He apparently doesn’t understand that “religious” doesn’t = “Christian”.

And the Weird Light Shines in the Dorks, but the Dorks Don’t Comprehend it

Excerpt:

“..Only humans can fail to become what they are. Only human beings can actually become monsters, for a vile human being is far lower than a noble animal. No animal but the human being can be unfit for life and unworthy of the cosmos that belched him from the void.

The purpose of religion is to become human. Biology will only take you so far, which is not very far at all. A merely biological human being would also be a monster, a misfit, something grotesque. In our bones we know this.

In Genesis, the first thing Adam and Eve realize upon attaining self-consciousness is their nakedness, of which they are ashamed.

They know instantaneously — one of those things we cannot not know — that they are not like the other animals and that there is something shameful in behaving like one. Man has dignity and nobility, or he is not man, merely a hairless ape or an MSNBC anchor. ...

For leftism, in all its forms, is a revolt. Specifically, it is a revolt against our divine-human nature alluded to above. With the cosmic inversion of 1960’s came the pervasive message that one could be an authentic human only by being subhuman, by rejecting all of society’s “hypocritical” mores and values. In fact, the word “hypocrisy” was redefined as a way to eliminate the realm of metaphysically real values by attacking those who are unable to live up to them (as if anyone but a saint could!). ...

This is why the left cannot help aligning itself with movements — no matter how vile or evil — that further this goal of overturning Western values. It is why Michael Moore calls terrorists “freedom fighters,” why Cynthia Sheehan calls President Bush a terrorist, why Kos says “screw ‘em” to American “mercenaries” who are beheaded by Iraqi terrorists, why they sympathize with the Palestinians but demonize Israel, why they love Castro, Che, Sandinistas, Hugo Chavez, and now Obama. ...” ~ Robert Godwin (Gagdad Bob) bttt

Earth-Firsters say: “GOP VP Pick Sarah Palin is a Global Warming Denier” September 4, 2008
http://earthfirst.com/gop-vp-pick-sarah-palin-is-a-global-warming-denier/

[) They should re-phrase that to make it a more accurate statement: “GOP VP Pick Sarah Palin is a Man-made Global Warming Agnostic - she needs valid proof / evidence.” The leading “scientists” and “theologians” in this eco-extremist “Climate Change” movement who have admitted to being “liars for science” and “liars for Jesus” can’t provide it; they have NO credibility with anyone other than the uninformed. See post #9 above. (]

The New UK Environment Minister Sammy Wilson agrees with Sarah Palin and has angered green campaigners by describing their view on climate change as a “hysterical psuedo-religion”.

“...The tactic used by the “green gang” is to label anyone who dares disagree with their view of climate change as some kind of nutcase who denies scientific fact,” he said. ...” More: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/northern_ireland/7599810.stm
