Birthday - Emily Post (Author)

Oh, great.

It’s like everything stupid has coalesced into one putrid mass of destructive, disastrous idiocy.

A few revealing quotes:

“Are you ready to be a man? Are you ready to kick ass? Are you ready to grab your sword and say, ‘OK family, I’m going to lead you?’ Buckle up. This is GodMen!” – Christian Comedian Brad Stine psyching men up to take back the patriarchy.

Their purpose: to reassert masculinity within a church structure that they say has been weakened by feminization. – I had all sorts of clever things to say about “damn those women and their cry against being unappreciated, insulted, and devalued!”, but I can’t get past the looming Mount Doom that is exactly how much is wrong with the concept of “weakened by feminization.”

“No more nice guy, timid and ashamed/ We’ve had enough, cowboy up/ In the power of Jesus name/ Welcome to the battle/ A million men have got your back/ Jump up in the saddle/ Grab a sword, don’t be scared/ Be a man, grow a pair!” – Words to “Grow A Pair,” which may be a rewrite of a marching song from the Crusades.

This is what I get for clicking links to Newsweek.

You know, if there'd been an unfortunate accident bringing down one of their McChurches while they'd all been in there, I'd have been all for throwing a party for everyone they've ever known to celebrate their return to life. It would have been beautiful. I think their wives and children would have wept tears of joy at knowing they weren't going to be getting controlled, hit and yelled at by some macho prick with a God complex.

Reacting against fear that much is still letting it run their lives, no matter how much they're trying to kill their brains and hearts to make it easier for them to lie to themselves about it.

Nothing says "Love thy neighbor" and "turn the other cheek" like "MONSTER TRUCK RALLY SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY...!"
