That Makes Sense

We live in the classroom of the human mind. And while we have advanced in every subject in school, from science to technology to politics and everything else, as far as religion is concerned, we are still stuck in the first grade.

And anyone who has ever dared to show us the way to make it to second grade - like that fellow Jesus who is said to have helped humanity to see the wisdom of the second grade offered by the "new testament" - has always been crucified by the most fanatical first graders of all, for the heresy of pretending to know more about "god" than they do.

Hence, for the last two thousand years, the most fanatical children in a first grade religion class, are the one's Christians have "faith" should be trusted to run the school, and even the whole world. 

 Yeah, that makes sense.

Why Christianity is More Unnatural Than Homosexuality

I grew up in a family that is about as homophobic as Phil Robertson and the Westboro Baptists, only they're not quite as boisterous about it; at least not in public anyway. They have also conveniently convinced themselves  that their homophobia is really just their unique Christian ability to "hate the sin, but love the sinner" (even though these very same Christians adamantly refuse to accept that people can "hate Christianity, but love the Christian").  The sexual superiority complex necessarily relied on by such Christians is, of course, blanketed beneath the lambs wool of the Christian humility of serving "God."

Why Are Republicans Pro Life?

Most people don't realize that the Supreme Court has been in the hands of the Republican party since at least 1970! In fact, even in the landmark case of Roe v Wade that legalized abortion, SCOTUS was inhabited by 6 Republicans and 3 Democrats, and the vote was 7 to 2. One of the reasons is that the Republican Party has absolutely ZERO desire to win on the abortion issue. And that's because abortion gives the GOP a clear focal point with potentially unlimited organizing power. And it's an even simpler message to sell than religion, since we are "pro-life." (if that was true, however, they wouldn't be actively trying to repeal healthcare for up to 30 million Americans, nor would they be so pro-gun, pro-war, pro-death penalty, pro welfare cuts, pro- social security cuts, pro- drone strikes, etc). The Republican party officially became "pro-life" in 1976, thanks to Jesse Helms (R-NC). The only reason no serious challenge was brought within the pa...
