There is a new source of crazy out there. A new fountain of unhinged bigotry and homophobia that won't stop. He has come to our attention, and now podcasts like Cognitive Dissonance (in this episode especially) are fighting back by calling him out for his scripture-based proclamations.
His name is James David Manning, and it's quite funny to listen to someone so fuelled by disgust and hate, and yet so completely unaware of his own misconceptions or any of the other nuances involved in being gay. Whether it's sticking to bronze age mythology or buying into crazy news stories from known fake news sites, it' hard to imagine how anyone could have fewer critical thinking skills.
His most famous quote to date, that being "There's no life in the rectum!" tells you all you need to know about this man's level of factual accuracy, and deluded way of thinking. In fact, rectums are teeming with life - microbiological life, at least. And secondly, his slavish submission to the religious virus is revealed when he assumes that "the goal of life is to produce more life". Yes, if you want to emulate a single-celled organism, maybe. But I think we've moved a bit beyond that and can now actually make a choice and make it our mission to improve the lot of others. This is a noble goal, even if we don't produce more "life" in the process.
There are no words. He knows not of what he speaks - This guy is a walking advert for atheism. We don't need to try and deconvert people when he is a possible result of a devout Protestant Christian life.
The series of videos done by Adam Reakes of the Herd Mentality podcast is a particularly humorous take of Manning's crazed nonsense. It certainly gave me a few laughs.
