Damnit, this is stupid!

Ok, can someone tell me: should I laugh or just be pissed off at this brain-dead paranoid religious stupidity?

At least PZ Myers has decided to laugh.

EDIT: Changed title to make it more clear.

There cannot be a center without a fringe. If that fringe should be a lunatic one, and it usually is, that's the luck of the draw. I agree with PZ; it is to laugh -- and hoard canned goods & stockpile ammnuition. Drinking heavily might also be of benefit.

The occultists are "weaving lazy 8's around McCain's mind to make him look confused and like an idiot". Bree K. said we need to break these curses off of him that are being sent from Kenya.


I think this is substantial proof that witchcraft works and is much stronger than prayer.

How delicious subtle blend of religious fanaticism and good ol' fashioned racism...

Did anybody mention to them that Kenyan were mostly Christians? And Protestants to boot (it used to be a British colony).

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

PLEASE PRAY TODAY AND CONTINUALLY THAT ALL SUCH CURSES BE BROKEN AND SATAN'S PLAN FOR AMERICA BE DEFEATED, IN JESUS' NAME.
So, if I understand Jim Bramlett and fringe, if Obama wins the election, then Satan is more powerful than Jesus/God.

I'd still rate 'em at about the same.

Is that due to their being fictional, created by man, and therefore powerless?

Yeh, that and according to the story, they seem to share about the same trait of megalomaniacal viciousness.

Sigh.

Next, might we hear that the Obama family cat is their familiar spirit?

It was only a matter of time before the fundies brought witchcraft into this, especially with an added racist, African "witchdoctor" slant.

My personal answer to your question: I suggest splitting the difference about equally. Make it a productively derisive laugh.

That is my exact reaction. I have to physically restrain my reaction when confronted with such nonsense in person. I'm not always in time to stop my mouth from engaging though.

I find it amusing in a sick sort of way.

Every organization needs an adversary, a horrible bug-a-booger, to rail & rally against for the edification of the membership and their purses. Religions have many of all sorts and witchcraft is merely a golden oldie, re-warmed. Again.

"By their enemies shall you know them as they are no more than reflections." Practitioners of witchcraft, even the sincere ones, are frauds.....
