Ever heard of an organization called “ChristianExodus”? Don’t worry – You will! They’ve got a plan to take back America, and it doesn’t seem the least bit like my plan. Their Website explains what must be done and why:
ChristianExodus.org is coordinating the move of thousands of Christians to South Carolina for the express purpose of reestablishing Godly, constitutional government. It is evident that the U.S. Constitution has been abandoned under our current federal system, and the efforts of Christian activism to restore our Godly republic have proven futile over the past three decades. The time has come for Christians to withdraw our consent from the current federal government and reestablish the sovereign Christian nation of South Carolina.
Christians have actively tried to return the United States to their moral foundations for more than 20 years. We now have a “Christian” president, a “Christian” attorney general, and a Republican Congress and Supreme Court. Yet consider this:
Abortion continues unabated
Sodomite marriage is now legal in Massachusetts (and coming soon to a neighborhood near you)
Children still may not pray in our schools
Our schools continue to teach the clearly discredited theory of Darwinian evolution
The Bible is still not welcome in schools except under unconstitutional strict FEDERAL guidelines
The 10 Commandments remain banned from public display
Sodomy is now legal AND celebrated as “diversity” rather than perversion
Preaching Christianity will soon be outlawed as “hate speech”
Attempts at reform have proven futile. Future elections will not stop the above atrocities, but rather will exacerbate them and lead us down an even more deadly path.
So what can be done? ChristianExodus offers the opportunity to try a strategy not yet employed by Bible-believing Christians. Rather than spend resources in continued efforts to redirect the entire nation, we will redeem States one at a time. Millions of Christian conservatives are geographically spread out and diluted at the national level. Therefore, we must concentrate our numbers in a geographical region with a sovereign government we can control through the electoral process.
ChristianExodus is orchestrating the move of thousands of Christians to South Carolina for the express purpose of dissolving that State’s bond with the union.
This might, and I say might not be as scary to you as it is to me, because you might not live in South Carolina. I do, however. I moved here about 5 years ago, and it wasn’t so I could help redeem the state for ChristianExodus.
Right now I’m reminded of that old scary movie ploy where the harried resident receives a call from the Chief of police. You remember don’t you? Where he says, “We’ve traced the calls you’ve been getting from the psychopath and, well, they’re coming from INSIDE YOUR HOME!”
All I can ask is that you check in on me now and then.
Oops. Guess I should’ve added a smiley to indicate my at least half-sarcasm.
The serious half of my post sort of meant that there are a lot of Agnostics who call themselves that to avoid the negative connotations of the word “Atheist”.
Yeah, probably true. Not that I’d blame them. A good point in Brock’s thread about coming out.
And on a much less thoughtful note: decrepit, I always meant to ask – WHAT the heck is that in your gravatar? A man with a brain tumor or a guy with a beret?
Just a stocking cap on a pretzel salesman.
ok, how do I get the gravatar thingy?
ahh never mind

Snopes.com lists the attribution of that particular bit if Inbox Glurge as undetermined. There’s been a lot of crap attributed to Paul Harvey which he never wrote.
I guess the world is gonna go to hell because we are atheists/agnostics. Thats all I can see coming from these wack job religious fundies. Maybe thats not really so bad because the world would probably end up better than it already is: with out the fundies who will suppposedly be going to heaven.
