The born again Cultists are one of our greatest threats, not terrorism

[mopaul]

seriously, these are the people we should be the most worried about, the hypnotized.

1. I totally agree. I feel like I'm stuck in Innsmouth.

[Howardx]

10. excellent

an hpl reference!

[Hubert Flottz]

2. Why do you think they need to be deprogrammed to return to

normal?

The only thing Bush believes in is Purple Jesus, because he's seen plenty of that!

[President Jesus]

3. You think that statement is any less absurd than Robertson's?

...when he said the greatest threat of all time to this nation is activists judges?

Both are serious eye-rollers.

4. I think MoPaul's on to something

How many terrorist acts have been committed in the US since 9/11? Small ones, certainly--I consider arson in any form a terrorist act, and it's still as popular as ever--but nothing huge and earthshattering.

Now consider: Who's affected? Let's say the Evil Iraqi Terrorists Who We're Fighting Over There So We Won't Have To Fight Them Over Here go to Seattle and sink a ferry. Certainly the people who use the ferry they sunk are affected (at least until the state can put the backup ferry in service and lay down a new one), and most definitely the people using the ferry when it went down are affected. But as a resident of North Carolina? It doesn't affect me. (9/11 affected me a lot--plenty of my customers stopped printing after 9/11 because, apparently, the boogeymen were coming and when the boogeymen are coming it's in bad taste to try to get people to buy machine tools. Unfortunately for me, none of my customers at the time were selling anything that cured anthrax.)

Contrast this with the fundamentalists trying to get abortion and birth control banned. That's going to affect all of us a lot. There will be more pregnancies. More women dying from botched homemade abortions. More children left in garbage cans to die. An overload of children left at police stations, firehouses and hospitals. A lot less sex. Lots more women walking funny because they've chosen "hillbilly birth control" without knowing how to do it right. Even more couples forgoing sex altogether because they don't want kids and...well, sex for pleasure is supposed to be pleasurable for both partners, dammit!

5. I agree I have no use for the Fristians

But the liberal christians and the church goers who can see other points of view rock.

[earth mom]

6. They all belong in the psych ward...

oh yeah, I forgot, there's no funding for the mentally ill. :sarcasm:

And meanwhile, *Co wants to screen OUR KIDS for mental illness! Sick Bastards! :mad:

[Catholic Sensation]

7. wow

i thought wide spread, unintelligent generalizations were only done by the right.

[GreenPartyVoter]

8. Well I don't take that as a slam on all of us Chrisitans.. just the nutty

fundagelical dominionist ones.

[Catholic Sensation]

9. then say the fundamentalists

and the unintelligent part was the general idea of his thesis.

[TWiley]

11. Now that is the truth. It is a contageous mental illness.

No facts or proof needed to support any claim. It is true because my preacher said so. Furthermore, church media has become nothing more than a free tax-exempt propaganda duct for the bushtapo.
