Blasphemies and other Forms of Artistic Expression

BBC NEWS Americas US mayor regrets 'God comments' I'm not even going to comment on the 'chocolate' remark - I'm pretty sure that the comment was made in the context of the audience. (Now, if was going to be fair, I would try to compare it in some sense to Trent Lott's comments a while a go, but I wouldn't believe the comparisons anyway.) Said New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin - "Surely God is mad at America. He sent us hurricane after hurricane after hurricane, and it's destroyed and put stress on this country . . . " Well, we all know that 'for God so loved the world, he gave us a bunch of assholes to speak in his name with conflicting messages.' I'm sure that both Robertson Nagin believe themselves 'born again' xians, and on more than one occasion they felt that big G gave them words of encouragement; it's always the publisist that has to tell them that they have their heads in their ass.

BBC NEWS Middle East US TV host sorry for Sharon slur From BBC Article - "My concern for the future safety of your nation led me to make remarks which I can now view in retrospect as inappropriate and insensitive in light of a national grief experienced because of your father's illness," said Mr Robertson's letter [to Sharon's Son Omri] . He kept flapping those jaws until God fined him $50 Million. Punishment for passing judgement, maybe? Offhand, I would think that taht would be the kind of thing you'd want to leave up to your God. Even the Pope doesn't have the cajones to say that kind of crap out loud in public, and he is 'officially [elected]' 'god's boy'. It might be time to put ole Pat in a home, folks!

I read this article this morning - BBC NEWS Middle East Israel punishes US TV evangelist -and was surprised for all of 2 seconds. As Pat Roberson ages, that crusty facade of 'God's Love' flakes off in ever larer pieces. It is refreshing, to some extent, to see that dignity won out over greed for once (sort of) - "We were due to sign a contract in the near future with Mr Roberson for the construction of a new Christian heritage centre in the Galilee," [Tourism Ministry spokesman Ido Hartuv] told the AFP news agency. "We, as the State of Israel, cannot accept what he said and we will not do any business with him or with anyone else who agrees with his view." But Mr Hartuv insisted Israel had not rejected outright the idea of building the centre. "The contract is still open - just not with Mr Robertson." It's certianly no secret how evangelicals feel about Jews (they blame them for the death of Jesus X), it's just nice to see that Ayatoll...

BBC NEWS | World | Africa | 'Satanic' church banned in Zambia Is it Xianity gone wrong? Is it a case of mass hysteria propogated by Evangelical Missionaries with an inconsistent message? Or is it Memorex?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4394722.stm I don't know - A Xian Baptist preacher dies during a baptism on all Hallow's Eve? Is there anything else that could be said? Well - WWPRS? (What would Pat Robertson Say?)

BBC NEWS | Africa | Pastor Hinn in Nigerian money row It is always good to see that the glory of God © can still move the masses and make the lame whole. I can see the image of God's © own Hinn - Arriving in a country of 128 Million poor xians looking for delivery from the evil around them, arriving in his glorious motorcade of Hummers. I really wish I could have heard that last sermon on the third day. I bet back stage, he must have let the explitives fly! Maybe it's the evangelical equivelant to a traffic ticket - God © was punishing him for something that he's been getting away with for a while anyway.

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iraqi 'justice' by television 1984, anyone?

If ye loveth Jesus, ye should KILL A KITTEN!!! 

BBC NEWS | Europe | Pope has surgery to aid breathing Look's like it's about time to put the current puppet of god in the box. I guess even god's chosen mets the same fate as the pagan.

The Sermons of SATAN It is as it says my brethren. And lo on high, the Lord spoke unto me and said 'Dude!' The site is either by an honesyt to 'god' satanist or a Straussian trained xian looking to further the cause on banning the internet. In either case, it's a fun read!

The similarities in the histories of Xianity and the ideologic policies of Straussians in the current administration. If you know what I'm talking about, then WOW! If not, then I will finish this thought a little later!

BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iran tops US 'trouble-spots' list I'm sure that Bush and Co. see themselves as fulfilling the Manifest Destiny of the United States in liberating the infidel hordes from the dictators of the Arab world. Never mind that they spent most of the time Hussein was in power praising and propping him up - he was a secular force stemming the tide of communism - er, Islam. He was useful only insofar as he fought against Iran. His reward was our looking the other way on VX gas attacks and general dictatorshit fate. Good thing the Arab community and countries see us as liberators and champions of democracy, peace and freedom. Just imagine if they thought of us as 'Crusaders', forcing Xianity at gunpoint when its interests are compromised.

Jesus Can Save You From Hell I really think I found my most favorite site on the web EVER!! You just can't get any better than the real thing. When you have SERIOUS discussions with titles such as 'The FALSE GOSPEL of ISLAM' and '48 Hours In HELL!', you know your soul is in jeopardy!

WorldNetDaily: SpongeBob, Barney promote 'gay' tolerance Here it is again! This article drags Dora the Explorer, Jojo the Clown, and Bob the Builder into the 'gay fray' (I've always had my doubts about Big Bird . . .) The sad truth to this is that it sounds like a little misinformation is used to prop up a mean spirited attack on homosexuality. The AFA researcher Ed Vitagliano happens to be a pointman for the religious right. Though I may be just too cynical - The American Family Association, I'm sure, is really just a moderate, progressive think tank of neoconservative Xians.

BBC NEWS | Americas | US right attacks SpongeBob video : We see the video as an insidious means by which the organisation is manipulating and potentially brainwashing kids. Paul Batura Focus on the Family I am just not giving this Xian group enough credit! There are some untapped potentials for fun here. I'll have to research to see if this group was responsible for getting Mighty Mouse off the air. But this isn't the first time Spongebob has been 'outed' . . . Camp cartoon star 'is not gay'

May the love of your god follow you all your days. 

Picasa and Hello are going to spoil me! This is Jesus Cookie at the crucifixion. 

Louisiana Quaker eLetter vol.1, no. 11 I will give the author credit for spinning a tale that sounds so plausible that someone looking for a reason for it to be true. The main problem here is that it relies on articles of faith to excuse the fact that Jesus was a Jew, and any writings would have hsve been articles in propogation of his own Judaism. Note that neither Jesus or his original 12 Apostles were xian. When Paul sold his refined version of Judaism, he parted ways with the xians that believed the divinity of Jesus within the confines of Judaism. Here's a quote to prove my point exactly: Like the Torah in the hands of first-century Pharisees, the written words become more important than the one who delivered them. Jesus came to liberate us, not to bind us to new idols. The problem faced in the invention of Xianity is that it has become bound to a new idol - that of the Jesus Christ. There is no way to seperate the paganistic binding of the Trinity or the ima...

Plugged In Online Here is a website fronted by the curiously fun 'Focus on the Family.' They offer wholesome reviews of movies, videos, etc., and play up xian alternatives when they are to be found. You can guess how they reacted to Pantera's Far Beyond Driven or the the Dawn of the Dead remake, but when they beat up on Enya, you really have to wonder. It goes along with that Evangelical notion that if you are doing ANYTHING that isn't slavishly praising the set notion of the xian god, then you are praising THE EVIL ONE !! Now - someone explain how a monothiestic religion has more than one diety?
