That's
The Che-Rub
 The
Biblical version of Satan/Lucifer is
not really some scarlet-clad sadist with a pointed
stick tormenting lost souls
in the
fiery pits.
He was actually the most beautiful of God's cherubs,
the perfect being.
This "perfection" meant he had (depending
on which part of the Bible you're reading) four/six
8-foot wings,
each with
extra
hands beneath them to "carry things". He
had four faces/heads, either man-cherub-eagle-lion
or man-ox-lion-eagle.
His body was entirely covered with eyes, even the
wings, and he adorned himself with precious stones.
Oh, and he was 18
feet tall. Why 18? Who knows.
He also had "whirring
wheels". I have no idea what that means.
BTW, these cherubs, or "angels", could come down to
Earth and take human form, but could only appear as
males. Just another classy example of the low regard
that the men who scribed the Bible held for women.
Not unlike the low regard I hold for anyone who
takes that crappola seriously.
Lastly, that crack about atheist girls reading the
Bible? It's
true. It seems that in tests by
the Pew Forum on Religion atheists actually know
more about the Bible, and religion in general,
than religious test subjects.
If you like you can take their short religious quiz
here.

Notes, Notes, and More Notes.
Taxes: Ten
things Republicans don't want you to know about
taxes. READ THIS!
Economics: America leads the world
in low-wage
jobs. This is not something to be proud
of.
Sleaze: The Republican war
on voter fraud is, itself, fraudulent. Quit
voting for these greedy, corporate-whoring scumbags.
Science: Strawberries and blueberries
can delay
memory decline in older adults? Hey, it's
worth a shot, and it's tasty, too!
Heresy: The kind of message
about the afterlife of
which I heartily approve.
Humor: The difference between
Bill Maher and Rush Limbaugh is that Maher's
fans know he's an asshole." -

made of public debt.

Republican Job Creation Update
 4-30-2012: On
Friday the House approved a bill that lowers the
interest on student loans, but tacked on a rider
which
guts the
Health
Care Act. It's designed to result in a presidential
veto, at which point Republicans can claim that
Mr. Obama doesn't care about student loans.
Fuck
these people! Fuck these people! Fuck these horrible,
greedy, useless, poisonous bags of scum!
