Dave Brown, a Christian retailer, says on Deborah Norville Tonight: The Cross is absolutely the central element of Christianity. Funny, I always thought the central element of Christianity concerned the Christian deity’s relationship to humanity. Maybe that’s what makes the marketing of Jesus acceptable. I’ve been wrong: it’s really about the things, not the man.

There Ought To Be Limits
January 16th, 2004 · 8 Comments
In 1999, while campaigning to become the President of the Land of the Free, in response to a website that poked fun at him, now-President George W. Bush said, There ought to be limits to freedom. Since then, he’s acted as if this were a campaign promise — and one which must be kept at […]

What Would Jesus Drive?

Well, after the last two days of some pretty miserable discussions with a self-hating Jew, I thought it was time for a little religious humor…

A Higher Law?
September 17th, 2003 · 1 Comment
If Moore, Schenk and the rest of their clan would spend more time actually worshiping their god instead of waging war on the Constitution, it would not be necessary to ask the courts and the government to do it for them.

Branded

Hmmm…
What do you do when you’re Branded,
And you know you’re a man…. – Lyrics from “Branded”, which originally aired on ABC from 1965-1966.
I’m starting to worry about being labeled a Moore scholar.

Thou Shalt Not Revolt
August 24th, 2003 · 22 Comments
Somehow my original excerpt to let you know something of this article was lost. So I’m resending this note. Below is an excerpt from the article.
The Ten Commandments Judge has decided that he will not accept the ruling of the Federal Court which ordered the removal of the idol to his god which he planted on government property using government funds while insisting that this government belongs to his god and we must acknowledge that god.
He refuses even though all other justices of his own court have overruled him.
He has decided that he will not honor the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, which refused to take the case on appeal.
But without the Rule of Law, true freedom is impossible.
It is this freedom which the government endorses and keeps alive when it takes a neutral position—neither including monuments supporting nor making laws disallowing—the religious beliefs of any particular group.
And this Rule of Law is what has christians gnashing their teeth and swearing they will not obey the Constitution of the United States of America nor any of its agents.
For more on this, including quotes from the Founding Fathers on the separation of Church and State, click the link below.

The “Right” Religion
August 20th, 2003 · 2 Comments
It’s always interesting for me to see the intersection between what I think and what the “right” thinkers say. (And, for the record, although I engage in a little word-play in explicating the differences betwixt Peter Sean Bradley and myself, I have—at least so far—nothing but respect for him, although I recognize there are huge […]

“Let’s Get This Straight”

That’s what Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore said to a mob that gathered to support his flouting federal law and a court order. What exactly are we supposed to get straight? “It’s about the acknowledgement of

Mel Gibson: Antisemitic Jew-Baiter?
August 3rd, 2003 · 30 Comments
Someone sent me a link to a New York Times story indicating that Mel Gibson is possibly antisemitic, is producing a film that will inflame the world against the Jewish population and is involved in baiting Jews and sowing religious conflict. Is Mel Gibson—and the movie he is producing named The Passion—antisemitic?
