Elections Tuesday

[Allan from Fallbrook]

Brian: Cal Thomas? Really? You’re going with Cal Thomas? And, you’re representing that Cal Thomas speaks for the ENTIRE Right? Wow. Talk about broad brush.

How about Michelle Malkin? Does she speak for me, too? Ann Coulter?

This is exactly what I mean about indoctrination and propaganda. If I’m a conservative, then I must certainly be listening to Rush and Hannity and Beck everyday, right? WRONG.

I don’t watch Fox News. Nor do I watch CNN or MSNBC for that matter (since, in truth, Olberman is as vile as Beck).

I don’t listen to Rush. I never have and I never will. Nor do I listen to Beck, whom I consider something out of a Sinclair Lewis novel, circa 1935.

The problem you have, Brian, is an unwillingness to accept that there are thinking conservatives out there. You’re also unable to admit that Obama and the hard left wing of the Democratic Party are capable of error. When confronted with the Administration’s various missteps and bungles, you throw out excuses or blame the Bush Administration.

This is called demagoguery and its intellectually dishonest, to say the least. You can put your hope in Obama, or the Easter Bunny, for that matter. Its your business. But, don’t try to sell “hope” and “change” when being pushed by an administration that’s filled with sneering, tin-eared, ham-handed rhetoricians who have all lost touch with their own country (the “Kansans”).

To argue that “hope” (as sold by Obama) is bringing “peace” to millions in the world, is to willfully close one’s eyes to the realities. If you’re going to push your intellect, USE it. Start by being honest with yourself and see facts, not opinions or talking points. Admit to your own bigotry and biases, especially against people of faith (after all, you have your own religion, its called Leftism). Realize that History (the one with the capital H) is replete with lessons and failing to learn them, means we get them again and again.

Here’s the Pigg thread that eventually trolled me into finally joining.

Frankly, I was shocked that even 8 out of 92 respondents were firm believers in creationism given the fact based analytical nature of Pigg posters. I thought the results would be more like 1 out of 92. No doubt the numbers will be higher applied to the whole country as areas like the bible belt weigh in. I suspect the number of bible thumpers are more than one thinks, some blatant while the silent majority stay polite and measured.

It is true there are lot’s of highly educated successful professionals that attend church on a regular basis. I see and socialize with them when I attend, and I attend primarily for the pragmatic sermons which helps one to live a positive and productive life. While most churchgoers would agree dinosaurs did not live 9000 years ago, most if not all will say Jesus is the true Son of God inferring a supernatural element. I’ve always wondered how many self proclaimed, western educated Christians truly believe this deep down inside. It’s one thing to claim in the belief of an animating force a la Deism, it’s quite another to presume God decided to single out this insignificant planet among the billions in this galaxy to have his presence known. Before anyone tries to save me from eternal damnation, know that I endured 12 years of Catholic school.

To this day, I personally still don’t know what to believe. I do know that in 1000 years when we make contact with an advanced life form, we need to keep the religious representatives out of the welcome committee. Telling our new friends to accept Jesus as their savior might result in a Ray Gun shoved up our worthless asses.
