[if you don't want to read about my opinion on the sad state of religion, please go here instead. you might as well actually learn something.]

take a trip to boycottliberalism.com and you get "Our greatest responsibility is the active defense of the American people." - George W. Bush

okay. fair enough.

then you look at the content. you notice the:

Boycott of the Week:

then the Liberals of the Week: in theaters

hmm, i think i'll click. well looky here!

Liberals in Films Currently in Theaters



well isn't that quaint. if they use the word boycott and are making note of liberals and quoting the president in term, then they must be 'conservative'! hmm, let's see what these conservatives are like and if i relate to their interests and agenda. yes this is my blog and it's about me. sometimes.

well let's look at an inspirational message. i like inspiration. perhaps it will be enriching and educational. being a human i pick the first one, because it is. here is the inspiration, with comment, copied from here, [it's free to distribute, according to the site, so don't come waving the big (C) in front of me]

"One day Satan and Jesus were having a conversation."

is that so? and i wonder where the stenographer was?

"Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden, and he was gloating and boasting . "Yes, sir, I just caught the world full of people down there. Set me a trap, used bait I knew they couldn't resist. Got 'em all!"

and did little red riding hood join them from granny's house? and who is the sophisticated gentleman who done hicked up the grammar on this one. i've never 'set me' nothing in my life. sure my language may be crude and objectionable, but i am not that bad. er ain't.

"What are you going to do with them?" Jesus asked.

"Satan replied, "Oh, I'm gonna have fun! I'm gonna teach them how to marry and divorce each other, how to hate and abuse each other, how to drink and smoke and curse. I'm gonna teach them how to invent guns and bombs and kill each other. I'm really gonna have fun!"

wow. if history serves me right, satan sure knew a lot about the future, i mean bombs are a fairly recent technology. what a brilliant being this one.

"And what will you do when you get done with them?" Jesus asked.

"Oh, I'll kill 'em," Satan glared proudly.

"How much do you want for them?" Jesus asked.

"Oh, you don't want these people. They ain't no good. Why, you'll take them and they'll just hate you. They'll spit on you, curse you and kill you! You don't want those people!"

"How much?" Jesus asked again.

Satan looked at Jesus and sneered, "All your tears, and all your blood."

Jesus said, "Done!" Then he paid the price

aww. what a noble gesture. trading tears and blood for people who will spit, curse and kill him. thus 'saving' people from the inevitable killing by satan.

(a) "Isn't it funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world is going to Hell."

(b) "Isn't it funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says."

(c) "Isn't it funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything the Bible says. Or is it scary?"

(d) "Isn't it funny how someone can say "I believe in God" but still follow Satan (who by the way, also believes in God)."

(e) "Isn't it funny how you can send a thousand jokes through Email and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing."

(f) "Isn't it funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but the public discussion of Jesus is suppressed in the school and workplace. Isn't it funny how someone can be fired up for Christ on Sunday, but be an invisible Christian the rest of the week."

(g) Isn't it funny how when you go to forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it to them.

(h) Isn't it funny how I can be more worried about what other people think of me than what God thinks of me.

the constant questioning is a strongarm tactic, meant to cause confusion. interrogation is such. isn't is funny how the author doesn't know what shift+/ is? and i don't use Capital letters, because of my internet relay chat days where CAPS are for llamas. plus it slows down my typing.

here are some answers i have to these questions proposed. and maybe some questions of the questions too.

(a) there are some people who may not believe in a single god, or one at all. why is this so hard to fathom? oh, because it's a different point of view and a nonconformist opinion. so to prevent going to hell, do not trash god simply. that is the answer that is acceptable to the author unknown.

(b) they are one in the same, stupid. both are in fact written by humans. which means both are biased and subject to many interpretations. the difference is that newspaper is constantly changing and evolving, while the bible is [somewhat] static, unless you 'read into' it.

