babble is rabble.ca's discussion board but it's much more than that: it's an online community for folks who just won't shut up. It's a place to tell each other — and the world — what's up with our work and campaigns.

Get behind me Satan.
I already am my friend. BWAHAHAHAHA!
We can only hope that Dawkins will follow up at some point with 'The Devil Delusion."
...and here I always thought Dawkins was a delusion. I look forward to debating him someday.
Sooner rather than later, I think.
Ok Devil, you know the drill.............
EXORCIZO te, immundíssime spíritus, omnis incúrsio adversárii, omne phantasma, omnis légio, in nómine Dómini nostri Jesu Christi eradicáre, et effugáre ab hoc plásmate Dei . Ipse tibi ímperat, qui te de supérnis cæaelórum in inferióra terræ demérgi præcépit. Ipse tibi ímperat, qui mari, ventis et tempestátibus imperávit. Audi ergo, et time, sátana, inimice fidei, hostis géneris humáni, mortis addúctor, vitæ raptor, justítiæ declinátor, malórum radix, fomes vitiórum, sedúctor hóminum, próditur géntium, incitátor invídiæ, origo avaritiæ, causa discórdiæ, excitátor dolórum: quid stas, et resistis, cum scias, Christum Dóminum vias tuas pérdere? Illum métue, qui in Isaac immolátus est, in Joseph venúndatus, in agno occísus, in hómine crucifixus, deinde inférni triumphátor fuit. Sequentes crucis fiat in fronte obsessi. Recéde ergo in nómine Patris , et Fílii , et Spíritus Sancti: da locum Spirítui Sancto, per hoc signum sanctæ Crucis Jesu Christi Dómini nostri: Qui cum Patre et eódem Spíritu Sancto vivit et regnat Deus, per ómnia sæcula sæculórum.
oh shi... *vanishes in a puff of sulphurous smoke*
Well it seems to have turned into a party thread. Perhaps this will sober things up a little.
Well thanks for that rather grounding post. All I can say as someone who likes to think of themselves as progressive, is that sometimes I just really fucking despair. It might be part of why I don't get into the really gravits threads as much as I used to. The other side is smart, well resourced, and for now owns the public discourse. I really see the advent of a North America wide Cromwellian Theocracy.
Wow. That link is despair-inducing, for sure.
Yeah, way to go bagkitty. In one fell swoop, you've managed to get oldgoat to say fuck, call us stu...pid, and admit he's the devil.
So basically, you are saying I am a bit of a buzzkill? Okay, I can live with that.
Thanks to oldgoat for taking the time to explore the link... sorry that your eyes had to see that, but it does encourage me slightly that someone actually made the effort. There are reasons the SPLC has seen fit to designate organizations like the American Family Association hate groups.
The link I posted in #38 is no longer up on the AFA website, I guess it was even to vile for them (or is it that it was simply inexpedient).
JMG has a posting on it and its history (see here)
