Sarah Silverman's new PSA to raise awareness about the “From V to Shining V” national pride day for women, is going to make some on the Religious Right fit to be tied.

Courtesy of Mediaite:  

In a new PSA that is guaranteed to anger some Christian conservatives, Jesus tells Silverman, “Fertilized eggs aren’t people, people are people.” But, he adds, “people who believe fertilized eggs are people are people too. You have to love them. You’re not better than them.” 

From there, Silverman goes on to say that “using religion to dictate legislation is un-American, but it’s happening.” The goal of the video is to raise awareness about the “From V to Shining V” national pride day for women, which is being organized by Lady Parts Justice on September 28th, 2014. The group is aiming to set up rallies at all 50 state capitals; Silverman will be leading the one in Concord, New Hampshire.

Yep there are going to be Fundamentalist panties in a twist ALL OVER the country in response to this. 

Which of course is exactly why I posted it.

Oooh, I'm such a stinker.

    I love that comment.

    Only one problem, I think. While the idea of rallying women is great and attempting to get others to understand what Jesus ACTUALLY preached is also wonderful, getting these ass holes to UNDERSTAND that is not going to happen. For the most part they will accept ONLY what their preachers tell them Jesus said

    1. That’s a brave lady and I hope she stays safe. She’s pissing off a lot of people. I admire her deeply, but she needs to choose her friends carefully and watch over her shoulder.

      Amen, Darlene, Amen.

      In fact, I am beginning to get a little afraid of these assholes. They will be getting violent again soon and people like her and we non-believers will be at the head of their lists.

    3. Don't forget that WE have 1st Amendment rights as well as 2nd Amendment rights to back up all our rights that our constitution promises all of us as Americans. I'm going to continue to stand my ground against loudmouth bullies, rapists, and perverted fundies who try to intimidate my friends, family or anyone else who's on the right side and needs my help. Yes, the 'Holier than Thou' idiots will whine and complain, which is their M.O. because they are fearful cowards who react to emotion instead of reason.

      Fuck those assholes who don't get it. Nothing changes the attitude of a bully faster than to stand up to them face-to-face and don't back down. I don't mind listening to the whiny, bitchy little men because it's entertainment and a good laugh usually shuts them up. Be Bold. Be on the Right Side. And Have a Plan.

  2. O/T...Gryphen did you see this?

    Little Tripp will remain in the primary care of his mom Bristol Palin, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

    Alaska judge Gregory L. Heath, who was appointed to the bench by Governor Sarah Palin in 2009, last week dismissed Levi Johnston’s petition for equal custody of the four-year-old.

    As Radar previously reported, Johnston, 23, filed a petition for custody last October saying Tripp should be in his mother’s and father’s lives equally.

    The couple had otherwise agreed when they split in 2010 that Bristol, 23, would have primary physical custody

    Link to the rest....

    1. Krusty and the Palins (& Heaths) are nothing but punchline material.

    I LOVE this PSA! I just watched it on Facebook before seeing that you had posted it, Gryphen. I "liked" it but refrained from sharing it because half of my husbands family already believes I'm going to hell. If they saw this they would perform an exorcism on me. Ha!

    Luv Sarah S.! This message will make it through to some of the younger kids whose religious fanatic parents are trying to use the same, age-old guilt-and-hellfire garbage to make the young-uns as miserable as they are. "I'm Jesus Fucking Christ!" ROFL!!! The only thing Sarah could have done to push the envelope further is to present Middle Eastern Jesus as he really was, and not the blond-ish, "Bleeding Heart" portrait version with the piercing eyes. But I guess that's part of the parody...

    EXCELLENT!!!! Expect Sarah to dig up her Star of David medallion and go ballistic on Jesus Christ.

    I can hear her now; "We crucified you for a reason, dammit" -and- "Bristol/Brancy/Piper, get him on the phone! He's ignoring me!"

    I'm surprised that she missed noting that Viagra was always covered by med insurance when birth control meds were not.

    I love this woman.....she is an original and talented beyond funny. This county's greatest hopes rely on the younger generations ability to put hate in its place and equal rights for ALL.

    Sorry Natalie Portman, Sarah Silverman is now the love of my life. Assuming, of course, that it's cool with my wife.

    Sarah Silverman's a riot. I love the part where he's looking at lolzcats and she's doing his hair/beard. Then she asks him "When does life begin?" "At 40".... Too funny!
