The NRA, RNC and KKK all stand united against this evil , depraved effort by little brown furin people in suspiciously gay looking robes to bring tranquility to 'Merika. One representative when asked how he felt about having tranquility forced upon him said "if any of them tranquilities try to cross the border I'ma gonna shoot me one, I don't like trans of any color...especially quilities, they don't walk the way 'Merikans should". Expanding wistfully on his thoughts he said "we gonna have a meet'n tonight, a little torchlight, moonshine....come to Jesus and win the war agin the tranquilities" his eyes seemed to glaze over and his lips curled up in an unconscious rictus grin, his index finger twitched uncontrollably as if attached to a trigger.

to spread mass reasonableness and calm discussion.

Unitarian Jihad
created 04/11/05

"Greetings to the Imprisoned Citizens of the United States. We are Unitarian Jihad. There is only God, unless there is more than one God. The vote of our God subcommittee is 10-8 in favor of one God, with two abstentions. Brother Flaming Sword of Moderation noted the possibility of there being no God at all, and his objection was noted with love by the secretary.

Greetings to the Imprisoned Citizens of the United States! Too long has your attention been waylaid by the bright baubles of extremist thought. Too long have fundamentalist yahoos of all religions (except Buddhism -- 14-5 vote, no abstentions, fundamentalism subcommittee) made your head hurt. Too long have you been buffeted by angry people who think that God talks to them. You have a right to your moderation! You have the power to be calm! We will use the IED of truth to explode the SUV of dogmatic expression!"
