The Talibangelicals

How very inclusive you are. Tell me why is that you can only
tolerate
those whose views that you agree with? Maybe you need to really walk
the walk and not slander those you don't agree with.


I am ordinarily reasonably tolerant. However, there are those who
would curtail my - or yuor - civil liberties in support of their own
peculiar idea of what God wants. I don't have any patience with that.

They're Evanglicals who are not unlike the Taliban. Hence,
Talibangelicals. It's usefully descriptive.

Can you name one Evanglical that shot his daughther in the head because she was raped or
It wouldn't be hard to name an Evangelical who blew up a building in
Oklahoma -- or an Evangelical who called for the assassination of a
foreign ruler.... for that matter, go back about 50 years and I could
name some Evangelicals who hung blacks from trees in the USA.

That's a simple one. Mosques and synagogues are defaced constantly by
Evangelists. AND... evangelicals are well known for surfing gay porn
sites (see JIM WEST (R), FORMER MAYOR OF SPOKANE --- a devout
conservative).

beliefs.

Tonight was the longest night of the year

Feast to honor Odin at the darkest part of winter (Dec. 22). Odin's
nickname was Jolin (pronounced "Yolin", and from there came the word
Jul (Yule). The old Norse referred to the celebration as "drinking
Yule".

The Asatru dedicate this festival to Frey, the god of fertility and
farming. Evergreen trees and holly are frequently used to represent
him.

Commemoration of the rebirth of the sun with the Birth of the Divine
Child, He who is known as Beli Mawr, The Shining One, Great Lord of
Divine Fire. Here, on the longest night of the year, the Goddess gives
birth to the Sun Child and hope for new light is reborn.
The Birth is celebrated with games, merry-making and feasting which
usually includes pork, the flesh of the sacred sow, and apples, the
fruit of the tree of Avalon, the Blessed Isle of Death and Rebirth.
Yeah, I been to one of those. But we had Mead, also!

It *is* a blast, isn't it!?!

What reference manual?
My point exactly.
