Christian engineering? What the fuck is christian engineering? "We don't need rebar for that bridge, we have faith it won't fall down."?


Don't ask me.

And they talk about Obama trying to indoctrinate people.

What does the Siberian famine have to do with that crazy old bastard Pat Robertson?

I think we should be told.


Because it is all a diversion from biggotry and racism. Just like all the other comments defending Limbaugh and Robertson.

Indeed. And his brother Anal  had an even WORSE time at school.  (Maybe references to what became the "Chastity Pledge" movement, where girls make a written pact with their fathers to remain virgins.  And which sometimes develops into the Anything But Club.)

"Universities" indeed.  And they're accredited.

Then there are the unaccredited ones.  Like the one where Kent Hovind (DoctorDino himself) got his PhD.  Cost him $1899.  His "doctoral dissertation", locked away until recently, is hilarious.  I guess he was given a format and told to start with an introduction.  His dissertation intro begins "Hello. My name is Kent Hovind. I live in Pensacola Florida"

He ran a small tacky dinosaur adventure park (creationist slant; Dinosaurs & people together; precursor of Ken Hamm's deluxe version Creation Museum in, I think, Kentucky).  He did various other evangelical stuff.  And sold folks a course on how to pay no taxes.  (Hey, if he can get his diploma by mail, why shouldn't he also sell correspondence courses?)

How to pay no taxes? Step one, Declare your home a church.  I'm sure there was more to it, though.

And he practiced what he preached.  The DinoPark was a church.  The staff were "clergy" or "missionaries".  Just a whole BUNCHA tax not gettin paid.

He's now about half way thru a 10 year prison sentence.  Still kneels to Jesus every day (pronounced, in this case, Hayzoose).  Still god-fearing; now IRS-fearing too.

His sons are carrying on the family bible thumping business.  Pretty sure they've closed down the Tax Abatement division.  On YouTube, search for Hovind, Creation Minute, Stupidity Minute, etc.

The Bush admin hired an inordinate number of lawyers, many in the Justice Dept, from Liberty, ORU or some other "Praise U"

(Praise U.  Not bad at all.  Just made it up a minute ago.)

A lot of those students ended up working in the Green Zone, with other consideration given to qualifications.  Same with young adults who'd worked on Republican campaigns or Evangelical organizations.

LonDom, lolol, too funny! God, it seems like "everyone" has some kind of "degree" these days! I didn't know you needed a degree to be a bartender, waitress or to work at Lowe's.
I never had one 'till I was 40 after I got out of the US Coast Guard and I was like, "yeah,...so?" Silly me! Now you can get them online. Or buy phoney ones.
I bet my buddy Jethro Bodine could get one these days; "Hey Granny! Uncle Jed! Ya'll notice anything "differant" about me?"
"Why no Jethro, cain't say that I can."
"Well I's college educated now, yup, you're looking at a brandnew college grad-u-ate!"
"Granny you better put on some vittles, Jethro's going to be doing a LOT more cypherin' down by the cee-ment pond!"
I'm 59 and when I grew up the only people around me that had degrees were the doctors and the lawyers. Even bank presidents were proud of "working their way up from cashier." Now everyone has one and they're all too smart to sweep the floor. ("Only psychology majors are qualified to sweep floors!")
Lon, I bet I could start my own college and people would pay big money to go. I could call it "The Jethro Bodine School of Economics" (We specializes in Cypherin'!)
I think it's funny as hell that those tv preachers with bad haircuts started "Universities!"
It must be like a Three Stooges movie walking through those hallways; "Dr Fine! Dr Howard! Dr. Fine!" Everyone's a "Doctor!" lol
I read somewhere once that they even have "degrees" for "learning impaired people!" Oh? Like high school dropouts? Or Ricky the retard who can't tie his shoes yet? I wonder if it says that on their degree certificates? "LEARNING IMPAIRED!" "Hey!... Did you try to *erase* something on that degree?" "What's that say under there?" "Nuffin! Nuffin! You fuckin' shithead, lemme alone!" "I want my candy bar!"
I was thinking about taking a course in creative writing last year and inquired about it to a few places and for the next six months I got letters, e-mails and phone calls from dozens of schools!
You know how Levi Strauss got rich selling overalls to the gold minors? That's how this works, you sell diplomas or degrees to the masses with the promise of a bright "future" and when they graduate,...........FUCK EM!!! Fuck em up the ass, who cares about them when we have,... next years su,..students comming in with cash from Mom and Pop and whatever money we can screw the govt out of! "Go fuck yourself "you want your money back!" "Let me go ask my manager, I mean burser, ...FUCK YOU you ain't getting it! Now go grovel for a job at Starbucks, that's where our placement office "placed" you.
That's how this works, the colleges are "Levi Strauss" and the students, Goldminers! Only the students are the ones being *mined* and they're too stupid to know it! What a racket! Why didn't I think of that!
"You bastards, see if I ever give money to the alumni assoc!"
"Ha! Fuck you, we don't have one, "un-needed expenses!"
"You won't be able to afford it anyway on your Starbucks wages! Ha, Ha!
"What's this on my degree! It says, "LEARNING IMPAIRED!"
"You still owe us $30k! Want to get it off?"
"This is called "higher education."

Pat missed most of the book.... except Genesis and Revelations... but the parts where Jesus spoke, he completely skipped those and went from the beginning  to the end of the book... kinda like those people who read the first chapter of a novel and then skip to the last couple of pages.. hence women are evil strumpets that need men to control them because we caused Adam to fall from grace and we will all surely die... and then you get how this will happen at the end of days...

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Just an addition to what Jeff wrote.

And no, Pat Robertson doesn't get it.

And the Devil responds....

Dear Pat Robertson,

I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out. And you make God look like a big mean bully who kicks people when they are down, so I'm all over that action.

But when you say that Haiti has made a pact with me, it is totally humiliating. I may be evil incarnate, but I'm no welcher. The way you put it, making a deal with me leaves folks desperate and impoverished.
Sure, in the afterlife, but when I strike bargains with people, they first get something here on earth -- glamour, beauty, talent, wealth, fame, glory, a golden fiddle. Those Haitians have nothing, and I mean nothing. And that was before the earthquake. Haven't you seen "Crossroads"? Or "Damn Yankees"?
If I had a thing going with Haiti, there'd be lots of banks, skyscrapers, SUVs, exclusive night clubs, Botox -- that kind of thing. An 80 percent poverty rate is so not my style. Nothing against it -- I'm just saying: Not how I roll.
You're doing great work, Pat, and I don't want to clip your wings -- just, come on, you're making me look bad. And not the good kind of bad. Keep blaming God. That's working. But leave me out of it, please. Or we may need to renegotiate your own contract.
Best, Satan

Well, that's the problem with the Democrats in a nutshell, isn't it? They'll have anybody so long as they're not a Republican. If there was more of a consensus among the party, maybe the Republicans wouldn't have been able to run them so ragged over this healthcare bill...


LaRouche tried to campaign as a Democrat but the Democratic National Committee refused to recognize his candidacy, so he formed his own group called the National Democratic Policy Committee which was never acknowledged as an official part of the Democratic Party.


I see. Thank you. (It's sixteen years since I took my American studies degree and I'm no longer up to speed on all of your bizarre mindfuck political system...)