(c) everyone? or is that everyone as it would be to monotheistic persons who call their deity 'God' and believe their 'savior' is Jesus, and only do what the Bible says? methinks it's the latter. or is what scary? the truth that the qualifiers above don't necessarily apply to 'everyone'. i see where this is heading.

(d) believing in god, and following satan. not the same thing. pointing out that satan believes in god is irrelevant. so in this, to follow satan is to not follow god. but in doing so you still believe in said god. sure....

(e) of course said people think twice, because unlike your delusional self, said people might take into consideration that your Lordy agenda may not be of interest to all. when i happen to be the recipient of such messages, i have to restrain myself from the kneejerk 'go to hell' response i so want to write.

(f) now why is this? because... creation science is not science and is boring and tired. the constant forcing of this fallacy as truth is relative. for those who only see the world as it relates to their myopic views, this is the only science. and just who 'supresses' this talk? could it be there is only so much to be said. because the bible doesn't talk about the trivial things in life, like [insert useless entertainment value here] or [insert media circus lawsuit here]. the only people who talk about Jesus,Inc. 24/7 are TBN and the rest of the televangelist jackasses.

as for being 'fired up for christ' on the official 'church day' but not during the rest of the week, now there is a guilt ploy. because of this Christian [again, excluding any other faiths] guilt, you should not be invisible. be 'fired up' all through the week about one thing and one thing only, Christ. be visible in your constant gumflapping about Jesus. it will make you a better person. or get you knocked the f out. or placed in a nice padded room.

(g) isn't it funny how you reasked (e) in a different way? enforcing reaffirmation or receiving an alternate answer in which to use to your advantage. lawyers and 'news hounds' do this too.

(h) seriously. just how thick can we lay on the guilt trip? enough with that!

Will you pass this on?

sure, after i add my say to your inspirational bullcrap.

so, we learned that these 'conservatives' are nothing more than meer puppets for the great Christian movement. spreading ignorance and fear and guilt daily.

justifying 'bad' people as satan followers is absurd. if they only followed god, everything would be okay, right?

here's my quote:

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Ben Franklin

the FCC have offered up their temporary safety from 'indecency' by not defining what indecency is clearly and on paper. yet they find it perfectly justifiable to persecute and fine radio stations, while giving the offending television networks a pass. how i got to the boycottliberalism site was looking up more info on what howard stern said on 24.2.2004. here are my findings.

In the past Howard Stern has helped many Republicans win election including, George Pataki, Rudy Guliani, Christy Todd Whitman and even Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, Howard Stern is now blaming President Bush for the crackdown on indecency by the FCC. Great people make great sacrifices for their country. As evidenced by the comments below, Howard Stern is now railing against President Bush. It seems he cares more about his job (when he is already a multimillionaire) than the direction of this country.

okay, a brief history of accurate statements, concluded with the vague and ambiguous 'direction' the country is heading in. oh wait, this would be the non-religious-conservative direction? and that's bad right?

here are the oh so shocking quotes resulting in the big story.

Howard Stern Radio Show 2/24/04

On George W. Bush-

"I think this guy has flipped his lid."

"When he is not doing this, he is on vacation. Rat fink."

"Our President, little monkey, time for him to go."

and the response the next day:

Howard Stern Radio Show 2/25/04

"My days here are numbered because I dared to speak out against the Bush administration and say that the religious agenda of George W. Bush concerning stem cell research and gay marriage is wrong," Stern continued. "And that what he is doing with the FCC is pushing this religious agenda. And also the fact that the guy takes more vacation than any President ever. It's time for him to leave. Having said that pushed me off the air in six markets."

someone forgot to read something i believe i found here in regards to something about the press?

enough for now. michael powell and his FlamingCorruptChristians are nothing but bondage lackeys of the religious wrong. stop the madness, and put down the definition of indecency on paper. and punish television for the actions 0.001% of the populous find offensive instead of everyone else. complete and utter crap. or better yet, just sterlize or imprison that 0.001% for dictating their agenda of child rights, and let's factor out the lowest denominator approach to the nation and the world.
