Dear (NEA Chairman) Dana Gioia:
I write to you today, not with a request, but with a demand. Ive been sitting back patiently while the NEA has been promoting anti-Christian art for a number of years. In fact, one could say that I have been supporting it, too, given that my tax dollars have been spent on this garbage. And maybe Ive been supporting it in another way by refusing to write you to express my frustration. That is, until now.
In the spirit of the separation of church and state, my demand is that you commission a painting fully funded with tax dollars that has one intention and one intention only: To offend Muslims everywhere

The internet dumbass.
haha, frong should have read front. now dont you make a spelling mistake or ill rename you ms. black kettle.
Soooo... not to change subjects... but how long was the bus you went to school in?
i have asked your for concrete answers to concrete questions, yet you hide in obfiscation. you are beyond being a dumbass. you are hopeless, a mistake of some simian dna.
Simian DNA? So I evolved and you did not. Game Set Match..... ROTFLMAO
we didnt ride buses. the teachers came to us.
They must have come on a short bus
if you say you are evolving, then i will believe you. some of us on the other hand were created by god. i prefer god lineage than monkey, but thats just me.
Who says we deny it? I don't. I fully recognize that different cultures see things differently. In fact, I willingly point it out (see my post before this one). Some cultures are more evil than others.
I'm not sure I get your point. Are you engaging in Liberal PC cultural relativism here? Is that mere excuse-making for inferior cultures? If so, it doesn't wash with thinking people. Only mind-numbed PC adherants embrace this nonsense.
I'm not willing to play cultural relativist in an effort to appear enlightened. When I see evil, I point it out. I won't forgive it with "they see things differently" PC garbage.
If a "culture" wants its people to become murderous, raving lunatics when presented with a cartoon and if that culture wishes to deny freedom to every human being, the culture needs to be viewed and recognized as inferior. If you truly believe in the principles upon which this country was founded, you would warmly embrace this sentiment.
I am not evolving.
You dont get it do you?
You dont seem dumb. You just lack insight.
Have you bred anything?
when i posted that western civilization has taught us not to riot for cartoons, maybe you didnt understand that statement. when i said americas foundation was judeo christian eithics, while not always practiced right, but nonetheless they are there, you might not have understood my point. now when you say that if i adhered to these things and warmly embraced the constitution, it would follow that i can tell the evil civilization from others not evil. guess what,you are right and i do call islam evil because it is evil. according to you, calling islam evil is now a liberal position? huh?
so you dont think im bascially dumb? wow. see, i knew you were a very kind person down deep.
See my tag line.... Look, I am willing to share and teach a bit if you are at all not the latter half of the tag. You can probably teach me a lot about many things, but this is a losing battle on your part. I promise that I will not be a Godless heathen, if you promise to look at reality. Strictly interpreting the old testament leads to .......... the current muslim world.
if you accuse me of strictly following the old testament, that would mean im jewish. yet you accused me of being christian. while they are closely related, they are different. im not nitpicking, i just want to be very clear on that. btw, islam does not follow the old testament at all, they follow the koran. whole different book and dynamics
How is that any different than how Islam is allowed to be criticized in Islamic countries? Not much.
good point, yet the darwinsts always cry foul when you mention this type of thing, as if we are making it all up.
anyways, all kidding aside, ive had fun posting with you. i have to go now and try to get a few hours sleep. stay well.
you had to bring up turn the other cheek? ok, what do you take that to mean and do try to answer this question this time, not segue into non related issues please?
They cannot begin to fathom how any rational person could disagree.
