- I'd been told that newborns usually could not track with both of their eyes at the same time, so don't be alarmed, they'd said, if your baby looks as goofy as Jerry Lewis doing one of his cross-eyed idiot bits. But the Kid's eyes were working perfectly. Her gaze tracked around the room and then settled on my face. She looked at me. She looked into me. I'd been expecting a baby. What I got was an encounter with a new soul. A complete person, entire unto herself, who was staring inquisitively at me and obviously and clearly asking, "Yes? So what next?"
 Innomen rated 40 months ago- Tripe. Hollow dialog, melodramatic reactions. Cookie cutter thought process. Somewhat like the turner diaries in my opinion. The great war with the brutal Muslim hoards. Christians have shown their brutality with as much gusto. So easily we over look the stake. I'd rather be stoned than burned alive. The wheel? The boot? come on, like Muslims invented horror, and the cute little allusion to Muslims being like Nazis was pretty telling, Godwin's Law anyone?
This work obviously seeks to inspire irrational terror. "Yea lets nuke Iraq then maybe innocent children wont be stoned and beheaded." The answer is not yet more brutal war, as this story would have you consider. The answer is knowledge, the source of all power. Reason, the thing religion seeks to destroy.
Keep stepping on atheists, see what happens.
As afar as I'm concerned a war between Christians and Muslims can best be summed up by a quote from Lord of War...
"Did you ever consider that I wanted both sides to lose?"
