Google Bordello

Google’s war on Our Nation’s Values takes many shapes, whether it be the liberal bias of their search algorithms or those terrorist-abetting maps to Donald Rumsfeld’s house. The latest slap in the face we’ve had to endure is their endorsement of the radical homosexual lifestyle, which has made one thing abundantly clear: We Christians really need to start looking for our porn elsewhere:

A Christian conservative activist in California says he will be using a new Internet search engine now that Google has publicly proclaimed its support for same-sex “marriage” and its opposition to the state’s marriage protection amendment. …

Randy Thomasson of the Campaign for Children and Families says young billionaires Sergey Brin and Larry Page (Google co-founder) have “replaced all notions of God’s truth by worshiping money as god.”

“You might have noticed that their website…actually avoids…Thanksgiving, diminishes holidays like the Fourth of July, gives sarcastic tribute to Easter and Christmas, and actually elevates more pagan-type holidays to their liking,” he points out. “So, it’s no surprise whatsoever.”

Lord knows how my Faith has been tested by those wicked holiday Google logos. Homosexuality never looks so appealing as when it’s in doodle form, and Andy Warhol’s birthday pretty much sent me over the edge — running home to watch Passions, lurking in AOL M4M chatrooms, and marathon sessions of ordering sample fabric swatches from Laura Ashley and Restoration Hardware; in short, the worst three years of my life.

While I suppose in theory I’ll miss the fact-checking Google allows, the truth of the matter is all that veracity was something of a drag, blogging-wise, and truthfully held me back. I’m looking forward to the brave new electronic frontier I’ll discover by relying solely on Christian search engines, or just by pulling shit wholesale out of my ass — maybe even Time’s blog of the year is in reach. Praise Him!

McCain Wants To Bomb Pakistan

Sister Nancy Beth Eczema will be using the New Christian Search Engine.

I actually saw my first “Gas Line” since the 70s a couple of weeks ago. The Hy-Vee was selling gas one day for $2.99 a gallon between 4 and 6 p.m., and cars were lined up around several blocks! Some states are having shortages.

The “John McCain: Apocalypse Now Redux” T-Shirt can be purchased at The Zencomix Online Market.

Edward Lorenz was a professor at MIT when he came up with the scientific concept that small effects lead to big changes, something known as the “butterfly effect.” He explained how something as minuscule as a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil changes the atmosphere in ways that could later trigger tornadoes in Texas. His discovery of “deterministic chaos” brought about “one of the most dramatic changes in mankind’s view of nature since Sir Isaac Newton,” said the committee that awarded him the 1991 Kyoto Prize for basic science. Lorenz died in Cambridge, MA on April 16, 2008. He was 90. (From wire reports, BFP, 4/17/08)
