Orthodoxy as Parasitism -- Satish, Re: In my opinion, the Muslims(men and women)are the biggest victims of the orthodox view of the Islamist. Orthodoxy is the bane of humanity. The most virulently destructive force inside the three heinous mono-theistic religions is orthodoxy. The most banal of the three malevolent sects is the Judaic orthodoxy. For the most part, these people are simply parasites on the rest of society. They are a net loss to Israel. While living like the most profligate of welfare whores, they espouse some of the most ridiculous poppycock about ancient superstitions, fairy tales and silly shibboleths of sophistry. They are damn near useless to modern society. Yet, for mysterious reasons, they are tolerated by the namby-pamby, wishy washy liberals in society. While in reality, they should be ridiculed for being so insanely out of touch with reality. The Muslim fanatic orthodoxy brings us the enlightened stoning of women for the sin of harming "family pride". These fanatics seem more like a pride of lions than a tribe of humans. The viciousness toward women, the pure misogyny of the Musselman fanatic is simply beyond the pale of human decency. But my greatest venom is reserved for the ultimate hypocrisy of the Christian fundamentalist. This band of marauders and rapists is the most fundamentally f***ed-up gathering of greedheads and goons that the world has ever produced. By what right has this fascist lot of louts subverted our Constitution, stolen our White House and begun to run rough-shod over the planet in a series of unprovoked naked aggressions? Not since the militarism of the l930s, when we witnessed the rise of the twin evils of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan has the world witnessed such a blatant attempt at wholesale grand larceny as that which is being perpetrated today by Halliburton, Bechtel, General Dynamics and their toadies in the hall of power in Washington. All in the name of a myth. The myth that "our god" is better than "their god". Poppycock. This has nothing to do with a god. What the Christian fundamentalists are all about is the satisfaction of their basest instincts of sadism, selfishness and unsubtle piggery. And they are smart enough, and hypocritical enough, to realize that they gotta get the goods in this lifetime.
