10 Things Christians and Atheists Can (And Must) Agree On

I mean, that thing I said I said earlier about not celebrating the death of somebody you disagree with… that still counts for a bitter, uncompromising old fart like Falwell, right? We’re civilized people. We can celebrate him changing his mind, or even celebrate him being made to look like a fool in public.

But you start cheering his death, you’ve walked away from the one single baseline every remotely moral person has ever agreed on: the value of human life. And I know we all agree on that, because we can all think of people we could’ve otherwise stabbed and gotten away with it.

And sure, there may be a few of my atheists out there saying that what Falwell was spewing was so hateful, that it surely inspired some murders (of homosexuals or abortion doctors or whatever) and that he thus deserved death on those grounds.

But you don’t want to live by that rule; you’ll wind up in a world where gangsta rappers and video game programmers and political commentators and novelists are considered worthy of death just because some fans claimed their work inspired them to kill. That’s the sort of thing a nut from the other side would say. Right?

FK – I have no problem cheering the ‘death’ of some creature that would gladly send its black-suited Nazis to my door because I didn’t obey one of its evil laws.

This article makes some good points but there will always be ‘extremists’ in all groups. Unfortunately most sheeple see anyone who’s not very similar to them as extremist because most don’t put any real effort into understanding the world they inhabit.

The very basis of the hell story is the human desire to see those who are different or who may have wronged someone punished. But don’t worry, these cultural shifts cycle in and out:

With Ice Growing at Both Poles, Global Warming Theories Implode

Despite having predicted less ice — not more — as a result of alleged man-made global warming, some alarmists have comically tried to blame the record ice on “global warming.” Indeed, in a bizarre attempt to explain away the latest findings, Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems CRC boss Tony Worby tried to blame “the depletion of ozone” and the “warming atmosphere” for the phenomenal growth in sea ice — contradicting previous forecasts by warming alarmists, who warned that ice would decrease as temperatures rose along with CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere.

The biggest problem with Worby’s claim, however, is the fact that the undisputed global temperature record shows there has been no warming for about 18 years and counting — contradicting every “climate model” cited by the UN to justify planetary alarmism, carbon taxes, energy rationing, massive wealth transfers, and more. Dozens of excuses have been concocted for what alarmists refer to as the “pause” in warming, as many as 50 by some estimates. The Obama administration’s preferred explanation, for which there is no observable evidence, is often ridiculed by critics as the “Theory of the Ocean Ate My Global Warming.”

However, scientists and experts not funded by governments to promote the alarmist narrative say the observable evidence simply shows the man-made CO2 theories and “climate models” pushed by the “climate” industry are incorrect. More than a few climate experts and scientists have even warned that a prolonged period of global cooling is approaching quickly. The consequences could potentially be devastating — especially if warming alarmists succeed in quashing energy and food production under the guise of stopping non-existent “warming.”

FK – I know, send all the eco-commies down there with solar powered blow dryers to see what they can do about it.

FK – Yeah, let’s ‘reconsider’ an evil system that persecutes people and ruins their lives just because they choose to be able to defend themselves.

Dear ‘No Rights that aren’t Allowed’ group: The ‘bad guys’ need to be in prison. If they aren’t there’s a problem isn’t there? If someone is walking the street they’ve never been convicted of a crime or they have been judged ‘safe’ or ‘trustworthy’ to return to society. If they were non-violent offenders their most basic right should never be brought into question.

Does Carrying a Gun to Synagogue Make It Safer or More Dangerous?

It is easier to get a concealed carry permit in the 39 states known as “shall issue” states, where authorities must issue a concealed carry license unless there is a demonstrable reason not to do so. Such states include Florida, Texas and Illinois. In “may issue” states, such as California and New York, concealed carry licenses are much harder to obtain because they are issued at the discretion of local authorities.

Some rabbis approve of congregants coming armed to synagogue, though they are a minority.

Rabbi Stuart Federow, who leads Shaar Hashalom, a Conservative congregation in Houston, said that because synagogues are a prime terrorist target, he is thankful for congregants who arm themselves. He said that dozens of people of all ages show up to an informal Jewish group called Glocks & Bagels, which meets infrequently at a local firing range.

FK – Most ‘Jews‘ are secular Marxists. Glad there are a few smart ones.

Missouri expands firearm legislation to schools

The new law allows any person with a valid concealed carry permit to openly carry their firearm of choice wherever they please, including in areas where firearms are publicly banned, such as schools.  This law also supersedes any city or town ordinances which ban the carrying of firearms in public.

School boards in Missouri already allow for teachers to carry concealed firearms on campuses, but the new law would require the Department of Public Safety to set up training courses and guidelines to train specific teachers or administrators for the new role of “school protection officer.”

FK – Now we need to get martial arts and weapons training for the kids in the schools. Let the “Liberal”(commie) trash whine over that.

Who Killed Joan Rivers?

That most of Joan’s peers did NOT crucify her for her statement that Michelle Obama is a transvestite makes me tend to believe that they all know Joan told the truth and just didn’t have the courage to say it. Plus, she was JOAN RIVERS: the quintessential icon of the entertainment left.

My question is, what if Joan Rivers actually told the TRUTH about the Obamas? What if it’s true that Barack and Michelle (Or is the name Michael?) really are homosexuals, that Michelle really is a man, and that they have pulled off the greatest political hoax in the history of the United States? The timing of Rivers’ death is an incredible coincidence, if it’s not true. That is for sure.

Rivers went in for what would be regarded as simple out-patient surgery. How many millions of Americans have gone through this, and similar surgeries, without a hitch? Granted, she was 81. But she was a healthy 81. Granted, fluke deaths do sometimes happen during “simple” surgeries. But what a coincidence! The most iconic female comedian in the entire country accuses Michelle Obama of being a transvestite, and less than two months later, she is dead.

FK – I think she was likely killed by her own vanity, but then I wasn’t there…

FK – I watched this on Netflix. Hard to make heads or tails of it except to say it’s business as usual per the government. The UFO movement, like religion, is going to have its share of hucksters, fakers and liars. Well, probably no where near as bad as ‘religion,’ whatever version, sub-version or subversion.

“For it is a habit of mankind to entrust to careless hope what they long for, and to use sovereign reason to thrust aside what they do not fancy.” – Thucydides, from his History of the Peloponnesian War p. 276  Book 4 

FK – The phenomena is real. Those who say they ‘know’ what it is are possibly lying or providing their own simple explanation that alleviates them from having to actually think about the universe we exist within.
