Never mind Salman Rushdie’s _Satanic Verses_, or claiming that we’re descended from apes. Post something here that will **really** set the lynch mob after you. Example: The Star Wars Christmas Special is canon. ---

Wesley Crusher was the best character ever out of all the series and movies of Trek. Han shot first. Willow is unattractive to either sex. Poco is better than Toto. ---

OK. Muhammed was a warmongering psychotic. Jesus was gay, and his visions and assertions of godhead were the result of ingesting psychotropic herbs. St. Paul was a deep cover agent for the Sanhedrin, assigned to distort the Jesus sect from within so that Jews would reject it. He got in a little too deep, and the plan worked a little too well. There is no magical sky pixie, and those who require such a belief in order to behave decently are morally inferior to those who do so on their own. Gautama Siddhartha was a libertine con man who deceived his followers into sacrificing their goods to him in hopes of acheiving a mystical state of perfection. ---

Bill Clinton was one of the best DEMOCRATIC presidents we’ve ever had. 😃 Jimi Hendrix was a hack guitarist who used studio tricks to make his music. Boston will never win the World Series.

_Tolkien_ made better works than the ‘The Lord Of Rings’ when he took his morning dump. _Peter Jackson_’s pinacle was **Bad Taste** , and his LOTR trilogy was simply encoding pure crap into cinematic crap. ---

Star Wars wasn’t very good. Except those prequel things. Those were the best movies ever made. Jar Jar Binks is the funniest character! SNL is WAY better than that Monty Python crap. Especially these last few years. Garfield, BC, and Family Circus are funnier than any other cartoon published today. Piers Anthony is one of the leading writers working today. I feel so dirty. ---

Lord of the Rings was boring, dorky, and the most overrated movie series I’ve ever seen. Vegetarians are overly sensitive hippies. The Atkins diet is ridiculous. Sexual harrassment lawsuits are stupid and way out of hand. Michael Jackson gets a bad rap. _Ducks and runs for cover_ [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/blasphemy/240524.md?page=2)
