Fun site of the day: Fundies Say the Darnedest Things.
--- edit: I was inspired the Lord Jebus and some of the awards on the page to make my very own awards for these! --
The Enough Irony In My Religious Diet Award:
"I often debate with evolutionists because I believe that they are narrow mindedly and dogmatically accepting evolution without questioning it. I don't really care how God did what He did. I know He did it."
TexasSky, Christian Forums
The Apples and Gas Chambers Award:
"Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history."
Pat Robertson, Quotes From the Religious Right

The I Like The Old Testament The Best Award:
"A woman wants to abort a rape child? She should have thought of that before she walked down that dark alley without a male prescence, not to mention she should have thought before putting on revealing attire.
[Yes. It should (be legal). Otherwise you're screwing over the women who don't deserve their fate.]
Are you calling them victims now? Should've stayed in the house where it's safe."
Uberbeliever, Christian Forums
The I Can't Draw Parallels Award:
"[On the Harry Potter books]
To suggest to any child...that there is a way to escape the unhappy, real life world they live in and to retreat into a mystical fantasy world to find happiness is totally irresponsible and deceitful.

The Woman Get Me Another PBR An' Assume That There Position Me An' God Like Award:
"Me and my husband is thinking about having a baby, but hestitate, because his brother (which we have no contact with whatsoever) is presumably gay. Might this affect the baby? Is there some precautions I can take, or some medicaments I can eat to make sure my child is pure? Thank you for your help, don't know what i'll do without you"

The I Dun Herd It, Uh-huh Award:
"isnt evolution being thrown out by most scholars now days? I heard that most hardvard scholars have thrown out the possibily of evolution."

The BDSM CBT For Christs Love Award:
"[Should I wear a chastity belt to stop masturbation?]
Maybe not a chastity belt (not very practical/hygienic) but there are other devices you can get. My fiance has one, it goes round the base of his xxxxx and just sits there until he gets aroused, then it has teeth that stick in and hurt him so he turns his mind to something else. Plus, for obvious reasons it can't be removed by a guy who's in that condition.
Personally I think it's terrible that he has to wear that thing, it hurts him a lot at times and he bleeds, but we're sharing a home together now and not married and we've promised each other nothing immoral will happen and he feels it's the only way he can keep on the right path"

The Circular Theological Logic Circularity Award:
"What part of I know that the bible is true because the bible tells me that it is true do you have trouble understanding?
Don't you feel silly disagreeing with such a logical argument?
Love and blessings Don"

The funny doesn't stop there- there is some *amazing* ignorance on that site.
In the last two days I have watched 3 totally kickass movies.
Big Nothing is a hilarious dark-humor crime-gone-wrong flick.
Evan Almighty is a story of a modern-day Noah. And yes, Morgan Freeman is still one of my favoritest Gods of all movie history. There's enough to keep me amused there and Victor enjoyed it a lot too.
Prime is a cute role-reversal May-September romance flick. Uma Thurman FTW as a HOT Mrs Robinson.
