Oh, when the saints

[ippy]

slough - (1) a swamp
            (2) A situation characterized by lack of progress or activity

There is a third use of the word in British English, but it is as a verb and MfPNP uses the term in an adjectival sense, suggesting that this can be discounted in the context.

slew    - (1) Turn or slide violently or uncontrollably (this is the word used when rail tracks are
                    forcibly repositioned whilst still connected to others)
            (2) Past of 'slay'
            (3) A large number or quantity of something informal, chiefly 7North American

MfPNP, I have taken these from the Oxford Online Dictionary site.

Is that like when people get mixed up and refer to others that they think have been indoctrinated and then get it wrong and say brainwashed insted of what they really mean?

Brainwashing is just a more invasive form of indoctrination.

Whether any of Vlad's celebrity atheists are actually courageous,I don't know but Vlad himself is considered certainly brave in mentioning Rushdie in that manner since he then associates himself with the depraved loons who have threatened Rushdie's life because he wrote a book.

He said something similar in the original version of #55 - the one that vanished,
