Why I use Clipmarks
I maintain a news community on LiveJournal, and this will be a great place to get some really interesting stories. I also find it fascinating what people are obsessing over day by day.

My clips will range from deep to tabloid. It's a crap shoot.

Since I cannot upload from work, I save clips during the day and Email the URLs home. So, you will usually get an end-of-day deluge.

Crazy right-wing myths about Obama 2.0
ratilfar
by ratilfar  6-8-2009    2
 Cont.... Myth: Obama plans to resettle hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in the United States. Who's spreading it: One of the original sources of the belief might have been this Feb. 7 article. New Media Journal is a news site run by a nonprofit group called BasicsProject.org, which states that its mission is to "re-introduce the American public to the basic elements of our constitutional heritage while providing non-partisan, fact-based information on relevant socio-political issues important to our country, specifically, but not limited to, the threats of aggressive Islamofascism and the American Fifth Column." The diatribe below, posted on Snopes.com, seems to have started as a post on Wizbang that picked up the claims in the New Media Journal article. It also turned up here and here. What they believe: "President Barack Obama has signed an executive order ... allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to resettle in the United States. Sure, what can go wrong when w

 A somewhat misleading headline indicates Americans are finding rationality when in fact they are simply changing their perception of what they think Christianity should be. Could this be a harbinger that eventually they will see the scam of religion for what it is? I wouldn't bet on it.

Why is Gay Marriage a Civil RIghts Issue?
Spiritualmonkey
by Spiritualmonkey  1-6-2009   
  This is why refusing communion is not a violation of civil rights - because communion is not a civil contract, it does not confer civil rights or responsibilities, and is therefore not a matter of civil law. I will say it yet again. Your laws that say same-sex couples can't get married are the same laws that say they can't eat shrimp or cut their beards. Which is fine and well for you, but I'm going to continue to enjoy my crab louie salad bare-faced without even humoring the idea that I need to protect, defend, and preserve your "sanctity of brunch". It's about civil rights, plain and simple. All your arguments about "Tradition" and such are nothing more than religious bigotry in flowery dressing. Be a bigot if your god calls you to be. But we will fight you when you try to make your bigotry law. And we will win.

Christians called to abandon public education
spirithiker
by spirithiker  12-29-2008   
 Exodus Mandate Project is advocating the abandonment of public education because public schools adhere to the constitutional doctrine of separation of church and state. This doctrine is not inherently evil, if parents want to teach their children according to biblical mandates they have that right under the very same constitution. To say that America’s children “are trapped in the state-run public schools" is preposterous. The 14,000 hours of “pagan, godless public schools” is not teaching ‘against’ any religion. It does not ‘involve’ any religion. That is what church, synagogue and mosque are for. The government does not deny anyone a religious education nor do they deny access to church. Moral corruption does not begin in our public schools. It begins at home in the bosom of the very families this whacko organization is trying to ‘save’. Don’t demonize the constitution and the public school system because you can’t convince your followers to practice Christianity.

Dalai Lama's New Reincarnation Technique
cakebelly
by cakebelly  11-24-2008   
 continues: The Dalai Lama has even suggested reincarnating as a woman. I find it incredibly interesting that the Dalai Lama, a being who’s existence spans at least fourteen lifetimes, is now reincarnating only in free countries in order to stay free of the grasp of the ancient empire which seeks to trap and control him within it’s borders. That is, of course, unless he chooses not to reincarnate at all and instead transcends to a higher dimension. I certainly hope they aren’t using Dielbolds to count the votes in that referendum, it would be an easy way for the Chinese to finally remove the Dalai Lama from this level of reality (at least for a while). What’s especially interesting about this strange game of espionage and rebirth is how important it actually is to the future of Tibet, China, and the rest of the world, as well as to the lives of the individuals involved. In 1995, China showed how it would deal with the reincarnation issue if they didn’t agree with a Tibet
