherwise.

It's when intelligent people who aren't foolish enough to ridicule evolution--the amount of evidence is truly staggering, and it is a theory, after all, in the scientific sense, meaning there is nothing higher(The term law being interchangeable with theory, not a higher level)--persisting in the myth as well that really pisses me off. I don't know where it started or how it started, but it has to stop. It's resulted in so much bad fiction, like X-Men. It's resulted in a lot of misinterpreted education. And, in general, it causes a lot of confusion and makes it harder for those who might be on the fence to listen to evolution.

So, forgive me...I yelled too much about it.

No, I think there's a certain logic to it: Human, to Tomato, to Onion, to Catpeople. O crap...you didn't hear that last part.

(aside) They know too much. Drag them in, my pretties!

Janus is too prone to dirty puns in my opinion...

Personally I think Schala is NOT a real name (or real good one) for kids. You COULD call her her japanese name which is sarah. thats a nice one and I think janus is actually a pretty cool name for a kid.


.......Just don't call him Magus when he's older -_-
