Those poor, downtrodden people!

Help! Help! I'm being oppressed!!

--except in this case, it's Bedevere yelling, instead of the serf.

...yeeeeeah. Minority? I don't think that word means what you think it does, Pat.

I dont' think so, either, Nerdlass ... and neither does Inigo:

Oh Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy. Quick Jasper, get me some brandy. I think I have touch of the vapors.

Brandy?  I'm starting Xanax.

People must be learn to agree on the meanings of words. Otherwise there is no communication. Just a shouted dialogue of the deaf.

If only there were a mutually agreed upon reference of some kind. <Sigh!>

Communication is only possible among equals.

I dunno. Plenty of Canine-Americans communicate with me and clearly, I'm not their equal.

Korzybski: "The map is not the territory."  And who was it once said that the fact we need language presupposes its inability to communicate anything.

Pat Robertson who?  Oh, the Pat Robertson who advocates wife beating!  Yes, let's all listen to what this wise man has to say.  Evangelical Christians, if you feel oppressed, take Pat Robertson's advice and move to Saudi Arabia.

Pat Robertson - yuck!

The above statement is blown so outrageously out of proportion that I don't know whether to laugh or cry about it.

Tell me, Pat: have we had a christian Kristallnacht yet?  Have christians been forced to wear yellow crosses on their clothes or been denied the right to own or run their own businesses?  Are they being herded into ghettos or camps?

You know as well as I do that the answer to all of the above is a screamingly obvious NO.  Yet because you cannot have your unimpeded way with the government, because it won't knee-jerk echo your values or cave when you make your demands, you act like the spoiled brat that you are and run your mouth in ridiculous hyperbole about how you are SO persecuted.

I'd tell you to grow up, but that would be expecting you to change, and it is self-evident that you are determined not to ... so how about this:

Just. Go. Away ... Please.

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:28pm 2 Comments

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
