One Bomber Killed...But Let's Not Rush To Judge

One of the Boston Bombing suspects has been killed after a shootout.

I'd just like to say now that any death is a tragedy, and I'm sorry that the bomber had to die....ppppffff....Hahaha!...Oh, man...I just couldn't contain that laugh.  No, in all seriousness, I'm glad he's dead!

Now, like I said before*, let's not rush to judge.  We have no idea that these bombers are Muslims.  Remember that well-worn quote, "Terrorism has no religion."

I mean, yeah, the now dead member of the Chechen bomber duo was named "Tamerlan"...in honor of what may perhaps have been the single most prolific Muslim murderer in the history of the world (AKA "Timur the Lame").

But wait just a second before you judge!  Let's take a look at the link below:

According to that, a full 5.94% of Chechens are NOT Muslims.  They could easily be from that nearly six percent of the population, don't you think?  Don't be racist now!  (I know that Muslim Chechens look white, but don't let that fool you.  Islam is a race.)

Let's continue to keep an open mind here.

In other news, there was a recent cafe bombing in Baghdad that killed at least 32 and wounded at least 65.  Hey, it could have been a Chaldean Christian or worse, a godless atheist...

Sokal-style hoaxes work for religious postmodernists, but (post) modernism is the real hoax Modernism in art and architecture, and postmodernism in philosophy are, like religion, insults to human intelligence.  Unfortunately, many people fall for their hollow propaganda. The "Sokal Affair" was a hoax whereby a man called Alan Sokal submitted a postmodern-sounding article to a postmodern journal.  It turns out that the English you hear isn't just unintelligible to you, but it's unintelligible to the people at the journal as well.  But if it's unintelligible, it must be profound, right?  The journal quickly accepted it, not knowing that it was all fake B.S.  They then got embarrassed when they were told that it was pompous-sounding drivel. Religion has done the same thing.  When people can't understand something, they generally think it's much more profound than if they can understand it.  If a priest speaks Latin, wears some weird costume, and sp...

The Islamic State has beheaded at least 21 Christians in Libya.

Whenever a Muslim brings up the Crusades, I have to laugh to myself.  Christians have done horrible things, including in later crusades against Constantinople and the Cathars in particular.  However, get this.  The Islamic State militants said, "Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for" right before butchering Egyptian Christians. It seems that many Muslims haven't taken a single history class.  If they had, they would have known that Christians existed in Egypt for 400 years before Islam.  (Heck, they were even around to murder Hypatia, perhaps the last major ancient female philosopher.)  It was the Muslims who were the "Crusaders"...yet almost nobody will admit to this.  Muslims instigated a merciless war against Christian Egyptians until they were overcome and under Islamic domination.  They did this to people across the world, from Spain to India...massacring any who resisted.  They tried to destroy the Byzaintine Em...
Fighting Klanophobia I'm always hurt when I see bigots offend groups of people.  All too often, people paint a group, "the other" with a broad brush and stereotype them as being evil, even though the crimes that are associated with them are only committed by a tiny minority fringe element within the larger group. Such is the case with the Ku Klux Klan.  Most people don't like to associate with them.  There is a lot of prejudice directed towards that group, particularly among blacks and Jews, but this hate is widespread.  If you see a klansman wearing his cultural garb, how do you feel?  Do you become nervous?  Do you think that he'll do something violent?  If so, you're part of the problem. The KKK is an organization of peace.  Most of its members are peaceful and only want to go about their lives without being harmed...like most people in this world.  Sure, there are a few members who preach hate, but that's true in almost every grou...
