Tony Perkins and Bush Ploy to stack the Supreme Court

Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council has been plotting with Bush as to how to rig the Supreme Court and bypass the Democratic Controlled Senate? How is he going to do it? That's a mystery. By if you listen to this audio clip you'll hear Tony Perkins talking about that he is in contact with the Whitehouse and has talked to Bush and that he is concerned about the Democrats in the Senate blocking him. But, Tont goes on to say, "The is a way around that", that they are looking into and that it's going to be a "major major fight". Seek to 24 minutes in to the clip.

Additionally the FRC is dumping their exclusive relationship with Republicans. They are currently "praying about it.", waiting for God to give then the go ahead to get in bed with the Dems.

So - the question is - what's the trick. I want to know what he means by "a way around that". What is that all about? Is there a Christuan Coop in the works to take the Supreme Court by deceptions and trickery? What are evangelicals plotting this time?

Iraq - It's Over! We lost!

Letter to the Editor

For those who haven't figured it out yet the Iraq war is over and we have lost it. Now we have to figure out how to get out of there and make the best of what we have left. The Congress has a choice to make now. Are we going to face reality or are we going to send more soldiers to fight and die so that Bush can save face? I for one believe the sending soldiers to die for politics is murder.

This is Bush's war. Bush is far to dishonest and incompetent to handle the problems he created. It is now time for Bush and Cheney to resign and step aside and resign. It is time to find someone else to clean up Bush's mess. American should not have to continue to bleed while Bush runs out the clock. Bush can't handle it and it's time for him to get out. Getting rid of Bush will send a message to the rest of the world that America is serious about change. Something that our froends need to see.

Say after me. Bush get out! Bush get out! Bush get out!

God by definition can not be proven by science

Follow this logic:

God is by definition supernatural.
To be supernatural you must be outside of the natural world.
Supernatural and Natural are mutually exclusive.
Anything that can be scientifically proven is part of the natural world.
Therefore anything supernatural can not be scientifically proven.
Therefore God can not be scientifically proven.
Therefore any scientific proof that God is supernatural must by definition fail.
Since God by definition must be supernatural to exist, then the existence of God can not be proved by science.
If God were proved by science then it would be part of the natural world and therefore not God.

BTW - this is a trap to get believers to think about reality. We in the Church of Reality believe that the more you use logic the more you will reprogram your brain to think about reality. Thinking undermines faith. If you think about this it might cause you to question what you believe. You are hereby warned not to risk your immortal soul by thinking about this. God prefers people who don't think over people who do because people who don't think have an easier time of believing without questioning than people who do think.

Reality is in - Faith is out

Letter to the Editor

After six years of faith based government reality is making a comeback. For the last six years we were expected to blindly follow the government and do whatever Bush wants. It was a Crusade against terrorism that was really a proxy war of Christians vs. Islam to determine which religion has the stronger fictional deity. Americans being asked to surrender their freedom in the name of freedom and to surrender their liberty in the name of liberty.

Bush declared that he was above the law and whenever he broke the law Congress would try to change the law to make it legal. Bush brought back torture from the middle ages with people being kidnapped and hauled off to a network of secret prisons. To question any of this was blasphemy. Money was being spent like there was no tomorrow as if our acts didn't matter because Jesus was coming back and the world was soon to end. And if we all believe it hard enough then it would come to pass.

Now faith is out and reality is back. Now people want to find real solutions that really work. When the new Secretary of Defense said that we were not winning the war in Iraq the Armed Services Committee all voted for him. Now people want real solutions to real problems. Every time faith puts us on the path of extinction America turns back to reality to restore our strength. That's because reality works. Reality changed my life. It can change your's too. Make reality part of your life today.

Republicans still don't get it

Letter to the Editor

Even after the landslide election last month Republicans still don't get it. Newt Gingrich is proposing what I would call "supervised free speech" as a dinner in honor of the First Amendment. Republicans are still using Bush logic. They think that freedom is giving up your freedom to the government. They think that peace can only be achieved through war without end. They think fiscal responsibility is spending like there's no tomorrow. They shred the constitution and call it patriotism.

Republicans have no chance of winning in 2008 for the same reason they lost in 2006. That reason - George W Bush. If the voters don't like Bush now they definitely won't like him 2 years from now. So Republican will either have to embrace Bush and go down with him, or try to be more against Bush than the Democrats are. Quite frankly if I were a Republican up for election in two years I'd switch parties now because the Republicans are stuck with Bush and he's going to bring them down again.
