Today's Sermon: The Church Of The Armageddon Insurance Policy

Seriously.

There's a church in Montana with a bomb shelter.

A bomb shelter that's been stocked to house 750 people for 49 days. Ready for Armageddon... and it's been this way for decades.

CORWIN SPRINGS, Montana - They're still ready for Armageddon at the Church Universal and Triumphant, a religious sect that for almost two decades has kept a bomb shelter stocked for 750 people deep in a forest near Yellowstone National Park.

Church leader Elizabeth Clare Prophet has been silenced by advanced Alzheimer's disease. And her followers say they've given up the assault rifles and armored vehicles they amassed in the late 1980s — part of a post-nuclear war "re-emergence" plan that brought national notoriety and a federal investigation.

Scrambling to stay current as it reaches its 50th anniversary, the church has transformed itself into a New Age publishing enterprise and spiritual university. But still in the background is its "insurance" against the end — the shelter buried beneath a hillside on the sect's 7,500-acre Royal Teton Ranch.

Insurance?

OK. If you say so, preacher woman.

But wait. The church is changing:

Observers estimate that fewer than 10,000 remain, from a peak of 50,000. Church leaders refuse to give a number, saying membership information is "proprietary."

Those adherents say their mission is no longer to absorb Prophet's message, channeled from on high, but to disseminate her words through books, CDs and online tutorial services.

With spiritual teachings now offered over the Internet, the long-term goal is to expand beyond the church's "physical community" and create an "online community", said its second co-president, Kate Gordon.

"It's time to get in touch with Facebook," she said.

Facebook.

OK.

Thus endeth today's sermon.

Go forth today and ponder the evolution of this church from Armageddon Ready to Online Message Delivery System.

And ask yourself: How far are you willing to go to defend the failed predictions and institutional plans of your own church?

And think about the people who tithed $20 million over the years to build a defense against the god they worship.

I mean it, damn it!

Silly Saturday: "Inflated Interface" or Play Pen?

Pavlov would approve:

ToddlePuff is an inflated interface that incorporates 16 proximity sensors and acts as a game controller for toddlers. It surrounds the child and encourages full body motion. It blocks the toddler's eye sight to create an immersive experience and is wider than a toddler's arm span to encourage movement. An animated children's story is displayed on a screen and told through the speakers. Images of characters from the story are placed on different locations inside the interface. When a character blinks on the screen, the child needs to find the matching image on the surrounding inflated walls and touch it to resume the story. The interaction inside ToddlePuff develops orientation, coordination and speed.

I thought this was a joke.

Until I watched the video.

Have a Silly Saturday!

And don't waste money on inflatable play pens, OK?

Not Your Grandma's Turkey

Hm.

And we wonder why we're all getting fat. (Click the image below to enlarge.)

The traditional Thanksgiving dinner reflects the enormous amount of change that foods and the food systems that produce them have undergone, particularly over the last 50 years. Nearly all varieties of crops have experienced large genetic changes as big agriculture companies hacked their DNA to provide greater hardiness and greater yields. The average pig, turkey, cow and chicken have gotten larger at an astounding rate, and they grow with unprecedented speed. A modern turkey can mature to a given weight at twice the pace of its predecessors.

In comparison with old-school agriculture or single-gene genetic modification, these changes border on breathtaking. Imagine your children reaching full maturity at 10 years old.

Yikes.

By the way, Grandma's turkey had those beautiful colors we all remember from grade school craft projects.

Today's ginormous turkeys are bred to be all white.

And they're artificially inseminated for size.

Take that, Bible thumpers. You're eating genetically modified meat today.

Tee hee.

More Of Paula Deen's Deep Fried Crap

This recipe is seriously whacked... and not for the obvious reason.

If you read carefully, it looks like the sausage (the star of Paula's Smithfield product-endorsement recipe) ends up left on a plate and has no further purpose after it's cooked.

Thanksgiving Recipe: Deep-Fried Stuffing On a Stick

Stuffing:
5 tablespoons butter, divided
1 pound breakfast sausage, bulk
1 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup diced celery
1 bag unseasoned bread cubes, for stuffing
1 sleeve saltine crackers, crushed
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
2 teaspoons ground sage
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 quart chicken stock
4 eggs, beaten
For Frying:
Oil, for frying
2 cups all-purpose flour
Special equipment: 12 wooden ice cream sticks or skewers
Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter.

Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is cooked through. Transfer to a plate, while spooning off the excess grease, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the skillet. Add 4 tablespoons of the butter and melt. Add the onion, carrot and celery and saute until softened. Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, toss together bread cubes, saltines, poultry seasoning, parsley flakes, sage, salt and pepper. Stir the sauteed vegetables into the mixing bowl. Pour in the chicken stock and eggs and toss together. Turn the stuffing out into the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes until the top is golden brown and the juices in the stuffing are bubbling.

