NEWS: Reverend Magdalen and the Right to Fake Faith

This is why Flux rocks!
Apart from that... yeah religious bigotry, and just plain prudery, is alive and well it seems.

Welcome Flux!

All hail Cthulhu!

Dammit, I wish I'd thought of this when I was at university.

"Mentally ill" and a "pervert," because of the practices she's chosen, which are utterly harmless? That just pisses me off, and the appeals courts sticking with it is even worse. A habitual drunk driver is a better parent than a woman who marches to a different beat to these people; what utterly infuriating bullshit.

Damn, you beat me too it....

That said:
May the Schwartz be with you!

Great article.

She's a fine mom, I mean, they're wearing safety goggles in the photo! What more proof do we need.

Fucking Catholics.

Yeah, no shit, right? I wonder whether this judge would have had balls enough to hand down a similar decision if the wife were a Jew, Muslim, or Hindu.

She's awesome, this is is bullshit. More than religion, this is a ruling against people with children to make ART, if some judge doesn't like it.

PRABOB.

How, the fuck, is the ACLU not all over this?

But are they really?

Fixed that for you.

are we even real?

maybe all of the gods ever imagined are just a bunch of buddies from an alternate san diego who got really stoned after gym class and collectively dreamed the entirety of history, subconsciously weaving themselves into each other's trips to form a world with a pantheon -- an idea that's way far out to their version of the universe.

if so, they're going to have a hell of a story to tell when they wake up in a few minutes.

Ftahgn!!

What really bothers me too is , at least in the pictures you linked to Flux there doesn't seem to be any various states of dress or undress at all.
She's wearing the same outfit in every shot of what appears to be obviously a deity themed costume contest. The costume is really less revealing than a bathing suit, and while on a glance looks like just mesh, on a close look even a senile old Judge should be able to tell there is a skin colored garment on under there.

What.The.Fuck.
I'm guessing that her son was not at this gathering with her ?


Now this chick . . .

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

ha ha ha !
I might worry for her kids mental health !

wait, cthulhu's fake? oh shit, sanity restored!

Things like this make me want to renounce my faith...

...Then the Great Gerbil bites me on the neck, and I remember to stay the course.

Heh. You worship all those linguine and tentaclly things all you want.

Me? I am going to start a Flux cult.

count me in.

Which of the activities that she participated in is not protected?

Who gets to determine which faiths are "real"?

I would guess that the only ones who could deem them real would be those who follow them.

But then again, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy were very real to me at one point in my life too. I was a huge supporter of both.

the ones whose faiths are real, duh.

real faith? oxymoron?

but having faith makes it real
