Michele Bachmann Terrorized By… What, Today… 15th Century Art

Bachmann also adores Schaeffer follower Nancy Pearcey, a prominent creationist whose recent book is “Saving Leonardo: A Call to Resist the Secular Assault on Mind, Morals, and Meaning.” That’s Leonardo as in “da Vinci,” whose famous drawing of “Vitruvian Man” shows a human being inscribed within a perfect circle and a perfect square. The artist made the ungodly error of putting humanity at the center of time and space.

2. She can take a page out of Ashcroft's book and buy drapes or....

follow the Taliban and blow up heathen images. This is her big chance to make a lasting mark or ditch in the world. While she is at it she may want to also ban photography.

7. Who knows what these people are thinking

Maybe that Leo should have joined in on the Protestant Reformation before he died

4. Frank Schaeffer Jr is going to be her worst nightmare.

Christian Terror in Norway: I Predicted Terror from the Religious Right in My New Book "Sex, Mom and God"

To understand why an irrational self-defeating action like destroying the credit of the USA might seem like the right thing to do you have to understand two things: that the Republican Party is now the party of religious fanatics and that these fanatics -- people like Michele Bachmann -- don't want to work within our system, they want to bring it down along the lines of so-called Christian "Reconstruction." (See my book for a full account of what this is.)

6. applying logical to God's creation is sacrilege

It implies that man is the equal of God

8. I heard she doesn't like the Magna Carta either.

The 19th century treaties between the US and Indian tribes were OK tho.
