PZ Myers Attacks Pro-Life Pharmacist, Gets Students Involved (see Pharmacists Comments!)

LifeNews ^ | 9/18/08 | Paul Nowak

The real shining part of this story is the pharmacist's comments about the email he's received.

[ari-freedom]

PZ Myers was always unhinged but he really flew off the cuckoo’s nest after Palin was picked.

[muawiyah]

This Myers is a regular puke. Do you think there’s a chance he might get better with the application of some sturdy Heimlicher maneuvers?

[Skooz]

P.Z. Myers is a psycho.

[nonsporting]

Myers achieved notoriety in July after he pierced a consecrated Eucharistic host and a page of the Quar'an with a rusty nail and photographed both in a trash can with a banana peel.

Myers, the biologist--not the pharmacist, defaced a Quar'an, throwing part of one into a trash can. He has nothing to fear from Christians, however, trashing the holy book of Islam is not a life confirming move.

PZ Myers:
“I think that if I had a time machine, I wouldn’t do anything as trivial as using it to take out Hitler before he caused all that trouble. I’d go all the way and pick up Abraham. I wouldn’t kill him, oh no-since I’ve got a time machine, I’d just drop him off in the Permian while I was on my grand temporal tour.”

Don’t you just love it when college professors, who should keep their political leanings to themselves, instead use their position of trust to attack normal people?

This is how we will lose - PZ Myers
Posted on: September 4, 2008 8:25 AM, by PZ Myers

Palin scares me, but what worries me more is that we will screw up again and hand the executive office over to another gang of losers, and we can’t afford that anymore. Now look at the open thread http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2008/09/palin_open_thread.php I set up last night, and you’ll see why I’m concerned. What did people do? They got distracted by irrelevancies, such as the opportunity to exercise a little macho sexism, and then that turned into a nasty, full-blown knife fight with everyone snarling at each other. This is exactly what the Republicans want, writ small on this little tiny island of the blogosphere.

That’s not how we’re going to beat back the troglodytes.

Palin is a stalking horse for failed social and economic and military policies. We don’t want to get drawn away from the important message of defeating those bad policies by the temptation of cheap shots at her appearance and sex, especially because those cheap shots make her look like a sympathetic victim and help advance the Republican agenda.

So please, think. Casual sexism plays into the hands of the bad guys on both sides. What frightens me most is that Palin got up and lied and said nothing of substance, and people are so distracted by the fact that she has breasts that the lies were allowed to slide by. This is how the Democrats can self-destruct, once again.

You finally got one right, PZ. This IS how you will lose.

Even totally united behind Gore in 2000 and Kerry in 2004 you couldn’t beat a dumbass draft dodging reborn alcoholic George “Shrub” Bush and his snake-oil sidekick Dick Cheney of all people. That’s pretty pathetic. This round you’ve got an even worse candidate that half of your own party thinks stole the nomination by cheating and dirty politics. Your party is shattered up the middle and you have the worst candidate in all the decades I’ve been paying attention. I knew Jack Kennedy and your nominee, PZ, is no Jack Kennedy.

Now the culture war is still on, the players are all the same on both sides, except this time we have an honest-to-God centrist war hero, even if he is an elitist beltway insider, and a little unheard of cutie, obviously a political savant, who in 30 minutes won the hearts and minds of every heretofore apathetic God fearing blue collar flyover family all across the nation and made them start caring about who wins this election not to mention is stealing a lot of the Hillary voters who wanted nothing more than a woman in the Whitehouse. If McCain wins then Palin, sooner or later, is going to become the first woman president of the United States as by the time she’s up for election to the top spot there won’t be any question of lack of experience. You are basically looking at teh American Margaret Thatcher. Get used to her. She’s going to be in your face for the next 16 years. It’s all over except for the tears and anger from your side that you were f*cked yet again. Write that down.

Hmmmm, ya think someone needs to tell the local Muslims about this so they can handle it "sharia style?"

If you would like to be added or dropped from the Michigan ping list, please freepmail me.

Koelzer's pharmacy is in Grand Rapids.

Koelzer is president and third-generation owner of Kay Pharmacies...

...and so he can do whatever he damn well pleases when it comes to running his business. That doesn't seem to hard to understand, does it?

[Corporate Law]

"a contemptible, sanctimonious ass"

Sounds like a more apt description of PZ Myers.

[PGalt]

GRRRREAT smackdown by Dave Scot. So effective, it looks like his post has been scrambled.

Thanks for the link.

[PGalt]

Thanks for the ping, grellis.

[Matchett-PI]

You’re welcome. I love checking in on old PZ from time to time since his efforts in the political arena are good for a lot of laughs. :)

Protect the unborn.

Life comes before all other gifts from God.

Vote for life for the unborn. NObama.

I’d never heard of this guy before yesterday. Thanks for posting.

"Mike Koelzer is being persecuted for trying to protect innocent human life," Brown said. "We encourage all American Life League supporters to log onto http://kaypharmacy.wufoo.com/forms/kay-survey/ and lend your support to the efforts of this courageous man ."

Of course, to Myers, they’re not ‘normal’ people. In his world, normal is defined by whatever he does and believes.

[Antoninus]

Great article. I'm convinced that Myers is possessed.

Seriously.
