Unlike Camille, I'll keep it short:
1. As Penn Gillette would say, The Bible is bullshit. Plus, there is not an iota of proof JC even existed in any meaningful form. If you're going to proclaim your atheism, then argue like one. Likewise stop sucking up to convervatives!
2. Solar phenomena as cause of global warming: possible, but where's the proof, or don't we need one?
3. Obama's so-called stumbles: the guy's not even prez yet, give him a chance to prove himself. My tip is he will fail because history is not on his side. Will he prevent the coming depression? No. Will he solve the mess in the Middle-East and elsewhere? No. Will he stop sucking up to the Zionists, stop Israel mass-murdering children? No. Will he punish Wall Street, the City of London and the rest of those gangsters? No.
(I fear Obama is a bit of "paglia" democrat, showing too much respect for GOP assholes, and therefore will fail to transform himself into the can-do, inspiring presidents like FDR or JFK the world needs)
4. Homosexuality and genes: this is getting pretty boring. Personally, I think it's the genes. Paglia's explanation is the opposite. Fair enough, but again, where's the proof? All we get is supposition but no science and no proof.
5. Sarah Palin: enough already. To paraphrase Paglia herself, she's a paleo-nonentity. Ancient history, or herstory, whatever the fuck.
