Personally, I think you should be ashamed of yourself for what you've done in this thread. Its one thing to joke--its quite another to try and mock someone (and you know exactly what I'm talking about).

That's BS. These threads are filled with each other blasting the politics of the other. Stoner has posted numerous political cartoons and jokes about my political beliefs as have you and others and visca-versa. There's a difference between that and mocking people. I don't have to justify my actions to you. You're the one that needs to look in the mirror. Your problem is you've got a guilty conscience from that thread and you don't like me sticking it in your eye.

A quiz to save California
Ben Shapiro (archive)


August 6, 2003 | Print | Send


California is going down the drain, and something must be done. We need citizens with brains. To that end, I have prepared this quiz.


Question 1: You are the principal of a Catholic school, and your school needs more teachers. You are in charge of hiring and firing. Into your office strides James, a nice, clean-cut young man of 25. He is a Catholic; he has an excellent resume. You hire him. The next morning, he shows up for school in a dress and informs his students that he wishes to be called Regina. When you hear about the James/Regina situation, you should: a) fire him, realizing that you will lose both students and moral credibility if you continue to keep him on staff; b) admonish him and explain that if he interviewed as James, you expect him to teach as James; c) laugh until you bust a gut; d) give him a raise and explain to parents that James/Regina will help children heighten their tolerance and sensitivity toward transgendered people.

Answer 1: D. On Aug. 2, Gov. Gray Davis signed AB 196 into law. AB 196 prohibits discrimination in employment and housing against those whose "perceived gender characteristics are different from those traditionally associated with the individual's sex at birth."

Question 2: A year from now, you are driving on the freeway when you are rear-ended by a broken-down 1971 Chevy pickup. You immediately pull over to the shoulder, as does the perpetrator. You exit your car and ask the Chevy driver if he is all right. Signaling that he does not understand English, he turns to one of his five middle-aged male passengers riding in the bed of the truck. They converse fluently in Spanish. It is fair to assume that: a) the driver has no car insurance; b) the driver has a driver's license; c) all the men in the truck are familiar with the Mexican national anthem; d) you should get back in your car and drive away before a large, tattooed man wearing a bandana gets out of the back of the truck.

Answer 2: B. If Gray Davis remains in office, he promises to sign legislation giving illegal immigrants driver's licenses. Even if Davis gets the boot, he will probably sign the bill before he goes. By the way, you should be ashamed if your answer was a, c or d, you racist!

Question 3: You're making dinner, and you accidentally slice open your finger. Luckily, you live close to an emergency room, so you drive there and sit down. Then, a young woman, about 19, walks into the ER holding a small, perfectly healthy new baby. She walks up to a gurney, tosses the baby onto it and strides out. You see her jump into a taxi. You should: a) inform hospital staff of the incident, call the police and give them a description of the woman; b) run after the woman, pull her out of her cab, and ask her name and where she is going; c) remain seated and smile serenely as the woman ditches the kid; d) pursue the woman, chain her to a wall and read her "Horton Hatches the Egg."

Answer 3: C. If you do b or d, you could be breaking the law. If you do a, you'd be annoying the police department for no reason. According to California law, a mother can abandon her newly born child within 72 hours of its birth at designated sites across the state without fear of prosecution.

Question 4: You walk to the polls on Oct. 7 to vote in the gubernatorial recall election. You have decided to vote in favor of the recall and to vote for another candidate on the ballot. Before you came to vote, you were considering four candidates, but one of them does not appear on the ballot. Which one of the following four candidates is not on the ballot? a) Angelyne -- she could not fit on the ballot; b) Jack Kemp -- he's re-entering the NFL; c) Arianna Huffington -- she admitted her desire to reunite with bisexual former husband Michael; d) Larry Flynt -- he didn't want to sully his legacy by entering politics.

Answer 4: B. But he's not re-entering the NFL.

Scoring scale: Four correct answers -- you're a Californian. Condolences. Three correct answers -- you're from New York. Condolences. One or two correct answers -- you're still too close. Therapy recommended. Zero correct -- please move to California. We need sane people.

This is no 'mock'.... this is a 'religious' belief forced into political policy:

Jesus said in Luke 22:36 "He who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one."....Paul why do you suppose Jesus would tell people to buy a sword if He was so against them using it?

