More Utterances from the Whacko Right

Gladiators killed themselves -

It was in Roman Times

People watched in hypnotic gaze

As hearts and Minds went Blind


Many on the right honestly do like to "show off God" to people, like walking a dog at a dog show on a choker chain.

I guess it used t be the dream of every set of parents to have a respectable, wholesome son, even if he married a "Stepford Wife' with only a quarter the IQ of his mother.  But she would faithfully live out her role and be content doing those feminine, womanly things like having children, and otherwise being morally emaculate as well as an emaculate house keeper.  She she would do all those feminine things like meet with her "woman's club" and play cards and gossip and issue phoney complements about each other's sense of fashion.  In a sense this appeals to an America that never quite really was since women had been working as "Rosey the riviter" and often the women had college degrees of their own even back then in some respectable area such as socialogy.  I remember this great aunt on Leave it to Beaver who would visit from time to time and the Beaver would always dread her visits because his mother was scared spitless she would "do something to embarras her" and the aunt was kind of a snob, and I'm not even sure whether June was comfortable around her.  And she would say stuff like "It's always to see such an Eastern house this far west".  (the last time I checked Universal City was about as far "west" as they come.  Anyhow all of the churches would be filled with "respectable" people in their congragations.  They have an adage that "The most segregated hour of the week is nine thirty on Sunday morning".

Well unfortunately I have bad news for you all.  It isn't 1962 any more.  Now instead of joining the booster club or the Cadets at school, Junior is likely being recruited by the various school gangs.  One woman today on the radio was saying she had to "learn to overcome her fear of young Black teenage boys".  What was she afraid of?  That they would grow fangs and suck her blood?  We learn from Randy Rhodes that there are even stranger and more whacked out sermons than have been related so far.  This one preacher was in this emotional froth like Will Horton today on the show.  He could hardly contain it.  He was talking about parents with a four year old son who put on a dress.  And the preacher said "Rather than squash this homosexual impulse like a cockroach, the parents got out their camera and took pictures of the boy in the dress and uploaded the photos to the internet.  OK to me that too is a little insane.  The preacher went on to say "You should have ripped that dress off that boy and told him to go out and did a hole in the yard and all that other stuff that Boys do".  I guess that was the same preacher who went on to talk about "If you have a limp wristed son".   Now there is another bizzaro organization called BOND.  And this stands for Brotherhood Organization of the New Destiny.  Sounds a little Nazi to me.  Anyhow there are some big names on this corporation's board of directors including Dennis Prager, whose moral stances in the past have been as spotty as Newt Gingriches but then birds of a feather- - and all.  Then you have Sean Hannity, whom you all know and dread, and there is Dr. Walter Williams, the guy who is "Black by Popular Demand".  He is fifteen years my senior and talks of attending Junior High when corporal punishment was a lot more "liberally' carried out than it is today.  Anyhow this group has a Reverend named Jesse Peterson.  Last Sunday he said that the downfall of America can be traced back to when man gave woman the vote.  And that the Founding Fathers were wise in not giving women the vote because they knew if they ever did they'd vote for such things like liberalizing abortions and leagalizing gay marriages.  And this guy just rambled on and on about how America is being destroyed today.  Now apparently Katholeen Sabelius, a Catholic, is being attacked because she is the head of Obama's Health and Human Services department.  They want to bring back abortion as an issue just like I talked about this morning.  And apparently people on FOX television took offense to some Vagina Manger skit.  Personally if I didn't like what a show had on I just wouldn't watch it any more.  But the Ned Flanders of the world spend all this time trolling the cable networks for shows that are offensive and writing down all the naughty words, and then go running to their city councilmen or congressman or the FCC or something.

