Is it name calling or just the terms of the day?

I have an idea for a series. For every city or region or business that Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell or other loonie fundies condemned for whatever transgression committed (e.g. rejecting ID in Dover, PA, or Disney having Gay Day), check to see if any terrible calamities have befalled these places since. For example, with Disney, has the companies profits increased since Gay Day was started, has Disneyland’s attendance gone up and done and so forth?

Regarding Igor’s “description” of the Pharisees:

“The Pharisees lorded their brand of paralyzing legalism in the guise of judgemental spirituality on the Jewish people. They loved and honored themselves more than God. They had no mercy, love, or patience for the poor or “sinners”. ”

Now where in the word would they get some idea like that?! Hmmm…I know! Sounds pretty much like the Jewish God to me.

Hinduism was covered in installment XVIII. Now, some of the more popular religions (aka “myths” — e.g. Norse and Greek/Roman) might have been skipped over. They offer up as many examples as today’s major religions, but their multiple gods had much more human qualities, and thus the contrast between “GOD” and dick wouldn’t be so great.

Of course Yam isn’t running out of material. We all know you have a better chance of opening the bible to a random page and finding dickery than inspiration. It’s just that some of it can start to get repetitive. I’m sure he’s itching to demonstrate god’s idiocy (or impotence, or myopia, or etc, etc.).

It’s your world, Yam, do you.

Reluctant Atheist: I was going to bring up the Kepha point. Good job.
