Everything you wanted to know about Islam, but were called a racist for asking.

Seriously...like, EVERYTHING. This one post will take a couple of days to read thoroughly, when you visit the links. This is one very busy and detail-oriented guy.

"Tolerance" Jiu-Jitsu

We here at "Weird & Pissed Off" do hereby present Mr. Greg Gutfeld with the first-ever W&PO Award For Extreme Cleverness.

In a truly inspired application of Alinsky's Fourth Rule, he is forcing the Dhimmi Left to confront their own intolerance...by opening a Muslim-friendly gay bar right next door. And, apparently, he's serious.

Not an idea that would play well with Christians or Jews vis-a-vis property adjacent to a church or temple, but oh well: If we’re going to celebrate tolerance regardless of the sensitivities of the surrounding area, let’s celebrate! And the best part? Because, as we’ve been assured many times, the “Park51″ cultural center will be a model of moderation, gay Muslim men don’t have to worry about being seen entering Gut’s establishment. Flaunt it all you want, fellas; you’re in Moderate Town, U.S.A., on that block. I look forward to the congratulatory Mike Bloomberg press conference.

You can't make this stuff up.

In Multnomah County(OR), the Department of Health shuts down a 7-year-old girl's lemonade stand and demands a $120 license fee.

I'm not kidding.

If this doesn't bring home the reason why America is becoming increasingly anti-government, I think you're beyond hope.

The evolution of artificial intelligence

Yes, really.

This shows a lot of promise. Instead of the 'let's try to program an AI,' it's a 'let an AI evolve' method. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense--that's how we homo sapiens acquired our intelligence(now, if we'd only use it occasionally!).

I guarantee the whole concept of this experiment will spark a brand new holy war between Creationists and Evolutionists. Well, debate is a good thing. But if the Avidians start inquiring as to the whereabouts of Sarah Connor, I'm going to demand the plug be pulled post haste.

Bigots and h8rs, that's us.

Here's part of a report from an openly gay man at the recent Philadelphia Tea Party:

I have never been embraced or appreciated in the gay community for believing in limited government, the Constitution, and personal liberty for all persons.

Why is this important? Well, there are several reasons but the simple fact that it is easier for me to be gay around conservatives, than it is to be conservative around gays, is a very telling dynamic in showing how accepting conservatives are of everybody, regardless of race, sexual orientation, economic status, or political affiliation. Conservatives are independent patriotic individuals. As long as you agree with the basic platform of constitutional government, individual liberty’s, and a high sense of morality, then they welcome you with open hearts and arms.

(Emphasis mine.) But you'd never know this from the continued lies of the LameStream Media. Go thou forth and read the rest of the post at GayPatriot.

Pose nude for our Lords and Masters...

...whether you like it or not. The Geek With A .45 sounds off on the nature of those new millimeter-wave airport body scanners.

Strip searches are intrusive not because they require the removal of clothing, but because they force the revelation of that which is ordinarily our prerogative to withhold.

Because of this, it is a well settled matter of law that they can only be performed under certain conditions, (on the order of entering prison, for example) and flight boarding is not one of them.

The fact that technologically assisted strip searches can now be done in bulk, without the removal of clothing is entirely immaterial to that point, and the entire matter is a power grab, attempting to create a precedent for mass strip searches of the public.

The whole thing, with picture, HERE.

Jim Goad regarding JournoList

For those of you who don't know who Jim Goad is, he's a bit of an underground celebrity. (Translation: 'Political Correctness' is something he heard about once, then wiped his butt with and ignored from that moment on.) His writing is harsh, brutal, vividly descriptive, and leaves no sacred cow undefiled. He offends everyone. As in every single person on Earth and probably still-undiscovered civilizations somewhere in the Andromeda Galaxy. If he hasn't offended you yet, wait for it.

But writing with a total "I don't give a %&*#" attitude is the best way to get to the heart of the matter. Observe Mr. Goad's analytical stylings here:

I’m aware that one would have to hear voices, wear a tinfoil hat, drink moonshine, live in a trailer, and have been bad-touched by aliens at least once in their life to so much as suggest a leftist bias exists in mainstream American journalism.

Warning: Harsh Language. But well worth the read. Seriously, does this paragraph not get right to the point?

Part of the reason I ceased identifying as a leftist about twenty years ago is because it became impossible to ignore the unapologetically infantile tantrum-throwing and witch-hunting bloodlust that always seemed to lurk beneath leftism’s fake-ass shield of compassionate humanism. That, and the fact that most of its spokespeeps were affluent Caucasians who for some reason fancied themselves as champions of “the people” despite the fact that the middle-class, working-class, and lumpenproletarian whites who actually constitute the statistical bulk of “the people” are the incessant targets of their elitist scorn and derision.

I understand perfectly, Mr. Goad. It just took me a little longer to figure it out.

I've never met the man. But this video tells me all I need to know about him.



Well said, sir. These are the same reasons I turned hard Right.

On evangelizing

I cannot believe I'm actually offering Christians advice on how to spread the Gospel more effectively. It's a far cry from my younger days, when anyone who professed faith earned my rolled eyes and closed ears, at a minimum.

I wasn't alone. Many of my fellow heathens and unbelievers can be particularly unkind to persons of faith. While not excusing this behavior, it is often a reaction to unkindness and intolerance on the part of certain believers who might wish to re-examine their actions. Dutchman6 elaborates at SSI:

First, the backstory(comments are worth reading, as well).

Then the first half of this post: "But the thing about Christians is that we must hold ourselves to a higher standard if we wish to be respected AS CHRISTIANS."

I agree. As one commenter in the backstory suggested, handing out water and quiet testimony will bring far more people to Christ than in-your-face, confrontational tactics. I mean, you do want to bring people to Christ, right? That was the point of the whole thing, wasn't it?

I'm still an atheist, but I've grown a lot more tolerant and understanding of my Christian brothers and sisters over the years. And I'll tell you this: said tolerance and understanding were not won by people waving signs, passing judgement and otherwise getting in my face. They came from watching true Christians, living their lives in quiet dignity and leading by example. They came from admiring people like Sarah Palin and Allen West, who don't just pay lip service to Christanity for the purposes of political expedience--they live their faith every moment of every day. And it shows.

It's all basically summed up in the wise words of a young man I once met: "Preach the Gospel at all times. Use words when necessary." In other words, let your actions speak not only for you, but for God. If your words and/or actions are driving people away from God...then who are you really working for?
