Yeah....... no other beliefs or religions other than christian would be important in THIS country. Thanks Faux for the update.  We do need constant reminding of that.  *sarcasm*

Yep they got such a strong, immediate response they ripped it off their own website which is why I had to go find the videos on a blog somewhere.    *eye roll*  Good ol Faux eh?

It amazes me that in this day and age people still think that they can suppress something on the internet just by deleting the original source.

They are journalists like the Weekly World News was news. They are nothing but a corporate version of the 700 Club.

If I were that cat I would kill the person who did that to me and then commit suicide. I could see that cat thinking "If anyone sees this I'll just die". LOL

Oh don't worry. I'm sure the owner of that cat had an involuntary circumcision.

Cat's are always trying to do that anyway.

Wow, they continue to lower the bar on stupidity.

Did you notice they were saying that 20% of the holidays in the handbook are Wiccan, then the other guy says "I'd like to get 20 holidays!"  FFS, 20% is not necessarily 20.  But hey, pretty much everything coming out of their mouths was incorrect, so no surprise.

The stupid..... It hurts my brain.  I love how they are talking about "Pagan holidays being 20%".  You mean like Christmas (Yule)?  or Easter? Yes, I can see them getting 20% when you put holiday's into context.

Well, nothing says that your god is almighty like complaining about other, threatening holidays.  Pretty soon, they're gonna have to make people pledge allegiance to him along with the flag.

Oh, wait.

I lost it "tradition in this country [presumably, the separation of church and state which Fox Noise periodically attacks] is what allows people to be Pagans and Wiccans and to enjoy their lives freely.  Good luck doing that in any other country".   :|

Yeaaahhh...Wiccans and Pagans actually can freely practice their religion in many other countries.  And historically, that's sort of what they were doing before the Christians came...

And if you dominist assholes keep it up, they definitely won't be able to practice their religion in this country.

So yeah...fails all around.  Great job.
