['Am I the only one who thinks the quotes (on Liberals Say the Darndest Things) are completely lame? They should be self-evidently funny, but most of them have Republican_Legion's commentary behind them to literally explain the humor behind them. Its not a funny joke if you have to explain the punchline.)
Most of what they [FSTDT.com] post isn't "self-evidently funny". It's not even "self-evidently" "darned". It's just stuff that they don't agree with. In fact, I dare say that they have extremely low standards for what they consider "darnedest" comments. Most of what they lampoon are things that would seem rational & sane to NORMAL people.

Now a counterpart. Well, I would submit a lot of material if I could translate. Anyway, we are all humans and commit mistakes but, honestly, I have checked the context and believe me, they are serious. Of course, they are a minority, but they are not normal to people. Or do you imply that it´s normal to advocate for a theocracy in the USA or that there is no separation between church and state, or that Catholics are not Christians(just to mention a few)?
No, you didn't just say that! If the majority of the fundy statements that are posted here for review and comment are things that would seem rational & sane to ANYONE, we are in more serious trouble than I thought possible.
That's probably true as long as you get to be the one defining "rational," "sane" and "normal."
And, let me point out one of the darndest things was the guy who claimed that, since the moon was closer to the earth long ago, the dinosaurs were "mooned" to death.
He's just got no sense of humour. Or perspective.
Oh, and look at that - they put a password on it, to deprive us of those hilarious logical fallacies that those gosh-darned liberals are so prone to making. Gee whizz.

