Most religions -Even Catholicism and other Christian based religions have some good points. Evangelical atheism is just another ‘religion’ based on the belief that humans know-it-all. That seems a bit arrogant to me. I am an agnostic who believes that the final answer to explain the universe is not in yet.

Atheism. The believer sets himself as the center of the universe, and eradicates selfless expression of giving and service. Belief of nothing is based on faith that their is nothing; therefore, it is a religion.

Liberalism. Atheism + activism = liberalism.

Islam. The radical believers in this religion will not rest until the world converts. And their radical views allow them to kill others who do not believe the same.

Christophobia is nothing new on the left. Be original and focus on the real religious threats to this nation.

Wow…

…”The prodigal son doesn’t return to ask his father’s forgiveness. He barges uninvited into the house and kills the fatted calf before the old man can get a word out!”…

That echoes/resonates loud and deep Michael. Most groups (or individuals) cast outdo not retuen evolved realising in context how they deserved the shunning. They return with a chip on their shoulder, asxes to grind or swing, , the diabolical ego need to prove it was wong to dismiss them in the first place and an innate, sadistic pleasure in the suffering/chaos they can cause.

This article is definitely food for thought.

War criminal Obama is not lost nor is he damned one way or the other. He’s doing exactly as some of us thought he would do and has been doing so since Day One. And how did we know that? Because we examined his Cheney/Bush accomplice voting record and listened to what he actually said outside of his feel-good pabulum speeches designed to dupe the sheep. He never had any intention of working for We The People. He works for the corporations, the pharmaceutical industry, the military industrial complex, et al. He was a Cheney/Bush accomplice as a senator (see his voting record, which most people refused to examine during the campaign). The marketing slogans he spewed during the campaign to dupe those gullible enough to allow themselves to be duped were just that: empty marketing slogans. He has continued nearly all of the Cheney/Bush regime under the name of the Obama regime, as some of us suspected he would. He’s certainly no christian. He just plays one when he thinks the sheep will fall for it. Many D suckers who voted for this war criminal are still grasping to make excuses, defenses and apologies for him, just because he’s from their D “team.” But when Cheney/Bush were doing the same things, these D suckers were screaming about it! The D suckers are a bunch of hypocrites. Just like the Repugs, the D suckers put party-line cheer-leading above the US Constitution. Others are coming out of their stupor and denial and realizing what this war criminal really is: a fraud. But most D suckers will likely vote for him again in 2012 simply because he has a D behind his name, and they will drag out the usual “lesser of two evils” nonsense, which is what got us to where we are to begin with. Duh. Many people refuse to learn. Reminds me of the definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result (like voting for Dems/Repugs one voting cycle after the other).

In short, I Q points have nothing to do with morality.

Personally, I think the Bamster is way the hell over his head. He is now in a damn if you do and damn if you do not mode and is lost as hell.

I also firmly believe you would do any or all of the above if it advanced your personal beliefs

Fairly often I read this drivel from people who write articles:

“Obama is obviously very smart.”

Why do people feel the need to say that? I think it’s intended to pacify the Dem kool-aid drinkers. That’s the same thing that was said about War Criminals Bush and Cheney…about how smart they supposedly were. Would a smart person drone innocent people in Pakistan? Would a smart person continue the USA Patriot Act (which shreds the US Constitution)? Would a smart person vote for FISA? Would a smart person continue torture, rendition, illegal spying, would a smart person oppose a landmine ban, and so forth? DUH.

I wish that the sheep would stop putting these career war criminal politicians up on some damn pedestal. These scum of the Earth people are supposed to be OUR employees, not royalty, so there is no need to fawn over them and worship them, the way most sheep/people have been brainwashed to do. Just like most of the sheep were brainwashed into believing in the floating cloud being, who’s been asleep at the switch since at least 2000 in case people haven’t noticed.

“The modern American tourist now fills his experience with pseudo-events. He has come to expect both more strangeness and more familiarity than the world naturally offers. He has come to believe that he can have a lifetime of adventure in two weeks and all the thrills of risking his life without any real risk at all.”

People who believe that God “appeared in a blinding flash of light and spoke to Paul on the road to Damascus” will accept just about any nonsense they are told.

Ms. Samples,
Your articls made sense and was right to the point, except this “partisan” jab.
There is no REAL difference between the Democratic and the Republican parties. Both of them are owned and controlled by big money/business and are beholdent to it and serving its interests without any regards for the interests and wellbeing of the common folks.
The cultural differences between the two parties are artificial and there are a lot of members of both parties who jumped the fence culturally between the two parties.
