The World's Oldest Scam....Religion

We have the war on religion, the war on Christmas and whatever else the TeaNut Religious wackos of the world want to declare is under war.  But what we really have is War on Reason because anything that is within reason is suddenly jumped on by these wackos.  Of course these assholes will use anything to use as a smoke screen to take away from talking about real issues and solutions to real problems.

As somebody once said, you can’t reason with a religious wacko because if you could, there would be no religious wackos. Here is an example of religious freedom the way the zealots see it.  The Catholic Church is in a discrimination lawsuit over firing one their teachers at an Indiana school for taking vitro fertilization treatments.  The Church is arguing that its religious liberty rights protect the school from having to go to court at all.  

I realize that I just said this last month but I’m going to recycle it just in case you missed it.

The Pew Foundation has just released a report that says white evangelical Christians feel that they are the most persecuted people in America and at the Values Voter Summit in Washington this past weekend a straw poll of the 2000 attendees said that religious freedom was their number one priority.  What a load of crap. We have more religious freedom than any country on the planet. What they want is the freedom for THEIR religion to be the ONLY religion.

They already have two national holidays and are trying to take over another one. They are doing everything that they can to take over Halloween.  They want to call it the Harvest Festival or the Fall Festival.   I just read an article where they are pushing to have people carve the face of Jesus in their pumpkins. It’s Halloween, you know, spooks, goblins and scary stuff.  I guess the Holy Ghost would work if anyone knew what the Holy Ghost looked like.

There is a church on every corner and they get to spew bullshit on the radio and TV all they want. Don’t get me wrong, they have every right to spew their bullshit, but I have every right not to listen. Every time we turn around they insist that God or Jesus be involved in everything we do from our education system to the government. I for one will be greatly thankful when the rapture gets here and these boneheads will be gone.  

Here is a fine example of evangelical Christian thinking. Christian radio host Rick (I Am Not a Scientist or a Doctor, but I am a Moron) Wiles said on his broadcast last week that Ebola is probably a good thing because it would cleanse the world of gay people, atheists and sluts. Wow Ebola doesn’t kill Christians.  I guess only lions do.

And here are a couple of typical quotes from a pair of pompous, self-righteous, self-proclaimed spokesmen for God:

 “Good Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions.” ~ Jerry Falwell

"The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." –Pat Robertson


Stay tuned for future adventures.
