Me too.

[Wounded Bear]

1. K & R...nt

[Cassiopeia]

2. yeah, me too.

[hedda_foil]

3. Me too.

[jalan48]

4. I agree.

[dae]

5. I agree. n/t

[Fast Walker 52]

6. they'd rather believe there's nothing to worry about because god will take of them

if they believe in Jebus!

[Fritz Walter]

7. Some actually want the world to end

So that they'll be raptured, and would try to facilitate that process if put into a position of power.
Michele Bachman and Mike Huckabee, for instance.

[Fast Walker 52]

8. yeah-- they are the fucking worst. A death cult, literally.

[PearliePoo2]

24. Frist and Fast..you guys are so correct.

Add Cruz and Palin to that list too.
They are Domionists, they are delusional and they are deadly serious.
These tea-jhadist, nut-jobs want a fucking end-of-times Theocracy.

[LiberalLovinLug]

14. Exactly

Christians look at the glass as half empty.

This is a temporary world. Even though there are beautiful aspects of it, Heaven is MUCH more beautiful. The Earth is only here to strip and pillage because, hey, they already blew it in the Garden of Eden. After God ordered them out and to thus have to create their own crops, wealth, commerce etc...the game changed. And on top of that, they know that its all going to shit anyways, and they are going to get scooped up just in time so they are covered.

9. K&R.....

[cantbeserious]

10. The Malignant Overlords Have So Completely Brainwashed The Masses - This One Has Lost Hope

eom

[jwirr]

11. Exactly.

[SoapBox]

12. K & R a 1,000 times.

[Half-Century Man]

13. If they love G*d so much...

Why do they use the magnificent creation that is the only world given to us like a toilet, not a treasure?

[Solly Mack]

15. One requires people take responsibility and the other absolves them of responsibility.

In some minds, as long as a god created the universe, then ultimately, it's on that god to save the world or not.

If your beliefs tell you that the world was created by a god for the dominion of humans, and too many people do see it that way, then that relieves them of responsibility for protecting that world.

We hear it all the time from the right.

[MisterP]

20. that point's always amused me: if there's one thing both testaments agree on, it's

condemnation of whiny layabout giga-putzes

[Enthusiast]

16. Kicked and recommended! Me too.

[Martin Eden]

17. Does God Love all of His Creation?

If so, and if we Love God, shouldn't we be good stewards of his creation?

Anyway, that's the argument this agnostic uses for bible-thumping "conservatives" who oppose environmental regulations.

[raouldukelives]

23. You got it. nt

[tex-wyo-dem]

25. Yes, exactly!

Or, from another perspective, there's a reason all the ancient pagan and native religions and spiritual practices considered Earth the Mother...the provider and sustainer of life. So why are we killing our mother?

Modern people can learn a few things from ancient wisdom.

[ChiciB1]

18. Again... OUT OF THE PARK! Thanks! n/t

[appalachiablue]

19. Absolutely! Thanks, this is beautiful.

[Liberal_in_LA]

21. kick

[MrMickeysMom]

22. K & R... Also... If they cared as much about politics as football teams...

If we married both these cares, it would be a path to turning the world around.

I wonder about my co-workers.... "Who's more important? The Koch Brothers? Or, the back-up free safety to the Pittsburgh Steelers?" Half of them wouldn't know the first, but tell you all about the second, ad-nauseam.

[Rex]

26. They don't have to. Most been told the earth is here for their enjoyment.

God made this place for us to fuck up...when we die we go to Heaven, so this place doesn't matter. Don't you just love religion?
