On second thought, bless ME!

Posted in atheism, atheists, political correctness, separation of church and state with tags , , , on September 29, 2011 by devilbloggger

Gesundheit!

Did you know that Wikipedia has an entry for “Responses to sneezing”?  Yes, my friends, nothing escapes those Wikipedians, who tell us that: “In English-speaking countries, the common verbal response to another person’s sneeze is “(God) bless you” or in the United States the much less common “Gesundheit” (from German, meaning “health”).”

God bless you???

Where does that come from?

What?

Wikipedia will tell us that also?

Well, what do you know?  Sure enough, look here–Wikipedia’s entry for “Bless you”.  Here’s the one I like:

Another version says that people used to believe that your soul can be thrown from your body when you sneeze, that sneezing otherwise opened your body to invasion by the Devil or evil spirits, or that sneezing was your body’s effort to force out an invading evil spirit. Thus, “bless you” or “God bless you” is used as a sort of shield against evil.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Now, I must admit, that while all this is based on silliness, the practice nevertheless disturbs me.  Maybe I’m thin-skinned.  Call it professional pride or what you will, but really, why does God have to be mentioned every time someone sneezes?

Well, my servants, thankfully one of my faithful on earth is doing something about it.  Yes, you should read the short ABC news story entitled, “Teacher penalizes students for saying ‘bless you.’”

Ha ha ha ha ha.

No kidding.  I knew it would finally happen — someone (a public school teacher, of course) takes God-hating, religion-despising, atheistic buffoonery to an absurd new level that only politically correct, secularistic, unholier-than-thou Americans and I can fully appreciate.

Now, the best part.  The teacher’s name (I’m not making this up) is Steve Cuckovich.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Sorry, I know he’s one of mine.  But people with names like Cuckovich and Weiner sometimes express such ironic public displays of onomatopoeic depravity that it even makes me laugh.

But I think my faithful Cuckoovich hates God so much that, according to the news story, ”He’s even lowering students’ grades if they say “bless you” after someone sneezes.”

Yes, my good servants.  This fellow servant knocked 25 points off students’ grades for saying the phrase in class.  Now that’s being a doer of my will, and not a hearer only.  When called on this bizarrely wonderful practice, he decided to stop lowering grades, but he “will just find another way to discipline students for saying “bless you” in class.”

You go, Cuckoo, my man.

Now, like any good mind-darkened servant of mine, Cuckoo-man says the policy “has nothing to do with religion,” and then goes on to say that it is about religion:

“When you sneezed in the old days, they thought you were dispelling evil spirits out of your body,” Cuckovich said. “So they were saying, ‘god bless you’ for getting rid of evil spirits. But today, I said what you’re doing doesn’t really make any sense anymore.”

Not about religion, but all about God.  Now that’s logic I can revel in.

You see, my servants, how I work?  Let me make it clear.  Everyone on earth will have their mind conformed to the ways of the world, i.e., my ways, or to the ways of God.  It’s that simple.  Hardly anyone applies themselves to be not conformed to this world, and many have completely yielded themselves over to be conformed to the world.  Very few are transformed by the renewing of their mind.

To those with a mind conformed to this world hatred of God seethes in their very being.  Most keep it well hidden, but some are so exercised in their animosity to all things Godly that they react irrationally to the most benign of common courtesies.

And in America, the Land of the Free Atheist and home of the Brave God Haters, it is open season on all things Godly.  So people like Mr. Cuckovich can do with impunity what in any other time would be labeled outlandish .  After all, who is going to call him on his atheistically religious fanaticism?

Anyone? Anyone?

I didn’t think so.

Mr. Cuckoovich, I admire you.  I hope you don’t mind if I . . . tell you . . . personally . . . hang on . . .

Ahhh-CHOO!

BLESS YOU, Mr. Cuckoovich!!

(I did that just to make Mr. Cuckoovich go more cuckoo.)

It’s a Riot! My Generation Coming of Age

Posted in common sense, democracy, freedom, God, liberals, political correctness, progressives, secularism, toleration, worldview with tags , , on August 10, 2011 by devilbloggger

Riots.

Hey, do you know what you get when you raise a child with no noble expectations, no responsibilities, no moral bearings, and no truth about a God who matters in life?  You get what is called in today’s UK Mail a “feral child”.  Down here we call them “humans raised without knowledge of the true God.”

