3. it should have read. "Bush is the Antichrist"...................nt

[ElementaryPenguin]

5. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BeHereNow]

8. YES!!!

Finally someone tells it like it IS.
Bush and his rabid pack of corporate
evangelical wolves do indeed act in the spirit
of the anti-christ. Meaning their actions
are AGAINST, not examples of the teachings
of Christ. Print and pass to your fundie relatives.
It's the Christian thing to do.
My I suggest we start referring to Bush as
NERO?

10. great article... some snips ->

"He (author Bruce Bawer) notes acidly that the movement got its biggest boost in reaction not to the Supreme Court's 1963 school-prayer ban but to the Carter-era IRS crackdown on segregated Christian schools. "The Religious Right didn't grow out of a love of God and one's neighbor—it grew out of racism, pure and simple."

"Bush is one of the key figures leading the church away from Jesus," says Christian author Bob Miller... Miller classifies Bush Christians as modern Pharisees—the allegedly proud, rigid, legalistic hypocrites John the Baptist called "a generation of vipers." "The worst condemnation that Jesus has for anybody, I mean the worst, is for Pharisees," says Miller. "If you asked Jerry Falwell who the Pharisees are in our society, they can't point anybody out."

"His (Rev. Rich Lang of Seattle) sermon "George Bush and the Rise of Christian Fascism" (posted like Luther's theses on the church Web site, www.tumseattle.org) rails that "the power and seduction of this administration emerges from its diabolical manipulation of Christian rhetoric . . .  the mirror opposite of what Jesus embodied. It is, indeed, the materialization of the spirit of Antichrist: a perversion of Christian faith and practice."

" The most popular story today was concocted by an English law-student-turned-self-taught-theologian named John Nelson Darby in the 1840s, and popularized by a Kansas City lawyer named C.I. Scofield with his best-selling 1909 Scofield Reference Bible.... But Darby invented the notion that the Rapture happens first. Exeunt Christians. Enter the Beast/Antichrist, who perpetrates a hellish seven-year Great Tribulation. Then Christ returns, kicks Beast butt, and reigns for 1,000 years—the Millennium. Fifty-one percent of Americans voted for Bush; 59 percent believe Revelation will come true. Without one scrap of scriptural evidence, almost one-quarter of Americans believe Revelation predicted 9/11."

[Pathwalker]

12. WOW! Priceless.

I don't even believe in that apocalyptical crap, but if there was anyone who fit the Biblical descripton of the Anti-Christ, it's Bush.

[Vidar]

So it's come to this: I'm the fluffy homo who thinks everybody's gay. I knew it would happen sooner or later; you can only watch The Wizard of Oz so many times before you start claiming that all the colorless drones around you are actually fabulously Technicolored characters out to supply you with great shoes and show you a good time in the city. I might as well settle down with a bunch of cats, don a fuzzy sweater, and order some fruity cocktail at the local cabaret lounge 'cause it's all over for me socially. No one wants to hang with the guy who swears something is going on between Clark Kent and Lex Luthor on Smallville. Readers have only just recently calmed down about my assertion that those Lord of the Rings hobbits really took the fellowship bit to heart. Now it's the Christmas season, and all I'm bursting to do is "out" that faggoty Rudolph.

Don't pretend the allegation surprises you. The animated puppet special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer celebrates its 40th anniversary this month, and you're a damn liar if you tell me you haven't spent at least 20 of those years secretly acknowledging that Rudy was a little light in the hooves. "Why am I such a misfit?" Rudolph sings mournfully, "Why don't I fit in?" It's become hip to joke about the proclivities of his pal, Hermey, the mincing elf who'd rather be a dentist, but no one dares touch Rudolph, either because they're distracted by his friendship with that fag hag fawn Clarice or, more likely, because it's sacrilege to note that one of the most beloved characters of a Christian holiday is an iconic flamer. I mean, really—that nose is on fire.
