Angry Atheists

I’m an angry atheist. I admit it. In fact, I’m even proud of it. There are some things in this world that deserve no response other than unabashed, righteous anger, after all. (And that does not even come close to an exhaustive list.)
This may be the best response to people challenging my anger response.

This “angry atheist” label is the stupidest thing ever. When you consider the number of powderkeg Christians walking around with red faces and accusing glares, the idea that atheists should somehow be placid and calm in the face of hair-trigger theocratic rage is beyond asinine.
Read the Old Testament. No one’s better at anger than God.

That was a very good diatribe, actually.
And as for matthew, you know i feel that there’s just not the same quality of smiting there used to be. It’s because of pussy parents like yourself who adopt this whole “spare the rod” approach. I myself practice smiting on my wife as often as i can find the excuse, but i don’t trust that you’re doing your part.

Off topic, but this is the most current entry, so…
Which George W. Bush production is more likely to raise the curtain in the next year?
The overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Military action against Iran.
I’m skeered, either way.

“I get angry when believers say that they can know the truth — the greatest truth of all about the nature of the universe, namely the source of all existence — simply by sitting quietly and listening to their heart… and then accuse atheists of being arrogant.”
Heh… Right on.

Angry athiests are funny. They’re all broken because they feel betrayed by Gd. They need to do acid in nature, man…. then they’d see.

Maybe you should start watching the Republican debates. I find it physically impossible to keep my mouth shut while watching. (Although i’ve only watched once, tonight.)
However, for BOTH debates i’ve watched, republican and democrat, what shocks me is that no one commenting on the debates ever points out what blatant, whoring tools some of the candidates are sometimes.
Watching Romeny talk, i was dumbstruck by what a completel TOOL his is. Good for little but letting fly stock slogans and ideological dick sucking. (and i actually rather liked Ron Paul…)
On the democrat side, i was REALLY shocked to discover that actually, Obama doesn’t have much of substance to say. He is not ready for prime time so to speak. (and Kucinich is a joy to have in the debates. He can always be counted on, much like Ron Paul, to spice things up a bit, and have just a little voice who’s not a complete and utter tool.)
And Guilianni needs to SHUT the fuck UP. If you were to drink every time he mentions His Gracious Heavenly Saving of New York one… more…. f^%$#ing time…. he REALLY needs to give NYC a serious reach around.

Indeed. As crazy as some of Ron Paul’s positions are, I do get the impression that he is the most sincere and honest of all the GOP candidates, and thus I’d prefer to see him get the nomination. Which of course he won’t.
Romney is toast. The Republican base is the South, and in the South, Mormonism don’t fly. It’s that simple.
If you’d have told me a year ago that Rudy would be the front-runner, I’d have laughed my ass off. It’s a testament to the utter haplessness of the other candidates that he’s the best they can come up with. It boggles the mind.
Obama is on my no-fly list for a variety of reasons, as is Hillary. The White House does not need to be a timeshare for the Clinton and Bush families. Plus anyone who votes for the anti-flag-burning amendment gets an immediate thumbs-down from me.
Truthfully, I line up with Kucinich on most things. But of course he’s fooked, just like he was last time. I guess given the slate of “electable” candidates, I’d have to go with Edwards, but that’s a pretty grudging choice. He’s John Kerry with better cheekbones. Motherfuckers. They have this great opportunity with one of the lamest lame duck preznits ever, and they’re tossing out these wet rags as kindling. Sometimes where there’s smoke, ain’t no damn fire.

I’m telling you, it’s a confederation of tools! Although i don’t know why i bitch, it’s not like it’s any different any other time. I guess because this is a pivotal moment in US history. Embroiled in a stupid war, now hated and disrespected by the world, the dollar is CRAP, we’ve lost our economic power position, this next presidency determines whether or not we’ve truly passed our peak.

A lame duck preznit for a lame duck nation. Excellent.
I dunno, I kind of agree with curmudgeons like H.L. Mencken & Hunter Thompson (shocking, I know): I think we often get the leaders we deserve.

Yeah, so, uhm, I’ve been busy. I may post soon about a little ruckus I caused on Twitter the other day.

WTF is up with the “2 Girls 1 Cup” craze sweeping the nets right now??!!??
(if you do not know what i’m talking about, go watch a 2 Girls 1 Cup reaction video, but especially Matthew or Janell, do NOT watch the actual original video. Seriously. I got exactly 5 seconds into it. That’s it, and that’s as far as i’m going. Dean, you probably know about this, and Jeff… well, you may be a stronger man than i.)

Dear MushBucket,
Hope you managed to drag yourself through the long, boring, weekend. Now you can get back to manly activities again, thank TFSM! What a relief, as in case you forgot, girls are icky and they don’t let you scratch yourself whenever you want to, and they sing Serbian partisan songs all the damn time!!! Uh, don’t they? Come back to the smelly man club!
Love,
Burt The Hairy.

Well, mine sings ’70s classics by C.W. McCall and Abba. Mr. Pence better check to see what his woman sings in the shower, make sure she’s compatible.
As long as you remain a smelly man, you’ll always be in the club. Keep on stinkin’.

The more I learn about Card, the more I think I wouldn’t want to meet him. Still like the Ender series, though.
Whereas Phillip Pullman is a badass:

the ender series is awesome!
that was good interview, and it’s always refreshing to see 2 theologically opposed people engage in a respectful and well articulated discussion.

Figures they’re English. Americans like the shouting and junior high name-calling form of debate.
“You’re a poo-poo head!”
“No, YOU’RE a poo-poo head!”
“Your poo-poo smells like Hitler!”
“Godwin!”
“Faggot!”
“Am not!”
“Uh-huh!”
(slapping ensues)

Oh you gone done it now…
“Former ‘Law & Order’ star Fred Thompson appeared in his first presidential debate last night. Political experts called him uneven, flat and dull. In other words, Thompson was the highlight of the debate.”
“Last night, Fox News aired the second Republican presidential debate. My favorite part was when the white guy went after those two white guys, and three other white guys chimed in.”
“During last week’s Republican debate, three of the ten candidates said they did not believe in evolution, including Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who added that he would defend his conviction from one edge of the Earth to the other.”
“My favorite part of the debate was when Chris Matthews asked, ‘Who does not believe in evolution?’ And Sam Brownback, Mike Huckabee and Tom Tancredo all raised their paw. … They said they do not believe in evolution. Then they said the biggest threat to America is religious radicals living in the Dark Ages. “
“Mitt Romney, who is a Mormon, is reeling from reports that his great-grandfather had fives wives and at least one of his great-great-grandfathers had twelve. That poor bastard had to register at Crate and Barrel 12 times. And that’s back when all they sold were crates and barrels. … The word ‘polygamy’, of course, comes from the Greek ‘poly’ meaning multiple and ‘gamy’ meaning reasons not to vote for Mitt Romney.”
