yay…another tirade on the right-wing christians of america. i never professed to be very p.c….but heres the usual prologue blah blah blah abt not being anti-christian (im actually anti-religion). this shit entertains me to no end. tien (via his friend rachelle) sent me this article on the growing rift between religious and intellectual america. more people in the u.s. are likely to believe in the virgin birth of jesus (84%) than they would in evolution (28%). ur kidding me. that offsets my original estimate of only 80% of the country being stupid. theres apparently a growing divide not only between religion and intellectuals in the u.s…but also the rest of the industrialized world. apparently no other industrialized nation (save possibly south korea) is as religiously nutters as america. why is that? is it b/c of bush? (who was purportedly ordained by the hand of god to be our president. chads are apparently gods new flaming bush. wait…get it? bwahaha!!!) tho america was sliding towards zealous religiousness even before bush took office. or is it b/c the majority of this nation are jus a bunch of paranoid flakes needing divine reassurance that they’ll be ok? i dont kno. all i kno is that if god willed bush to be our president, gods decision-making abilities are seriously suspect at the moment.