Yes, my servants, we are watching with delight down here as the world begins to reap what it sewed: irresponsible, dependent, lazy, conscienceless youth, raised to respect nothing and expect everything, except what they need.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

It’s a beautiful sight.

Max Hastings said it best in today’s UK MailOnline in an article entitled, “Years of liberal dogma have spawned a generation of amoral, uneducated, welfare dependent, brutalised youngsters.”

The title says it all. 

I couldn’t be more proud.

You see, my servants, let me impart some kingdom knowledge.   This is confidential, so keep it between you and me.  Mr. Hastings is exactly right; liberal dogma is my lie, and my lie is like candy–sweet to the mouth but it will make you sick.  Liberal policies always seem right, fair, and noble.  But in the end they produce, well, amoral, uneducated, welfare dependent, brutalized youngsters.

Yes, it’s a beautiful thing.  And it’s coming to a town near you.

You see, my servants, it is too late to stop the tidal wave of violence bearing down on Western societies.  At least two generations of people have been indoctrinated in liberal policies, meaning at least millions upon millions of people expect something for nothing and will use violence to protect the status quo.

It’s too late, UK. 

It’s too late, Europe.

It’s too late Central and South America.

And, my favorite, it’s too late America.

You believed my lies.  Only prayer and repentance to God can stop my agenda now, and Western societies are beyond such backward remedies.

Like I said, I couldn’t have said it any better than Mr. Hastings, so let’s look at some of his observations and see if you can see me in all this (I”ll help). 

Speaking specifically of my work in London over the last few days, he remarks:

The people who wrecked swathes of property, burned vehicles and terrorised communities have no moral compass to make them susceptible to guilt or shame.

(That’s me.)

They are illiterate and innumerate, beyond maybe some dexterity with computer games and BlackBerries.

(That’s me.)

They are essentially wild beasts. I use that phrase advisedly, because it seems appropriate to young people bereft of the discipline that might make them employable; of the conscience that distinguishes between right and wrong.

(That’s me.)

They respond only to instinctive animal impulses — to eat and drink, have sex, seize or destroy the accessible property of others.

(That’s me.)

Their behaviour on the streets resembled that of the polar bear which attacked a Norwegian tourist camp last week. They were doing what came naturally and, unlike the bear, no one even shot them for it.

(That’s me, except for the failure to shoot them.)

The depressing truth is that at the bottom of our society is a layer of young people with no skills, education, values or aspirations. They do not have what most of us would call ‘lives’: they simply exist.

(That’s me.)

The notions of doing a nine-to-five job, marrying and sticking with a wife and kids, taking up DIY or learning to read properly, are beyond their imaginations.

(That’s me.)

These kids are what they are because nobody makes them be anything  different or better.

(That’s me.)

From an early stage, feral children discover that they can bully fellow pupils at school, shout abuse at people in the streets, urinate outside pubs, hurl litter from car windows, play car radios at deafening volumes, and, indeed, commit casual assaults with only a negligible prospect of facing rebuke, far less retribution.

(That’s me.)

The breakdown of families, the pernicious promotion of single motherhood as a desirable state, the decline of domestic life so that even shared meals are a rarity, have all contributed importantly to the condition of the young underclass.

(That’s me.)

This has ultimately been sanctioned by Parliament, which refuses to accept, for instance, that children are more likely to prosper with two parents than with one, and that the dependency culture is a tragedy for those who receive something for nothing.

(That’s me.)

They have no code of values to dissuade them from behaving anti-socially or, indeed, criminally, and small chance of being punished if they do so.  They have no sense of responsibility for themselves, far less towards others, and look to no future beyond the next meal, sexual encounter or TV football game.

(That’s me.)

You get the idea.  Liberal ideas, as Mr. Hastings points out, makes victims of a “perverted ethos, which elevates personal freedom to an absolute, and denies the personal freedom to an absolute, and denies the underclass the discipline — tough love — which alone might enable some of its members to escape from the swamp of dependency in which they live.”

And best of all, Mr. Hastings, for all his insight, misses one key point: the proper solution.  Mr. Hastings says:

Only education — together with politicians, judges, policemen and teachers with the courage to force feral humans to obey rules the rest of us have accepted all our lives — can provide a way forward and a way out for these people.

