This is one twisted Easter.
They`re holy rolling toward Florida with mercy chants,levitated by the moral superiority of leaders DeLay and Frist and comforted by their president,George Bush...the Chickenhawk Pet Goat guy who stayed on vacation while Osama put the final touches on his plans.

NOTHING....not the Depleted Uranium in Iraq, not the pile of dead and maimed soldiers, not the legless Iraqi children or the obscene national debt required to fund this hell....will get to these fundamentalists like a woman choosing what to do with her own body.

The made-for-tv tape over their mouths is the perfect image to represent what they`re trying to do to this country. Shut your mouth. Sign a loyalty oath and shut your mouth. Don`t question the president. Don`t question the one, true religion. Don`t deviate from the talking points. Don`t protest against the war. Don`t question authority. If this isn`t a dangerous twisiting of basic democratic principles, I don`t know what is.

A bounty out on Michael Schiavo? A total disregard for medical science? Threats to any judge who rules contrary to their thinking?
This is not the America I was born into nearly 60 years ago. It`s a shell of itself, thanks to millions of people who actually believe that God whispered in George Bush`s ear..."Go. Go to Iraq and bomb them. Slash every social program you can. Try torture. It can be fun and fruitful. Don`t listen to the tree huggers. Threaten the world and you will go far, young man." Beam me up.

2. You need a new narrative
Thanks to Gnostic Christianity, and a healthy dose of postmodernism, I have now concluded that all followers of conservative, fundamentalist, church-driven Christianity are following the anti-Christ.

It's a lovely place to be. Quite peaceful. Though, it doesn't help the democracy thing, though -- on that count, I'm a libertarian.

Henceforth, when I run into a Holy Roller, I can both own Jesus and small government, and make them look like the fascist nutbags that they are.

3. Yet it's "we" who disagree...
...that have a "problem"???? The fear and paranoia of the "Iron Curtain" that was pounded in our grade school heads is NOTHING compared to the constant paranoia and war mongering going on today!

25. Truly, the Christofascist Curtain is descending.
Will stagehands be able to stop it in time?

4. They didn't read the part in the bible that said the devil can imitate God
Lucifer IS an angel. Fallen though he may be, he has the power to imitate beauty. THAT is who is whispering in baby bush's ear! Actually, I think he's taken up permanent residence inside the man. Take a look at how bushitler's "shell" is looking these days! The demons inside him are starting to make their presence known. I expect to see horns and a tail any day now!

last 'press conference', his make-up was especially heavy but his red splotches still came through under the lights.

8. I think Minstrel Boy reported something about his being possessed
Edited on Sun Mar-27-05 12:31 PM by DireStrike
Lemme see...

http://rigorousintuition.blogspot.com/

For what it's worth, here's the website of Aaron C Donahue, who is both a remote viewer and a Luciferian.

He claims George W Bush is spiritually possessed, and a "strange tube-like morphology of an intelligence system is noted" within his body. "This tube-like image is commonly seen of Angels operating outside of normal awareness."

I wouldn't have thought so a couple of years ago, but now, it makes perfect sense.

9. amen..I watched 'Frailty' recently and saw as many have witnessed
in other ways in life how beliefs can be twisted, misused, and even initially 'good intentions' can turn to catastrophy..I've pretty much turned away from organizations and institutions and am instead focusing on attempting to improve myself because there is much work to be done there also..Peace!

26. I almost threw up upon hearing "marshmallow chicken".
For some reason, the image of a roast chicken stuffed with marshmallow came to mind.

Of course chimpy would have to get on a stool to reach my husbands bald head, but it doesn't hurt to be careful!

27. An evil soul producing holy witness is like a villain with a smiling cheek
Edited on Sun Mar-27-05 03:54 PM by Nevernose
"The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart.
O what a goodly outside falsehood hath!"

10. Good rant.
I'm in my early 50's. I feel increasingly alienated with every passing day. Some days my stomach knots up; some days I feel just overwhelmed with the nastiness of the people running the country; some days I just wonder, where did it all go? What happened? And I feel this wistfulness, for what used to be and for what could have been, and I look at those screaming Christians on tv, their faces twisted in hate, and I don't know who they are or where they came from, and I feel afraid.

15. I can't say I blame you there. Raising two children in todays world
is terrifying to say the least. My children have NEVER known the care free days of the late sixties early seventies that I knew. Politics and religious nut cases have invaded their existence seemingly everywhere they go. I live close to a MASSIVE and insane cultist church or over 6000 members. They have taken over a place I have spent almost my entire life in. They are NOTHING like normal people. If we choose to shop in our local business around here we are treated to Christian music and blank stares because they don't recognize us as fellow cult members. When we discuss "politics" in a public place pod people turn to stare at us from all directions. They even sit and pray before biting into a Burger at the local Burger King!

I feel like I live in a movie scene whenever I venture out in public!

33. NO! Believe it or not I live in Colorado!
Over the past 10 years or so we had an INVASION of "Faithful" church goers. They have taken over whole sections of a particular town. They are fanatical, crazy, cultist, and disruptive. They created a scene at a Christmas parade after being told 6 months in advance of that parade that they would NOT be allowed to have a float in that parade because it had ALWAY been a secular event! It is a tradition that has been here for something like 50 years.

The days leading up to the parade were nothing but "Faithers" whining and moaning about Christmas being about Jesus not Santa! I wouldn't even take my kids down there to watch this parade this year because I was so disgusted with these people. It is my opinion that they are also the instigators of the Churchill issue AND the incident in Boulder where some do gooder called the Secret Service about some high school students singing an old Bob Dylan tune at their HS talent show and claiming they were "threatening the president!"

If the rest of the country could see things from my vantage point they would realize Colorado is being targeted by a bunch of real live nut cases in the form of ONE gigantic 6000 member church that was originally founded by the sleaziest and richest car dealer in the entire state!

14. As I visited with my family (most of whom are Bu$hidiots)
The activity (aside from 'easter egg hunt' -a PAGAN aspect they are in blissful denial about) was making out a 'living will'. This subject and attendant paperwork just came out seemingly spontaniously. The lunacy in Fl. was NEVER mentioned...I incinuated and attempted to illicit response as to WHY all of a sudden they were doing this. I finally made the comment 'I don't know why you all doing that, the criminal in the WH and congress are going to demand you stay -or your hospital will be picketed by the wack jobs."

Still no comment. It was as if I had said NOTHING.

This country has a segment so willing to blindly follow, that no matter WHAT their 'leaders' do, even if it goes DIRECTLY against their beliefs/wishes, they will support them uncritically.

Basically what I'm saying is my family is FUCKING INSANE!

16. Tell them living wills are out dated and not legally binding...
You need to fill out a legal power of attorney and some other document. I forget what it was. Suze (as in ooze) Orman was explaining it the other day.
