I recall a Klan meeting announcement in north Missouri years ago. Three guys showed up. Two were from the FBI and one was an off-duty Highway Patrolman.
I like the word Michael Savage uses:
Christophobes.
My Jewish friends apparently are in your and my ideological league, so to speak, and they cannot understand this phenomenon, either....
You know if you survey the entire sayings and teachings of Jesus, there isn't a lot there implying that all governments should be social left in their policies and wholly nonjudgmental regarding the sins of men...this coming from one who would die for our sins!
"As a Jew who voted for Bush I want someone to start hating me too as I'm starting to feel left out!~}"
Geez, sorry. Can't possibly help you. Don't hate you, think you're really smart. Feeling lonely is always an option. Don't recommend it though -- you're more than welcome here!
It's a neat word and will be tomorrow's "secret word of the day" for my wife, daughter, friends, and me.
Mishpuchah!!
Dammit! I just HATE people who feel the need to be part of some victim group!!
(Feel better?)
I'm surprised about the Garrison Keillor quote. Did you hear this on his radio show, or see it in print?
Ok, heretic time.
First, I have to say that I could not care less if 2 guys or 2 women want to get together. I could not care less if they get together for 1 night or a lifetime. As long as they are of consenting age and nobody is being forced, WGAS. Of course, I could not care less about your relations, or lack thereof, also.
Second, do not presume that all gays are godless heathens. Do not presume all gays want to eradicate godliness in life. I will agree that most, if not all, of the prominent public voices are virulently anti-traditional religion. By your statements are you not guilty of they same bigotry that you accuse them of.
Thirdly, I mention bigotry and my disdain for anyone that engages in it. How do I know bigotry when I see it. I use the old DU rule. If you insert "Repug" for "Gay" and "christian morality" for "(insert class distinction here)", and it stillreads right..... it's bigoted.
Lastly, if you have a moral code, great, live by it. But do not presume to know the literal mind of God and then attempt to impose it on others. Ask the Muslims how well that works for them.
"Putting the fun back in fundamentalist"
Nothing that a good dose of guilt won't cure..... 8~)
Garrison Keillor's comments: Born-agains shouldn't have right to vote

You see, everything before 1998 is "back in the day." They don't teach actual American history anymore, leading a younger newswoman to say to me one day that 1964 was the "nadir in American racial relations." Told that it was actually the high-water mark to that point and for at least another decade, she replied, "You don't know what you're talking about."
Somebody needs to start a Godophobia ping list to track all of this left-wing hate and intolerance...
LOL! That's yiddish for family. The "whole mishpuchah" sort of means "all the relatives."
Pronounce it MISH-pook-a.
Like the days of Lot. Whole lotta gay activists then, too.
Never liked Village Voice.
Sorry buddy! Nothin' but love from this Christian! ;)
It isn't Christians they really fear. They fear God - but don't like being reminded of Him.
Lastly, if you have a moral code, great, live by it. But do not presume to know the literal mind of God and then attempt to impose it on others.I could remind you that the entire foundation of western civilization is built on that same "moral code", but I suppose that would be a pointless rabbit trail.
Tell you what: We don't tell homosexuals what to do in their private lives behind closed doors, and they don't tell us to change the foundational institutions of our civilization-like marriage, for instance-and everybody goes home happy. Have we got a deal?

Posted on the FR yesterday-from WorldNet Daily. Search Keillor and you'll find it.
