However, the majority of people are aware that Cruz would have been a toddler when the killings were happening in northern California

Thirty-eight percent of Florida voters actually think Ted Cruz might be the Zodiac Killer, a so-far unidentified serial killer who came to notoriety for a series of slayings in northern California in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

According to Public Policy Polling, 10 percent of voters in Florida say Cruz is the killer, whereas another 28 percent are not sure whether he is.

However, 62 percent of people realize that the 45-year-old Texas senator would have been a toddler if he indeed were the Zodiac Killer.

Talk of Ted Cruz being the Zodiac Killer began in 2013. The Daily Dot traced back the origins of the meme to a tweet mentioning that one of Cruz’s speeches in that year began with, “This is the Zodiac Speaking.”

Memes of side-by-side photos of Cruz and the Zodiac Killer have surfaced on social media as well. Public Policy Polling, a left-leaning polling firm that is known to add amusing questions to the end of its polls, was asked to include the question by various Twitter users.

Last year, Public Policy Polling famously included a poll question about whether Republicans supported the bombing of fictional kingdom Agrabah from Disney’s animated movie “Aladdin.”

Oh, my early favorite is actually Trump. But that is subject to change. This is like watching a pair of instant photos (remember the Polaroid cameras?) develop, and 30 seconds into the development saying which one is going to look the best when fully developed.

But anyhow, yes I do try to be less weird minded in the real world than I am here. That’s one reason why I like places like FR and Facebook. You can be weird and it really doesn’t destroy anything.

Poor you! All that intelligence in a stupid world. I had a friend like you. Generally he said these things while high on drugs.

I didn’t claim “intelligence in a stupid world.”

I claimed a spiritual perception.

If you don’t know what you’re talking about, you should watch your own discourse.

Dig out some Christian history sometime and actually READ it. You’ll find my accounts are actually rather mild.

However, most of those folks were at least smart enough to only talk about it in church contexts, where there was a hope that the audience would understand. There is the pearls before swine factor, after all.

Look up, for example, John Bunyan. And his work Pilgrim’s Progress. And the weird things he went through including being locked in a tower for what the church at the time called a mad faith.

The world thought he was weird.

Christians who actually display significant spiritual capabilities are thought weird. It shows how bad the normalcy bias is in religion and why religion can’t ever be the cure for the common sinful America.

You want to lose the Turks. That’s understandable to the world.

I want to gain Christ. That puts me right smack in weird category.

If this be weirdness, let me make the most of it. The down and out tend to appreciate the weird.

Try to remember that you are on an anonymous forum and no one knows anything about anyone. I don’t know if you’re a saint or a devil. In the end, I really don’t care. I’m only trying to get the best candidate in office.

I read Milton and the greats of English literature at nighttime, so don’t preach to me.

Let’s make this the last post of the day to each other, ok?

Well clearly we are looking at things from different levels.

You have a pride in your grasp of English literature.

I count Christ above all else. I really do see Him more and more (I often fail!) as the name above every name. Including the name of “English literature great.”

I’m a devil being turned into a saint, kicking and screaming all the way!

But I will be courteous to you and let you go. I just don’t know how to bridge such a divide. God does, and may eventually show me. Maybe even some of the things I said may dawn on you later. And I certainly want to say now, God bless you, from the bottom of my heart. Because God’s middle name is not Damn. And if God had to have a middle name, it would be something more like Bless.

Often, statements of one’s clarity gained by their devotion to Christ are dismissed as “being holier than thou”, as they tend to make the listener reflect inward, and they don’t like the truth that they must acknowledge about themselves; it is akin to breaking a mirror because one does not like what they see. I lay no claim to holiness, as i will always be a work in progress, but can recognize and admire truths that can be referenced biblically.

Actually they are pointing out that Universal Franchise is a mistake.

He looks a lot like Bill Murray. Who, admittedly, is not one of Hollywood’s most attractive celebrities.
