Best Church of God -- metaprotest.

The Best Church of God discovered something terrible in Chicago last weekend. Apparently there is a fully-functioning satirical church that performs a service MOCKING fundamentalist christianity every single weekend. Well we at the BCOG think there is NOTHING funny about religion.

Huffington Post: I love you, you've been a good source of information, but you need to chillax. If Hillary is a dead horse, you need to stop kicking. Remember when you thought it made Democrats look bad to ball-tap each other? Now you're scaring me.

Here's something I wrote a bit ago that fits nicely.

The Good News...

The Pope came to America last week, and concluded his trip with a Sunday Mass given to a packed crowed at New York’s Yankees Stadium. The Pope said he wanted to conduct mass on the diamond, because unlike many American priests, he had never been to second base.


The 400 children of a polygamist Mormon sect have been removed from their Texas compound and are undergoing paternity tests to determine the sect’s intertwined family tree. The polygamy and incest that took place in the compound have been repudiated by the Texas authorities, mainstream mormons, and anyone who did not make it to page two of the bible.


This week is the Jewish celebration of Passover, where people of conservative jewish faith celebrate their escape from Egypt by eating only unleavened bread and kosher foods. People of reform jewish faith celebrate their escape by getting their bagels to go.

Praise Jesus


A wisconsin family chose to heal their daughter from her Type-1 Diabetes using the power of prayer, rather than the power of western medicine. Because as we all know, Jesus is the only qualified doctor.

A few IED's along Memory Lane.

I remember when our war was young.

President Bush's Address to the Nation: March 19, 2003

My fellow citizens, at this hour American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people and to defend the world from grave danger. On my orders, coalition forces have begun striking selected targets of military importance to undermine Saddam Hussein's ability to wage war.

These are opening stages of what will be a broad and concerted campaign. More than 35 countries are giving crucial support, from the use of naval and air bases to help with intelligence and logistics, to the deployment of combat units. Every nation in this coalition has chosen to bear the duty and share the honor of serving in our common defense.

To all the men and women of the United States Armed Forces now in the Middle East, the peace of a troubled world and the hopes of an oppressed people now depend on you. That trust is well placed. The enemies you confront will come to know your skill and bravery. The people you liberate will witness the honorable and decent spirit of the American military.

Apparently, Gays are Literally the Bomb.

Oklahoma, the state with possibly the gayest musical theatre namesake in the whole Union, just revealed itself as decidedly not OK with gayness.

An Oklahoma representative, not realizing she was being recorded while she spoke at a conservative function, outlined her views of homosexuality in this great nation.

Sing it, Oklahoma Congressional Representative Sally Kern!

“The homosexual agenda is destroying this nation, okay? It’s just a fact. Not everybody’s lifestyle is equal, just like not all religions are. You know, the very fact that I’m talking to you like this here today puts me in jeopardy, okay? And I’m not anti- and I’m not gay bashing, but according to God’s Word, that is not the right kind of lifestyle. It has deadly consequences for those people involved in it. They have more suicides, they’re more discouraged, there’s more illness, their lifespans are shorter, you know, it’s not a lifestyle that is good for this nation.

“As a matter of fact, studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than, you know, a few decades. So it’s the death knell for this country. I honestly think it’s the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam, which I think is a big threat.
Because what’s happening now, they’re going after, in schools, two year olds! Do you know what they’re trying to get into early childhood education? They want to give our young children into the government schools so they can indoctrinate them. I taught school for close to twenty years. And we’re not teaching facts and knowledge anymore folks. We’re teaching indoctrination, okay? And their going after our young children, as young as two years of age to try to teach them that the homosexual lifestyle is an acceptable lifestyle.

“You know, gays are infiltrating city councils. Did you know, Eureka Springs, anybody been there, the passion play? Okay, have you heard that the city council of Eureka Springs is now controlled by gays? Okay? There are some others, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Takoma, Maryland; Kennsington, Maryland; in Vermont, Oregon, West Palm Beach, Florida; in a lot of other places in Florida. What’s happening? They are winning elections.

“One of the things I deal with in our legislature, I tried to introduce a bill last year that would notify parents, schools had to let parents know what clubs their students were involved in. And the reason I did that bill primarily was this: We have the gay-straight alliance coming into our schools. Kids are getting involved in these groups, their lives are being ruined, their parents don’t know about it. So I introduced a bill, you have to notify all clubs and things.

“And one of my colleagues said you know, we don’t have a gay problem in my county, that’s why I voted against that bill. Well you know what? To me that is so dumb. If you got cancer or something in your little toe, do you say, you know, I’m just going to forget about it because the rest of me’s fine. It spreads, okay? And this stuff, it’s deadly and it’s spreading and it will destroy our young people, it will destroy this nation.”

I can't wait until Chris Matthews is seen as the William Jennings Bryant of his generation -- that is, William Jennings Bryant without the class or elocution.

Speaking of rhetoric applied to outmoded ideas, here is a piece I wrote about the creative use of rhetoric in the 2008 election. Thanks to Flak Magazine.

Baby, It's E. coli Outside.

Nobel Prize winning scientist Joshua Lederberg died last week. Lederberg is responsible for advances in the study of bacterial reproduction. Most notably, Lederberg discovered that single-celled organisms, or archaea, could engage in sexual reproduction.

Lederberg died peacefully in his sleep, it seems. He was found in his bed, clutching an issue of this renowned molecular genetics periodical:

Republicarnage!

Last weekend, senator John McCain won the presidential primary in South Carolina, making him the new frontrunner for republican nomination. That is all well and good, but let me ask you this: how would you feel if I told you that John McCain had an illegitimate Mexican baby with an illegal immigrant housekeeper in Arizona? Who is gay?


In Nevada, Mitt Romney Upset John McCain, and Mike Huckabee, and squarely beat Ron Paul and Rudolph Giuliani. Therefore, In order of effectiveness: Mittmentum, McMentum, HuckMentum, FredMentum, and, 9/11.


Democrazy!


In last weekend’s democratic primary, Senator Hillary Clinton won the state of Nevada, beating Senator Barack Obama by 6 points. And there’s this guy named John Edwards, who also ran.


And now, a report on the democratic primary race:
Barack and Saw Mill went up the Hill to fetch votes in Nevada. Barack the brown was six points down and Saw Mill came tumbling-to-only-six-percent-of-the-vote-even-though-Nevada-is-a-strongly-Labor-State-which-essentially-kills-his-campaign. After.

There's a new Musharraf in town.

That's right, partners. Pakistani President, General Pervez Musharraf, will now be known, henceforth, as Pakistani President, Pervez Musharraf. He relinquished control of Pakistan's Army, which means he will have to live out his public life with the shame of being only the President of Pakistan.

In his place, Musharraf appointed Ashfaq Kiyani, who was head of Pakistan's intelligence bureau. According to analysts, Kiyani is nothing but Musharraf light: same great autocratic rule, only half the controversy!

Politics in the Middle East can be complicated. And so, commentator Gretchen Morris brings you another installment of her popular segment: What in the World: Pakistan!

A Genocide by any other name...

The Turkish massacre of over 1 million Armenians. Congress is currently working on a bill that would label this 1919 killing a Genocide. You may wonder, why are we working on the nomenclature of atrocities gone-by when there are attrocities of today and tomorrow to work on? The answer is simple: Tiny, little victories. Teeny Tinies.
