Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

The Problem Isn't Religion

And another thing God told me...

It's religious people.

There are people in this country who refuse to believe anything that isn't in the Bible.  The word for these people is not "religious" it is "idiots".  These are the zealots and narrow minded prejudicial God botherers who refuse to acknowledge any advancements in human knowledge that weren't accounted for 2000 years ago.

I would love for God to appear in the heavens, wrap his arm around Charles Darwin and say, "My homey here is right, and the rest of you people... well, I clearly erred in giving you brains, since your never use them."

That would be an awesome God.

Meanwhile, the organized crime organization known as the Church of Rome has a problem in Ireland where it turns out the head prelate for Ireland knew about allegations against a sexually predatory priest and did nothing.

Any time you close yourself off to scrutiny and questioning, you're going to wind up seriously far astray.
