		<description>#58 - &quot;One of the commandments, â€œThy shalt not killâ€. You should only utilize the Old Testament as an assistance too(l).&quot; Comment by Daryll â€” July 31, 2007 @ 12:16 pm

And, yet you support the lies Pres. Bush used to start the invasion of Iraq, and continue to fall for his lies to continue the occupation.

You must first look to the beam in your eye, before finding fault with the splinter in mine.  Unless you openly admit you are a pick &amp; choose &quot;c&quot;hristain.</description>

		<description>Creamcrusher:

I don&#039;t know what fantasy poll you&#039;re pulling out of your alimentary, but the one I see says: Approval ratings, Gonzalez= 28%; Democrats in Congress = 46%. Read the rest of the story instead of making it up (yeah, I know it&#039;s easier and that&#039;s what your buttbuddy Limpaugh says to do, but it&#039;s not real). Also, just because idiots like you call it a &quot;Democratic Congress&quot; doesn&#039;t negate the fact that around 45% of them are Republicans, and they&#039;re the jackasses pulling all the filibusters.</description>

Because unicorn worshiping loonies like Daryll prefer hate and hypocrisy over rational ideas and fair treatment of their fellow beings.  What can you expect from Daryll, a self loathing closeted gay black man.  Poor thing - didn&#039;t have a chance with all of that baggage to carry around!</description>

Nice try, liar. You forget that Congress includes Republicans. Here&#039;s the truth behind your ignorance: 

&quot;In fact, the most recent poll conducted by Stephanopoulos&#039; own network -- a July 18-21 Washington Post-ABC News poll -- showed President Bush with a lower approval rating than Congress. The poll found that Bush has a 33-percent approval rating and a 65-percent disapproval rating, and that Congress has ratings of 37 percent approval and 60 percent disapproval. 

Moreover, when respondents were polled on congressional Democrats and Republicans separately, congressional Republicans received a 34-percent approval and a 64-percent disapproval rating, while congressional Democrats received an approval rating of 46 percent and a disapproval rating of 51 percent.&quot;

		<description>&lt;em&gt;14% favorable opinion of democrat controlled congress. Is Gonzales really twice as good as democrats.

Paul, Paul, Paul... your talking points are a little stale. Might try keeping up. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19922788/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Here&#039;s&lt;/a&gt; the latest poll reported.

It has Congress at &lt;strong&gt;37% &lt;/strong&gt;and Bush at 34%.

Oops. There goes another perfectly good talking point.</description>

Yeah...I guess this is why God made Adam, and then made Eve only as an afterthought when he realized he&#039;d forgotten to make Adam a suitable mate.

Silly God....he should have never smoked that joint on the third day.</description>

		<description>(Jesus said marriage was made for a man and a women). Spit take, there is more to the bible than â€œLove thy neighborâ€.

Comment by Daryll â€” July 31, 2007 @ 1:49 pm

Where exactly did Jesus say â€œmarriage was made for a man and a womenâ€? Can you point me to the book, chapter and verse?

And sure, there is more to the Bible (I, too, capitalize it out of respect) than â€œLove thy neighborâ€. But if you had to reduce it to a single concept, that comes pretty close.

But I have to say, Daryll, your reading of the Bible, especially the New Testament, sounds pretty misshapen to me. Almost like you had to distort it in order to shoehorn it into a right-wing philosophy.

I mean, really â€” â€œcontinuing to give to those who refuse to help themselves â€œ??? â€œunequally taxing the richâ€??? Thatâ€™s the best you can do? THAT is what you consider â€œfilthyâ€?

Hooo-kayâ€¦

Matthew 19, verses 4-6:

 4&quot;Haven&#039;t you read,&quot; he replied, &quot;that at the beginning the Creator &#039;made them male and female,&#039;[a] 5and said, &#039;For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh&#039;[b]? 6So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.&quot;</description>

		<description>And when you felt his holy spirit did you give it a big squeeze Daryll? Did he visit you in the night and bless you with his touch? And did your butt hurt just a little the next morning?

I think it was your Uncle Carl.

		<description>&lt;em&gt;(Jesus said marriage was made for a man and a women). Spit take, there is more to the bible than â€œLove thy neighborâ€.

Comment by Daryll â€” July 31, 2007 @ 1:49 pm&lt;/em&gt;

Where exactly did Jesus say &quot;marriage was made for a man and a women&quot;? Can you point me to the book, chapter and verse?

And sure, there is more to the Bible (I, too, capitalize it out of respect) than &quot;Love thy neighbor&quot;. But if you had to reduce it to a single concept, that comes pretty close.

But I have to say, Daryll, your reading of the Bible, especially the New Testament, sounds pretty misshapen to me. Almost like you had to distort it in order to shoehorn it into a right-wing philosophy.

I mean, really -- &quot;continuing to give to those who refuse to help themselves &quot;??? &quot;unequally taxing the rich&quot;??? That&#039;s the best you can do? THAT is what you consider &quot;filthy&quot;?

Hooo-kay...</description>

		<description>And when you felt his holy spirit did you give it a big squeeze Daryll?  Did he visit you in the night and bless you with his touch?  And did your butt hurt just a little the next morning?

		<description>Daryll,

Your God sucks. And swallows. If you donâ€™t get on your knees and praise Poseidon right now His army of octopus and marlin will mow your ass down for blaphemy.

There is only one true God, and His name is Poseidon!

Why do you think New Orleans was destroyed by water? You think it was the titty bars you simpleton? It was all the evangelical Jesus freak churches that pissed off the true God and he destroyed New Orleans just as he will Salt Lake City.

So why arenâ€™t you out killing gays/lesbians as demanded of you by Leviticus??
Hypocrite!~!

Jesus said, &quot;thou shalt not kill&quot;.  I use the word of God to convict them.</description>

		<description>being disobedient to the head of which country? Where Christians in Uganda reguired to meet this condition? How about Christains in all of the countires with shitty heads of government. I have never heard this about Jesus before. See now I am really bummed. First I thought it was all crap. Then I thought Jesus might have been a pretty cool â€œanti establishment, stick it to the manâ€ type of righteous guy. Now you tell me that part of his message was to cowtow to whoevers in charge. Iâ€™m soo confused on this whole Christian thing.

Daryll: Have you considered editing â€œChristianity for Idiotsâ€

In the bible, didn&#039;t Jesus tell the Romans to obey Cesar?  If President Bush is not doing anything wrong, stop mocking him.  You are mocking one of God&#039;s chosen men.</description>

		<description>Daryll, Iâ€™ve asked this before, and you never seem to be willing to answer:

Just what about â€œliberal beliefsâ€ do you find â€œfilthyâ€?

And donâ€™t try to claim that â€œabortionâ€ is a â€œbeliefâ€. Iâ€™m talking about beliefs, like the belief that the poor deserve protection just like the rich, and freedom of religion is the only way for both government AND faith to be completely free. Beliefs like all humans deserve dignity in their individual paths to God and in their lives.

Could you explain some of these types of beliefs that most liberals would recognize, and tell us how they are â€œfilthyâ€?

Thanks.

Here&#039;s a few, continuing to give to those who refuse to help themselves (Jesus said, &quot;In order to eat, you must work&quot;), unequally taxing the rich (we are all equal in the eyes of God), supporting same sex relationships (Jesus said marriage was made for a man and a women).  Spit take, there is more to the bible than &quot;Love thy neighbor&quot;.</description>
