WARNING: OFFENSIVE MATERIAL AHEAD! TREAD WITH CARE!

Personally i found it funny ~D
Wow, quite scary if you ask me.
And we french got mad when Le Pen (our local extrem right guy) says things not even barely as stupid as that. These guys would be put in jail on first sight in France.
At least we can happily say that you are fatter than the snowball's chance in hell a Le Pen would have trying to get elected here.
I have found it somewhat disturbing.
Now truechristian.com I though was funny.
Funny stuff, until you realize they are serious.Quote:
"I would like to outlaw contraception...contraception is disgusting – people using each other for pleasure."
ichi :bow:
This is also a funny parody site:

Some people thought it was serious ~;p
Yeah, I found the 'Pope's message from hell' particularly humorous... especially the part about how being sodomized by demons doesn't really bother him too much. ~:rolleyes:Quote:

What it comes down to is the country as an agregate, and while the US may be more right wing than Europe, these people in my opionion are not hugely representative of the US as a whole.
At first I thought they were joking, then I realised they were serious...wow ~:eek:
Interesting that John Ashcroft was the most reasonable.
Yep, I read this stuff and I just fall to my knees and beg to be a Conservative.
:saint: "Please Lord, can I be one of them too? Can I wear a bow tie and tell everyone else how much I hate everyone else?"
that Ann Coulter really is one creepy person... ~:eek:
"Not all Muslims may be terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims."
Maybe Ann Coulter should get back in the kitchen and shut up like some of the other people quoted on that site believe women should do . ~D
"When science and the Bible differ, science has obviously misinterpreted its data."
Nice to see a picture of Navaros in real life ~;)
I couldn't even read the whole thing... dumbasses.
My Left Wing Quote of the day will be
"If Sodomy is a crime worse than murder, then we have all been sodomised by the Government" ~;)
Just a comment from my side - no matter from which "political camp" you come, please keep in mind that faisal appparently posted the links pretty much tongue in cheek, so hopefully this will not be taken as an opportunity for bashing and/or flaming any country/religeous group.
Thanks :bow:

All the more reason to have as much fun now, since I'm screwed anyway! ~:cheers: ~:smoking:Quote:
"Today's children... They're damned. They're gone."
"With all due respect to those dear people, my friend, God Almighty does not hear the prayer of a Jew."
If FDR'd lived, and could've gotten up out of his wheelchair, I bet he'd have personally strangled this man. Foul antisemite.
Especially that Ann Coulter is scary. But also funny, since, if her 'values' were instituted, she'd be sent on a beeline straight to the kitchen, never to come out again, with the exception of producing offspring. :]

Amazing what is allowed to be posted in the Guild here and what is not... I've seen enough. Have a good life everyone.Quote:

Ouch, that's quite... extreme. I couldn't bring myself to read them all. Among those I've read the worst ones probably are Jerry Falwell and Fred Phelps ("Not only is homosexuality a sin, but anyone who supports fags is just as guilty as they are. You are both worthy of death.") ~:eek:
The funniest has to be Henry Morris with a memorable: "When science and the Bible differ, science has obviously misinterpreted its data."
Brilliant stuff. How conservatism became entangled with theocracy is beyond me, but it's clearly unhealthy for all involved -- and everybody uninvolved. There can be no innocent bystanders when the theocrats are running the show. I particularly liked the guy talking about "We don't want pluralism," almost a direct quote from a guy named Adolf.
I assume everyone's familiar with the Taliban-esque spoutings of the Westboro Baptist Church? Another fine place to read the rantings of intolerant theocrats.
Says it all about a certain strand of political thought progressing more and more into mainstream US politics. It is disturbing.
No, I think he's quitting the guild. Read his post in the Conservative Club.Quote:

Some of that Westboro Church stuff is really disgusting. Picketing a funeral of a soldier killed in Iraq by an IED? Freedom of speach and all I know, but surely there must be some common decency involved?
All these people ranting about Satanism...Nazis were Satanists? I would say "unbelivable", but I guess they believe it..
If he is quitting because some people on his side of the political spectrum are crazed loons, he really has lost his legendary sense of humour.Quote:

One could certainly see it as bordering on the latter. However, looking at the post that started this thread I do not have the impression that it was meant to slander conservatives in general.Quote:

I think dgb summarized the situation quite well:
Personally, I do not believe that posting these quotes is on par with posting of e.g., Coulter articles, of which conservatives (probably rightfully) point out that they should not be taken too seriously - after they notice that they caused the intended feather-ruffling of the left-wing faction of the Backroom.Quote:

I don't think the thread was started as anything other than a good laugh, and I'm sorry if my last post left folks with then intention that I didn't get that. But there's a certain tone to the follow ups, and a lack of balance, that you can almost see folks seething and nodding and saying "Yeah, that's how Christians are...yeah they're all like that". Maybe I'm reading too much into it, I don't know. I actually found the webpage itself a little enlightening, and many of the quotes listed I see no problems with, and was surprised they were being offered up as evidence of what a bunch of crackpots those of us on the Right are.
Anyway, as they say, the criticisms you feel are the ones that sting the most. Clearly, there's more than a touch of truth, and I do find it interesting to compare that webpage to the ones we frequently being posted about 'what they're saying in Friday prayers in the mosques', which I believe was Faisal's point with this thread in the first place. I for one will have to tuck this aside as a dose of reality and quit paying lip service to 'there's crackpots on all sides' and own up to the truth of it and perhaps give Islam a little bit more of a break.
And just to prove I can take a joke, I'm going to bring up my personal favorite line that I'm astonished nobody has posted so far...
"If you got to castrate your miserable self with a piece of rusty barbed wire then, do it". This is priceless.
This is certainly the case ... this is what we certainly see quite often here in the Backroom. Some extreme views of members of certain political/religeous/whatever group are taken and people have a jolly good time seeing their worst prejudices confirmed.Quote:

As long as people do not take it too seriously, start flaming or use the extreme examples to make sweeping judgements it's acceptable.
... if things get out of hands I will have to tase you ~D (this is a more general "you", not directed at you in particular, Don ~;) )
EDIT:
That is indeed "sig-material" ~DQuote:
