The Wonderful World of Magical Thinking IV

The week in fundie . . .

*How many conspiracy theories can you wedge into the cashew-sized brain of your average Texan Republican State Congressman? Pharyngula has the answer. (More at Bartholomew's Notes on Religion)
*This can't be legit. Read the Minnesota House Bill HO224. (Via Pharyngula)
*Ann Coulter and World Net Daily breach Godwin's Law.
*Catch the Fire's Danny Nalliah claims to have raised the dead. (Brian's Blog, 15 Feb '07)
*A Georgian couple are facing murder charges after exacting corporal punishment on their 8-year old son which resulted in his death. The couple belong to the Remnant Fellowship Church, which preaches strict disciplinarianism and fad dieting, and when their son would not join them in praying during an online church service, they locked him in a small wicker box and secured it fast with electrical cord. The boy died from asphyxiation . . . and we are all left to muse on the wonders of magical thinking. (Via Morons.org)
