Blogroach

Hey! I got my first Blogroach! I must be in the big time now, baby!

Some bigoted hatemonger posted a comment recently, equating Jerry Falwell with Osama bin Laden, and suggesting that abortion-clinic bombers--and other "people like Falwell"--were only different in the "magnitude" of people they've killed.

As any rational person knows, you could could the number of people killed in abortion clinics by bombers and gunmen in the last decade on your hands. As any rational person also knows, you could count the number of such people killed by Jerry Falwell and his followers on one hand, with five fingers to spare. (To save our blogroach from having to think too hard, let me explain that this means ZERO.)

Our blogroach also tells fairytales (or are they psychotic delusions? I can't tell.) about how he was once a member of a fundamentalist Christian group that plotted to take over the government so they could mandate prayer in the schools and suspend children who wouldn't cooperate, and possibly jail their parents.

Listen you little vermin, whoever you are: you're no better than a member of the KKK. Spout your brand of hatred and religious intolerance elsewhere--I will not give you a forum here. Period. Also do me a favor and tell your friends.

He might have been telling the truth if he was a member of one of the Christian Reconstruction groups.

Nonetheless, there were (and are) few of them, and they seem to have decided to pursue their agenda (since the country didn't fall into chaos on 1/1/2000 and give them an opening) politically.

So I don't see them as anywhere near equivalent to the Islamists.