@Republican_Legion
Yes, free advertising for your brave and open forum in which the truth is held in the highest regaurd. Oh, wait, no... Thats the site that closed everyone who dissagreed with them out and deleted even the sensible and fairly nice posts made by those who oppose them.
Oh, and look he banned my IP.
If I thought it was worth it I'd spend the 5 seconds to change it. Hell, if I really get moody you'll have to ban the majority of the country.
Republican_Legion, please sign up for an account, then wait for us in the preaching & worship room! Thanks.
BTW, you would not be the first fundie at FSTDT, and we've only banned one so far.
DCoke:
As of my banning they had all of 7 real quotes, the responses to which were all quite stupid, and torn apart amazingly fast by a horde of posters from here the other day.
Oh, and legion, I don't see anyone bitching about the 1st amendment, I see people making fun of you, some inviting you to join our open forum, and at least one person mocking you for your complete lack of ability to deal with something against you.
Simply put, you failed. You gave many people a brief amusement, and then tried to seal it off leaving them to just come back here to mock you.
Yes republican legion, because all those with different opinions are clearly part of some retarded club. Wow, I don't think I have ever seen such a grown man acting like a five year old.
Has it ever occured to you that you can have your opinion and let others have their opinions as well??
Well I hope I dont let all of you down by telling you that the purpose of LSTDT was piss you people off.
We know. I'm not sure it would have been possible to do so, though. There are some DU folks who might well deserve a Hall of Shame for themselves. You quote them, and I'd be laughing and/or cringing as much as I do here. Instead, you made fools of yourselves by picking quotes that were neither astoundingly stupid nor disturbing. The only difference your incompetence made is that instead of laughing with you at the stupid things liberals occasionally say (and yes, there are some - we've even had a few on here before), we're laughing at you.
Plus there is a value of pleasure knowing that you people are bitching about the 1st amendment and this and that.
??
No one here is bitching about the First Amendment. You do have the right to ban people at your forum for whatever reason you choose (including none at all). That does not make you immune to criticism and/or mockery for doing so. We have as much right to say what our opinion of your administrative policy is as you do to establish said policy.
Why is NORMAL capitalised? Is it an acronym?
Narcissistic, Obnoxious, Racist, Myopic, Angry Loonies?
If you think the things posted here are 'rational', 'sane' or 'normal', than you are none of those things.
The reason you don't get it is because you are in it.
Boy, Republican_Legion, you sure ripped us a new one! Wait, no. I was just trying to make you feel better about being a whiner. You didn't piss me off because you wouldn't let me in without registering. I rightly concluded that you were not worth my time, some of the other posters her on fstdt stated that your site was a pathetic joke and so you were forgotten. Piss me off? No way. You probably would receive my scorn or pity, but it sounds like your site is but a bump in the road. If you had some funny stuff I would check it out, but you just seem weak and sad. "Retarded" was the best you could do? Tsk, Tsk, sad indeed.
When I tried to enter the site and was asked to register I got pissed. One point for Republican_Legion. Now, If you are so kind to copy/paste some quote here so I can get even MORE pissed, I'd thank you.
In a way, he is right. There isn't that much funny here. Darndest, for sure. Outright bizarre, indeed. But not always funny.
The last sentence is pure bullshit.
Most of what they lampoon are things that would seem rational & sane to NORMAL people.
Rational and sane to normal people? Let's go to the instant replay for a small sample just from the current month:
I think we need to have Christification camps open up through the country, requiring mandatory attendance for people who chose to believe in false religions.
the KJV is the original writen by gods chosen people, and the NIV, NKJV, ect...was writin by lesbians
...everyone is born Christian. Only later in life do people choose to stray from Jesus and worship satan instead.
[on the location of heaven] ...it is on top of earth, and is about the size of the moon. An interesting fact is that this moon sized object of gold will land on earth.
so in "theory" 9.999...=10 ... yeah, how is mathmatics falsifiable... when i'm afraid our number system has a glitch.
To me, religion is evil. It is manmade and man-centered. I have a belief. A belief in My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
The Baptist church is the one that Jesus began when He was here on earth. ... No other denomination was started by Jesus....they were all started by fallible mortal men.
I'm a Constitutional scholar. You are out of your league here. The fourth is the right to bear arms.
If it were not for creation science you would not have linguistics, geology and archeology as you do today. As well as many other branches of science that have historically been heavily influence by creation science.
if someone opposes homosexuals, they are called terrorists
When you mutate it is because you did not believe in Jesus, the One by whom all things exist and are created (John 1:3). If you had believed in Jesus you would be able to exist without needing to mutate. Neither would you attempt to mutate because you would be living as you were designed to live.
[regarding the shooting of Amish schoolgirls] Westboro Baptist Church said it is "continuing to pray for even worse punishment upon Pennsylvania.
[why medicine is unnecessary] I prefer the healing power of Jesus. All that is required is some faith.
If evolution is true where is the evidence? Where are the half man half apes stuck in the evolution process? How come monkeys are not still evolving say 10 a day into man?
Foley was a democrat operative, no doubt sent in to provide a "Black eye" to the party he was misrepresenting. However the facts are on the table, he was a Democrat.
Theres no such thing as gay people, Im tellin ya. Its a falsafied orientation purpetuated by the media and hollywood.
It doesnt matter about history friend, if it contradicts our theology... lets rewrite history!!!
[Regarding the Westboro Baptist Church] They are a ploy, Actors hired and used by the ACLU to use the name Baptists and cause Christians to look bad and ultimately I believe to cause a lockdown on religious freedoms.
@Tempus
I consulted an expert about our good friend republican_legion here, and here's what he had to say:

Just hope this clears things up a little :-)
Tempus, Your'e the man now, dog.
Julian has forgot to use its famous ano-gential logic insult. Now, be a good ano-genitalist and use your sado-masochist cartoonist, to reveal your prickly logic to choke to death that poster named Mary.. Remember, Many sided math problem, you need to choke Mary to get your "esteem up". Remember when you used all those ano-genital cartoons which centered on ano-genital sadism? How they reveal your inner self devoted to violence and sex? Your mommy is calling Julian and she wants to make you understand how she made the ano-genital area one which must thought of as a area which must be attacked with physical violence.
Look mommy, cussin ted is describing Allah's people who are holocaust deniers,racist and genocidal maniacs. (Post 103481)Or is cuzin ted just a liberal dhimmi who glady pays the jizya?.
Those fundy dhimmi's say the darndest things and will always do the bidding of Allah.
This just in: The words normal, rational, sane, and darndest are defined only by longhornplatinum's opinion.
Liberals Say the Darndest Things, hmmm, just a matter of time until I found one of these. Not surprising at all.
Really? Because I once read a post from an MRA who thought child prostitutes should be blamed for being raped. It's not funny, sure, but if it seems "rational and sane" to you, you should probably get some heavy psychological help.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
