onemanlan posted:However that being said... I have found my new favorite topic: Atheism and Obesity links. Hmmm lets see if they can put sounds science to the test and.... nope just a lot of coincidences while turning a blind eye to their own. Given the efforts of Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, and Glenn Beck to paint Michelle Obama's anti-childhood obesity campaign as an attempt to institute tyrannical food communism, I wonder if they'll change it.

Orange Devil posted:In the SC2 single player campaign, you play Jim Raynor, a terrorist who violently resists and eventually overthrows the large Terran Federation. Since all Muslims are terrorists, and this game has the terrorists winning, clearly this game sends pro-Islamic messages. You also fight againt a particularly fanatical group of Protoss Templar. The Knights Templar fought against Muslims during the Crusades, so that makes you one too.

potato! posted:Barack Obama OK, there's some stuff wrong with that statement, but I can't believe they were willing to give him that. I can't remember exactly who, but I've seen the vey same highly regarded conservative figures who used to Obama election as an excuse to go completely insane and opposing things they were once for now that Obama is against them trash Obama because he claimed to want to usher in an era of bipartisanship, but if he wanted that, then why did he make Republicans go into scoeched-Earth mode?

Bruce Leroy posted:But what about all the conservative pundits that keep going on about how Obama has pissed off real liberals by doing all those things I mentioned? Like Amarkov said, the closest I've seen to a Republican saying this is Rush Limbaugh saying that "Liberals are mad at Obama for not destroying the country fast enough." It's in the Republicans interest to say that the mess we're in is due to big government socialism and (non-existant) tax hikes, rather than obstructionism and Obama implementing their policies, and it's in the Democrats interest to obscure how much they're like the Republicans.

The Republican/Fox/AM radio messaging machine keeps them from realizing Obama isn't a crypto-Republican. He has a "D" next to his name, so he's a bad liberal who makes bad liberal policies.

I don't know how much steam the "Obama is a Muslim" thing has anymore, but one other reason that people say he isn't christian is because of abortion. If you honestly believe it's murder and oppose it on religious grounds, then you're going to have problems with anyone who isn't 100% against it or belongs to a party that's seen as for it.

There is also the matter that God considered killing (or in the case of David after he engineered the death of Uriah the Hittite so he could bang his wife Bethsheba, slowly, torturously killing with illness) babies an acceptable substitute for punishing a guy who, you know, actually did something wrong.

They also attribute anything anyone who doesn't have an R next to their name says about current events to Obama. Someone points out that the GoP can't accuse Obama of being weak on terror after Bin Laden's death? Obama is shown answering every question with "I killed Bin Laden ." Economist points out that the recession started under Bush? Political cartoons draw Obama whining about Bush.

Bruce Leroy posted:What are the odds that the animals on the Ark didn't reproduce at all during the several months at sea? Reproduction means more animals, which means more mouths to feed and more space needed. I've heard explanations for this, as well as the genocide of the Canaanites and others justified as 1) There weren't that many firstborn due to higher infant mortality and whatnot 2) Doing what you suggest would leave the children to starve in a harsh wilderness, just killing them was more humane 3) Since they all lived in an honor/shame society, the descendents would have never stopped seeking revenge, so they had to prevent it from happening. The problem with God hardening Pharoah's heart is usually handwaved as: "No, you see, it means God let Pharaoh harden his own heart. I thought we liked free will?" "Yes but it says God did the hardening right there." "Well Pharaoh hardened his own heart the first few times, so God was justified in doing it later." "But still, it says God hardened Pharaoh's heart after he decided to free the Israelites." "No, you see, it means God let Pharaoh harden his own heart..."

Ann Coulter trolling and believing the Republican party line aren't mutually exclusive. Her fans know that what she's saying is over the top and trying to get a rise out of people, and any outrage at "Our blacks are better" or whatever is taken as proof that we can't argue against her without being mad, or that she's revealed some deep insecurity or crack in the liberal facade.

From Homosexual Agenda:quote:Among all the liberal belief systems, the homosexual ideology is the most self-centered or selfish. I'm surprised they singled out gays here. I tend to go "evil" on the "stupid vs. evil" debates, and therefore think that most of the hatred of gays in the right was intentionally stirred up with the idea that they'd make a convenient punching bag, rather than high-level Republicans actually being worried about them.

Didn't someone mention how Schafly threw imaginary numbers into the evil liberal academic conspiracy to doubt the plain truth of Christianity, and people boggled at how an electrical engineer would not see their practical purpose? Because I just skimmed the page for complex numbers, and it's one of those rare pages where none of the authors' beliefs are shoved in. The talk page mentions a quote from the Pope, though
