In the old days, it was all pretty clear. Anyone who had leanings towards pederasty or homosexuality became a priest and thereafter what went on under the robe stayed under the robe. It’s not like they were going to breed and propagate the queer species gentically.

These days it’s all a lot more complicated. The fire and brimstone lot in the States have it in for those with an eye for fashion and interior design.

This just makes my head explode. I can’t even begin to analyse the twisted, broken logic contained therein.

What jumps up out at me though is maybe these people should just stop interfering in other people’s lives? No-one has elected them to any kind of political authority, indeed those they had in power just had their asses kicked in the elections.

Anyhow, what I’m leading up to with all this incredulity is the awesomeness of their belief that arse-banditry can be cured.

Riiiight. I’m still boggling. But the lovely thing is that the perpetrators of this are also now caught up in their own stupidity. Such is the man’s weakness he continues in the lie rather than breaking out and saying: “actually, I quite like Judy Garland, you people just have your heads up your asses”.

What a munchkin.

One of my litmus tests for cockbucketworthiness (great word) is that it’s localised. Anything that isn’t particularly global is the sure sign that it’s made up and by definition, bonkers. Good examples of this are the MMR crap in the UK and fundamentalist delusions in the US like creationism or better still “The Rapture”. What kind of awesome made up bollocks is that?

The beauty of creationism is that it layers a layer of denial, six days vs. a few billion years, over a wider delusion, that stuff was consciously made rather than just happened.

So now, courtesy of the awesomely curmudgeonly-in-a-good-way PZ Meyers we have a teacher in the US being legally castigated for describing creationism as “religious, superstitious nonsense”. Well good for the teacher. But alas, the law defends the rights of the deluded over and above what I always understood as the sacrosanct freedom of speech.

Screw you hippy. Creationism, indeed all religion is superstitious nonesense and the judge in this case is well deserving of being nominated as a bucket of cock.

Melanie Phillips in the Spectator misses the point spectacularly in this piece. If comparing two idiocies is meant to give credence to at least one of them then she’s failed.

Bucket rating 4/5.
