Quote for the day -- Muslims more moral than Christians?
"Muslims are calling for the executions of homosexuals in Ame- rica. This just shows you they themselves are upholding the laws that are even in the Bible of the Judeo-Christian God, but they seem to be more moral than even the American Christians do, because these people are livid about enforcing their laws. They know homosexuality is an abomination."
He won't be "Bachmann's Rev Wright." He's an idiot, a racist and a homophobe, but there isn't a solid "Bachmann attended his church for XX years" type of connection. And we don't have a Fox News to trumpet moronic, trumped-up charges 24/7.
NC: On the contrary, she's actively promoted and encouraged his activities and rhetoric -- a rather more incriminating connection than just going to hear him preach.
Nonnie: Wake up and smell the burning witches. Actually implementing the Biblical death penalty for homosexuality (and for adultery and what-not) in the modern US is an established part of the agenda of the Dominionist wing of the Christian Right.

Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

holy shit. i can't believe someone actually said that out loud.

This quote was unintentionally revealing. Christian fundamentalists and Islamic fundamentalists have more overlap that people like to think.
Ahab: Very much so. There are far more similarities than differences. Both are dangerous enemies of freedom and secularism.
