Hell Hath No Fury ...

like a few Tuscan Monks. Ah yes, more religious nonsense. Upset by recent thefts of bibles from their church in Florence, the monks prayed for god to smite the thief with a bout of diarrhea. Hmmm, maybe the thief will leave a little deposit next time to assure the monks that his digestive system is quite intact.

Seriously, if there were a god, I have to think that he/she would consider this kind of prayer, at the very least spam and might he/she not wonder wtf happened to vengeance being his/her province?

Christians are just so damn hypocritical, inane and predictable. Given Obama's abysmal performance, another one of these wack jobs may end up in the White House too.

Damn, He's Good

I've heard of being honored with an award posthumously but performing a miracle after your death ... that John Paul. The catholic church ever trying for relevancy.

Mosque Mania

I admit, I'm against the mosque at ground zero (not that it's actually at ground zero but that's another issue entirely) but I'd be against it anywhere - as well as being against the churches of catholic, baptist, evangelical ...etc.. and most especially the mormon cult buildings that mar the landscape in these parts. I'm against them because I believe we'd be a whole helluva a lot better off if people would lose their ridiculous superstitions and act on rational thought rather than faith.

Yes, we have freedom of religion allowed by the first amendment but we supposedly also have separation of church and state - with tax exempt status (the government determining which entities qualify for exemption) how is that not 'establishing religion'?

That said, on a scale of things to worry about - forget the mosque. This should be of much greater concern.

Yes, Virginia, There Is No Evolution

Yes, some omniscient, omnipotent Intelligent Designer (spelled G-O-D) created toads that look like dead leaves on a forest floor, insects that mimic flower parts, birds that blend into tree bark and ... ... ... why would he/she not? [pic is link to Nat'l Geo article]

Now if we could just get members of Congress and the current White House resident to imitate individuals who actually cared about and represented those they were sent to DC to serve. I'm thinking Jesus will return before that happens.
