McDonalds: Billions and Billions Insulted

Liberty Counsel: "Liberty Counsel is joining the boycott against McDonalds. While referring to Christians and other people with traditional values, a McDonalds spokesman arrogantly stated, 'Hatred has no place in our culture,' suggesting that anyone supporting the historical definition of marriage is motivated by hate. The company has insulted everyone who supports traditional marriage. McDonalds might as well change their signs from 'billions and billions served,' to read 'billions and billions insulted.'"

Focus on the Family (Dr. James Dobson) - Broadcast Archives: "'Religion is the only solid basis of good morals.

Abortion Causes Global Warming

Abortion Causes Global Warming

It is a sad fact that if you could prove a link between abortion and global warming many more people would be a pro-life. We would no longer have to rely on science and compassion to prove our point. We would not need to take the time to explain the fact that the "fetus" has a distinct and unique set of DNA from the moment of conception. No more arguing about "viability"- nevermind the fact that viability moves up earlier and earlier as medical technology improves. All we have to do is point out that when Planned Parenthood incinerates the "nonviable tissue," they contribute to greenhouse gases.

Actually just think how much our collective carbon footprint could be shrunk just by closing all of those planned parenthood clinics! Maybe we should impose a new fall profits tax on them!

Yes this is pretty sardonic-but just count how many times today you see the word "green"-in the stores you go to, the websites you visit, in the advertisements you see and hear.

McCain: Pump This!

McCain: Pump This! - HUMAN EVENTS: "It's always the same argument. Year after year, the 'moderate Republicans' so respected at The New York Times harangue us to dump the Christians, the conservatives, the Swift Boat Veterans, the 'right-wing extremists,' the gun-and-God clingers and the fanatical pro-lifers from our party so we can repel every American who voted for Ronald Reagan in order to win the votes of people like Christine Todd Whitman."

"How Would God Vote?"

Townhall.com::Blog: "The campaign of 2008 has already witnessed the dramatic rise of the Religious Left, with Barack Obama and other liberals claiming scriptural authority for their big government versions of compassion. In this context, “How Would God Vote?”, the explosive new book by David Klinghoffer, provides an invaluable response. The subtitle says “Why the Bible Commands You to be a Conservative” and the book digs deep into scriptural text to emphasize that the Almighty demands individual commitment, rather than asking human beings to satisfy their obligations to their nieghbors through impersonal government policy."

Global Warming Hysteria

Global View - WSJ.com: "The Arctic ice cap may be thinning, but the extent of Antarctic sea ice has been expanding for years. At least as of February, last winter was the Northern Hemisphere's coldest in decades. In May, German climate modelers reported in the journal Nature that global warming is due for a decade-long vacation. But be not not-afraid, added the modelers: The inexorable march to apocalypse resumes in 2020.

This last item is, of course, a forecast, not an empirical observation. But it raises a useful question: If even slight global cooling remains evidence of global warming, what isn't evidence of global warming? What we have here is a nonfalsifiable hypothesis, logically indistinguishable from claims for the existence of God. This doesn't mean God doesn't exist, or that global warming isn't happening. It does mean it isn't science."
