This is the great thing about rabid fundamentalism. You really just don't have to give a damn. Take the environment. I mean, isn't it just a little pointless to care so damn deeply about the air and the soil and the water and the stupid little disposable animals on this silly spinning ball of expendable rock when the Second Coming is imminent and a blood-soaked fire-breathin' Jesus who looks remarkably like Mel Gibson will return very soon to smite the heathens and the gays and the vegetarians and the Francophiles, and who will rescue all those who worship patriarchy and country music and blue-chip oil portfolios? You're goddamn right it is.
Look. This much has become clear. Bush is, more than anything else, an extreme fundamentalist Christian. He is widely regarded as the most openly pious and sanctimonious president in modern American history. He actually preaches the GOP screed in evangelical churches across America. He panders so slavishly to the anti-choicers and the Bible-thumpers and the homophobes it makes Jerry Falwell swoon and giggle.
And Bush actually says, out loud, that God speaks through him, and that God is on our side we bomb the living crap out of Afghanistan and Iraq and that it is the Almighty's wish that we take control of these angry pip-squeak nations and in so doing kill thousands of civilians and tens of thousands of young Iraqi soldiers, as over 1,000 American soldiers are now dead over a makeshift cause that never really existed. God wanted it this way, that's why.
Bush has called Jesus his "favorite philosopher." He has claimed that the act of being "born-again" saved him from a long, sad life of vaguely homoerotic frat parties and repetitive binge drinking and going AWOL from the National Guard,

"There shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, 'Where is the promise of His coming?' " 2 Peter 3:3-4
This prophecy is being fulfilled now.
The prophecy of Christ's return will also be fulfilled, and this author will not be laughing and ridiculing then.
You are so screwed!!!
Well, it would certainly prove that god answers my prayers.
Talk about sanctimony!
To be ignorant is one thing, but to have your ignorance displayed in a newspaper for everyone to see is quite embarrassing.
As with most liberal statements, simply invert it and you have the truth. If Mark had only read the Bible, he would know God commands man to care for the earth.
No More Gore, No More Gore...let us chant it together.

A real beer.
Not some of that fizzy yellow stuff that morford drinks.
Don't make me come lookin' fer ya..
"End Times" Sounds like a homsexual paper Morford would write for.
Beer? Dude? Let's start over, I am a Dudess, and I don't drink Beer...too much yeast. Chill pill? I might be able to find one of those, but I don't even like to take prescription drugs.
Actually just keep a tight reign on Gore from ranting and raving and I will be fine. The man rubs me the wrong way.
OK. Fine.
It seemed like you were accusing me of being Algore ... a truly heinous and infamous charge.
Algore is a wimp. A pissant. A whining, lying, dissembling, spineless, brainless, mindless, gutless, bottom feeding, bilge drinking submoron. He has bad breath and body odour. He is a socialist, an abortionist, and a gun-control-freak. If he rubs you in any fashion, you've let him get far too close.
He should probably be wearing one of those nice, white, canvas jackets with the extra long sleeves and the buckles all over.
But that isn't my call to make.
I thought you were claiming to be him....LOL Glad to see we have same opinion of the flaming, ranting, raving and rabid Gore.
#7. The sad thing is, is that they would not use them on themselves(the dims) at this point, they would still be nasty enough to do things like put them in fruits or other edibles. That's the way the dims are, scorched earth policy, meaning if they can not win, they will tear everyone else down with them.
geez it must suck to go through life with thoughts like this in your head...
I feel sorry for some of these people. How horrible that must be.
