I think it's ####ing beautiful. When civilization falls, I WILL BE A GOD!! ALL WILL COWER BEFORE ME!! I WILL BE LOVED AND FEARED - A STRONG PROVIDER AND AN EVEN STRONGER CONQUEROR!! KNEEL! KNEEL BEFORE ME!! KNEEL I SAY!! THE STREETS WILL FLOW WITH THE BLOOD OF THE NON-BELIEVERS!!
: The bottom line - we are witness to the decline
: of western civilization as we know it,
: despite how corny it may sound. We might as
: well get used to it. There is no real unity.
: There is no real tradition. There is no
: real democracy. Everybody's got their own
: agenda and that's it. There is a machine
: running that Bush, religion, or Ossama can't
: stop. Just read your history books.

: CHAPTER & VERSE
: Reclaiming God from pro-war hypocrites--and
: unmasking Bush as a lousy Christian
:
:
: http://www.thestranger.com/2003-03-27/feature3.html
: by Sherman Alexie
: Let me quote from the book of Bill Hicks: :
: "I was over in Australia and somebody
: asked me if I was proud to be American. And I
: said, 'I don't know. I didn't have a lot to
: do with it. My parents ####ed there, that's
: about all.'"
: Let me celebrate the fact that my Roman
: Catholic Coeur d'Alene Indian father and
: Assembly of God Spokane Indian mother ####ed
: somewhere in the vicinity of Wellpinit,
: Washington, and made me an American. My
: passionate parents engaged in
: interdenominational and intertribal sex
: within the sanctity of marriage.
: When I was six months old and being prepared
: for life-threatening brain surgery, my father
: had me baptized Catholic and my mother had me
: baptized Protestant. When it comes to the
: afterlife, I'm covered. When it comes to my
: current life, I'm vaguely Christian. And as a
: vague Christian, I want to reclaim God and
: Christ from the right-wing, pro-war,
: patriotic hypocrites. More specifically, I
: want to paint a big old red "L" on
: the United Methodist George W. Bush's
: forehead because, according to The Book of
: Discipline of the United Methodist Church, he
: is a lousy Christian.
: According to their rulebook, the United
: Methodist Church "officially opposes
: capital punishment and urges its elimination
: from all criminal codes." And yet the
: sacrilegious Bush presided over the
: executions of 132 convicted criminals while
: he was Texas' governor. During a 2000
: interview with the conservative journalist
: Tucker Carlson, W. wickedly mocked Karla Faye
: Tucker, the only woman to be executed in
: Texas during the 20th century. When Carlson
: asked W. how he felt about pleas for Karla
: Faye's clemency, he pretended to be her on
: death row, and whimpered, "Please don't
: kill me."
: I wonder if Pontius Pilate was that funny
: about state-sanctioned murder?
: The United Methodists believe that
: "citizens of all countries should have
: access to all essential information regarding
: their government and its policies. Illegal
: and unconscionable activities directed
: against persons or groups by their own
: governments must not be justified or kept
: secret, even under the guise of national
: security."
: So much for the Christian nature of the
: Patriot Act!
: The Bush administration profanely refused to
: release documents indicating the meeting
: dates and attendance rolls of the energy task
: force chaired by Dick Cheney, another good
: Methodist man. If I were a lousy Christian
: like W. or Dick, I wouldn't have wanted the
: voting public to know that those lousy
: Christian Enron officials were once so
: welcome at the White House.
: The United Methodists insist that
: "homosexual persons no less than
: heterosexual persons are individuals of
: sacred worth" and the Church is
: "committed to supporting [equal] rights
: and liberties for homosexual persons."
: But during his irreligious 1994 campaign for
: governor, Bush defended Texas' sodomy law,
: which makes sexual activity between same-sex
: adults illegal, as a "symbolic gesture
: of traditional values." And in 1999, as
: governor, he supported an ungodly measure
: that banned gay couples from becoming foster
: parents or adopting foster children. As
: president, Bush allowed the military to
: discharge nine students, including seven
: students of Arabic descent, from the Army's
: main language-training center because they
: violated the "don't ask, don't
: tell" policy by identifying themselves
: as gay.
: How do you say "homophobic heathen"
: in Arabic?
: The United Methodists also believe that
: "the manufacture, sale and deployment of
: armaments must be reduced and controlled; and
: that the production, possession or use of
: nuclear weapons be condemned. Consequently,
: [the Church] endorse[s] general and complete
: disarmament under strict and effective
: international controls."
: Does that mean God wants the United States to
: destroy all of its weapons of mass
: destruction?
: And I'm not subjectively quoting from the
: Methodist rulebook. W.'s own church isn't too
: happy with him.
: The United Methodist Church General Board of
: Church and Society believes "United
: Methodists have a particular duty to speak
: out against an unprovoked attack [on
: Iraq].... It is inconceivable that Jesus
: Christ, our Lord and Savior and the Prince of
: Peace, would support this proposed
: attack."
: So, my brother and sister Christians, what
: would Jesus do in a time of war? Be careful
: with your answer. It was Shakespeare, the
: public Protestant and private Catholic, who
: warned, "The devil can cite Scripture
: for his purpose."

: scary that 1/2 the country still doesn't get
: it, as evidenced by the polls. we've seen
: this sort of blind allegiance in mankind's
: history tho. i.e. nazi germany. this is how
: it starts.
: people are people and they're sheep too.
: i would like to think we have evolved beyond
: that.
: i work with a lady, the nicest woman in the
: world.....but she loves bush.
