First The Sputnik Forces broke the ankle of Sotomayor, Obama's nominee to our Supreme Count. Then The Sputnik Forces broke the elbow of Obama's Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and she even had to have surgery on it. Next The Sputnik Forces crashed those two subway trains in Washington DC. And I just heard that now The Sputnik Forces murdering the singer Michael Jackson with a heart attack and he was only 50 years old. What next?(added by Feòrag, 26th June 2009.)
While everybody is being distracted by the phony CIA propaganda coming out of Iran and the kook the runs North Korea, some unsavory group delivered a TRIAD OF DEATH by us one more time!! We should have been ready and we would have been ready, but we were distracted, once again!!That last line leaves me suspicious that someone is taking the piss. (added by Feòrag, 26th June 2009.)
Of course I am referring to Ed McMahon, Farah Fawcett and Micheal Jackson. Simply put, WHAT did they know and who were they going to TELL and WHY now! There has to be a thread running here, and it is up to US to untangle this incredible WEB of DECEIT. We are up to the task because if we fail here, we can expect another TRAID of DEATH!!
The end of Kodachrome MAY hold a clue!!

There can be no doubt that the Freeeeeeeeeeak gang who run the United States murdered Michael Jackson.This one has to be read! (added by Feòrag, 29th June 2009.)
That Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett both died in the last 48 hours is shocking news to many, but it's not nearly as surprising as the fact that they were both killed by Big Pharma's toxic drugs.This hypothesis is explained further here, and the same publication also refers to a lawsuit against everyone which mentions Michael Jackson.

I saw the video in HD, the motherfacker did move, he sat up a little, then laid down like he was adjusting himself to get more comfortable..This post refers to a video on YouTube which purports to show him moving. I can't see it myself. It also brings in one of today's more interesting news stories—that the Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church plans to unveil the Ark of the Covenant. You can read a summary of World Nut Daily's conspiracy theories surrounding that over at Bartholomew's Notes on Religion (added by Feòrag, 26th June 2009.)
Holy shit did this guy fake his death??
It is plausible given his connection to the Presley family that he could fake his won death to escape his legal and financial problems like his former father-in-law.
I smell a rat here and I Know he is alive.
soon all the truths will be known...
When the Ark is revealed, it will be used to raise him to life.
In a 1994 issue of Weekly World News, it was predicted that superstar Michael Jackson was so heartsick with the nightmare his troubled life had become, he would fake his own death – just like Elvis!...(added by Feòrag, after Red Wolf pointed it out, 26th June 2009.)
The cover story will be that Michael Jackson suffered a fatal heart attack while riding his Ferris wheel. Jackson’s ‘remains’ will be cremated and his ‘ashes’ will be scattered on the grounds of his estate,he explains.
Just today, there has been a chilling discovery at "Michael Jackson's" Neverland Ranch. Investigators have uncovered a corpse buried just inches beneath the train tracks that run across the ranch. Supposedly, through dental record examinations as well as DNA tests there has been a confirmation that the corpse found belongs to the real Michael Jackson.(added by Feòrag, 1st July 2009.)
They stated that the state of decomposition leads them to believe that Michael died around the time that his album "Bad" was released.
He said the organisation was takingcare and concernover appropriate packaging for the wafer, which is no more than a millimetre thick, to ensure it remained intact on arrival, before adding that anyone - including atheists and even satanists - could avail themselves of the service.Jesus did not make these distinctions. He gave himself to anyone and everyone. It makes no difference, the body of Christ is redeeming.
Would that last sentence be a health claim? Enquiring minds want to know whether the Open Episcopal Church believes in transubstantiation, as that surely affects the usefulness of the cracker for shenanigans?

Will the Antichrist be a homosexual?... While the word homosexual
is not in the Bible, the behavior of those who practice homosexuality, and God’s estimation of them, very definitely is. When the word came into existence I cannot tell you, but what we can say for sure is that when Noah Webster published his first dictionary in 1828, it was not included. This means that homosexuality is a modern word invented to replace the word Noah Webster did include, sodomy, defined as a crime against nature. This is historical revisionism in action.
It follows, therefore, that heterosexual
, which is also not in the Bible, is another modern word invented to replace some other word—gomorrahry
, pehaps?
Interestingly, the word homosexual
is so beloved of fundie types, that I use it as a search term when I'm specifically looking for religious anti-gay hate speech. No-one else seems to use it these days.

They have also added their own unique flavour of hate into the mix:

EastEnders is to tackle one of the last taboos left in soap, with a storyline featuring a Muslim character embarking on a gay love affair.
MediaGuardian.co.uk can reveal that the plot, which will hit screens in mid-June, will see Syed Masood, a Muslim property developer with a girlfriend who arrived in Albert Square six weeks ago, fall for openly gay Christian Clarke. The pair will share an on-screen kiss.
The BBC has billed the storyline as atraditional love affair, albeit with a modern multicultural twist.
Extra bonus points if the Daily Mail declares this to be explicit gay sex
, or similar.

Others don't like the idea that we evolved at all, and in their comments demonstrate that they never got past the single-celled stage:
We are all descended from Adam and Eve, who were most probably had brown skin and were from the middle east no more than 10,000 years ago.

