A Hotch Potch From Across The Pond

by ianrthorpe @ 2007-01-12 - 19:23:51

Little Nicky is becoming a global force in blogging so I get around many interesting blogs.

One subject that is dominating a lot of discussions across the pond at the moment is religious fundamentalism.

Here's a gimpse of how rough it can get as the Liberals who have got tired of trying to be reasonable start to stand up to the rabid religious right:

Pam Spauling, Pandangon blogger, on the religious right's attacks on the new democratically elected Democrat leaders of Congress for her support for gay rights.
Radical Gay Eggs and Ham - Pam Spaulding

A story by Pandangon's Amanda on how the religious right are only willing to debate issues when they can control the agenda.
Massachusetts Marriage Bigots call For Positive Dialogue

From Salon.com an article on the Christian right's infiltration of America's social support agencies, education system and Government. This piece is wrtitten by a Christian conservative who is alert to what is happening.
War On America

And a few words from Pandangon again on the topic of hetrosexual anal sex which we freethinkers reckon should stir the fundies up as much as homosexuality.
Hetrosexual Anal Sex

Well that's just a few to be going on with. People who think my attacks on fundamentalism should take a look at the stories and comments. You weill see that the liberal views are always rational and justifiable. RR rebuttals of those views contain threats, the vilest kind of verbal abuse relating to gender and sexual orientation.

So if you think I am a bit brutal at times be glad we're all British. Because in America its not the liberals or us limey pinko faggots who get the worst abuse from the Religious Right. Its people who support them but are not extreme enough!