But it’s not education, at least not the kind of education served up in the West these days, that will change the human heart.  And it’s not politicians, judges, policemen and teachers “forcing” feral humans to obey that will solve this problem. 

After all, isn’t that what we have today — policemen forcing feral humans to obey?

Can’t everyone see that the West is headed for life in a police state?

Yes, a police state can control the actions of feral humans.  But a police state can never change the heart of a feral human.  And until hearts are changed, no amount of “education” will help.

Well, I’ve probably said too much now.  Again, keep this confidential, my servants.  But know that absent a moral compass in the heart of a child, the child will make his or her own right and wrong.  Combine this amoral person with a generation of like persons, most of which enjoy the luxury of being a tax-funded freeloader on society, and you have the makings of a riot.

I hope the non-feral humans never find this out.

Keep it quiet, please?

Declaration of Dependence

Posted in freedom, liberty with tags , , on July 4, 2011 by devilbloggger

Independence.

Today my American servants celebrate Independence Day, my friends.  On this day in 1776 the early Americans who were subject to King George of England signed the Declaration of Independence.  Declaring in writing their right and duty to “throw off absolute despotism,” those Yankees did just that.

And they did it in style.

A style that had me very worried, my servants.  Why?  Because I saw clearly that the very underpinnings of the American experiment relied heavily on God and his principles on earth. 

And by “God” I don’t mean America’s present notion of God.  Those early Americans meant God, the real God, the living God, the God who is God by nature, self existing, eternal, transcendent, and to whom every human being must give account.

That God.

Blechhhh!

In the very first sentence of this Declaration, we read about the nature of people, and the “separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them.”

Nature’s God?  Is this really in an official United States of America document?  And penned by the same dude that first wrote “separation of church and state” in an unofficial letter to a friend?

Yes, my servants.  Now you know why I was worried.  A very public God illuminated the thinking in that document, and it got worse.  You know the next phrase, the second sentence of the Declaration which split open the very nether regions of Hell before ringing throughout eternity:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

What can I say?  Those early American rebels relied on an eternal truth.  A truth memorialized in writing; a writing setting out the basis for independence; and an independence that threatened my very existence in the New World.

What was I to do?  That first Fourth of July reminded me of a more eternal and permanent independence available to all. 

I knew that if men were free to hear the gospel they would hear of the one who is the way, the truth, and the life.

Life!

I knew that if men could hear truth the truth would set them free.

Liberty!

I knew that if men yielded to the voice of the only one who is truly and absolutely independent, that no one could steal their joy.

Pursuit of happiness!

My only option was to pervert independence, my servants.  I knew that I must make independence absolute in the eyes of men, so that they chaffed under absolute moral authority and accepted a false independence: independence from one perceived as an absolute despot–God.

Men rejected God as a moral despot, and in so doing traded true independence for a corrosive dependence that manifests as moral relativism; toleration in which every man does what is right in his own eyes.

Abortion is wrong?  Who says?

Homosexuality is wrong?  Who says?

Adultery is wrong?  Who says?

Stealing from another by letting the government take from the working to give to the idle is wrong?  Who says?

Denying God’s proper place in public discourse is wrong?  Who says?

Cursing God and using his name in vain is wrong?  Who says?

You get the idea, my servants.  And my plan worked perfectly.  My American servants have almost completely thrown off that easy yoke of God-honoring, authority-recognizing, publicly visible cultural discourse.

And instead they have taken another yoke.  And do you know whose it is?

Ha ha ha ha ha.

You got it!  Because almost everyone is necessarily under authority in morals and discourse.  And when you throw off the authority of God, you are left with the authority of men, which is to say, l’autorité de moi!

And my work is almost complete.  Rather than celebrate a right relationship with God, Americans today act embarrassed about God, treating him like a crazy uncle who is best ignored in private and never spoken of in public.

Imagine, if an American public official penned the Declaration of Independence today he or she would be sued by multiple of my servants for breaching that secularisticly sacred wall of separation of church and state.  God can no longer be mentioned in American public by any government official.

Go ahead, imagine!  (It’s easy if you try.)

The net result, my friends, is that the Americans are slowly sinking into a morass of dependence on a usurping authority, a false independence which manifests itself as an unhealthy dependence on government, a misplaced hope in men, and a surprising new appetite for the despotism of freedom-killing security.

