Oh dear. Now I want Nutty to write the doctrinal history of Christianity as a Fandom Wank entry.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The immigration question on that quiz is very conservatively biased - every single answer included some form of "tighten border security." Hmph.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Huh. So "King James is the only proper version of the Bible" = "Buffy was a bitch to Spike"?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Compare all the fights that happen within a particular fandom to the ones that happen between fans of totally different shows.
The temptation to write a thoroughly blasphemous Christianity Fandom_Wank is overwhelming. All the atheists just read along and shrug, "I'm in it for the lulz, yo."

Let the record frighteningly show that certain great minds do think alike.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Happy birthday, Sumi!
I've been sailing through Blogger's "next blog" feature, and because I'm that girl, flagging the inappropriate ones.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I think it is more the attitude of "I'm going to vote for someone who shares my values" rather than "I'm not going to vote for a Jew". Maybe it boils down to the same thing, but the first one sounds more reasonable. I think the crazy part is the assumption of a direct correlation between religious affiliation and values.
I don't care if I vote for someone who worships Satan in his/her personal life. You really just kind of have to take someone's word for what they believe.
Now, do his/her actions match up with my ideals of equal rights for everybody, fair wages, fair housing etc. Other than that be a member of Church What Thinks We All Were Barfed Up In A Giant Kitty's Hairball.
