7. LOL
Hugh, that was great.

Red states can't see the forest for the trees, to coin a phrase. It also speaks the truth, as they're letting them be cut down in droves.

12. I can read "What's the Matter with Kansas" until my eyes bleed
and I will NEVER in my life understand why these impoverished bastards continue to vote for a guy that gives not one SHIT about them or the country, only his handlers. My guess is that they just don't know shit about shit or they're the type that insist the blue sky you stick them in front of is purple and polka-dotted . . . :shrug:

In the immortal words of Anthony Michael Hall: "I'm at a loss . . . "

11. That is exactly right.
Why would they want to preserve our country and take care of our people, environment, etc.? That would mean they would have to stay in "hell on earth" just a little longer. They already "know" they are going to heaven so why not help the "Rapture" out a little and bring it on a little faster!!!

It's sickening.

13. Well, there's always one wee thing that's bothered me...
Edited on Wed Feb-09-05 04:59 PM by theHandpuppet
All those folks who can't wait for the BIG R and are so sure they are going to Holygoldville when they die... well, if they're so certain heaven's waiting, why are they all so paranoid about dying, anyway? They're paranoid about terrorism, about being attacked by the menace of the week, got to arm themselves to the teeth and attack anyone who threatens them. Seems to me true people of faith wouldn't be so insanely obsessed about dying, much less be so damned afraid of getting killed they'd prefer to blow the rest of the world to smithereens for their own safety.

Logic quite escapes me with these folks.

8. Apparently Red America has believed that the nation was...
...already at risk of falling apart due to the influence of liberals, left thinking intellectuals, labor unions and atheists which was facilitating moral decay throughout the nation. Red America also has believed that the dominant race in the country was being compromised by allowing mixed neighborhoods, integrated schools and inter-breeding. Red Americans also believed that the national religion in America has always been protestant fundamentalist Christianity and again, by banning religion and pray from public schools and allowing non-Christian religions to flourish, this too was causing the nation to fall apart spiritually. In their minds they are putting the real America back together by dismantling the damage which has already occurred. That's my understanding.
