    What’s this about baby blood? Is it related to the repeal on banning stem-cell research?

  2. Kingj says:

    You might like to see this video and maybe even put it up. I think it could be start for a good thread. It is “Father Baron on the new Atheists”

    When Bush was in power it was “unpatriotic” to call him out on his bullshit… But now that Obama’s in, the right can’t seem to bash him enough, some even actively routing for him to fail. Fucking. Hypocrites.

  4. Joe L. says:

    @LRA -
    no, i’m pretty sure it’s just a slam against Obama’s general support for Roe v. Wade.
    you know…. kind of like how a large majority of American’s defend Roe v. Wade.

    It has nothing to do with him having a direct effect or impact on abortion or abortion rights or anything like that, because of course, being President for only 2 months and not appointing any Supreme Court Justices yet, he has had no real impact on abortion.

  5. DarkMatter says:

    Could it be maths?

  6. gamingguy says:

    My god! How could they?! Inviting the PRESIDENT to speak? He’s only the second most powerful person in the world (after Chuck Norris)! What were they thinking having someone with varying opinions speak?

  7. professoryackle says:

    Surely it’s a Poe?

  8. James says:

    Obama needs to stop supporting infanticide. If these babies aren’t born, there won’t be enough children for all the priests to molest.

  9. Framtonm says:

    You can’t have stem cell research! Think of all those people who might be cured of debilitating diseases and injuries when they should be suffering for Christ. I, mean, shit….

    (This IS sarcasm. I’d hate you to think I meant that.)

  10. Kitty says:

    Well. That was a very mature way of hoisting a protest. For some reason I’m reminded of the Westboro Baptist Church’s re-invention of ‘We are the World’ (optimistically entitled ‘God HATES the World’!).

  11. James P. says:

    Is it just me, or does the Jesus figure in the video look sexy?

    [OK, I deleted the rest of this comment because it got really steamy and over-the-top annnnnnd... I just cannot bring myself to offend some people as much as it would have.

    [I also considered why it was that I wanted for a moment to post my racy, lascivious, perverse comment, with all its XXX content. It occurred to me that part of me really did want to insult the hell out of certain people. Why? Because stuff like theirs insults me every day, and they seem to feel so entitled to their opinions being sacrosanct and above criticism. They kind of make me sick up a little in my mouth.

    [But then I thought about it. The fact is, I'd fight to the death to defend their right to voice their opinions, and fight to protect them from being treated as anything less than citizens in equal standing with all other citizens. That they would not extend the same honor to me just proves that they are sadly mixed up in their priorities, and really on two sides of the issue, because as professed Xians (or Muslims, as the case might be) they ought to be quite magnanimous, generous, forgiving and kind, and as world citizens they ought to countenance the Charter of Human Rights as a complement to their religion of peace.

    [As humorous as my extremely offensive comment was--and it was sure to have produced many a hearty guffaw and probably a few wet screens and keyboards--it behooves me to rise above the level of those who would put their religion ahead of human decency, respect, and honor.

    [So I quashed the comment that was going to appear here... though it was rip-roaringly, side-splittingly, headdeskingly funny at Jesus' expense. Which would have been sad, because he really does look sexy in the video image.]

    Rrrrriiiiiiiight…..

  13. LRA says:

    Perhaps you’re right. I though it might be about stem-cell research because most people who are against it don’t seem to realize that the embryos are going in the TRASH otherwise!

  14. Joe L. says:

    yeah, i know…. seems like any conversation with an anti-stem cell proponent should be very short.

    A: Do you support stem-cell research?

    B: No, i think it’s immoral

    A: Do you support in-vitro fertilization?

    B: (99% of responses) Yes, I think couples should be allowed to try to have babies through medical technology if they are unable to naturally.

    A: End of discussion. You lose.

  15. But don’t you realize that millions of girls are going to go out and have abortions just so that they can support stem cell research???

    (Um…. yeah… that’s sarcasm there… but exactly what the religious ‘right’ uses as their argument. Total madness)

    But what they don’t talk about with stem cell research is that part of the research is the principle that adult stem cell lines could be manipulated to generate embryonic-like stem cell lines, which would allow the creation of stem cells without using embryos. BUT you need the embryonic stem cells to study in order to make these breakthroughs. And yes, the embryos they use would be going in the garbage anyways- so what’s the problem?

    I have little patience for people who blindly embrace ignorance just because there’s a “cause” attached to it.

  16. Somegreencat says:

    Wendy don’t you know that the religious right and their allies are allowed to change what is and isn’t unpatriotic.

  17. trj says:

    It’s simply a matter of definition.

    “unpatriotic” = “not republican”

    Once you apply this definition everything instantly makes sense.

  18. Thomas says:

    dear Wendy

    “Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use violence to get what they want. That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion.”

    “Any country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor.”

    ~ Mother Teresa

    “I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion
    is already born.”

    ~ Ronald Reagan

  19. Roger says:

    Dude…that was a hott Jesus.

  20. Roger says:

    Yay, you can quote mine. Good for you!

    Now, care to explain why “Mother” Teresa didn’t bother to try to actually improve the lives of the impoverished people she claimed to care so much about? Why she never advocated for birth control–in ANY form, which would have begun to ease the population problems which exacerbated poverty?

    While you’re at it, please explain why Ronald Reagan’s economic and social policies only created more misery for the post-born. He may have loved fetuses, but he sure didn’t give a crap about people once they got here.
