Immediately, I wondered why you decided to give these ignorant people the time of day on your blog, and then I remembere that it is these same ignorant racist, patriarchal, white supremecist, dead scripture (said by their own Jesus) quoting, literalist idiots that have control of the world by and large and have considerable sway in politics (or so they think). So it becomes necessary to know our enemy and their sociopathic reasoning and justification for polarity and subjugation of others, it’s that old axe about humans always wanting to be special or better than someone else, how pre-school and yet pathetic.

Another excellent post.

I’m not an atheist.

But, I do not believe in or adhere to religions.

Religions have caused more hell and viciousness as practiced by so-called humans for as long as humnas have walked the Earth.

Call me a Christian?

Be prepared to be slapped in the face.

[...] Posted by Jack Stephens on February 16th, 2007 Terrance, who puts out the blog The Republic of T., writes about Virgina’s resolution to apologize for slavery and Virginia delegate FrankHargrove saying that Black people should “get over” slavery.: “reduced to slavery for his benefit.” The sentiment behind those words is far older than the nearly 150 years that have passed since they were written by our then Chief Justice. It’s also far from dead, and not entirely unrelated from Hargrove’s words. Not to tar all conservatives, or Republicans, with the same brush (though their record speaks for itself) but some of their compatriots have a peculiar preoccupation with defending, justifying, reframing, or just downplaying the history of Americans “peculiar institution.” [...]

several of these quotes were some of the most degenerate, racist, ignorant and disgusting that I have read in some time. Why anyone, especially people of color and women, would want to align themselves with these degenerates is beyond my comprehending capabilities. It is sad that people can say these things and honestly believe that the are being reasonable and that what they are saying is true.

slavery is good for only one thing: subjugating a group of people and FORCING them to work w/out benefit of monetary or societal compensation. did any of these ‘people’ ever stop and wonder why slaves were not allowed to read? Whites knew that their doing so, would cause discontent and unrest amongst slaves- and it did.

thank god i’m an atheist (pun intended)
