AdamSmith Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Dept. of Can't Make This Stuff Up... Fox News Guest: The Age of Enlightenment Led ‘Down the Dark Path to the Holocaust’ posted by DeadState May 2, 2013 Appearing on Fox & Friends, Penny Nance, the CEO of Concerned Woman for America, launched into a critique of President Obama’s transportation nominee Anthony Foxx, making the bizarre claim that his declaration of a National Day of Reason was reminiscent of events that led to the Holocaust. To coincide with Thursday’s National Day of Prayer, Foxx (the mayor of Charlotte, North Carolina and Obama’s pick to head the Department of Transportation) issued a proclamation for the National Day of Reason in his city. Penny Nance found much to criticize in Foxx’s very public endorsement of the Constitution’s requirement of a separation between church and state. “You know, G. K. Chesterton said that the Doctrine of Original Sin is the only one which we have 3,000 years of empirical evidence to back up. Clearly, we need faith as a component and it’s just silly for us to say otherwise,” she said. Nance even went to attack the The Age of Enlightenment and Reason, saying that it “gave way to moral relativism, and moral relativism is what led us all the way down the dark path to the Holocaust.” Foxx has endorsed the National Day of Reason for two years in a row now. “The application of reason, more than any other means, has proven to offer hope for human survival on Earth,” his proclamation read.

AdamSmith Posted June 30, 2013 Author Posted June 30, 2013 In like vein... Pat Robertson: ‘Sophisticated’ Americans are Less Likely to Experience Miracles posted by DeadState April 2, 2013 inShare This Monday, televangelist Pat Robertson told his viewers that “sophisticated” Americans are less likely to experience divine miracles because they are prone to believe in more scientifically-based things. On his CBN show The 700 Club, Robertson responded to a viewer who asked why “amazing miracles happen with great frequency in places like Africa” and not here in the United States. “People overseas didn’t go to Ivy League schools,” Robertson replied. “We’re so sophisticated, we think we’ve got everything figured out. We know about evolution, we know about Darwin, we know about all these things that says God isn’t real.” “We have been inundated with skepticism and secularism,” he went on to say. “And overseas, they’re simple, humble. You tell them God loves them and they say, ‘Okay, he loves me.’ You say God will do miracles and they say, ‘Okay, we believe him.’” Watch The 700 Club segment in the video below.

TotallyOz Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Is there a legal means to require groups like Nancy's group to be required to put the title "Batshit Crazy" before their name before any public appearances? AdamSmith 1 Quote
