Is John Kasich 9 years old?

ModernEsquire — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 18:57:40 +0000

“I can’t say that I sit down and say, ‘OK, let me have a prayer here on whether we should raise taxes or not.’ I don’t pray for that.

“I have in the past prayed for a new baseball glove.”

John Kasich denies he’s asked God for sound policy decisions, but only because he apparently thinks the Creator of the Universe is Santa Claus.

Pam Geller’s Personal Jihad

Joseph — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 06:31:51 +0000

I don’t know about you but I remember being 17 all too well. I remember thinking I was the smartest person in the world. And I remember thinking my parents were complete idiots who didn’t understand me or any of the teenage turmoil, tension and occasional trauma I was going through.

It turns out I was wrong. No big surprise there.

Sure my parents weren’t always right. But they did their best while I was at my worst and I really regret putting them through all of that stupid drama. In the end we all got through it though. Primarily [...]

More Jesus Sightings

Jesus really is everywhere. Everywhere there is food, at least.

He’s in our Peeps. He’s in our toast.

And now- he’s showing up in our Cheetos too.

(see below for full video!)

Funny thing is- in the process of searching for a photo of the above cheesy Jesus I saw on TV- I found another one!

I can’t wait to see where he shows up next.

Tony Perkins Whines About CNN Compassion Forum

Joseph — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 16:09:39 +0000

Tony Perkins is pissed because someone decided to host a religious event without inviting him. Boo hoo.

CNN’s “Compassion Forum”, held this past Sunday, allowed both Democratic candidates to answer questions about their faith that, thankfully, didn’t come from Christofascist asshats like Perkins.

As a result, the forum focused on issues that real Christians should care about. Things like poverty, human rights and the worldwide AIDS crisis.

According to Perkins, these are not the issues closest to Christians’ hearts.

Instead, Tony claims that: “our priority as Christians should be as those of the Founding Fathers; protect the sanctity of [...]

The long, hard slog

Eric wrote this earlier today in reaction to Obama’s speech about race.

I got the sense today that Barack Obama was tired. Tired of the hatred and fear-mongering insanity that has gripped not just Republicans, but Democrats as well. I know I get tired when I have to endure the same types of slurs I saw used against blacks in the south now retooled to attack anyone of a Middle Eastern heritage or having a name that is not familiar to the average Anglo-Saxon Caucasoid. I get tired when I see the same type of fear and ignorance [...]

Will Hillary Reject and Denounce Pastor Manning?

Eric — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 00:24:35 +0000

I’m beginning to think there is a flatal flaw in religion if there are so many out there who spout the most horrendous of slurs and vulgarity during time when they should be inspiring their “flock” with words of divine inspiration. This Manning guy is nuts. He sounds like a Hillary (and Bill) supporter who is coming unglued like some of her other supporters and apologists.

This almost looks like a parody on SNL:

This one should lose any tax exempt status there was (but it won’t):

This one you probably won’t be able to finish:

Easter Bunny as Antichrist: Proof Through Anagrams

Joseph — Sun, 16 Mar 2008 21:48:46 +0000

With Easter quickly approaching, I was really starting to expect some ‘War on Easter’ articles and posts from the bible-thumping right. It’s pretty pretty quiet though. Until today.

That’s when I came across this article in the Christian-themed Citizen USA newspaper about that dangerous false prophet: The Easter Bunny.

In it the author warns us to keep ‘fanciful characters’ like the Easter Bunny far away from our children because such characters ‘threaten their faith in the true and living God.’

The problem is: kids, like all people, want to believe in stuff. And it’s dangerous to let them [...]

Speaking of Candidate/Pastor Connections

Eric — Fri, 14 Mar 2008 03:09:48 +0000

How quickly do you think the likes of Ben Keeler and his cohorts (so very caught up with Obama’s pastors words) will mention this one:

Senator John McCain hailed as a spiritual adviser an Ohio megachurch pastor who has called upon Christians to wage a “war” against the “false religion” of Islam with the aim of destroying it.

I cannot tell you how important it is that we understand the true nature of Islam, that we see it for what it really is. In fact, I will tell you this: I do not believe our country can truly [...]

McCain seeks – and gets – the endorsement of a prominent Jew, Muslim, and Catholic hater

Brian — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 20:43:28 +0000

While Obama was fighting off implications that the unsought endorsement of Farrakhan somehow reflected poorly on him (despite repeated and clear denunciations and repudiations of Farrakhan and his past statements), John McCain was actively courting the endorsement of a right-wing pastor with equally disturbing views.

Hagee has offered some highly provocative views on a variety of subjects.

For instance, he linked Hurricane Katrina to the gay rights movement: ” … All of the city was punished because of the sin that happened there in that city.”

He has also denounced the Roman Catholic Church as “the great whore of [...]

Common sense prevails…

In a development in the incident that has been beat to death by rightwingers here as proof that Islam is not a religion of peace, a British schoolteacher in Sudan has been pardoned by the President of Sudan and had the remainder of her 15 day jail sentence commuted.

A British teacher in Sudan jailed over the naming of a teddy bear has been released from police custody, the British Embassy in Khartoum said, several hours after Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir pardoned her.

Gillian Gibbons, freed after Sudan’s president Omar al-Bashir granted her a presidential pardon earlier Monday, apologized [...]
