1. Texas Supreme Court rules church can't be sued in exorcism

This has more to do with faith "healing" than exorcism, but a great comic nonetheless dealing with religious child abuse:

This is the same guy who did the "praise Richard Dawkins" toon a few months back.

Narrator-

Yeah, that's her. UCB is one of the best sketch comedy shows EVER! This particular sketch is funny, but not their best work. Scrub's right, check out the "ass pennies" skit.

I agree with evolver23. As angry as this makes me, I'm more saddened than anything.

7. God's cure for gays lost in sin

I like pink donuts and Christmas cookies too. I associate the color with a delightful flavor as well.

And I associate the color with a delightful part of the female anatomy. (I'll assume, perhaps incorrectly, that that's not the flavor al is referring to.)

I remember when I was about 4 or 5 years old, pink was my favorite color. That is until one of my playmates informed me that pink is "a girl's color." I remember being ashamed of myself and no longer regarded the color as my favorite. (OK, one-two-three: "Awwhh!") Don't worry, I'm over it now.

It seems curious that homosexuality would continue to be present in a population when there does not seem to be any way homosexual genes (if there are such things) would be passed to the next genereation.

What are you talking about, Frankus? With groups like "Mercy Ministries," homosexuals are reproducing all the time. Just look at Sy Rogers!

Mitchell Gilks:

I don't think al-rawandi is guilty of the appeal to nature fallacy: he didn't say that homosexuality is unnatural and therefore wrong. (Correct me if I'm wrong, al.) I think he's simply suggesting that homosexuality is an aberation because it doesn't seem to offer any evolutionary advantage. I'm not so sure about that myself, but it is an interesting question.

As far as "normal" goes, normal is just what you're used to.

Well, I've completely changed my opinion of Alan Colmes. I loved when he called that lady out about our constitutional right to offend! Great interview.

I hope the WBC keeps at it. They're turning more people away from homophobic bigotry and religion than I ever could.

I'd like to see all of these comments posted on Godtube. That's where I added my two cents.
