Oh no Bobby Jindal! 

Prob­a­bly chances are you won’t under­stand the fol­low­ing pic­ture, but I have con­fi­dence that you will be able to grasp “the funny” in this >140 char­ac­ter satire on vol­cano monitoring.

Rick Warren “Whatever it takes” 

I hon­estly saw Rick War­ren as decent guy who just wasn’t to fond of the Gays of hav­ing Marriage.

I was gravely wrong.

What­ever it takes…those words sent a chill through my spine. If it was just some nut spew­ing out those words it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, but this is Rick War­ren who is say­ing it. The same man who can fill a sta­dium with thou­sands, the same man who leads one of the largest Churches in Amer­ica, and the same man who will be preach­ing to mil­lions of peo­ple dur­ing the Obama inauguration.

Rick War­ren and his ideas are a threat to ratio­nal­ity. Even of the Chris­t­ian sort. Jesus never said “I want you to do this pub­licly” he said to pray in pri­vate and to be hum­ble about faith(Matthew 6:5 — 7). Does Rick hon­estly believe that Jesus envi­sioned mega churches and sta­dium prayers for the future of Christianity.

Scary stuff indeed. As indi­vid­u­als, as ratio­nal peo­ple as nor­mal humans we must say no to peo­ple like Hitler, Mao, Lenin and Rick Warren.

People who make me sick: Pregnant man 

So it turns out that Preg­nant man, Thomas Beatie got preg­nant again. The only thing really sur­pris­ing about his sec­ond preg­nancy is that he didn’t syn­chro­nize it with a book release. I won­der if hes going to pose for some more nude pho­tos this time around. Some peo­ple may call me intol­er­ant here, but really this whole preg­nant man story really makes me sick. Its not that he is trans­gen­dered and preg­nant, but its how the fam­ily exploits their sit­u­a­tion for profit while pass­ing it off as help­ing peo­ple under­stand. That is the real dis­gust­ing part of the story. He could have done a few inter­views, but tak­ing nude pho­tographs isn’t help­ing anyone.

The other thing that ticks me off about this whole story is that this man tries to por­tray him­self as a vic­tim. “We shouldn’t have to do this, but we just want our pri­vacy”. If he really wanted his pri­vacy, if he really wanted to be seen as no dif­fer­ent than any other fam­ily then he wouldn’t be whor­ing out his story to every sin­gle media out­let. I’m sorry(actually no I’m not), but this guy gets no respect from me in my book.
