my grandparents were in town and checking their email on my computer when they read one off that mirrored teddy roosevelt's political experience to sara palin's.
Why my grandparents think palin is so great is fucking beyond me.
It is very unlikely that Jesus was born in December. For one, the shepherds would not have had their sheep out to flock. The Israeli winters are too cold.
so you're saying Jesus wasn't coincidentally born on the day of the winter solstice?

blasphemy!
Before it was celebrated as the birthday of Christ, it was celebrated as the birthday of Mithras, who, coincidentally, was also called the son of god and the "light of the world." Unlike Christ, however, Mithras wasn't born from a woman, he bust straight out of a boulder as a full grown adult, with rippling biceps and a jaw that could cut glass. After performing a series of miraculous events, Mithras ascended into heaven.

There is a link, in this e-mail, to a Snopes article which debunks this whole fucking thing.
My parents are pretty good about not sending me stupid crap. Other people I know however ought to have their computing licenses revoked
I got an email the other day that had three copies of the same stupid 'inspirational' email in-line and one more as an attachment.
I have gone to a 'no strikes' system. The first time somebody sends me something stupid like that, I make a filter in gmail that moves their stuff directly to the garbage. I figure if they really want to get in touch with me they can find my phone number.
My parents are freaking awful about sending me stupid forwards. At least they know of the existence of snopes, and don't send me dumb conspiracy things, and the like. They are crazy religious nuts though.. almost all of my family is Christian Scientists. And I got yelled at a ridiculous amount when I told them I didn't believe in their religion, at age 8. So I ate my words, until I moved out. They're still sending me religious articles, four years later. And they think that needle marks on my arm from having blood drawn, and an iv stuck in my vein are because I'm doing drugs. *face palm*
I think I must have gotten every Obama paranoia email that was in circulation from my parents, and I generally get most of the "time for jesus" and all the "christian faith is under attack" emails. I do get some gems now and again, though.
here's one:
Subject: And then the fight started.....
After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for
Social Security.
The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify
my age.
I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.
I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and
come back later.
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.
So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, 'That
silver hair on
your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security
application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the
Social Security office.
She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten
disability, too!
My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion,
and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat
alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked, 'Do you know her?'
Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to
drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she
hasn't been sober since.'
'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go on
celebrating that long?'
......and then the fight started.
I rear-ended a car this morning.
So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got
out of his car.
You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things
just seem funny?
Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... he was a DWARF!!!
He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I AM NOT
HAPPY!!!'
So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are you?'
A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She is not
happy with what she sees and says to her husband, 'I feel horrible; I
look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.'
The husband replies, 'Your eyesight's darn near perfect.'
The only political email I've gotten from my mom was a few months back, it was an email that was all "TESTIMONIAL FROM AN ALASKAN CITIZEN AS TO WHY SARAH PALIN IS TERRIBLE"

hahaha, nice
i think my favorite anti-obama email was this one:
If you are a Christian, this is hard to ignore.
According to the book of Revelation, the anti-Christ: will be a man in his 40s,
of MUSLIM descent, who will come out of nowhere, deceive the nations with
persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal..... the prophesy
says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world
peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA?
I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO THINK ABOUT IT AND SEND THIS TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS WHO HAVE
THE PRIVILEGE TO VOTE. THE BOOK OF REVELATION SAYS THAT THE BEAST WILL BE
ALLOWED TO HAVE AUTHORITY APPROX 42 months (in ch.13) That’s almost a 4 year
presidency term.
Lord have mercy on us!

Lord have mercy, a secret Muslin terrorist as president?
That's funny since Islam didn't even exist when the Book of Revelations was written.
oh yeah... i actually chided my parents, cuz they're actually pretty well versed in scripture, but i guess when you are so willing to believe something, you just accept it as truth and dont check the facts.

He still lurks, it seems. He hasn't posted anything since last month, though.
Not even say, New Years?
The caption read "Is this a monumental error, or statutory rape?"
