...because our lives are so damn interesting

The Lunatic Fringe

Can be found here. I think hanging out at Church lowers your IQ. I found this comment typical of the attitudes of evangelicals;

"There's such a decline of moral values," said Rebecca Garcia, an Antioch teacher and real estate agent. "The pushing of gay rights, abortion -- it's not to say that I don't like homosexuals. I don't like their sin."

Someone (actually entire groups of sexually frustrated, uptight, bigoted, hateful churchgoers) spends waaaay too much time thinking about other people's bedroom habits. Other comments;

• "Before I voted for him, I was waiting for him (Bush) to say, 'My Lord Jesus Christ,' " said John Romero, a 66-year-old retired custodian from Bay Point.
• "He's (Bush) putting God first," added Sol Shimmel, 49, a Martinez preschool teacher. "There has to be someone more powerful we can depend on."
• "I'm not sure in the long run what kind of threat it (same-sex marriage) could be," said Edith Van Horn, a 76-year-old Concord retiree. "But I'd rather err to the right."

I'm trying to think of some snappy wrap-up to this post, but it's just too depressing to know that it was these types of people (sexually frustrated, uptight, bigoted, hateful churchgoers) who put Bush into office... along with the morons already listed in previous posts.