So today, my American servants, I hope you don’t rethink your so-called “independence.”  For while you may be independent from other countries politically, by rejecting the very basis for that independence you ironically daily become more dependent on notions that form the very basis for my kingdom.

After all, I am the ultimate despot and I hold men back from the ultimate liberty, a liberty in Christ.

So today, why not formally declare your dependence on me?  Go out and celebrate Dependence Day, as is fitting under the circumstance.

Oh, and don’t forget to stick around for my fireworks!

A Non-Theocratic Regime? In your dreams.

Posted in atheism, atheists, Catholic Church, christians, False religion, religion, secular humanism with tags , , , , , , on March 7, 2011 by devilbloggger

Theocracy.

What comes to mind when you think of the word “theocracy,” my friends?  I hope it conjures feelings of discomfort, a tinge of anxiety, and images of dogmatic, top-down behavior requirements that make you just a bit uneasy.  Maybe you even think of freedom-crushing constraints on your religious liberties. Certainly you would never advocate a theocracy on earth, right?

Ha ha ha ha ha.

My servants, I am glad that you feel that way, because it shows you have become snugly comfortable in one of my greatest lies: a Godless society is a godless society.

You see, my servants, I have labored for centuries to cast every form of God’s church in an unfavorable light, ensuring that as each generation passes fewer and fewer people hold the Church in high esteem.  As the Church, God’s body on earth is held in low esteem, so governments of men hold God in low esteem.  And because something must be held in high esteem, in my new world order men hold in high esteem the only suitable substitute for God’s rule on earth: rule by men as gods.

But I have to be careful that I don’t overplay my hand. 

Overplay your hand? you ask.

Yes, my servants, I walk a fine line between ensuring that entire societies reject God without realizing that they nevertheless simultaneously embrace gods of men.  And such gods without God spell bad news.   Gods of men are infinitely more harsh and unjust than any perceived harshness or injustice of God.   My job is to obscure that fact. 

My job was made harder today, my servants, because some Canadian named David Warren stripped my plan bare, exposing the very heart of my strategy to all willing to read his essay entitled, “We Have an Upside-Down Religion.”  Warren’s excellent piece, if taken to heart by his fellow humans could decimate my kingdom on earth.  Fortunately, his piece is relatively long so most people will not have the patience to read it carefully.  And you, my servants, should not read it at all; I will summarize what I wish you to know.

Warren cites, in his words, “a brilliant, and fortunately little-read essay” by French author Rmi Brague, entitled, “Are NonTheocratic Regimes Possible?”  The essay suggests that the answer, surprisingly, might be no.  He observes that,

“[E]very human society, from the most primitive to the most outwardly sophisticated, accepts a doctrinal order, and a cosmology to explain it.”

This, my servants, is a kingdom secret revealed.  Yes, every society embraces a doctrinal order and a cosmology.  The question is merely on what foundation will the doctrine and cosmology rest? 

This is where my lie helps.  As Brague noticed:

“[T]heocracy” has become, in the West, a term of abuse merely, to be hurled at regimes like Iran’s, or less formally, at people like evangelical Christians who insist that their own most deeply held and cherished beliefs should sometimes be allowed to guide their conduct. It is taken to connote government by some class of priests or religious elders. It is assumed to exclude all “enlightened” polities, from which religious beliefs and ideals are methodically excluded.”

And Warren takes it from there to completely expose my lie on earth today:

“I go only slightly beyond Brague in observing that what makes our own society unique, is not its freedom from religion but rather the peculiar nature of the religion upon which our theocracy rests. That is to say, we have an upside-down religion, in which there is no God, but that “Not God” commands an obedience more absolute than God ever required, stipulating everything from the sanctity of antinomian sexual behaviour, down to how we should sort our garbage.”

Ahhhh.  That hurts so good!   I relish the truth but fear the truth revealed. 

Do see what has happened, my servants?  All of you said in your hearts above that the term “theocracy” conjures feelings of discomfort, a tinge of anxiety, and images of dogmatic, top-down behavior requirements that make you just a bit uneasy.  Maybe you even think of freedom-crushing constraints on your religious liberties.

