Bonehead
I know that I said I was too busy to post again this week, but this was just too much for me to pass up.
Last I checked, we weren't at war with Venezuela. Are we at war with Venezuela and I missed it? Wait, let me check Google...nope, we're not at war with Venezuela. That's what I thought.
It appears that Mr. Robertson's head is comprised entirely of bone.

Yeah, that Mr. Robertson is some sort of spiritual leader, don't you think? Yeesh. How do some people get on TV. Go away. Just because you have a TV camera doesn't mean you have to go say something stupid. But that's what happens...
Where are the good spiritual leaders of today's time? I want a good man or woman to follow. We used to have them. Now we have crackpots and morons.
And I just found the following from the Chicago Tribune:
-----------
Bernardo Alvarez, Venezuela's ambassador to the United States, spoke after the U.S. officials made their remarks and said the White House should forcefully condemn Robertson, whom he described as a powerful religious leader and one of President Bush's "principal supporters."
Rumsfeld said of Robertson: "He's a private citizen. Private citizens say all kinds of things all the time."

Way to go, Rummy. Moron.
Holy cow. No. Unholy cow.
Teo-myfriendo,
I think those good spiritual leaders are out there. I've actually met and worked with a few. Of course, the best ones correctly avoid saying "follow me" and are smart enough to keep a low profile. They lead because they lead, not because they say "I lead". (And what's funny is that many people don't understand that there is a profound difference between the two approaches.)
I've jokingly said to some of my friends who are pastors that actually wanting to be a pastor should be an immediate disqualification from becoming one. Of course, they know that I'm only partly joking.
Yes, I believe that there is such a thing as a "calling", where someone really feels drawn into that a spiritual leadership role. But it should be fought violently until it's absolutely clear that it's not because you want to lord authority (or "Lord" authority, as the case may be) over other people. Clearly, anyone who really feels that they must have their own TV show should be ruled out.
Again, too many christians, too damn few lions. By the power invested in Taint, I proclaim and demand that this man's head shall be impaled on the mother of all spicy chicken legs, forthwith!
All I need to seal the deal are the services of a rambunctious hellion. Where the hell is Salome when you need her? The youth of today are so disappointing. Felicity is omnilicious, but she can't be in all places at once.
I for one am busy resetting my Mega Moog. How I love, love, love my Mega Moog. It's held together with duct tape, and you gotta fiddle with the knobs forever. But is the kind of forever that you will easily give up for never.
Meag. The very essence of Taint.
