Jason just metaphorically stood in front of a 20mm cannon (gatling gun) and remotely triggered it. (gasping for air) Talk about spotlighting the accuracy of Mickey's comment! Original post: is showing a bunch of Christians for the oportunists they are. The first thing Dave Silverman of American Atheists did was thank the host for having him on the show. The second thing he did was ask people to send money to help the Tsunami victims because that is the kind of thing secular humanists do. The Christians barely mentioned the victims. They were too busy trying to prove that they worshipped a 'god of love'. The one Jewish guy (a rabbi) insisted that people had a right to be angry with their god and to ask questions when bad things happen. The Christians couldn't accept this. They were too busy hawking their Bible and its horrible 'God'. (I think this is what Silverman meant when he said they were using this opportunity to hawk their book, not that they were trying to hawk books they'd written themselves.) Tim LaHaye surprised me when he said that the tsunami was a natural disaster, but kept harping on people being ready for the end of the world. He didn't use those words, but it was obvious what he meant. Billy Graham's daughter has a permanant phony smile that really bugged me after awhile. She was the worst of them all, as far as I'm concerned. She did nothing but proselytize. Disgusting woman. David wasn't given a chance to make a final statement. Neither was the rabbi. /end -- Contempt of Congress meter reading-offscale. Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme Court who will ensure church and state are joined at the hip like clergy and altar boys. America 1776-Jan 2001 RIP
