The War on Christmas...err, Christ
Interesting graphic used on the site 'Evil Conservatives'. Probably meant as tongue-in-cheek, but nauseating nonetheless.



And *we* are accused of not respecting little Baby Jesus enough? This image is extremely offensive.

They seem slightly more literate than FR, but just as ill-informed and oozing with FAUX propaganda.

2. But, when Jesus said love your enemies, he didn't mean you shouldn't
shoot them, right?

Right?

4. Evil Conservatives Rule.
You have to understand something. We are not nice conservatives. We are not meek. We are not concerned with your "feelings". I understand that your precious feelings might be hurt by our site, but folks like you are what inspired such a ridiculous site in the first place. We have liberals on our board that can legitimately debate. We encourage that.

I think part of the problem is that you are convinced that being a Christian means that we are supposed to be nice to the people who constantly threaten us, put us down, mock us. How is accepting an actual historical figure who was documented to perform miracles as the son of God more ridiculous than the confused among you who cry yourself to sleep convinced that global warming is caused because of Man/Women/Transvestites. Neither one of these things can be PROVEN. They both require faith.

"They seem slightly more literate than FR" - thanks, that's the closest thing to a compliment that we've gotten from a liberal board.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Now, lets see who can come up with the most snide and smug response. :)

7. I'm not finished yet- I think that Evilcon would not know a
Christian if they came up to him and gave him a haircut. I run into 'Christians' everyday who know nothing more about Christ than the fact that he died. They are what Cornel West calls Constantinian Christians. Or what might be called an Old Testament Christian. That is to say not a Christian at all. Folks for whom the Gospels of Christ have no meaning, because the message of Christ has no place in the hearts of folks that don't believe in Jesus. That's alright, as my old Mother would say, 'They already have their reward'.

Can you link this to something other than the bible?

11. ...and just who threatens you?
This ridiculous persecution complex is laughable, it truly is. How a vast majority can claim to be 'threatened' is one of the dumbest fables in history.

Oh, and happy holidays....

(btw, I said 'slightly', so don't let it go to your head)

12. "Evil Conservatives" is an oxymoron
There is no evidence "nice" conservatives exist, I have no faith in their existence, and therefore your attempt to distinguish yourself is nothing but bullshit.

15. Yes you are supposed to be "nice" to those who threaten you, etc.
That is the very essence of Christianity.

How can you be a Christian? You haven't read the Gospels.

6. Oy vey
I'm not clicking that link - however . . . Ironically - that's EXACTLY how I see Jesus in present day America. Seriously. With a big gun getting ready to blow the heads off of gay bashers, racists, sexists. . . He was only human after all. And he was a fist pumping radical. Where's the boom box blaring Adam Sandlers Hannukah song? Right on man!

Oh - how I'd love for one of them to come here and see what I just typed above! LMAO! You gotta turn it right back around on these Revelationist wing nuts.

14. The way I figure it, if Jesus would have had that Winchester...
and gone against virtually everything he taught and spoke of...he would no have been hanging around w/those other two guys at Calvary.

Is this witty and snide enough for you? Wonder where #3 is. Maybe 1+1=3? Maybe you can't count? Is this witty or snide enough yet?

24. Oh please, give me a break I was banned from
Freeper Land for asking the simplest of questions. Talk about not tolerating different opinions. And just what does eating cheese have to with being a 'surrender monkey'? What is a surrender monkey?

20. Every time someone joins a labor union the baby Jesus cries.
One of the more freepier freeps in Georgia spewed that little nugget to me once. I couldn't help but bust out laughing right in his face.

Amazing what they'll use Jesus for..........

23. Surrender Monkeys
Edited on Sun Dec-02-07 10:56 PM by JustAnotherGen
Oh please - Skinner - please let the Neocon's comment stand. Please - it will remind us what we'll get (mad moms in minivans in the midwest involved in Pyramid Schemes and prayer groups) if another Republican ends up in the White House. I'd love to go to their board and post that there are Dems like me that according to Obama are in the top 6% of earners in the country, drink wine, and just spent the last weekend making mad crazy love to a French man from Lyon (surrender monkey) that owns 4 Ferraris . . . but I can do that here and get patted on the back.

Okay let's dissect this.

1. You had more children that you can afford based on the fact that
2. You both work and can STILL barely make your bills each month.

Why didn't you use family planning? Why whine about it here?

3. Stop brain storming. I didnt' make it to where I am by brain storming. Get out there and make it happen. Where there's a will there's a way.

4. The Government should NOT help you. But the Government should also NOT stand in your way. The Republican way is designed that only 6% get to be in the top earners. I want more people with me where I am. I truly believe my government in the 'Republican' way enjoys/likes the fact that you live paycheck to paycheck . . . as it keeps you in check.

5. It's great you teach your kids to depend only on themselves. My dad's father was a black man born in 1898 - who went to college, then took over his family's farm. But this was the 1920's. So he got into moonshine as a young man. He sent 9 kids to college on that money. Teach your children that when the laws (see number 4) are set up against them - to get around them to get ahead.

6. That's great you contribute to charitable organizations. Did you know? Right now you can contribute to Save Darfur? Also - the women there are in need of solar cookers.

7. There are 'no gay people in Iran' per their President. Your comment doesn't make any sense. I don't believe in that. I don't believe in the bogey man, the lochness monster, santa clause, UFO's, Virgin Births, or Leprachauns either. You are just being lead by your government and want to believe that there is an enemy . . . because your financial situation is so bad. Really - what you've described is a paycheck to paycheck American on the brink of financial disaster.

9. If you profess to be a Christian (I'm not) I thought that making fun of others was not allowed? And even though we make fun of you - aren't you supposed to turn the other cheek?

I said I wouldn't go to your forum. And I won't. So if you come back here - BIG HUG. I actually feel bad for you. You are indeed the downtrodden middle class - but I also want to THANK YOU.

See fellow Dems - it's not in the bag. Some guy or woman with three kids that can barely afford to feed them REALLY believe in a bogeyman across the ocean and that it's a religious war. These people cannot be allowed to win again. They've gotten close to 4K American men and women killed in the Iraq Occupation over this bogey man/monster in the closet nonsense.