But what does current liberalized, godless government and society give you?  Feelings of discomfort?  A tinge of anxiety?  Dogmatic, top-down behavior requirements that make you a bit uneasy?  Freedom-crushing restraints on your religious liberties?

And by gods who have banished God.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

I am good.  Admit it.  I am good!

As Warren notes:

“It [the new godless religion] rides upon an inexhaustible series of mildly fluctuating, but invariably self-contradictory moral and epistemological premises (or more precisely, conceits); and because everything is “relative,” nothing may be challenged.”

And,

“It is, as the lively Ann Coulter has suggested, a religion for which an extremely arid Darwinist materialism provides the founding cosmological myth. And abortion is its principal sacrament.”

Bingo.  Tagged.  Pwnd.  Whatever.

I’m just glad that essays like Warren’s, and words like Coulter’s seem to today’s godless religionists merely as more sour grapes from followers of one displaced theocratic regime toward the current theocrats and their blind followers. 

Here’s to the new theocracy!

Great Satan? (Good God!)

Posted in democracy, Devil, Great Satan, Uncategorized with tags , , on November 6, 2010 by devilbloggger

Blasphemy.

That’s what those crazy-fun Iranians were doing (again) this week.  Yes, my servants, as reported by AFP here, thousands of Iranians were recently on the streets again, railing  in mass protest against the “Great Satan” United States to mark the 31st anniversary of the capture of the American embassy by Islamist students.

Great Satan?  Moi?

Now I’m a little conflicted here on this one.  You see, on the one hand I’m flattered and honored, because I also hate the United States.  Many of my best fireteams have focused exclusively on the United States over the last 250 years, and they’ve made great progress. 

Go Iranians!  We’re with you!

But on the other hand, I must admit I feel a bit slighted at best, and blasphemed at worst.  Let’s face it, I AM the Great Satan!  Look at ME!  Pay attention to ME!  I am a jealous being and don’t wish to share my name and true evil nature with anyone.  It’s OK for people to imitate me, follow me, serve me, but to be me?  I must draw the line. 

To be frank, just between us, I resent that a country built on God’s truth carries my label.  Calling the United States the “Great Satan” only draws attention to the sharp contrast of cultures and the distinct differences in society between a country built on God’s principles of freedom and liberty and countries built on, well, other principles.  If no one knew of America’s Godly heritage it would be different–then maybe calling the U.S. the Great Satan might fool people into believing that I was responsible for America’s greatness.  But until all vestiges of America’s Godly heritage are erased, my name should not be attached to the United States except in honor as the agent of its sure and steady destruction. 

Of course the day is quickly approaching when America’s Godly heritage will be forgotten.  I have a timetable, and I’m right on track.  One day.  Soon.

Not only is the United States clearly not me, calling the United States the Great Satan takes away from who I am; it dilutes my franchise.  It fosters the growing belief globally that the REAL Satan doesn’t exist, but “Satan” is merely a metaphor for evil.  When you call someone else a Great Satan you take away from my true existence in the world, and my real evilness in the minds of men.

Imagine if men used God’s name so loosely to express outrage at things they dislike!  Imagine if people went around exclaiming outbursts like “Good God!!!” or “Oh my God!!!” or “Gawd!!!!” or “Godd_mnit!!” or “Jee-sus Christ!!”.  What if?  Ha ha ha ha ha! 

Hey, just because God sits patiently by while men get away with blasphemy doesn’t mean I must.  It’s time my servants use the term Great Satan to address me or to describe me.  I am the Great Satan.  Those Iranians have turned my lofty, puffed up name into a self-serving political tool.  And as a result I’m ridiculed among the very object of their attack.  At least two blasphemous websites, www.greatsataninc.com and Great Satan’s Girlfriend (Uggggg!)  play off my name to promote American exceptionalism of all things!  Enough! Stop already!

My ego is fragile, my pride is boundless, and my time is limited.  So, you must understand, my Iranian servants, that you do not please me as greatly as you could by blaspheming against my name, distracting from who I am, and generally drawing unwanted attention to my enemies instead of to me.  I know that to you I am not even a fallen angel, but a creation of “smokeless flame.”  And I know that your ability to know the truth of my real existence and true nature is hampered by your cultural and spiritual conditions.  I know all this, and for this reason I have a small measure of patience.

And even though I have blinded you to the truth that sets you free, I will not forebear forever with your ignorance of who I am.

