Ken Ham: Jesus was NOT a cosmic Jewish zombie

Dino-riding cult Answers in Genesis received the following letter recently from someone who will soon burn in hell with all of the homosexuals, scientists, infidels and immodest women:

You guys are crazy. I understand that your belief in a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father who wants you to symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically accept him as your master will remove an evil in your soul placed there by a rib-woman who was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magic tree is clouding your perception of scientific evidence, but all your doing is confusing Christians who can’t afford to go to college or are uninterested in REAL science. You should be ashamed of your selves and I hope this is a spoof website.

Answers in Genesis rebutted these ridiculous claims point-by-point in their response with indisputable historical science, such as the “Jesus is a zombie” blasphemy:

Jesus did come in the flesh as a Jew, so you got part of this correct. As for the zombie line, you clearly have not taken the time to look at the vast differences between a zombie and the resurrected Christ. Zombies are considered to be part of the undead (not alive), often will-less and speechless bodies that have been reanimated by spirits. The resurrected Christ is not undead, but alive (Revelation 1:18). After His Resurrection, He spoke with His followers and taught them (Luke 24:25–27), reassured them (Luke 24:36–39), and commanded them (Matthew 28:18–20). He ate food with them (Luke 24:43; John 21:15) and urged them to touch Him to see that He was not a ghost but truly risen from the dead bodily (Luke 24:39). He also had a will (John 21:22–23) and performed miracles (Luke 24:31; John 21:6).

Seriously, you’d have to be an idiot to not know that a zombie is an “undead” creature, unlike the totally 100% alive Jesus after he rose from the dead. Speech = Life. Served!

I highly suggest reading the entire thing. You might learn something. Or become a lot stupider.

Next Saturday: Smash the Patriarchy in Lexington and Louisville

Conservatives and Republicans all over the country have been very busy in 2012 trying to suppress a radical fringe interest group that threatens their homespun American values. In other words, the majority of the country: women.

Next Saturday, April 28th, folks in Lexington and Louisville are gathering to rally against the forces in Kentucky, D.C., and all over the country that are trying their best to destroy women’s health clinics, deny equal pay, and take away the basic constitutional right to control their own own uterus (small government conservatives that they are).

In Lexington, folks are gathering for a march at North Limestone and Main St. at 2:30. (Facebook event page here)

In Louisville, there will be a rally at the Fresh Start Growers Supply starting at 2:00, with some awesome speakers (Congressman John Yarmuth, state Rep. Mary Lou Marzian, and others), bands and food. (If you want to chip in for the costs of the space, clicky here.)

HULK SMASH. Get on it.

Failed one-term mayor and sore loser Jim Newberry was feeling especially bitter this Easter Sunday. He was busy sulking that he didn’t get to hang out with all of the Kool Kids during the UK basketball fun times, when he decided to let his pathetic internal feelings go outward, posting this to his Facebook “fan” page:

Run again, Jim. Pleeeeeeeease run again.

XOXO and nothing of any consequence,

Joe

You want to “get rid of” Planned Parenthood as president, Mitt Romney?

President Barack Obama just told you what time it is:

That’s called earning our vote.

What man or woman of intellect and cunning will have what it takes to win this Liberty Mug on April 2nd?

Yes, it’s that time of year again, so join up in our annual Barefoot and Progressive NCAA Tournament pool and show your stuff — by which I mean guessing about the acumen of teams that you’ve never seen play before, but might have seen some highlights of a few times.

Join the group right here, no password needed.

We also have “organic baby bodysuits” in the B&P store, but those are far too precious to just give away.

Now go hop to it.

Judge Shepherd says ‘Don’t Tread on Kathy’, HB 1 unconstitutional

Judge Shepherd just ruled both redistricting maps under House Bill 1 — including the ridiculous plan that tried to disenfranchise Lexington and steal Sen. Kathy Stein away from us fine peoples — unconstitutional.

More details to come, but until then….

Go Crazy! Go Crazy!

(also, now is the part where we watch Frankfort turn into Lord of the Flies… bonus)

***** UPDATE *****

This is all happening very fast (and will continue to get more chaotic once the legislature decides what they want to do… Appeal? Super-fast redistricting? Cannibalism?), but here’s more from Mr. Gerth in the courtroom:

FRANKFORT, KY. — A judge struck down the legislative redistricting plan as unconstitutional Tuesday and ordered the 2012 elections to be run in the districts that have been in place for the last decade — unless the House and Senate can pass bills that meet constitutional muster.

*****

He said there is “no controlling case law” to determine if the legislature violated the constitution when it switched numbers on two Senate districts and effectively disenfranchised more than 100,000 Fayette County residents for the next two years. But he said it needs “full adjudication.”

Shepherd pushed the deadline to file for office back until 4 p.m. Friday.

Sen. Kathy Stein, the Lexington Democrat who was effectively prohibited from running for re-election this year, said the disenfranchisement of her constituents under the House-Senate plan “does not comport with democracy.” She flashed the “thumb’s up” sign to supporters after hearing of the ruling.

Stein said she’s resigned to the likelihood that she will be redistricted out of office under any new plan, but will consider it a victory if Fayette County isn’t represented by someone outside of the county.

“I’m very hopeful that the leaders of both houses will take instruction from the opinion,” she said.

So we’re not necessarily out of the woods just yet, but at least HB 1 is not in the books.

Now back to the chaos/cannibalism…
