Indecision 08 Wingnut thread

[Bebek Sincap Ratatosk]

I don't really know that much about it, but didn't the nazis throw out a bunch of christian trappings in favor of a bunch of prechristian germanic trappings?

They liberally mixed Christian and Madam Blavatsky's strange belief system which held that there was once a Master Race etc. and they threw in some old germanic stuff as well, just to cover all their bases. Blaming Hitler on any particular religious view seems like a bad idea... the fucker just used whatever was handy to control the masses, religion, tradition, myth, fear... anything.

True, but saying that they "threw God out of government and society" is such a blatant lie that I'm beginning to wonder if the guy who wrote the book has ever even been to Germany.

Yep, sounds like a right wing apologist to me.

It's Wing Nut Daily so I would expect nothing less.  Maybe he meant to say that the Really Real God was kicked out of government and society and that the Really Real Christians became religious bystanders.

OH.MY.GOD!  It gets worse!!!

Everything I write is based on my personal experience in Nazi Germany. There is nothing theoretical about my description of what happens when a nation throws God out of government and society and Christians become religious bystanders.

Revisionist history FTL!

PD.com has destroyed my brain because that now reads as "got mittens?"

I think this is correct.  That is how my conventional christian family members would immediately interpret what he said.

Obama thinks he is a good talker, but he is often undisciplined when he speaks. He needs to understand that as President, his words will be scrutinized and will have impact whether he intends it or not. In this regard, President Bush is an excellent model; Obama should take a lesson from his example. Bush never gets sloppy when he is speaking publicly. He chooses his words with care and precision, which is why his style sometimes seems halting. In the eight years he has been President, it is remarkable how few gaffes or verbal blunders he has committed. If Obama doesn't raise his standards, he will exceed Bush's total before he is inaugurated.

wing nut daily so   or before you even start
the Nazis did send certain groups of Christians to the gas chamber along with the Jews.

Maybe he meant to say that the Really Real God was kicked out of government and society and that the Really Real Christians became religious bystanders.  fnord

Also: The fact that he is able to fly a fighter jet and land one on an aircraft carrier makes me uneasy. Granted it was an archaic S-3, but STILL!
