From Liberal Hollywierd. A Christian is very scary. A Christian who puts God first, is even more scary... That and he has problems with his hair.

Geez, he thinks he’s so damned smart. You’d think that truck hitting him would humble him some, but I guess not.

Glad you summarized. I’ve never been able to penetrate the cloud of pomposity that surrounds anything by or about this commercially successful mediocrity.

“”Cruz is a fundamentalist Christian and it would almost be like electing the analog of an Imam—someone whose first guiding principle would be the scripture rather than the Constitution””
Good grief! He obviously doesn’t study history and has no idea of the controversy surrounding the nomination/election of JFK to the presidency. OR he does but thinks no one else does.

I actually think Trump, in the end, would be more electable than Cruz because Cruz is a fundamentalist Christian and it would almost be like electing the analog of an Imam--someone whose first guiding principle would be the scripture rather than the Constitution.
That's as far as you'll get with one of these cowards when it comes to criticizing Islam. They always couch it in moral equivalence. They'll only trash a Muslim in the context of trashing Christians, and they'll take on the latter with much greater fervor. It's no surprise that King would think this way. Many of his books and stories feature the stock religious nut character (Christian, of course).

ââCruz is a fundamentalist Christian and it would almost be like electing the analog of an Imamâsomeone whose first guiding principle would be the scripture rather than the Constitutionââ That is an extremely rediculous analogy. Makes no sense. Exaggerated for emphasis?
He is just another liberal nut job.

No. The problem isn’t that Christians are scary. The problem is that what I believe we are dealing with is an outer wrapping that can be visualized as Ayn Rand in a Catholic schoolgirl uniform. This covers a core that looks to be one part Nietzsche’s abyss, and one part the decision-making algorithm exhibited by his dad.
Flame away!

Living proof that being a great writer does not make one a great cogitator...
and there is no doubt...he is a great writer...

Yeah, someone who looks like King probably shouldn’t make fun of other’s looks...but he obviously knows that, and is stirring the pot...

Once I called it Ignorance. Then I called it Delusion. Now I call it Evil.

“”That is an extremely ridiculous analogy. Makes no sense. Exaggerated for emphasis? “”
Hard to come up with any rational thought that would support his idea....I don’t think he needs any. Just put it out there and get attention with it. And to think some people make a living this way! Scary!

If that van would have been just a little more to the right.
To: justlittleoleme
These are quotes from a writer? Sounds more like the ramblings of a 12-year-old.
As for this one:
When he came down that escalator to announce that he was going to run for president, I thought to myself that it was a smart joke....
***
Gee, Stephen, you thought to yourself? Tell me, how can you think to someone other than yourself?

Being a highly successful writer is not the same as being a great writer.

I doubt that people put any more stock in the ravings of this loon than they do in the raving loon Beck. A wash in loons.
