It’s funny ‘cause it’s true…

… and also kind of sad.

The more conservative and religious you are the more likely you love porn.

At least that appears to be the findings of a recent study of porn consumption:

A new nationwide study (pdf) of anonymised credit-card receipts from a major online adult entertainment provider finds little variation in consumption between states.

“When it comes to adult entertainment, it seems people are more the same than different,” says Benjamin . . . → Read More: The more conservative and religious you are the more likely you love porn.

Meanwhile FOX News shows just how biased they really are.

Over at Faux News they’re all up in arms that anyone is criticizing Sarah Palin and her $150,000 wardrobe. It’s no big deal, they say. When you’re in the public eye you have to look good, they say. So Jed over at Daily Kos put together a little montage to reveal their hypocrisy:

Republican hypocrisy on display. Thanks to “The Daily Show.”

There’s nothing like reviewing a few video clips to show everyone just how hypocritical the Republicans really are:

They remind me of those neighborhood kids you played with when you were kids that were always changing the rules of the game to their advantage, but if you tried to do the same then you were . . . → Read More: Republican hypocrisy on display. Thanks to “The Daily Show.”

If Sarah Palin wants her kids left out of politics then why is she putting them front and center?

That’s the question this analysis by AP writer Ted Anthony poses:

Kmart starts selling abstinence promoting pants and then lies about it.

This is pretty funny. Several blogs I read have been commenting on a new line of girl’s crop pants available at Kmart that have the slogan True Love Waits silk screened on them. People who, like me, are skeptical that a slogan on pants is going to do much to keep teens from having sex . . . → Read More: Kmart starts selling abstinence promoting pants and then lies about it.

Saving your kids’ souls, by any means necessary.

Here’s an entry that’s going to combine two things I talk about often, but which usually aren’t associated with each other: religion and video games. It’s seems a number of churches around the country are using the ever popular Halo video games to lure young men into church so they can be proselytized “ministered” to . . . → Read More: Saving your kids’ souls, by any means necessary.

Let’s get ready to RUMBLE: Phelps to picket Sen. Larry Craig.

Do two wrongs make a right? Sometimes when they come up against each other it might be tempting to think so. At the very least it’s an occasion to pop up some popcorn and settle back in anticipation of the fireworks. Alas it appears I may have already missed all the fun:

Woman claims school’s dress code targets her daughter’s religious beliefs.

It’s somewhat amusing how uppity some Christians can get when their (not so) subtle attempts to proselytize are disrupted by rules they don’t like. Be it taking down Ten Commandment plaques from Government buildings or, say, wearing shirts with religious slogans in violation of a school dress code. It seems that Highland High School in . . . → Read More: Woman claims school’s dress code targets her daughter’s religious beliefs.