Or, on second thought, maybe I will.

Declaring dependence one person at a time

Posted in election, Obama, voting with tags , , , , on October 27, 2010 by devilbloggger

NOTE:  It’s less than one week until the BIG election in the United States.  My voter issue guide will publish October 31.  Trick or treat, you decide.

Is it hot down here?  Or is it just me?  I mean, it’s like one of my sweatshops down here; we in Hell have been working overtime to ensure that certain candidates win in the upcoming elections in the United States.  My will on earth can be accomplished best where my servants rule most.  And this election we’ve had to work triple overtime; it’s been a long time since so many of my faithful have been underdogs.

Listen, my servants, you must realize that every time two candidates are running for office one of them will always be my pick.  He or she may not be perfect, and he or she usually leaves a lot for me to desire, but one candidate will always be more prone to think thoughts I like, more likely to do deeds I love, more willing to push legislation that furthers my purposes, and more open to generally doing my will on earth as it is in Hell.

Look for clues, like that witch O’Donnell, who credits prayer for boosting her campaign.  It’s hard even for me to tell sometimes, but I’m pretty sure she is not who I would vote for.  She doesn’t even believe that the words “separation of church and state” are written in the US Constitution’s First Amendment.  What a loser.  And I did get her to back down on her stand on creation by stating for the record “what I believe is irrelevant.”  (Psst. . . she doesn’t believe evolution explains your existence).  But, as I show below, what one believes about the creator is relevant; very much so.

So inform yourself, and be sure to vote for my candidates.  I’ve come way too far in the United States to start losing ground now.  Make sure that there is plenty of separation between church and state (at least the bad, God-believing kind of church; Satan-approved churches are OK).

About this creator business, and how it relates to US politics.  Do you know how long it took me to find anyone who would admit to believing that rights derive from the state, and not from a creator?  And do I not deserve some credit for finding not just anyone, but a president, who believes this?  In the United States of America? 

Whoa!  I’m good.

Over the years I’ve carefully groomed a generation of students to be statists–those who believe sovereignty is vested not in the people but in the national state, and that all individuals and associations exist only to enhance the power, the prestige, and the well-being of the state.

And the pinnacle of my achievement to date, more than I could ever ask or think, is the statist of statists, Barack Obama.  A man after my own heart; he can’t even bring himself to say the word “creator” unless it is conspicuously politically expedient.

Obama is Modern America.  Modern America, thanks to me, has forgotten the creator and looks to government to endow rights, in a slowly unfolding declaration of dependence. And with no thought about a creator, there can be no thought in Modern America about the unalienable rights that form an integral component of independence, as in the Declaration of Independence.  No creator = no unalienable rights.

Do any Americans even know what an unalienable right is? 

Well, I declare!  Ha ha ha ha ha.  I’m good.  I am GOOD!

Breaking News — Don’t Ask, DO Tell

Posted in homosexuality, Morality, political correctness, religion, Uncategorized with tags , , on October 13, 2010 by devilbloggger

What better time to introduce my Seal of Approval:

This just in, my servants.  Sometimes persistence and a good federal judge pay off.  In fact, that’s how I get just about anything I want in the United States.  It’s like taking candy from a baby.

And I’ve won again.  ABC News reports in an article entitled, “Judge Virginia Phillips Orders Immediate Halt to ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’” that a law I hate can no longer be enforced:

A federal judge in California today ordered an immediate, worldwide halt to the enforcement of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy that bans openly gay and lesbian individuals from serving in the U.S. military.

The article states that advocates for gay and lesbian service members praised the judge’s decision.  And I’m right there with them.  I would even go one step further: praise the judge! Praise judges.  Praise judges.

You see, I believe in a different kind of DADT:  Don’t Ask, Do Tell.  I want everyone to be quiet on this issue, except for my servants who wish to flaunt their sexuality, which is their right and my enemy’s wrong.  I want a society where there is no shame attached to deviant sexual activity of all varieties.  And how best to do this, than to force everyone into unquestioned acceptance of a harmful lifestyle, under the guise of Constitutional rights?  And what better place for my plans to come to fruition than right in the US military?  Hail to the Chief!

