When Patricia Krenwinkle committed unspeakable evil for Charles Manson in 1969, using a butcher knife to slaughter Sharon Tate and her unborn child, Rosemary LaBianca and several others,  she said she did all of this out of a desperate need to be loved.

But isn't this basically the same motivation for, and indeed the justification offered by, everyone who believes in God as well?

Isn't that the whole point of Abraham trying to sacrifice his only son Isaac to God, by acting like an obedient slave or pet, trying to show his "owner" that he loves God more than even his own son?

If a person was to do that with his own dog, after all, would we not lock them up for committing a crime?

Such a God loves me in the same way of Michael Vick loves dogs.

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...
