Phyllis Schlafly
Phyllis Schlafly has been a national leader of the conservative movement since the publication of her best-selling 1964 book, A Choice Not An Echo. She has been a leader of the pro-family movement since 1972, when she started her national volunteer organization now called Eagle Forum. In a ten-year battle, Mrs. Schlafly led the pro-family movement to victory over the principal legislative goal of the radical feminists, called the Equal Rights Amendment. An articulate and successful opponent of the radical feminist movement, she appears in debate on college campuses more frequently than any other conservative. She was named one of the 100 most important women of the 20th century by the Ladies' Home Journal. Mrs. Schlafly's monthly newsletter called The Phyllis Schlafly Report is now in its 38th year. Her syndicated column appears in 100 newspapers, her radio commentaries are heard daily on 460 stations, and her radio talk show on education called "Phyllis Schlafly Live" is heard weekly on 45 stations. Both can be heard on the internet. Mrs. Schlafly is the author or editor of 20 books on subjects as varied as family and feminism (The Power of the Positive Woman), nuclear strategy (Strike From Space and Kissinger on the Couch), education (Child Abuse in the Classroom), child care (Who Will Rock the Cradle?), and a phonics book (Turbo Reader). Her most recent book, Feminist Fantasies, is a collection of essays on feminism in the media, workplace, home, and the military. Mrs. Schlafly is a lawyer and served as a member of the Commission on the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, 1985-1991, appointed by President Reagan. She has testified before more than 50 Congressional and State Legislative committees on constitutional, national defense, and family issues. Mrs. Schlafly is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Washington University, received her J.D. from Washington University Law School, and received her Master's in Political Science from Harvard University. Phyllis Schlafly is America's best-known advocate of the dignity and honor that we as a society owe to the role of fulltime homemaker. The mother of six children, she was the 1992 Illinois Mother of the Year. |
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Well, at least she has a Masters. Doesn't mean I would subpoena her instead of Condi or Wolfowitz. The same reason I will listen to actual biologists than an advocate lawyer when it comes to evolution.
Which part of that do you imagine makes her an expert in evolutionary biology?
Notably absent from her "resume" is any reference to academic achievement or professional experience in the areas of biology, physics, chemistry, geology, mathematics, or any other real science. Although Mrs. Schlafly obviously has the right to comment on any topic she likes, he opinion on evolution is no more learned than Babs Streisand's opinion on world politics.
I have a theory I’d like to try out here:
OK there are three kinds of people in the world, those who believe in a god (Theists) and those who do not believe in a god (Atheists), and those in Denial of these other positions.
True atheists are rare; I have never yet met an atheist, merely those in denial. As an example of an “Atheist” who is really just a theist in denial, I offer Castro’s request that people pray for him.
Theists believe that a god created life and people with an obvious reproduction system, sexual in nature which requires a man and a woman to reproduce. This is then accepted as their god’s plan for reproduction.
Atheists believe that people came to exist through a natural process, usually Darwinism, and that the Sexual reproduction is how we got to be the way we are, and continue to change, those who do not reproduce are “Dead Ends” and are being culled from the Gene Pool.
Neither true theists, nor true atheists practice homosexuality because it violates their basic beliefs, unless they are in denial of those beliefs.
Postulate: All Homosexuals are in denial of atheism, and / or theism. Homosexuals use the confusion of pitting these to forces against each other to avoid addressing their personal denial. This is why homosexuals will pretend to be theists or atheists depending on their perception of who the threat to their avoidance of their denial appears to be from. Homosexuals do this in an attempt to enlist the others to their logical argument and prolong the debate, thus prolonging their denial.
She's amazing. But then, she's got an amazing Father...