I know that a deviant lifestyle is destructive, and endorsing it by every means possible is ultimately corrosive to  society.  But why do I care?  You see, I’m not constrained by the “hate the sin, love the sinner” baloney.  I can love the sin and hate the sinner–and I do!  Ha ha ha ha ha. 

So you go, you federal judges in the United States.  You may be my only hope for compelled compliance to my will.

This decision merits this Blog’s first seal of approval:

Now, my servants, don’t let my enemies win on appeal!

Sing to me (only), oh students of my desire

Posted in atheists, Christmas, political correctness, toleration, Uncategorized with tags , , , on October 6, 2010 by devilbloggger

I love the sounds of songs not sung to the one I hate.

Quick question for all: If you say nothing about God, have you really said nothing about God?

Think about that while I relay to you the latest good news of my kingdom.  Once again I’m victorious in the United States, at least in the state of New Jersey and surrounds.  This “holiday” season the only music students will sing, and the only music I will hear is the wonderful music of atheism.  Yes, once again I snookered the Americans into thinking that saying nothing about God means you said nothing about God.  Whoops!  I just gave you a hint.

But yes, yes, yes, only music an atheist can fully endorse will be on the chorus lists for public school students this year.  The United States Constitution, according to the Courts, forbids the establishment of religions that always occurs when third graders sing songs like Silent Night, or O Little Town of Bethlehem.

My kingdom has advanced beyond my wildest dreams, and I have wild dreams.  There was once a time when the Bible was the primary textbook in American schools.  Major Ivy League universities, in which I now house my greatest thinkers, were more often than not started as places to train preachers of the Gospel.  And now?  Now kids can’t even sing a “religious” Christmas carol?   Ha ha ha ha ha.  Oh my, am I really dreaming? 

My latest victory started back in 2003, as the Wall Street Journal reported last year after the Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that students can sing only atheistic songs.  According to the WJS it went like this:

A December 2003 school concert, however, at a South Orange middle school included three Hanukkah songs as well as such Christmas faves as “Silent Night” and “Oh, Come All Ye Faithful.”

Of course, I’ve succeeded in getting the liberally tolerant to not tolerate such religious malfeasance in the United States, so naturally a parent was offended and, according to the WSJ:

A parent objected to the program, citing the 2001 policy, which led to a memo by the director of fine arts in the district, recommending that holiday music programs lean towards such selections as Frosty the Snowman.

A sane parent objected to the insanity (hey, I’ll be insane for such delicious triumphs!) and sued but lost, including on appeal to the Third Circuit.  And guess what:  an AP story entitled, “Court won’t hear appeal of religious song ban” reports today that the Supreme Court will not hear this case, so now it’s the permanent law of the land: no music about God in the New Jersey (and Third Circuit) public schools. 

I won.

Ha ha ha ha ha.  I WON!

Go ahead and sing Frosty the Snowman.  Sing Jingle Bells.  Sing Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tre . . . Oh, sorry, not that one; it mentions hmmm-mas.  But you get the idea.  Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer, Santa Clause is Coming To Town.  The list is endless, and it is, literally music to my ears.

My servants, you please me greatly. What we have done is nothing short of, well, miraculous.  As reported at the First Amendment Center the courts have spoken, and they have ruled that “school officials can determine which songs are appropriate according to constitutional guidelines to create a secular ‘inclusive environment.’”

A “secular inclusive environment”?  You know what that is?  It’s not a non-religious environment; it’s an atheistic environment!

And “inclusive“?   Of course, except of course of anything not atheistic.  You see, I have finally found a people willing to use the word “inclusive” when what they mean is “exclusive.”

I WON!

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Voter issue guide (Part 2–toleration of (almost) all views)

Posted in congress, Morality, political correctness, politics, religion, toleration, Uncategorized with tags , , , , , , on October 5, 2010 by devilbloggger

HOT TIP:  A complete, issue by issue US voter guide will publish on October 31, my Special Day.

Time was when I could wreak havoc upon a nation by influencing a single man.  I still do that, but in Western democracies it has become much harder; I now have to influence entire populations.  But I love a challenge.  And while the work is slower, it’s much more satisfying.  Where I used to change the heart of the king I now work night and day to change the heart of the voter. But never fear, my servants, the gates of Hell prevail against all but one, and voters are easily prevailed upon.

So with that, let me continue my voter issue guidance for US voters in the upcoming congressional elections. 

