Having bought into that narrative hook, line, and sinker, there are a lot of people living in the US who are very angry now that the whole edifice is showing signs of immanent collapse. In the face of a cosmos that fails to cater to their sense of entitlement, a number of people follow religions that make believers feel special, promise them some version of a pie in the sky, and generally offer them a ton of excuses for not doing anything real.. other than shouting out their blame and intolerance.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747450215034568033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-31191016807275962352012-03-07T18:33:25.925-05:002012-03-07T18:33:25.925-05:00You may know, or can guess, where Oklahoma's v...You may know, or can guess, where Oklahoma's vote went yesterday. I saw a clip on TV yesterday of a woman who had just voted, talking about how "we vote from our hearts here", meaning how we vote with God. That's the problem with lack of education in poor areas, people simply can't think and so religion rules their lives and they in turn work hard to make it rule everyone else's. It really is terribly sad.Rubye Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511953177053448513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-50761967116679135812012-03-07T09:14:49.210-05:002012-03-07T09:14:49.210-05:00I did a long reasoned comment and blogger ate it.I did a long reasoned comment and blogger ate it.Kulkurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09198195648066700925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-3985462689435412602012-03-07T09:10:45.627-05:002012-03-07T09:10:45.627-05:00The theocrats are scary.

When they call for things like prayer in school, ask them whose prayers will be the ones used??? Of course because they all believe theirs is the one true way, so it'll be according to their cult.<br /><br />Ever since the FuckingRepublicans started courting the Bible-Banger vote this country has been going down hill. We need to convince the Bible-Bangers that they have been played all this time. The party has strung them along with their wedge issues, but if they were to actually deliver on their promises the party is afraid they'd lose the Bible-Banger vote.<br /><br />I tried telling my cousin that the FuckingRepublicans were playing him on both the religion and the military issues, but it fell on deaf ears. Still doesn't want to believe he has been played for a fool!!!Kulkurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09198195648066700925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-3228182327678037582012-03-07T07:51:26.174-05:002012-03-07T07:51:26.174-05:00Amen.

The preferred method after 1800 was the French inovation of the guillotine, but if the pope was feeling testy, much more grisly and entertaining methods could be employed. The Vatican used capitol punishment for any offense the pope saw fit. Probably, over half the executions were for religious related ideological transgressions.<br />The last executions took place in the 1880's right before the Italian Army occupied the Vatican. Actually, the Vatican Death Penalty was reinstated in 1929 through 1969 but it was never used. That was the Mussolini effect. He let them have the power again.<br /><br />Why do atheists have so little voice in political discourse?<br />I will quote my main man, Dr. Biggee Dee D Dawkins who said, "Indeed, organizing atheists has been compared to herding cats, because they think independently and will not conform to authority".....YO!microdothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01564820031343630871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-68620360427371126812012-03-07T01:02:47.177-05:002012-03-07T01:02:47.177-05:00Unfortunately the religious nut bars have set the ...Unfortunately the religious nut bars have set the agenda for too long. There are devout liberal Christians and devout liberal Muslims but the religious right would say otherwise and burn them or cut off their heads. Being a devout liberal atheist or devout liberal agnostic is no help against these people either.<br />A well written rant. I may borrow from it with appropriate credit.<br /><br />The only downside to being an atheist is there is no one to yell to when I have an orgasm. <br />Q: What does a woman say after great sex?<br />A: Thank you, Blog Fodder.<br />Alternate A: Some men will never knowThe Blog Fodderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11441978691701289074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-33178729327412058452012-03-06T23:51:13.587-05:002012-03-06T23:51:13.587-05:00face it..religion is bad..faith or spirituality is...face it..religion is bad..faith or spirituality is good.yellowdoggrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14906624317290990109noreply@blogger.com
