Tolerant Amongst Us TM strike again.

I'm so glad that I know the majority of Americans can't be good Americans:

Can a devout Conservative Christian be an American
patriot and
a loyal citizen? Consider this:

Theologically, no.
Because his
allegiance is to white, blonde haired, blue eyed Jesus.

Scripturally,
no. Because his allegiance is to the three of the Ten
Commandments that he can
remember.

Geographically, no. Because his
allegiance is to the place
where they plan to get raptured to.

Socially, no. Because his allegiance
to white Jesus forbids him to
make friends with Americans such as Gays and
Muslims.

Politically,
no. Because he must submit to Pat Robertson, who
calls for the 'godly'
fumigation of Non-Conservative Christians.

Domestically, no, because he
is instructed to turn women into 2nd class
citizens (along with every other
non-white person).

Religiously, no.
Because no other religion is
accepted by his god except Conservative
Christianity.

Intellectually, no, because he cannot accept the American
Constitution since it is not based on Biblical principles.

Philosophically, no, because the 'christian' Right does not allow
freedom of religion and expression.

Democracy and the 'christian'
Right
cannot co-exist.

Therefore after much study and Deliberation
....perhaps
we should be very suspicious of ALL CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS in
this country.
They obviously cannot be both good Conservative Christians and
good Americans.
Call it what you wish ...it's still the truth. If you find
yourself
intellectually in agreement with the above, perhaps you will share
this with
your friends. The more who understand this, the better it will be
for our
country.

In light of this is it possible to have a democracy
in the US?
The war is bigger than we know.

Oh No! A DUmmie's friend's wife becomes a fundie!

Anyone who has been following DU since the beginning of Israel's war with Hezbollah knows that they are perhaps more obsessed with the Rapture than the folks at the Rapture Ready bulletin boards. In this DUmmie thread, The Tolerant Amongst UsTM discuss the ramifications and possible cures of fundiness:

HELP: My friend's Wife is becoming a Fundie
Calvary Chapel is her church and he is worried that she will get to the point that she will try to convert him and other stuff. He needs thoughtful advice on the right way to deal with this very important issue in his life. He loves her dearly but it a little scared about it all.I'll share your thoughtful comments with him later today.Peace

Fuck I don't know what to say
Fundies are much like drug addicts. You can't reason with them, they are willing to sacrifice everything including the ones they love, friends and family for their "drug", and they don't quit until they hit rock bottom.All I can say is support your friend during this time - he'll need it.

4. If she's not too far gone,
he might wish to take her to a Dances of Universal Peace. Basically, they are a form of moving meditation or "body prayer" that honors ALL the world's spiritual traditions. They employ simple dance steps and I've even danced with people totally blind and people in wheelchairs. If you are in Hawaii, which I assume from the flag, there are Dances done there. They can change one's outlook. Best of luck.http://www.dancesofuniversalpeace.org/ has more information, but the site isn't always up to date as to who is leading dances where.

Gloating time...

I would now like to take this time laugh at those unfortunate folks whose teams didn't have the kind of draft my Cowboys had. We grabbed four defensive ends in all, two in the first round. We grabbed an elite linebacker in round two who should have been taken in round one. We grabbed the a quality FS in the fourth round. To top it off, we also grabbed a backup for Julius Jones, who is also capable of starting. Much better, IMHO, than getting the third WR in the top ten in three years...

Nothing new under the sun

The DUmmies are still obsessed about the election, according to the latest edition of The DUmmie FUnnies. No surprise here. They couldn't stop yapping about the 2000 election, even after it cost them the ill-gotten Senate in 2002. That election also was stolen according to them. They went into 2004 thinking that America would side with them. Well, we know how that turned out. Now, of course that one was stolen, too.

If they keep this up, they're going to lose all credibility, unfortunately. I doubt it would happen, but who are they going to run to when and if real election fraud happens and they've whined after every election from 2000 on?

Hi everyone.

Welcome to my (new) foray into the blogosphere. You may know me as WinOne4TheGipper from Free Republic and the Conservative Underground. I don't know how often I'll get to post here, but we'll say.
On this blog we'll talk politics, football, and anything else I might find interesting. Heck, we may even skewer the DUmmies every once in a while.
So, kick back, pop open an adult beverage and make yourself at home.
