THEM!

They hate us. They hate America. They want America to fail and they revel in every defeat they perceive in their evil, twisted minds. It disgusts me that they are allowed to live here, in the country they hate so much.

I speak, of course, of tea-baggers.

You thought I went south for a second there, eh? Ha! Sorry.

Teabaggers, *patriots* aren't much different from the Muslim terrorists they sometimes rail against. They have more in common with them than they will ever admit. Both want America to fail so that they can take over. Both are working towards America to fail so they can take over. And, to an extent, both are doing it.... for God.

Fucking ironic, huh?

Freedom OF religion also means freedom FROM religion. Separation of church and state, means that, although we are a largely Christian nation, that doesn't make us "a Christian nation". The founders seemed very certain about religious majority NOT ruling the country. They were kinda progressive in that respect....

If you don't think anything else the founding fathers ever said was righteous, profound or from God's lips to their ears, you have to respect that they took the time and had the foresight to understand that NO church should run this country. They knew what they were talking about. See, there had been this thing with England....

But, curious how the *right* in this country, all wrapped up in the flag as they are, embraces religion..... as they attack America and America's latest enemies, the Muslims, for their religion.

The Koran means as little to me as the Bible. If either means something to you, great. Just don't use either against me. It's wrong, it's rude and, well, it unconstituitional to do so.

I read alot lately about the Koran and Sharia law. Evidently, according to Sharia law, a husband is allowed to beat his wife for various infractions. (This has nothing to do with spankings so, whew, I'm covered!)

That sounds like our "rule of thumb". Up through the 19th century, it was permissable for a man to beat his wife (or children) as long as he used a stick .... no bigger than his thumb! Yeah, THAT'S where that expression came from! I guess that, at the time, it was the Christian thing to do. And I think it was based on something from the bible....

Anyone who lets a book written two thousand years rule their life needs.... such a book, I guess. Life's not hard enough that you need guideance from people who, though they roamed the earth with dinosaurs could not see the value of them in fuel to power automobiles at the time?? Your local book store has a full rack of self help books, each one better than the last and all, an easier read than the Bible. Though I'm not a communist, Marx or Engles nailed it when they said "religion is the opiate of the masses" and, that, "if God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him". Religion is designed to keep people in line. That's probably not a bad thing....seemed like a good idea at the time.... then they figured out it was a money-maker.....

And, it's control, which is what everybody wants in their life. If you gain control, the money follows. But, it's all about the money. Don't kid yourself.

I've come to realize that most of the folks on Topix are crazy right wingers.
It's fun to laugh at them sometimes, and egg them on, it's become a source of amusement for both my husband and myself.
Did you click on the "marijuana" topic and see how many favor legalization? it's very telling, looks like most people are puffers.
Hope you're well.

I am well, Annie and hope you and all are as well. I'll look at that thread. The image of the old hippie liberals isn't quite right anymore, as the "right" seems to be getting their smoke on more than us. Geez- you'd think they'd chill out....
