Wishful Thinking
A great idea from a good friend of mine.
Read moreRight Wingnuts
Christian Conservatives may have been a better name for this category (or Krazy Kristian Kooks). I realize that the right-wingnuts don’t have to be religious at all, but mostly they are, and if they are crazy right-wingers not related to religion, you’ll find them under the “Crackpots” category.
You Had To See This One Coming (Pun Intended)
Well, this should come as no surprise to anyone. Pat Robertson is now suggesting that the recent rash of natural disasters could be a signal of end times. Its always amazed me that the return of Christ to begin his thousand year reign of love and heavan on earth would be heralded by the death and destruction of millions of innocent individuals.
Read moreAlabama Senator Hank Erwin: Katrina was God's wrath
This idiot was on Scarborough Country making his point that Katrina was “the wrath of God.” I expect this sort of stupid crap from the Falwells, Dobson’s and Robertson’s…but this guy is an elected official, and more of his kind seem to get elected each cycle. That’s what is scary.
Read moreABC Becomes Pawn of Religious Right
I have learned from an article on Daily Kos that on tonight’s episode of ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, will be an extended advertisement for James Dobson’s group, Focus On The Family.
Read moreReligious Belief Increases Social Ills
The London Times has an interesting story about an article published in an academic journal. According to the study, belief in and worship of God may actually contribute to social ills.
Read moreWhy Progressives Hate George Bush?
By any objective standard, this administration is a dismal failure and has made a mockery of all the things I love about America. Things like fair elections, habeus corpus, privacy, separation of church and state, care for the less fortunate, protecting our homeland, respecting the environment, curbing the power of corporations, standing for human rights, transparency in government, respect for our military, and so many many more. Bush is steering our country back to the pre-New Deal rich-man’s playground of the Robber Baron era, while simultaneously squandering any post-9/11 worldwide goodwill and alienating what few allies we have left.
Read moreSummary Of Katrina Disaster
I thought I would make this post about Katrina, and try to move on to other things. It is a horrible disaster, and we all need to know what is going on, and understand how over government agencies are (or are not) responding to this disaster. That being said, I think there’s some fatigue to all the coverage.
Read moreAn Incredible Article By Bill Moyers About Today's Holy War In America
I can’t say enough about this article, and its call to true Christians to reject the regligious zealots, and turn America away from becoming a theocracy.
Read moreQueers Blamed for New Orleans Destruction
Well, I guess it was just a matter of time before gay people were blamed by the wingnuts for the destruction of New Orleans by Katrina. “Repent America” now has an article on their website blaming it all on the fact that New Orleans welcomed sin. An organization of Christian fundamentalists, Repent America claims the destruction brought on by Hurricane Katrina is God’s judgment against New Orleans for holding festivals like the Southern Decadence party.
Read moreHe's For the Right to Life, Well Most Of The Time
The chief wingnut himself, Pat Robertson, is now calling on the U.S. Government to assasinate the President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez.
Read moreDobson Teaches How To Make Your Son Straight
Well, his imminence, James Dobson has pinned it down. He now knows how to recognize if your child is “becoming” gay, and he can figure it out in pre-adolescence. And on top of that, he advises that fathers and sons shower together to “cure” boys from those tendencies. (I’ll swear, is that not a porn movie script.) I am not making this up. Its on his website.
