My Top 10

Top Ten Signs You're a Fundamentalist Christian:

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."

3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

Islamists attack schoolgirls with acid.

Schoolgirls and teachers were attacked with acid by Islamists in Afghanistan. The Islamist nutjobs were hired to conduct the attack by the Taliban. See, the Taliban (probably correctly) assume that Mohammed wouldn't want girls to go to school. Why? Cuz they're girls.

Here's the same question that comes to mind every time I read about this sort of thing: is the 1500 year old ramblings of a polygamous, semi-literate pedophile a really good guide for social behavior in the 21st century? (let alone the 6th?)

And as usual, the silence from the Islamic world is deafening. Their whining about the West's disgust with such actions will be much louder. It always is.

Take your job and shove it.

Dear Jesus: Please kill Chrysler, GM, and Ford.

Thanks in advance,

So a crappy company puts out an inferior product, and I should pay for it via my taxes? Let's get something straight here. The product wasn't good enough for me the first time around. Why the f*ck should I pay for it now? Seems GM, CAW, and the US government all have the same business plan: redistribute money from successful companies and give it to shitty ones. That's just brilliant. And the CAW has said that they'll not take any reduction in pay. I mean, heaven forbid they make less than $30/hr doing a job that a retarded baboon or George W could do after a few hours of training. I guess making $25/hr is a fate worse than losing your job and finding out you're actually not qualified to make more than $11/hr.