I saw guns and sharp swords

In the hands of young children

I met a young man who was wounded in Love

I met another young man who was wounded in Hatred

I heard the roar of a wave

That could drown the whole World

And you know don't you that often society's downfall or the downfall of any thing or person or istitution by Failure to Answer certain questions that nobody ever dared ask, but should have.  We've got one of these for you in a moment.  I was reading Revelation 12 about the virgin woman who was pregnent and gave birth to a son.  And she was circled by the twelve stars and the sun and moon and all of that.  And the surpent was crouched ready to "snatch the child away as soon as the woman had given birth.  But the book goes on "But then the child was snatched away to the throne of God.  This is the individual who is destined to Rule the Nations with a Rod of Iron".  So much for peace and love.  In Luke Jesus is prophisyed over by that old dude who said "Truely this child shall grow up to be the Deliveror of Israel".  Here is the question.  Name me ONE time in the ENTIRE Bible, you've got the whole book to pick on from the early chapters of Genisis onward. Name me ONE time where Satan's plans were ever thwarted or Satan was ever "caught off guard" or "caught by surprise" or "was disappointed at he outcome" and had to "modify his well spun plans".  You won't find any.  How then can you call it strange of me to say that Satan and God are one and the same, as people like me say that God is, because that's what being a Determinist Deist is all about.  What struck me is that the evangelical writings go on and on about how Satan wanted Jesus dead and crucified.  Really?  Name me one quote in the whole Bible where Satan is quoted as saying this- - even remotely.  As I read the scripture I see absolutely no frustration or disgust with the fact that Jesus apparently rose from the dead.  I see Satan is a creature not one bit weaker AFTER the Resurrection than before.  Satan "Has posession of Planet Earth" or to use the shorthand is "Lord of this World' both before and after Jesus' resurrection.  Unlike smallpox, satanic posessions are not a thing of the past.  OK now that I've messed up the dinner of all you respectable Irish Bostonians - - try and enjoy your meal.

I heard ten thousand people whispering -

And Nobody Listening - - -

Let me say just another word about Will Horton.  Sometimes you can fully agree with someone's speech and only wish you yourself had the balls to say it, but will criticize them publicly because it's not "shiek" to be a fan of theirs.  We have the case of Will Horton today.  I agree with every word he said, and they were words that very much NEEDED to be said by SOMEBODY.  This whole "emperors new clothes" thing can go on only so long.  Samantha Brady IS a hypocrite of the first magnitude.  She speaks of her sister Carrie and "Austin says- - Samantha and Carrie are sisters and they love each other".  Since when?  Name me ONE good thing Samantha has ever said about Carrie in the nineteen years she's been on the show.  When has Samantha ever even spoken a civil word to her. And for the most part Carrie just "takes it" in good stride.  And Samantha has repeatedly reviled her mother to her face, a sin if you want to get Biblical is one meriting Death.  She hasn't "forgiven" her mother for her "Affair" with John Black, whom she had been previously married to for years, and who would be married to again for nearly twenty years hence.  But Samantha can't let it go.  Will lost a grandmother.  He has standing to mourn.  And then we come to her most beloved husband - - Raphael, the "Love of her life".  Yeah,until she cheated on him with their worse enemy and then lied and hid the thing.  Not only that but Samantha engaged in what I call "preemptive guilt trip diversions" to cover up the facts.  And as for Stephano- - he has no friends left.  He drove his wife and son away, and his daughter thinks he's a hopeless moral reprobate.  And now he's got the whole town after him because John Black decided that "Stephano deserved to be taught a lesson" and Shane Donavin and Roman Brady agreed with him.  As to Brady Black's desire to put a bullet through his brain.  On this show that must be a thought as recurrent as sex that you have every fifteen minutes- - and I bet everyone had thought it.  As the Italian proverb says "After all is said and done, a lot more is sand than done".  The only friends Stephano seems to have left at all are his own hired henchmen, like Gene Scott or somebody, and he even yells at those people.  Evil always collapses in on itself.  (Selah)

A disturbing thought just hit me, Steve.  This is the Real Navy; it isn't the Cain, with Captain Queegs running lose.  They'll never believe our story!

Postscript:  The whole Tea Party debates specticle took place last fall.  But how will it be in a "Real Debate" where the crowd isn't a howeling blood-thirsty pack of dogs, the usual bigoted, ignorant tea party bunch.

What kind of results indeed, will you have when people attending are told to keep silent

Or like a Jury in a Court Trial-  when told not to form any decisions till all has been Spoken?
