Apparently proof does deny faith

[charliesmum]

gehayi posted a thing in her journal about some article about Harry Potter=Satanism. Apparently the article was a parody, but was picked up by this fundamentalist group and taken as, er, gospel, if you'll forgive the pun. Apparently being Born Again also means you don't have to check facts.* Proof denies faith, you know.

Naturally I trolled around that website, and I seriously can't stop laughing. It's addicting, the number of things these people believe to be evil. I'm not quite sure how they even stand to live in this world, since even the most innocuous event is tainted by the devil. These people don't even like Christmas!

That said, they do make a couple of valid points. One: The Ku Klux Klan, White power, White Knights, Aryan nation, Skin heads and any other group who follow after the ideas of Hitler, are demon possessed!!!! (although I personally think that humans don't need any demonic influence to be evil.)

And two: Apparently George and Laura Bush are TEH EBIL! (okay, maybe I don't really agree with that viewpoint, but it is amusing, no?)

So apparently because George Bush doesn't know how to properly sign 'I Love You', he's the devil. It all makes so much sense now.

And of course we all know Rock N Roll is the tool of the devil(TM) but did you know Modern electronic-rock music, inaugurated in the early 1960s, is, and always has been, a joint enterprise of British military intelligence and Satanic cults. On the one side, the Satanists control the major rock groups through drugs, sex, threats of violence, and even murder. On the otherside, publicity, tours, and recordings are financed by record companies connected to British military intelligence circles. Both sides are intimately entwined with the biggest business in the world, the international drug trade.

I am way too amused by this entire site. It has to be a joke. Right?

Oh - in other news, congratulations to my sister Stephanie who just announce she is expecting a baby in November! Hurrah!

ETA: *No offence intended to anyone who is Born Again and is also not an idiot, of whom I'm sure there are many.

oooh Satanism...
I always supported Marilyn Manson's opinion about ignorant people who judge without knowing. It's a shame such people exist and even a bigger shame that they are multiplying.
For the record: if there is a god, I want to go to hell. Afterall, that's where the cool people are anyway ;)

LMAO I thought they will always be her to point out our evil ways!
LOL! People need to read before the speak, but that will never happen.

My daugther was about 7 or 8 at the time and I was in line at Taco bell getting us some food. I try not to evesdrop on people but when Harry Potter came up I started to listen, this is what she said she was taliking to a frieand at the time. I have to to to waldenbooks after this and return the Harry Potter book my son bought the other day. I was thinking there must have been something wrong with it right I mean why return it otherwise, then she tells her frieand how she had to explane it to him again about how it promots satin and with crats ect... she then said and I about lost it, it took all my will power not to laught so hard I almost pee'd my pants on the spot. I am going to get him an x-men book that he can read and that ok because they could not exsits so the church does not have a problem with it....... I thought to myself, how can you even think that way X-men who are more vilant (sp) then anything in the Harry Potter books, but there ok to read. Muantents of have more power than wizards and witches, kill if they have to but there ok to read....... I still ponder that to this day on how people make what they want right.
