Gretchen Carlson And Franklin Graham See “Assault On Christianity” In Prayer Day Court Decision

4 Comments 22 April 2010

Franklin Graham is the beloved son of the beloved evangelist Billy Graham. But poor Franklin might not be able to give his National Day of Prayer sermon at the Pentagon because the evil secularists at the Military Religious Freedom Foundation are urging the Pentagon to cancel his speech because of past remarks that Graham has made about how Islam is “wicked” – comments which Christian right pastors and those who post on Fox Nation are in agreement with. So not surprisingly, Graham appeared this morning on the Fox News morning bible show otherwise known as Fox & Friends. Graham is being persecuted and Fox & Friends is there to provide sanctuary and a pulpit for Graham to proselytize from. His sermonette included a homily on that evil, librul judge who said that the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional. It also included the requisite right wing attack on Islam. Can somebody give me an amen!

LOL!! You simply must read the rest of this article, including the video, over at News Hounds. They watch Fox News so we don’t have to!

Pope Calls Coverage Of Church-Sanctioned Child Rape 'Petty Gossip'

No Comments 29 March 2010

The Pope has spoken of the need not to be intimidated by critics, in a veiled reference to anger at the Catholic Church over past sex abuse scandals.

At a Mass in Rome’s St Peter’s Square, he said his faith would help give him the courage to deflect “petty gossip”.

The Pope has been accused of failing to act over the case of a US priest alleged to have abused 200 deaf boys.

But the Archbishop of Westminster defended the Pope, saying he had introduced rules to protect children.

Sure thing, Bene. When all else fails, blame the media. You can read the rest of this article at BBC News.

A Cavalcade of Crazy: DATELINE: The Dark Ages-Amarillo, TX

Why is this organized destruction of the reputations of innocent people allowed to go on like this? The DA down there should be bringing all the powers of the justice system to bear on this group of jihadists like a ton of bricks.  Arrest Grisham immediately for libel, criminal harassment, and violating citizens’ constitutional rights of life and liberty under the law.

The first amendment shouldn’t protect this crap. They can spend the rest of their lives compensating their victims for the injury and suffering they’ve caused. Not another person should be terrorized by these law-breakers. I have two words for this so-called Army of God: David Koresh. It’s past time to line up the battle wagons against Grisham and his goons.

Wrong country, wrong century, wrong god. Unacceptable on every level. Only twisted religious freaks could believe Jesus would ever endorse this kind of hate and persecution. Oh, and Grisham is also a security guard at a nuclear weapons storage facility? Great. General Ripper meets Randall Flagg. No reason to be concerned about that.

Here’s what you do, Dave. Move your operation to a repressive place like Iran. You’d fit right in over there. Of course, you’d probably have to switch religions. Better yet, save yourself the inevitable court costs and legal fees and drink the Kool-Aid now.

It’s disgraceful that the City of Amarillo is evidently content to do nothing but watch this happen to their neighbors. And always shameful to see some employers in town piling on the people who were libeled instead of turning against the holier-than-thou inquisitors. That they still have a long way to go in Texas has sure become a tiresome observation.

Germany's Coming Energy Revolution.

Electric cars, intelligent washing machines, mini power plants in your basement: Germany is on the verge of an energy revolution. SPIEGEL ONLINE looks at the latest developments in the smart grid and how it will change the relationship between consumers and energy suppliers.

The power grid of the future is one of humanity’s boldest visions. Gigantic wind farms in the sea and enormous solar fields in the desert are to generate the bulk of our power in the years to come. But consumers and companies are also producing energy with mini-power plants in their own basements and solar panels on the roof. And intelligent appliances are saving energy in our homes: washers, dryers and refrigerators that communicate with each other wash, dry or cool when electricity is cheapest. The information age is arriving at a new level: It’s becoming the electricity age.

The electricity age is imminent in six German regions: The technology of the future for smart energy management is going to be developed and tested, under the label E-Energy, in several cities. A number of projects will kick into high gear this month. Tens of thousands of homes and hundreds of companies are expected to participate in the field tests. Research will be conducted into the possibility, for example, of homes that can largely produce all the electricity required by a household, as well as energy exchanges that enable consumers to sell any excess, self-produced and environmentally friendly electricity at a profit back to the energy grid.

Together with firms like Siemens, SAP, IBM and energy giants like EnBW, RWE and Vattenfall, Germany’s economics and environment ministries have already mobilized €140 million for the development of the associated technologies and the tests. The government has provided €60 million and the industrial partners are raising the rest together with public utilities and smaller, innovative technology partners. According to Ludwig Karg, one of the researchers working together with scientists and communication experts in the model regions, E-Energy is intended to jump-start a greater energy revolution in Germany. “We are providing German companies with future access to markets worth billions,” he said.

Poster Comment: We could have led this revolution, but no, we gotta give wellfare to that good ol’ 19th century tech.  God’s followers (and the money changers who support them) don’t like smart, independent Americans.  Truly Independent and smart Americans scare them and make them feel inadequate. They’d much rather have the blood, guts and Travail‡.

Obama, Notre Dame and Abortion

No Comments 10 May 2009

Courtesy NYTimes:

Discord is nothing new for Roman Catholicism. But the controversy surrounding the appearance of President Obama at the University of Notre Dame’s commencement on May 17 suggests that run-of-the mill discord among American Catholics is escalating into something closer to civil war.

Just watch that airplane circling over the famous Golden Dome of Notre Dame’s Main Building and the spire of the university’s Basilica of the Sacred Heart. The plane pulls a banner with a picture of an aborted fetus.

The group flying the banner is unhappy not just with the university but also, according to a spokesman quoted in The South Bend Tribune, with “the pro-life community at Notre Dame.”

“If they were doing a good job of reaching the campus,” he said, “it’s unlikely Obama would have been invited.”

Now listen to Bishop Robert W. Finn, bishop of the Kansas City-St. Joseph Diocese in Missouri. “We are at war!” he told an anti-abortion convention on April 18. “We are engaged in a constant warfare with Satan.”
