Wisconsin Worshippers Revolt

Try as I might I have not been able to find any stories about Christians rioting in the street, torching embassies or killing opposing clergy in response to the Osama Bin Christ. Apparently those Christians just don't care about their God as much as some other religion I could mention.

Luckily Iowahawk is back from wherever the hell he was and is exposing the response of truck driving, beer guzzling idiots in Wisconsin, to cartoons recently posted by a Texas newsletter.

It's hard to believe that Wisconsin was once a place of relative peace.

...outside of the Dells and a handful of violent outposts near its western Mississippi River border, Wisconsin remained a relatively calm exception to the Midwestern maelstrom surrounding it -- a fact that experts attribute to subtle differences in culture and religion.

"Unlike the ultra-extreme, radical Lutheran sectarians of Iowa and Minnesota, most ethnic Wisconsinites belong to the Wisconsin Lutheran Synod," said Joseph Killian, a Midwestern Studies professor at Emory University in Atlanta. "And if you add in three Super Bowl titles, easier access to beer, and walleye fishing, and you're going to have a much calmer and more stable culture."

Portrayals of the prophet Vince Lombardi in a cheese-bomb hat though, have perhaps changed things for good.

After the NFC Championship game in January, WTMJ radio in Milwaukee broadcast a newly surfaced audiotape of Duane Gunderson on the Wayne Larrivee Packer Report, in which he urged Packer faithful to "rise up against the mockers of the one and true coach."

"Those who sow the curds of blasphemy will reap the cheddar wheel of destruction,” he added cryptically.

This violent hate speech has led to a violent backlash by the most violent elements of Packer Jihad. Be sure to read it all. It is extremely important that the reality-based community be made aware that violent Americans, or at least violent Wisconsinites, are in no way superior to protesting Islamists. Except, of course, for the fact that the Islamists aren't our problem.

On the other hand, Wisconsinites and all diety worshippers in the vast empty space between New York and L.A. our very much our problem. Today they are exposed for what they really are. For that, we owe a Texas newsletter a debt of gratitude for having the courage to expose the seedy underbelly of Lombardi fundamentalism.

Thank Gaia for free speech. The Chimp has no chance in 2008. Not after this.
