February 12, 2006Sons of Adultery! Homosexuals provoking!Watch videotape taken in Paris, France February 11, 2006, and the effect two peaceful counterdemonstrators have on the insecure manly men who populate the ranks of Islamofascist extremists. No Pasaran! transcribes Note how the counterprotesters are immediately labeled “homosexual” by these men. 4,000 men protesting see two men counterprotesting and immediately assign an identity to them which makes them “easy” to hate and even kill. They see two men and respond, “they are provoking; [they] are stepping on 1.6 billion Muslims.” Things are going to go from bad to worse, very quickly, I think. And not because of cartoons, but because these people are READY. Or, to put it another way: they have the numbers, they have the will, and they’ve got the West cringing. H/T Gateway Pundit who wrote earlier today about the fall of the West. In other news, Mormons CAN take a joke, as indicated here. UPDATE: Ed Driscoll has some terrific links on this. Tammy Bruce notes that Sweden is the first to formally shut itself down. UPDATE II: Yes, it’s offensive. Yes, I laughed! I can’t say I laughed at all of them - but I found that one pretty funny. H/T Andrew Sullivan. UPDATE III: Meanwhile, Al Gore - speaking in Saudi Arabia - seems once again to be off his meds. Ed Morrissey says he is stunned into speechlessness. Tigerhawk has more. Slightly - but only slightly o/t - I just finished Theodore Dalrymple’s latest collection of essays, Our Culture, What’s Left of It : The Mandarins and the masses and can’t recommend it enough. I know some consider Dalrymple to be a bit of a pessimist - personally, I don’t think you can do the things he has done (working in Rhodesia and other parts of Africa as a young doctor, working as a prison doctor) and seen the things he has seen without having it effect you and make you feel like things are (in Yeats’ words) “falling apart - the center does not hold.” But I think Dalrymple betrays a great deal of optimism in that he keeps writing - whether it’s about the timeless instruction we may take from Shakespeare, or the terrors of drunken partiers in any UK city on a Friday night, or unthinkable acts of evil which seemingly ordinary people perpetrate upon each other, Dalrymple is talking real life, real times. If what he is writing seems bleak, well…then he is serving a wake-up call that we might do well to heed. This is a serious book by a serious man who loves the world and the people within it, and he is increasingly horrified at how those people do not love themselves. http://theanchoressonline.com/2006/02/12/sons-of-adultery-homosexuals-provoking/trackback/ 7 Responses to “Sons of Adultery!

After reading the cartoon you linked (and I laughed, too), it dawned on me that one thing that distinguishes Jesus from other religous leaders is that he never hurt anyone (I don’t know is this applies to Buddha or not).
Jesus healed, body and soul. He wasn’t about earthly power, just peace. By overturning the tables of the money changers, he showed that sometimes a person has to fight what is wrong–he did NOT submit.
The gospels don’t really play this up,. but I think he had a sense of humor. I really wished Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John would have written, “Jesus laughed,” but the miralce of the water into wine shows that Jesus celebrated life’s joys, too.
I think Jesus would have laughed at this cartoon.

Another Protestor Off His Noodle

These are not manly men, and shouldn’t be referred to as such. Manly men stand up for what’s right, and don’t cover their faces while they are doing it like burkha covered women.
