Frank Schaeffer is the man

Thank you for post this, and this interview. Frank Schaeffer is telling the truth. As you can tell from other comments posted here the "Fruit Loops" are alive and well and can turn on a computer.

A nice outline of why atheism is growing and why so many atheists continue to debate fundamentalists! This hate filled group of right winged fanatics MUST be stopped! HOWEVER, I will keep my guns...;)

@gareof I do not go by Black or white binary philosophical constructs--that's for simple minded people who live within a dogmatic bubble. Heart of the wise goes to those who think rather than "believeth" in BS that's all sorted out for fools like yourself by Faux network and "Repiglican Stink tanks." I don't buy the religious BS, & all the Racist & Nationalist craziness that goes with it. I'm bombarded with your lies 24-7 a week & am not convinced nor persuaded.

@tomestubbs Eccl. 10:2 "The heart of the wise inclines to the RIGHT, but the heart of the fool to the LEFT." You Fool, you should take some time to actually LISTEN - but I'm sure that will never happen...

@indkeith Praise Satan for inventing stupid people like your self. You have no clue about what's going on you watch Fox network owned by Rupert Murdock who made millions from pornography and an Arab who finances suicide bombers. The worst Satanist is the type that is oblivious to his own ignorance. The repiglicans serve only the rich, not you. Get a clue!

@gareof You are an idiot! Try reading the Constitution, it is based on Enlightenment Principles not Christianity. The founding fathers were Deists and atheists and they did not want any element of Christian totalitarianism in our Constitution--They had it with their Christian King George and the East India Trading Company.

obama's administration WILL tank . . . VOTE in 2010 to get rid of every democRAT lying, senator & congressman - obama is taking the country towards communism - which way do you want to go Frank - Godless socialism or Godly Constitutionalism?

[dorothySay]

Go Frank. He's angry sure, but there is so much merit to what he's saying-- and the fact that this is the son of Francis Schaeffer gives him added credibility-- he KNOWS this group from the inside..