Jesus also said to Pontius Pilate in John 18:36 "If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight..." Jesus recognized the right of earthly government to wage warfare.

And in Luke 14:31, Jesus asked, "What king, going to make war does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with 10,000 to meet him who comes with 20,000?" ......Jesus using war as an analogy? Shocking, especially if He was a pacifist!

Many of the teachings of Jesus are filled with similar implicit affirmations of soldiering and warfare.

Besides that, look what John the baptist said to the soldiers who asked him the question "what shall we do?" in Luke 3:14. Did he say to them, "stop fighting....its wrong"? No, he told them, "Do not intimidate anyone or accuse them falsely, and be content with your wages" I dunno....I could be wrong....but those dont look like the words of a pacifist to me.

In 2 Timothy 2:3, Paul told Timothy to "endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ"...surely scripture would never use a dishonorable profession as a good example for christians! Christians are never compared to thieves or prostitutes. But the sildier is the prefect analogy for the Christian, because we are enaged in spiritual warfare. And by comapring Christians to soldiers, scripture elevates the nobility of the profession. Pacifism denigrates it, imo.

Jesus taught forgiveness, compassion, mercy and love but He also taught about justice and the coming wrath of God against evildoers. He also showed righteous anger when He took a whip and drove the evildoers from the temple. I suppose you have another reason for His doing that? I'd like to hear it if you do.

When the government functions as God has ordained, they are considered by scripture to be "God's minister's" (Romans 13:6) That doesnt mean that the government itself is neccessarily righteous (we've all seen examples of corruption in government). But its efforts to maintain peace and persue justice constitute a righteous cause. The divine authority to wield the sword of justice applies to government itself, and not to any particular nation. Some misguided people might engage in war for other reasons....be it oil, land, greed..etc...but the bottom line is that scripture supports war against evil. And if you have any doubts about Hussein being evil....just go back again and read those links I provided.

You are amazing ,....Chris!


Politically the neocon faction joins with a radical 'religious' group for the purpose of world domination,........or at least domination of the oil markets
With out joining with at least with the 'Fundies'...there is not enough of a concensus to control the Republican party.
and you want to separate the 'religious' rationalization for murder from the scope of discussion??

The lengthy quote above is the neocons passport to their final achievement.
I find that mentality offensive, and yet it exits in TSG's forum without protest from you!

Appearently, murder isn't as offensive to some, as Landover Baptist Church is. Go figure!

[Mulderator]

That's right. I want to take over the world. And the first thing I'm going to do when the neocons complete our conquest is outlaw incoherent babble. That means no more liberal-speak!

[Stoner]

Gotcha

[bassetman]

Mulder, how about a few months back when NeoCons were saying "Those actors should keep their mouths shut and stay out of politics"
Now when Arnie runs they are all bowing down to an Actor in politics?

incoherent babble.

Yeah, but this is Kalifornia--different than the other 49 states!

BTW--I don't really care if Arnold wins so long as a Republican wins. A Republican plumber or janitor would be a better choice for Governor than Davis!!!

Actually, since I don't live in Kalifornia, it's none of my business whether there is a Republican or Democrat Governor.
But , I do wonder what Arnie has on paper as a fiscal policy to get out of the debt.
Aren't there any better in the Rep. party that can beat Davis, or is this only a popularity contest?

Hey Cedric--the French tourism board says visits to France by Americans is down by 80% this year (I'm sure that makes you happy). The hatred of America your country has shown is coming home to roost, my friend. If I were you, I wouldn't be advertising that you live in France.

Iraqis will have it better than you do in about 5 years! Enjoy your failing economy!!!

[Cédric]

Hopefully, some of your compatriots are clever enough and will visit France again in a couple of years. No worries.

Sadly, not sure the Iraqis will have it better if your government keeps on murdering them and stays in their country like 19th century colonizers...

Hey Mulder, what about going to some parts of Africa? Some trouble there, right? But maybe not enough oil...
About Iraq, I reckon you're f*** and the situation will get worse: Vietnam 2. More terrorists attacks. More people hating the States. And don't think I'm happy about this. I find it hard to imagine your fellow citizens will never feel safe again in some parts of the world.

Sorry but I don't get the point about not advertising I'm French. Do you loathe people who can't stand your point of view?
As for me, I don't hate America, I'm simply opposed to its actual measures and its cynical desire to rule the world.

take care mate and sorry about my English.
