Fundamentalism claims to be about the fundamentals of historical doctrine.  What it's ACTUALLY about is the culturally-specific fundamentals of conservative ideology.  American fundamentalism as it emerged in the 19th century embraced many doctrines that are not necessarily reflective of orthodox Christianity in its…

You see, @BobbyBrownGoesDown:disqus, ditching the sticks for the life jacket implies the admission that the sticks were not a life jacket all along.  People don't like admitting that something they've believed firmly was always crazy.  That makes it sound like they're crazy, and few people are willing to believe that…

My mom used to do the same thing.  And I used to watch reruns of it with her when I was a little kid.  I always liked it, but I don't think I've seen an episode for over ten years.

More sedate than manic, I'd argue.

Czars=Russians=Communists=Ted Nugent still lives in the 1970s.

No, but the collective votes of the masses ought to mean something.  Dividing them up artificially in order to create foregone conclusions is a travesty.

My dreams, my dreams are all fading away…

Panty stars are to Wonder Woman as bat ears are to Batman?  I don't buy it.  The ears are thematically appropriate to the bat motif.  If the same logic applies to Wonder Woman's panties, it seems that the implicit message is that what makes her "wonderful" is her resemblance to a stripper on the Fourth of July.

Stop tantalizing me with things that could never be!

Ahhahahaha…it's true.  Those guys are weird.

That girl's a cutie.  Nerds in love are a beautiful thing!

Thanks, I needed that.