Preheat oil in the deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.

Cool the stuffing completely. Cut it into 12 squares. Remove each square from the dish and wrap it around a wooden stick, pressing it onto the stick with your hands. Make the stuffing form a log shape around the popsicle stick, leaving 2-inches of the stick exposed for the handle. This should look somewhat like a lumpy corn dog.

Roll the stick in the flour, coating it well and then shaking off the excess. Gently lower the sticks into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Did you notice that the word sausage was never mentioned again after the word plate?

OK, I know the sausage is supposed to be added to the rest of the stuffing ingredients, but it's just too easy to point out the glaring omission of the star ingredient in a totally crappy recipe.

Tee hee.

They Might Be Mimes

Leave it to DC to hype the (hopefully) coming "Black Friday" (yes, Virginia, it has its own website) shopping day this Friday. Possibly with mimes.

The Metro will open at 4 a.m., there will be extra police officers and portable toilets... and street entertainers to amuse the shoppers waiting to enter the stores at the new Columbia Heights shopping center. (Ahem, Target and Marshall's are the anchor stores. Big Whoop.)

... "the deployment of 30 police officers to the area that day (11/28), the temporary installation of portable toilets (although the exact location was not shared), and street performers to keep waiting shoppers occupied until they could get into the stores, which will be opening early that morning.

DC/USA is expecting people to sleep over Thanksgiving night and anticipates seeing lines that go around the block by the following morning."

I'm not going.

I don't know anyone who is, either.

Because I'd be pissed if there were no mimes to ridicule.

Will Obots Ever Stop Whining?

After 2 years of "Hillary's mean" and "That's racist," you'd think that Obots would be rejoicing. After all, Obama warned them during his victory speech that they wouldn't like some of his early decisions, didn't he? Joe Biden told them that they would have to trust Obama and defend his actions to others, didn't he?

Yes, he did. And Virginia (at Katalusis) says what needs to be said about this far better than I can say it:

Most semi-conscious members of the electorate are aware by this time that Obama’s extreme left base - misogynous to its core - mirrored exactly the fascist tactics of the extreme right in taking down Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary and trashing Sarah Palin in the general election.

Nevertheless, Rothschild details his litany of grievances against President-elect Obama - complete with the usual faux progressive smears against Hillary Clinton and former officials in the Clinton Administration:

“He {Obama} won the crucial Iowa caucuses on the strength of his anti-Iraq War stance, and many progressive peace and justice activists worked hard for him against John McCain.

“So why in the world is he choosing Hillary Clinton to be Secretary of State when she was one of the loudest hawks on Iraq and threatened to obliterate 75 million Iranians?”

I’ll interject a couple of facts here:

Sen. Clinton explained at the time she voted for the Iraq resolution that she did so primarily to give the inspectors time to complete their work. Obama, on the other hand, has repeatedly misled Americans into believing that he actually voted against the resolution when he was not even a member of the US Senate at the time.

There's more. Read the rest.

And remind your Obot friends and family members that they won, and it's time to stop whining.

Today's Sermon: Imagine That!

Imagine...

The Vatican "forgiving" John Lennon for boasting that The Beatles were more popular than Jesus.

Meanwhile, imagine this news story on the same page...

New Book, The Lennon Prophecy, Asks The Question - Did John Lennon Sell His Soul To The Devil?

Did John Lennon sell his soul to the devil in exchange for his worldly musical success with The Beatles and beyond? That’s the theory set forth by Joseph Niezgoda in his soon-to-be released book The Lennon Prophecy, A New Examination of the Death Clues of the Beatles.

The Lennon Prophecy offers a new interpretation of the hidden messages and symbols that have ornamented Beatles mythology for years and offers the view that Lennon joined historical figures such as Mississippi “Crossroads” blues guitarist Robert Johnson, Dr. Johann Faust, Pope Sylvester II among others who entered into a pact with the devil to exchange their souls for earthly successes. Niezgoda dissects and examines the Beatles’ and Lennon’s recordings and album artwork and follows a fascinating and unique trail of sorcery, mysticism, numerology, backward masking, anagrams and literary and theological writings to explain his conclusions.

I imagine the author spent countless hours listening to recordings played backwards while contemplating the religious implications of the walrus, don't you?

Thus endeth today's sermon.

Go forth today and seek meaning in reality-based phenomena.

And stop trying to demonize a rock 'n roll band.

I mean it, damn it!

Good To Know I'm Not The Only One...

