Some ::MIGHTY FIST SHAKING:: stories for you all

I'd rather go to any and every Hell than go to Mormon heaven. (h/t newredshoes)

Seriously, Mormons: knock that shit off. You're officially on notice that if you try to baptize any more people posthumously, against their will, I will dig up Joseph Smith's corpse and stomp it into little bits, which I will then feed to a pig, whose shit I will then press into communion wafers and sell to you. You want to eat your ancestors, go ahead. Leave everyone else's the fuck alone.

Note to Judeo-Christianity: All your religions are as stupid as this one.

If you don't want your park littered with religiosity, DON'T START BY PUTTING THAT SHIT THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. They can't have a leg to stand on, right? Even Evil!SCOTUS as we currently have must recognize that this is bullshit...right?

Goodbye Southern Strategy?

I doubt it. These things go in cycles, and we'll have maybe forty years of progressive policies if the trends are to be believed, and then the South will have a resurgence. (It always rises again, as we know.) It won't be white, though it will probably still be conservative. However, if we are so blessed as to have even four years of not having to listen to Suh-thuh-ners dictate how the rest of us are going to hell for not hating people and loving Jeebus enough, that's a welcome relief.

Until it mentioned that Summum was founded in 1975, I figured it was a new varient of Pastafarianism or the like. If I had a mini-cult handy, I'd totally do something like this just to force a SCOTUS ruling that would, presumably, get rid of the Ten Commandments monolith.

I think the continued viability of the Southern Strategy will be determined by Obama's effectiveness and popularity over the next three years. His winning a second term with similar margins would be the confirmation of the trend, but I wouldn't call it before that.

Nothing is certain yet re: the South, absolutely. I love trying to extrapolate upon the future after one election that hasn't even seen any of the winners go to power yet.

I wonder if Scientology could be tricked into challenging Ten Commandments statues? I mean, surely, we could use a statute of their alien overlords or something...

Given that the Church of Scientology has shown themselves willing to sue anybody over anything, that could probably be arranged. And no matter who loses the case, we win!

Which is why I proposed Scientology in the first place: I want them to waste their money on this and possibly help us win out against Bible-thumpers with no Constitutional background. If they don't, well, at least they wasted their money!
