Blasphemer! Scientists don't lie. They're the priests of the new religion!

I'll be petitioning for your ex-communication, personally.

Representatives from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals went undercover to get footage of a sheep farmer using curse words in front of a flock at Boorungie Station in Australia — then used it to file a complaint claiming the behavior constituted abuse. “The allegation was that bad language was used by an employee on the property in front of the sheep, and that they could have been offended by the use of bad language,” station operator Ken Turner said, according to Australia’s ABC.

Just as I suspected, sheep abusers must be stopped.

Some Native Hawaiians disapprove of 'Aloha' movie title

HONOLULU (AP) — Some Native Hawaiians disapprove of the name of a movie filmed and set in Hawaii, saying that titling it "Aloha" is a disrespectful misappropriation of culture and simplifies a word that's rich with meaning.

The Cameron Crowe film starring Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams and Emma Stone, opens Friday, with a screening in Honolulu three days before. The concerns are based largely on a trailer that depicts a military-themed love-story that appears devoid of a genuine connection to Hawaiian culture.

In the Hawaiian language, aloha is not just a greeting or a word to convey love. It has other meanings including, compassion, mercy, grace.

"Aloha actually comes from two Hawaiian words: alo — which means the front of a person, the part of our bodies that we share and take in people. And ha, which is our breath," Janet Mock, a Native Hawaiian, said on her MSNBC Shift show "So Popular!" where she panned the title. "When we are in each other's presence with the front of our bodies, we are exchanging the breath of life."

The trailer is an example of "typical Hollywood," where "Hawaii is the verdant background for white fantasies," said Ty Kawika Tengan, chair of the ethnic studies department at the University of Hawaii's Manoa campus.

"It's been so appropriated in so many different ways — made into a commodity, made into a slogan," he said of the word aloha. "It gets so divorced from important indigenous Hawaiian context. ... It's romanticized, literally, into a romantic comedy."

The title doesn't bother all Native Hawaiians.

"If you look at what aloha means, how can it be bad no matter how it's used?" said TV and radio personality Kimo Kahoano. "I think Hawaii is the best place in the world. And the reason is aloha."

There is a movement supported by some Hawaiian Natives for their own independent country. However, the Ataka Bill has nothing to do with that.