... Who thought Ted Kennedy's death bed dangling of the Health Care carrot over Hillary Clinton's head (as she weighs Obama's Secretary Of State offer/leak) was crass.

I’m 150% for Hillary taking SecState, and I don’t care if you disagree! So there! She’ll be fine. She KNOWS the ropes and the palace intrigue better than all of us combined. Don’t fret so much! And if she helps Obama succeed, by god that is great! The last thing we need is for Obama to fail! It’s too twisted to think like that! It’s too Old Testament. It’s too self-centered to think like that. P.S. Ted Kennedy I don’t care if you have a brain tumor, that was an a–h-le thing to do — to all of a sudden dangle health care in front of her to try to prevent her from becoming SecState, after denying it to her all this time. You are contemptible, sir.

Cheesy, Ted.

And what does dangling this Health Care carrot in such a cavalier way suggest about the Dem Party's true commitment to universal healthcare?

And 2008's Biggest Winner Is...

... Joe Lieberman.


Yep, Holy Joe now has the US Senate ace up his sleeve.

With Lieberman in the fold, the Democrats still have an outside shot of a 60-member caucus that could end Republican filibusters. That possibility hinges on yet-to-be decided races in Georgia and Minnesota.

“Lieberman will be a senator until 2012,” said Dautrich. “In the next four years, there will probably be votes on health-care reform legislation and Supreme Court nominees. … The Republicans will try to filibuster and the Democrats will need 60 votes.”

"Ace" Lieberman.

Has a ring to it, doesn't it?

How Much Should I Charge For My Capitol Hill Guest Room?

Ahem.

District and federal officials are preparing for as many as 4 million people for the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama, a crowd that would be three or four times larger than previous big events on the Mall.

What's a fair price for a really nice guest room and private bath, 3 blocks from the Metro and 10 blocks from the US Capitol?

Gay Haters Want Gays To Be More Tolerant

File this under: Perfect Example Of Irony

California Proposition 8 supporters are upset because protesters (and bloggers) are "targeting" them by calling for boycotts...

Some Proposition 8 supporters say a minority of protesters have gone too far by targeting individuals. Opponents of the measure have called for a boycott of the California Musical Theatre after revelations that artistic director Scott Eckern, a Mormon, donated $1,000 to the Yes on 8 Campaign. Members of his church played a significant role in the campaign.

"It's disheartening that he is being singled out," said Lisa West, spokeswoman for the church in the Sacramento area. "We had hoped there would be more tolerance for different viewpoints."

Seriously.

You can't make this crap up.

It writes itself.

Don't want to be treated sans tolerance?

Stop treating others like second-class citizens, you dipshits.

By the way, Mr. Eckern just resigned, leaving one less dipshit to boycott.

Oh, The Irony! Women Will Decide The Election Today

In an election year that has seen gender totally ignored (trans. berated, denigrated, and politically destroyed)...

Women Are Majority of Undecided Voters; Gender Gap Persists in National and State Polls

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., Oct. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Women are a
majority of undecided voters in the 2008 presidential race, as they were in
past elections, according to the Center for American Women and Politics
(CAWP). For example, a new poll from the Pew Research Center for the People
and the Press, conducted two weeks before election day, finds that women
are 60 percent of all undecided registered voters and 61 percent of
undecided registered white voters. The Pew poll is the only recent poll
with a large enough sample to allow a meaningful breakdown of undecided
voters by gender and race.

Overall, 8 percent of those polled by Pew are undecided, with fewer
non-white than white registered voters having not yet chosen a candidate.
Six percent of non-white voters overall and 4 percent of African-American
voters are undecided; however, the numbers within these groups are too
small to analyze gender differences. Among whites, 10 percent of women and
7 percent of men have not yet made choices in the presidential race.

How will it end?

Will women break for Obama, or will they go all mavericky for McCain?

My prediction: undecided women --in states where undecided voters matter today-- will make their decisions based on a single issue, like the Supreme Court or National Security.

Time will tell.

Tick. Tock.

Today's Sermon: Barabbas Won The Popular Vote

Tuesday night, keep your eye on voters in Colorado, Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Nevada, (possibly New Mexico) and Virginia. They're not all convinced that THE ONE is really the one for them.

Those particular voters are like the ocean: pretty to look at and dream about; but you wouldn't want to turn your back on them.

Thus endeth today's sermon.

Go forth today and consider how judicial bodies have managed to rewrite recent history: we all know that Al Gore won Florida, and John Kerry won Ohio; however, certified vote totals now "prove" that Li'l Bush won the popular and electoral votes in both states.

And ask yourself: who's playing the role of Li'l Bush this year?

Just think about it.
