The Sun's not yellow it's chicken

JTEM whining about this & that, plus the secrets of the universe and the occasional chicken recipe.

Really?

obama-2012:

i mean the No God thing is fine and all and I’m willing to turn a blind eye to their ahistorical “religion ruined civilization!!!” tripe but I find their humanist narrative intolerable

I always find it somewhat enlightening — similarities to “The Enlightenment” purely intentional — but that the humanist themselves are a bunch of skanky twits.

Now I hate to quote myself (no I don’t) but this is something I banged out in 2007, after attending a “Humanist” event…

"A Celebration of the First Annual Award for
Outstanding Lifetime Achievement in
Cultural Humansim.

Presented by:

The Humanist Chaplaincy at Harvard.

Sound good? Sound right up the alt.atheism alley?

You wish....

Picture a line of self-important "Dignitaries" tossing
around "Humanist" and "Secular" like a group of
adolescent girls who only recently heard these words
for the first time, and determined that the secret to
coming across as mature & beautiful women is to
repeat them as often as possible.

Next came a great talk by Salmon Rushdie, followed
by an all-too-lengthy reading.  Now don't get me wrong.
The man is without a doubt a very clever writer. But I
have to admit that the only reason that you or I (or
anyone else) knows this is because of a lucky (and
well timed) Fatwa which rescued him from obscurity.

All & all, I'd say that the fate of secular humanism,
as a movement in this nation, is doomed...
