POPSWatch Out Heathens! You'll have to travel over to the main site to take advantage of the fun. Here's some examples: I hope you will be cast onto a steaming dung-heap, O ye creature of the pit! Behold, thou shalt be swallowed by a whale with excessively bad breath, O thou son of thunder! Thou shalt see your pomegranates wither, thou incompetent tax-collector! I pray thou shalt be pursued into the mountains by sex-mad baboons, thou babbling Assyrian!

POPSEaster Not a Christian Holiday Like Christmas, it is "christianized" paganism. Why do modern Christians say "happy Easter", and glorify a pagan deity? Because of their mass indoctrination by corrupt churches, and family "traditions", imitated blindly. It is another merchandisers holiday, very lucrative, both by consumer products companies and corporate churches.

POPSChaldean archbishop seized What could possibly be the reason for kidnapping this fellow and killing his aides? Are religious differences the cancer of the human race? Did god tell them to do this? Did the archbishop's prayers not reach god? Was god listening at all? What would have been the result if there was no god? Why do we let this virus infect the human mind?

POPSTennis in Dubai -- to rj3sp I loved your pictures of Dubai and was reminded of these photos I had seen a couple of years ago. They're horrifying to me. My legs would not even hold me if I were that high! I was reminded of the Assyrian, Babylonian and Persian Empires of the ancient world and their amazing and elaborate architecture. They are rising again.

POPSArabs and Islam have no culture. Very well documented and referenced essay refuting the existance of original Arab or Islamic culture, science, literature. Islam is a method of mind control attempting to put the human race back into the dark ages. Burn a copy of the Koran today!

POPSTragic Escalation This is another tragedy burst open as Iraqi society loses its coherence. But do not think that these Islamic militants are barbaric or insane. That would be just as wrong as saying the same of the American soldiers. They are simply one more crowd caught up in a moral earthquake. They are enveloped in a conflict so savage and so pervasive that it obscures the horizons. Like a giant storm, from with in there is no memory of normal life, and no one can see out to the sunny world of peace and happiness. One atrocity builds upon another untill there is no sanity left in the world at all. Having unleashed this conflict, I can't help but feel we all bear part of the responsibility. Not just the conservatives who didn't think through the consequences of their actions. Not just the liberals who only made empty symbolic gestures of resistance. Even myself, who was too proud to compromise and participate when I might have made a difference. And now I am heartbroken.

POPSIraqi blog: Iraq The Model Iraqis read and watch US media: “Evacuate all houses in the area around the Americans’ base for we shall attack it soon… Those occupiers will soon be gone from this land. Who will protect you then?” These were roughly the words in a leaflet the “mujahideen” distributed in Adhamiya a few days ago.
