Her church is also one of the full-on speaking in tongues super-ultra evangelical ones, and also does not believe in medicine. That'll certainly help the health care system. At first I thought she was pretty safely neutral, but a little digging and she's moved into nuts territory.

I wonder if she holds with the "Teach both, debate is healthy" schtick when it comes to:

Heliocentrism vs Geocentrism

Flat earth vs the Globalists

Fire, earth, wind, water and Void vs The periodic table of elements

Phrenology vs Psychology.

FSM vs Yaweh.

I'm mostly reading from a guy who used to be in the church, he's been citing their doctrine website:

Still below Jindal on the nut scale since she hasn't mentioned being possessed by demons, as far as I can tell.

Having Gandalf as a professor would be pretty awesome though.

Except you wouldn't get him and be left with only Dumbledore.

I actually wrote about entropy and related it to lycanthropy in my AP Chemistry essay portion. Got a good score too.

Well, that's what makes her a modern Republican.

Actually I long for the day when people who do not believe in science no longer try to gain its benefits, like medicine and cell phones and all that. Practice what you preach, like the Amish.

Now the news is saying that Hurricane Gustav threatening to come ashore may cause the Republican National Convention to be postponed, or at a minimum for Bush to cancel his speech there, and this on the third anniversary of Katrina.

The Flying Spaghetti Monster is watching you! And he doesn't like Veep candidates who speak in tongues!

The Convention isnt being canceled. Bush just wont speak at it. Hes going to stay at the white house to monitor the hurricane with his advisors.

You know, for somebody who is in favour of scrapping the Off Topic Forum so that things that might upset other players (like, eg, political opinions) can be avoided, its a little hypocritical to put your political opinion in your avatar so even people who avoid off topic can see it.
