I love the logic diagram in the middle... yep, sounds like what those wacky theists believe

Meanwhile, a Taliban group also sent two letters to the Lahore Press Club - one on October 12 and the other on October 14 - warning that if the media “does not stop portraying us as terrorists ... we will blow up offices of journalists and media organisations”.

A federal judge challenged the backers of California's voter-enacted ban on same-sex marriage Wednesday to explain how allowing gay couples to wed threatens conventional unions, a demand that prompted their lawyer to acknowledge he did not know.
"What is the harm to the procreation purpose you outlined of allowing same-sex couples to get married?" [U.S. District Chief Judge] Walker asked.
"My answer is, I don't know. I don't know," Cooper [lawyer for the group that sponsored Proposition 8] answered.
"I'm not a racist. I just don't believe in mixing the races that way," Bardwell told the Associated Press on Thursday. "I have piles and piles of black friends. They come to my home, I marry them, they use my bathroom. I treat them just like everyone else."
Assuming that all are filled to capacity, that even the smallest of them can accommodate at least 400 people, and liberally adding 20,000,000 extra seats, the total number of available seats in churches across America is 59,045,600. That is just little over a half of what would be necessary to accommodate all the people who claim to go to church weekly.
...I know that if it were part of God's plan for me to stop viciously condemning others based solely on their sexual preference, He would have seen fit - in His infinite wisdom and all - to have given me the tiniest bit of human empathy necessary to do so.
and
Compassion, tolerance, understanding, basic decency, the ability to put myself in another person's position: God could have endowed me with any of those traits and yet - here is the crucial part - He didn't. Why? Because the Creator of the Universe wants me to demonize homosexuals in an effort to strip them of their fundamental human rights.
it was obvious that there was a distinctive way that we were being treated because of the shared identification. There were hateful glances, exaggerated perceptions, waxing surveillance by security, and anxious but strong ‘amens’ accompanying a lecture on “The Ultimate Proof of Creation” by Dr. Jason Lisle.
I am confident that some do indeed feel threatened by gay marriage (or even the existence of GLBT individuals), but I suspect that most are motivated by a fear of tolerance and what it might do to the intolerant beliefs they have embraced.
A Muslim member of the French Government has attacked the head-to-toe Islamic dress as a prison, applauding a court decision to deny citizenship to a Moroccan woman who wore it.
She lives virtually as a recluse, disconnected from French society. She has no concept of laïcité [the principle of the secular State] nor the right to vote. She lives in total subservience to the men in her family
It won’t be wrong if somebody studies Islam, but they need guided study, because somebody needs to go along and point out the incredible inconsistencies in that book.
Many people who are Muslim don’t know what the Koran says. And when you begin to tell them, they say, “Well, I don’t believe that.” And you say, “Well, it’s in your sacred book. It’s supposed to be holy words.”
I have recently started getting email messages from the American Family Association using the email address I gave to you.
I would never have given your company my email address if I had any idea that you would pass it along, much less if I knew you would pass it along to such reprehensible groups as the AFA. And I know it was your company that gave it to them since I used a unique email when I registered.
If this is the kind of hate group your company chooses to associate with, that is your business.
I no longer plan shop at Hallmark or hallmark.com, and I will do what I can to tell others about the groups your company associates with. I will do what I can to ensure that no one I know does business with you.
