Missisipi Doesnt Like Black People

[The Good Reverend Roger]

except they neglect to mention that Mississippi's population is 37% black, the highest proportion in the nation, and if it's also the most conservative state in the nation, it stands to reason that a fair number of african americans there are registered republican.  I'd be more interested to see the demographics of who gave that answer.   

Still waiting to hear how Blacks all hate Blacks.

Mississippi:  37.5% Uncle Ruckus (no relation).

I remember when some tea party clown was running for office in Mississippi he argued that stores should be allowed to refuse to sell to blacks.
He justified it by saying he wasnt racist just a LOLbretarian.

I was talking to a friend of mine from Mississippi about it and he said that if I thought that would lose him any votes down there I was dead wrong.

I though he was exaggerating until now.

I wonder how some of the self proclaimed LOLbretarians in the Mississippi Tea Party would justify banning interracial marriage?

Demographics for your convenience

18-29: 31% legal, 54% illegal, 15% not sure

30-45: 48% legal, 38% illegal, 15% not sure

45-65: 49% legal, 39% illegal, 12% not sure

older than 65: 30% legal, 56% illegal, 14% not sure

Wow... The younger generation is actually MORE racist than the last.
Did the KKK start a youth outreach program?

I suspect that because the laws were overturned by SCOTUS, it comes out to being bad nasty feds walking all over 'state rights'.

Yes, actually. Hook them with on any number of a variety of issues, make 'em adopt the rest.

Joy of Satan comes to mind: Hate Christianity? Want to become a Satanist? Cool, here's some stuff. The Christian god is evil, as can readily be demonstrated by any rational person with a Bible in their hands. Also, occult powers. Hooked yet? Good. Alright, so Christian god is actually the Jewish god. Jewish god invented Christianity to suppress the Gentiles via his evil Jew followers who want to concentrate all financial and occult power into the Jewish elite. Oh, the Jews are behind everything, by the way, and Hitler was good to throw them inhumanely into ovens and "showers." He was a dude who knows what's up, a good Aryan Satanist. Ergo, any good Satanist is a Nazi. Oh, and Jehovah is actually a grey alien posing as a god, as evidenced by that one picture that Aleister Crowley drew, even though he said it wasn't an alien after all and just gave it to the dude who guessed that's what it was because he really needed his heroin fix, but let's ignore that fact for now.

Granted, it seems like Joy of Satan is not racist in the purest sense of the word, but they are rabidly anti-Semitic, and hide the fact at first unless you do some digging.

What is this I dont even...

Im tempted to say "People actually believe that?" but I know for a fact there are much stranger religions out there.

But still, how high do you have to be to even think something like that up?

Religion has always been a dumbass excuse for dumbass ideas. You want to be a Satanist? Ok, cool, if it works for you it works for you. Most Satanists, from what I gather are LaVeyan, and therefore atheists/philosophical Satanists. You want to be a Theistic Satanist, ok, again, whatever floats your boat. If you get some sort of spiritual/psychological validation out of it, go for it. Want Satanism to be an excuse for hating Jews? No, ok, fuck off. You're a fucking Nazi. And a dumbass. Seriously, click around on their site. Seems at first like, ok, cool, you're doing a Satanic thing and it works for you. More power to you. Click. Woah.... No, You all suck.

Type it into google. Here's the first three results you get as you're typing it:
Joy of Satan ministries
Joy of Satan exposed
Joy of Satan Nazi

Plenty of other Satanists, I gather, fucking hate them.

[Requia ☣]

Them and ONA, there's a perpetual low level flamewar going on over it in the Satanist subforum on a religion forum I visit.

Of course, there's also the people who insist that either the Nazi types aren't really real satanists, or that they don't exist and its really Christian propaganda.

I dunno, makes sense to me.  Christianity grew from Judaism, if you hate Christianity, chances are you hate Jews too.

I'm not a fan of Satanists of any stripe though generally.

Ok, here's a difference.
Do you hate Christianity or Christians?
Do you hate Judaism or Jews?

Do you hate organized religion as a dogmatic restricting force, or do you hate the people who believe in a particular religion?

It's an easy choice.

I don't like the god that the followers of Abrahamic religions portray. And yet.... most of my friends are some flavor of Christian, and some of them are Jewish. Do I fault them for it? No.

Here's an awesome example. A very good friend of mine, and his wife, are Lutheran ministers. While they were in seminary, and while I went to visit them in Ohio, we decided to spend a weekend in their native Indiana, where the dude of that couple's father was also a Lutheran minister. I am affectionately known in that family as "Kevin the Pagan" and I don't have a problem with that. Since it was on a weekend, and we were staying with the good reverend, we, out of politeness, had to go to church. The topic that the ELCA chose for a sermon that weekend? False Gods. My friend's minister father, preacher man, man of heretic Christian god (as a former Catholic, I affectionately refer to my friends as heretics. As Christians, they refer to me affectionately as an apostate) preached, very tactfully, about money being a false god. And then the reverend gave me several very good home brewed beers after the service. Here I am, an apostate, an atavist, going back and worshiping gods he sees as demons. But I'm his son's friend, and a decent bloke to boot, and with an awkward topic to sermonize about. I felt welcome, and liked. I even put money in the collection plate.

As a former Catholic, I've never felt so welcome or comfortable in a church. As the good book says, "Love the sinner, hate the sin."

Makes sense.  My opinion of Satanists isn't high enough to expect them to get the distinction though.
