I always thought that the Abrahamic god was either A) a lunatic, B) a drunk or C) a teenage kid and we are all his cyber creations in his video game like the SIMs or world of warcraft and he likes to fuck with us to gain points in the game.
God Hates Shrimp
Shrimp, crab, lobster, clams, mussels, all these are an abomination before the Lord, just as gays are an abomination. Why stop at protesting gay marriage? Bring all of God’s law unto the heathens and the sodomites. We call upon all Christians to join the crusade against Long John Silver’s and Red Lobster. Yea, even Popeye’s shall be cleansed. The name of Bubba shall be anathema. We must stop the unbelievers from destroying the sanctity of our restaurants.
Leviticus 11:9-12 says:
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
Deuteronomy 14:9-10 says:
9 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.
In those times , crusteans listed where and are scavengers , shiteaters as it were ,capable of making one very ill . In addition one can be born with a allergy to shellfish which is deadly , and it is not uncommon today for adults in midlife to develop the same deadly allergy .There were no drugs to save the victim back then.In addition there are shellfish that sting and kill rather quickly .
Pigs ? -trichinosis .Pigs eat their own swill .
The ole’ milk and meat ban came from a civilised attitude towards animals, as boiling a cow pregnant with calf , the unborn calf being the delicacy was a common practice .
There was sound reason and logic based on experience and observation , regarding the dietary laws , in the age in which they were written .
Today of course methods of preparation and medicine has changed all that , making it really unneccessary to abide those laws except for sake of tradition . To this day the most humane way to slaughter an animal is with an extremely sharp knife severing the caratid artery , it is painless and fast .
As for the gay thing , well we should all know better by now .
Dont know about any of that , I’m just saying those dietary laws found their origins , not from clay tablets , but from practical experience . How long before people figured out it’s not a good idea to drink their wine from a lead cup ?
I told my kids their teeth would rot and fallout .Or worse the real boogyman was the dentist and his drill .

Posted for the shear irony: The Republican freakout over the Affordable Care Act has gotten so out of control and elaborate that the freakout is creating more "problems" now for Republicans to freak out over. It's a dragon eating its own tail form of outrage creation. For instance, conservatives are up in arms because congressional staffers now can have insurance plans that cover abortion, ...
I only learned of this yesterday, and was sad to hear that "Progressive talk" will end on KTLK 1150 AM on January 1st, to be replaced by wingnut radio. I can't say I'm surprised by this. KTLK is a weak station that also carries Los Angeles Kings hockey games, UCLA football games, and other sports which often pre-empt scheduled programming, and as a result ...

After all, Limbaugh is the man who launched 46 personal attacks on Sandra Fluke in 2012, including calling her a "slut" and a "prostitute" for testifying in favor of affordable contraception, and little has changed since then. Just in the month of November, Limbaugh compared filibuster reform in the Senate to "allow[ing] women to be raped"; suggested that women in the military synchronize their ...
If the Virginia Republican Party wants to move past the far right candidates that shut them out of their state's top offices last November, they may not want to take advice from people who believe that most of the Twentieth Century is unconstitutional. This weekend, Virginia Republican activists and elected officials from around the state will gather at the Homestead Resort for the party's ...
WikiLeaks and The Huffington Post have raised all kinds of unshirted hell this morning by publishing a trove of documents relating to the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the gigantic new trade agreement which was negotiated largely in secret -- unless, of course, you were a CEO or a lobbyist who worked for one -- and which the administration is seeking to "fast-track" through Congress so as ...

*sigh* FBI agents began arresting Los Angeles County sheriff's officials Monday as part of a wide-ranging investigation into allegations of abuse and misconduct inside the county's jails, according to sources familiar with the arrests. At least three people -- including a lieutenant, a sergeant and a deputy -- were taken into custody as part of a federal obstruction of justice probe into how sheriff's ...
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel just published a blockbuster story that's today's must read: Based on court records, police reports and dozens of interviews, the paper details how the ATF used "rogue" tactics -- including providing underage youths with alcohol and allowing them to smoke pot -- to run storefront gun and drug stings across the country. In our estimation the most explosive allegation made ...
I categorized this article under the heading: health. Why? because I think lying especially institutionalized lying is injurious. For the individual and the group, lies fester and rot creating illness, dysfunction and death to the body and the soul. What is so disheartening is the fact that lying is not necessary. There is no shame in truth. The Churches stance on homosexuality (and sex) ...
Beyond new state efforts to restrict women's access to proper reproductive health care, another, if quieter, threat is posed by mergers between secular hospitals and Catholic hospitals operating under religious directives from the nation's Roman Catholic bishops. These directives, which oppose abortions, inevitably collide with a hospital's duty to provide care to pregnant women in medical distress. This tension lies at the heart of ...
Could have put this under "Wingnuts," but this happened awhile ago, so I thought "History" was more fitting. Anyone on the right wants to claim Republicans or conservatives never supported the Apartheid regime, here's something else you can use to debunk them. This was also motivated by profit, so whoever says greed is good, has been proven wrong in this case as well. That ...

There are indeed things we don't talk about and it's long past time we do talk about it, share it and stop feeling it's our fault. Mental, emotional and financial abuse is widespread. It may not leave bruises, but the injuries run deep. Women from all walks of life can be subject to it. It happens to people of all races, all faiths, all ...
