    Tucker Carlson: Wiccan lottery winner = government subsidation of Satanism

     Here's my nominee for Wanker of the Day. A Wiccan wins big in the lottery, says he attributes the win to Wiccan Magic and that he's going to use his winnings to quit his job and teach Wicca full time. Now, if a winner has attributed his winnings to Jesus and said that he was going to use his winnings to quit his job and teach Christianity, everyone would talk about how wonderful what he's doing is - but I can't imagine any pundit or politician claiming that its an example of the government subsidizing Christianity, eh? And, of course, if I understand how lotteries work, the government isn't subsidizing ANYTHING. The whole point of government run lotteries is for the state to be able to raise money - usually to be used in funding education and such. Its all the other lottery players who are "subsidizing" the winners (if you want to put it that way.) Anyway, just had to share that particular crock of crap. What a f*#^!ng donkey!

     The article at TPMCafe.com about this incident notes that the group Operation Save America , and right wing anti-abortion group - has claimed responsibility for the interuption and issued a press release (which is available at TMPCafe.com) condemning the Senators for not "standing up for God" and claimed that the Senate Chamber has been "violated" by a "false" Hindu God. In the video, however, you can hear most of the chaplain's prayer, and in it, he prays that, "As we meditate on the transcendent glory of the Divine Supreme who is inside the heart of the earth, inside the light of the sky, and inside the soul of heaven, may he stimulate and illuminate our minds, lead us from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light..." (I'm running out of space here, so I'll post the rest of my thoughts on my blog at [url=http://thorswitch.livejournal.com

    The Top Dozen Religions of the World

     I'm amazed that a large portion of the world is Islam. Obviously, there may be drastic implications of a global, Islamic Jihad, which is why peace must be fostered among ALL religions. Unfortunately, Islamic extremists believe our occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan is a threat/war against Islam. America, on the other hand, can't even agree on what the fuck the meaning behind our occupation is.