]]>The girl in the Starbucks logo is Queen Esther,he insisted.This queen is Queen of the Jews.
And the crown she wears?
This is the crown of the Kingdom of Persia. This girl you see is Esther, Queen of the Jews in Persia....
Can you believe that in Mecca, Medina, Cairo, Damascus, Kuwait and all over the Islamic world hangs the picture of beautiful Queen Esther with a crown on her head and we buy her products?exclaimed Higazi.It is inconceivable.
The translation is provided by MEMRI, a not-exactly-neutral source.
It's not only Muslim bampots who take issue with the Starbucks logo. A year or so ago, to promote a limited edition blend, they returned to their original logo, on which the mermaid has nipples. Obviously something possessed by nearly all mammals is clearly obscene, and a really dubious sounding Christian group objected:
A San Diego-based Christian group, The Resistance, has already called on its 3,000 members to boycott the chain, whose mass expansion has threatened to turn its once hip coffee lounges into McDonald's-style fast-food outlets.
The Starbucks logo has a naked woman on it with her legs spread like a prostitute,said Mark Dice, the group's founder.Need I say more? The company might as well call itself Slutbucks.
I'm just checking now that that article wasn't dated April 1st. The Pike Place blend turned out to be much nicer than Starbucks' standard blend, in that it was actually drinkable.
There are, of course, other bampots out there who see different conspiracies in the logo. Some think she is Lillith; others have noticed that it's a mermaid (or a siren) and take this as evidence that the whole chain is pagan, and some the pagan deity as Dagon, which I thought came from the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft. I have yet to find anyone pointing out that her crown includes a five-pointed star, which is obviously a Satanic symbol. Oops, no. I take that back, though this is a more generically New Age interpretation. Apparently, she is, in fact Isis.
On her head she wears a crown, seemingly constructed from acut-upsphere, or globe, and featuring, in a central position, a five-pointed star or pentagram. The pentagram with a single point facing upwards represents the world of Spirit, the upper point, as having dominion over the four elements, the four lower points. The pentagram drawn in this manner, like the number 5 itself, is the symbol of spiritual Man, the KaballisticMicrocosm.The cut-up globe which surrounds the five-pointed star again symbolizes again the Macrocosm - the world. This crown could therefore be said to represent the presence of spirit hidden in worldly desire, or, alternately, spiritually-developed mankind emerging triumphant from a contorted and destructive global situation.
I'm sure there will be something out there on the internet insisting it's a Satanic star, but my Google-fu is not strong today.
The chain has been victim to some more serious racist conspiracy theories, too. The company's boss, Howard Schultz, is Jewish which, to some, means they obviously support Israel's actions, and rumours have circulated that the company helps finance those actions. The rumour has been helped along by a fake letter:
But the rumours of an Israeli connection persist, bolstered by a 2006 letter, purportedly signed by Schultz, that has been floating around the Internet for several years. In it, Schultz supposedly admits to bankrolling the Jewish state with hundreds of millions of dollars annually. The letter has been debunked as a hoax, but the rumours rage on, nonetheless.
Starbucks has not even operated in Israel for six years, but the fraudulent nature of the rumour didn't stop some thugs vandalising two Starbucks shops in London last January.

Academics at the London School of Economics and the Institute of Education, both part of the University of London, found no proof that providing parents with the choice of a religious secondary school either raised results or helped drive up standards in other local schools.
The research suggests that government policies to promote a market in education - by promising parents a choice of school in the belief that the competition for children will improve standards - only create a more socially fragmented system.
The paper concludes that there is "significant evidence that religious schools are associated with higher levels of pupil sorting across schools, but no evidence that competition from faith schools raises area-wide pupil attainment".
Despite this, the government still seems to think it's a good idea, yet do not ask themselves why they thought a law against incitement to religious hatred was necessary.

]]>A row broke out at George Tomlinson primary school in Waltham Forest, north-east London, earlier this month when some parents pulled their children out of lessons planned for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender history month. The school used books on homosexual relationships, in one case between two male penguins.
Members of the Westboro Baptist church in Topeka, Kansas – which has been the subject of a Louis Theroux television exposé – say they will picket the school next Friday afternoon.
Odds on, they're bullshitting to get attention, but we can dream of seeing them led away in chains and chucked into a detention centre before being deported on a plane chartered from Ryanair and full of drunk football fans.
What I don't understand is why Phelps is not allowed to enter the country, but another preacher of hate, with pretty much identical views on homosexuality, has been invited to visit the UK by the government.

Clonehenge is a blog with a mission:
Encouraged by an internet acquaintance of like mind, we began to search online for Stonehenge references and replicas. It was casual at first–just for laughs–a butter henge here, some biscuit henges there, and of course the well known ones like car henge and fridge henge and the modern stone “henges” scattered about the States. But after a bit the sheer number of ersatz henges [we use the word henge here, not in the true sense of a circular earthwork mound with a ditch, but in the sense that it is commonly if mistakenly understood, as a stone circle, often with lintels over some pairs of stones] filled us with a kind of horror-filled joy, and we decided something must be done.
Clonehenge is that something. It is a celebration of those first builders who erected Stonehenge as we understand it today, whose idea has turned out to be the ancestor of all icons, so powerful in image that five thousand years later people feel compelled to emulate their achievement, often in the most unlikely places and unsuitable media.
It is also a celebration of the ingenuity and mad genius of those people today who decide, usually for no reason except fun and the challenge, to make Stonehenges out of anything they can lay their hands on. Hurray for the builders!
They have already found most, though not all, of the usual suspects. The photograph is of one of my own creations, Beerhenge, made from two cans of Yebisu and a hip flask. As an added bonus that is, indeed, the summer solstice sunrise.
]]>When you come across the terms "Darwinism" or "Darwinists", take heed. True scientists rarely use these terms, and instead opt for "evolution" and "biologists", respectively. When evolution is described as a "blind, random, undirected process", be warned. While genetic mutations may be random, natural selection is not. When cells are described as "astonishingly complex molecular machines", it is generally by breathless supporters of ID who take the metaphor literally and assume that such a "machine" requires an "engineer". If an author wishes for "academic freedom", it is usually ID code for "the acceptance of creationism".
In related news, 80% of the UK population disagree with creationism.