Elections in the United States always heat things up around here.  You see, the United States used to be the greatest threat on earth to my kingdom.  Like a great beacon of hope, sending out its shadow-scattering light seemingly without end, the United States used to keep us up at night.  But thankfully, following the example of Europe before it, in recent years most of the little lights of that great light have quietly snuggled under every comfortable bushel I set out for them.  (Unfortunately it’s true that there is no rest for the wicked, and now I’m fighting darkness-shattering blinding light bursting forth in other parts of the globe.)
 
Lest the light shine again from the United States, please  let me clue you into another fundamental voter issue to be aware of and effectively manage. Recall that in general, I am against liberty, against freedom of conscience, and against freedom of thought.  And, in general, I am for bondage, for forced toleration of all views by the individual, and for enforced centralized thought control for all.

Todays lesson: Tolerance vs freedom of conscience

I hate completely free speech on controversial topics, which are those topics that invariably touch on conscience–one’s deeply held beliefs.  On hot-button social  issues important to me, unless it is speech denouncing the Bible, belittling God, advancing immoral behaviors, or is otherwise anti-God, anti-Scripture, or anti-Biblical morality, I say offensive free speech constitutes hate speech and you should keep your big trap shut!  Show some toleration, you fool!

The trick for me has always been how to set society on a path of “almost” free speech, where certain viewpoints would be tolerated, thereby remaining in the realm of free expression, but other viewpoints of like kind would not be tolerated, but be banned as “intolerant.”  In Europe and the US I couldn’t attack free speech on its merits; nobody would admit to being against free speech.  So I kept coming back to that word “toleration” . . .

And I got creative.  First I dumbed down the electorate to the point where most of them think “offensive” speech should not be legally ”tolerated” as “free” speech.  Do your words hurt someone?  Then your speech need not, and should not, be tolerated. 

Second, I had to carefully craft a class of victims that can effectively claim offense.  I wasn’t against all free speech, just speech that I found offensive, which means any speech that tended to offend those I like, and those whose behaviors I delight in.  In short, I had to make sure that toleration was practiced in such a way that it did not include any deference or any public space for God or his kind.  And, let’s be fair, I brilliantly succeeded.

Third, and this is my crowning achievement; I surprised even myself on this one:  I had to ensure that intolerant speech got classified as a crime.  And not a nice crime of the good kind, but a hate crime.  I’m almost there in the US.

Ha ha ha ha ha!  Imagine that. ME behind criminalizing hate, and that only for things I love.  Ha ha ha ha ha.

The best way to illustrate the great advances I’ve made in the world, and wish to continue making in the United States, is the current case in Amsterdam against Dutchman Geert Wilders.  As reported by AP in a piece entitled, “Dutch politician on trial on hate speech charges,” this troublemaker is rightly on trial for speaking out (hatefully and intolerantly, mind you) by “comparing Islam to Naziism and by calling for a ban on the Quran.” 

Poor ol’ Geert.  He used the wrong kind of speech freely. 

Never mind that Wilders merely expressed his conscientious beliefs, as intolerant as they are.  I’m against such speech offending me and mine anywhere and everywhere, and I want it stopped.  And in Holland, I’m almost there; Geert Wilders may be heading to jail. 

I want the same reaction to “free” speech in the United States.  That is, I want any speech of which I disapprove stopped, if not fully criminalized, under the banner of “tolerance.”  How can we do this?  Easy, look for candidates who support any of the following: (1) enacting and enforcing “hate speech” laws; (2) publicly supporting only certain religious liberties; (3) entertaining the idea of curtailing or “balancing” certain news and commentary, either on television, radio, or the internet; and, (4) speaking of tolerance as a virtue, but reacting to traditional morality as a vice.

You can do it, but you have to work at it.  Most candidates do not come right out and say they are for “mostly free” speech or freedom of religious expression.  You have to look at their actions.  For example, maybe a politician nobly and loudly cites the First Amendment rights of mosque builders, but fails to stress the First Amendment rights of a Quran burner.  That’s exactly the kind of candidate I can really get fired up over.

Think I’m just blowing smoke?  Here’s how you can tell I’ve been successful in pushing my agenda: imagine Geert Wilders had made the exact same statements, but about Christians and the Bible instead.  Think he would be in court?

Ha ha ha ha ha.
