The ones Shrub breaks daily.

I would venture to say he also breaks 1 and 5. My guess is that he's about a 50 cent cab ride from thinking he IS God.
ReplyDeleteOr the Australian version

ReplyDeleteCan I get a hallelujah?

5. Put nothin' before a stubbie of the amber ale.
Yah. See. Problem is, I'm more a whiskey guy. And I'm workin' on my poofterishness right now by tryin' to drink more red wine for my heart, so...
Still, ya gotta give 'er a good RAmen!, eh.
"Our currency even says, 'In God We Trust.'
ReplyDeleteAh, if so sayeth the currency, then it must be true.
Money sure talks in the USA, Eh?
OK then, shall I pack my suitcases and move to a more sane country?
You know, when we had prayer in the schools, black people had equality, women weren't treated like marital property, children weren't forced to work in factories, and there were no wars. Oh, wait....
ReplyDeleteAlas! I believe their be no more sane countries. They've all got sheople in 'em.

Brando, You say that like it's a bad thing .. oh.. wait. Dig it.
{shakin'head} I just read a report on how child labor rising steadily in India.
namaste irregardless...
If I moved to a more sane country, they'd hate me because they'd think I'm an insane American.
ReplyDeleteAs for that link with the clipping, even though I think that tolerance is increasing for other groups, atheists have the longest way to go and are still the most hated and misunderstood group. Even though statistics are showing higher numbers of people who don't claim a religious affiliation, people who claim to be atheist or agnostic is still around 2%. I always have to be a damned two-percenter no matter what I do in life.
Yep. That's us. Silly Two-Percenters.

I wish I knew it was really just 2%.
ReplyDeleteYeah. I doubt that there's an extraordinarily effective - read "reliable" - way to determine the true numbers. My guess is it's a Lot higher when you include folks who don't bother even wondering 'bout the supernatural. They figure "shit happens" and include "God" as one of those things.
ReplyDeleteThat's less "belief" than apathy, eh. Of that I'm sure there's more than an abundance of practitioners...
that thing totally split my guts in to when i read it. i felt like the dog coming out of water and needing to shake it all off except it seemed i couldn't.
