The latest last word on Scans_Daily
Hand of God Suspends Homoerotic Scans Daily Comic Book Community:
Our research shows that kids who are allowed to read comics are 13% more likely to get infected with gay inducing spirits and have a STD by the time they reach college. Staggeringly, this percentage jumps up to a frightening 34% when teens are allowed to read bits and pieces of comics online.
And that’s where Scans Daily came into play.
Amazingly, the authors put more effort into that post than those who claim that scans_daily boosted sales overall.

This stuff would be funny, if it weren't so scary. This was the comment I left on christwire.org:I've heard that nearly 100% of the children infected with gay inducing spirits have had a drink of water! Take a look at your research and you will find that nearly all of those people who advocate the homosexual lifestyle also drink water! The numbers are staggering. Oh, they don't make it part of their literature. But I'm convinced that water is part of the Hidden Gay Agenda! The fact that christwire.org chooses to ignore this crisis leads me to believe that you are also part of the Gay Conspiracy!Seriously, Karen Gray mentions "our research" and "our sources," but she doesn't mention what that research is or who those sources are; that seems like shoddy journalism. It's so shoddy, I can't even call this journalism; it's more like propaganda.Why are you giving the credit for shutting down scans_daily to "The Mysterious Ways of Divinity"? (And shouldn't that be capitalized if you are talking about the Lord?) Isn't it possible that the Lord had touched the lives of some of the scans_daily community? There were more than 8,000 official members. Couldn't ANY of them have been doing the Lord's work? After all, Christ broke bread with the unclean, prostitutes and tax collectors. You won't save any souls if you refuse to interact with sinners.You seem to believe that the Internet is an unclean place. After all children are 34% more likely to be infected with "gay spirits" if they are connected to the Internet. Really? What does that term "gay spirits" MEAN? I'm not just faining ignorance. I really don't know what you are talking about. If the Internet is such an unholy and profane place, why is christwire.org here? Aren't you tainted by the very fact that SO many use the Internet to promote "gay spirits"?If some gay comics on scans-daily taint the whole community of scans_daily, shouldn't some gay porn on the Internet taint the whole Internet for christwire?Are ALL comics sinful? Why? Is that viewpoint base on Scripture? Prayer? Or just a hunch?I don't see how christwire can stand in judgment of scans-daily. It just doesn't seem very Christian. Y'know, let those without sin…Haven't you read the Book of Job? Not every bad thing that happens is a reflection of retribution by "The Mysterious Ways of Divinity." And the Lord has said that you are very WRONG if you think that you know His every intention. "For now we see through a glass darkly." Does any of this sound familiar? You don't have all the answers. Just because the name of the site is "christwire," that doesn't mean you've got Jesus on the Mainline!You don't KNOW it was the Lord's Will to shut down scans-daily. It's arrogant at best to claim that you do know, and it may be sinful at worst.
Are we sure that ChristWire isn't just a big, elaborate pisstake, along the lines of that fake NYC newspaper recently?I mean, i checked out a few other articles from links on the page, and i found:a "Christian review" of the new Wonder Woman DTV film. Scientists create gay pink dolphins (with oversize blowholes, no less)a rant about a potty training gadget that encourages parents to "rape their children's bums" Marvel promotes homoerotic toy (Were you fishing around the site, too, and found this?And a warning about an Evil Gay Alphabet Propaganda Video
Oh – and Sarah Palin caught wearing sexy hooker boots!"The liberal media is rejoicing as Sarah Palin, the woman who found her way out of the Alaskan kitchen and almost into the seat of vice-presidency (before her family's sin ruined noble John McCain's campaign), has once again made a very questionable fashion decision."{snip}"Todd Palin needs to demand that she wear things more tasteful, such as long wool skirts and high collared blouses. She should be required to cook and clean several days out of the week to help keep her grounded."There is a great battle taking place for the heart of this woman creature. In 2012, if her heart stays in the light, it is through the miracle of this brilliant woman that the G.O.P. will once again start its march of morality. If her heart is sullied by darkness, surely, the GOP will not have its great rebirth from the bosom of Sarah and the Democrats will continue to destroy America, and then, the already lost world."That has GOT to be a pisstake.
You're right, it's a "piss take." But I will admit, I was fooled by it at first. (I really don't have a great sense of irony.) Unfortunately it's just too close to reality. There are too many sincerely religious people who believe homosexuals should "pray the gay away." There are religious groups that stage protests at the funerals of US Military Servicemen, because they feel the deaths of our Military are God's retribution for our nation's sins. It's enough to make the bile in my spleen curdle. Yuck.
And there are biker clubs composed of vets who come to funerals and non-violently interpose theselves between the nutjobs and the funeral parties.(I think that's really just one "religous" group, consisting almost entirely of one jerk and his large family, BTW.)
My assumption is that it's a gag. However I can't say I'm thrilled that some jackass posted a message in the comments section using my name, reveling in the demise of the site. Anyone with half a brain would know it's a fake, but honest to God, at this point I don't feel I can take anything for granted.PAD
Oh, don't you just love dorks like that?
