By Bill Muehlenberg, published 3/4/2007

Many Western intellectualoids have managed to convince themselves that gun-toting terrorists are not a bad bunch.

Nice of 'All-' to drop in an irrelevant reference to jews in his defence of BM, "by their works shall ye know them" (RightThink parrots). But i don't think your pastor/demagog will be pleased with letting that piece of his ideology slip.

Bill Muehlenberg writes that 'the Left has become expert at turning the truth inside out.' OLO posters might be interested in truth-Muehlenberg-style. I wrote three posts on Bill's website (http://www.billmuehlenberg.com/2007/04/01/how-to-make-millions-by-hating-the-west/).

He censored one by about two-thirds, and did not publish the other two at all. Truth eh, Bill?. Bill's idea of truth is strictly limited to that which agrees with Bill's version of reality.

Bill has obviously read this thread but he chooses not to respond. His prerogative, but I find it odd. He is happy to comment on his censored blog but will not debate his supposedly facecious article here.

If he is unwilling to back his claims in an open forum. I think this indicates why so many are ridiculing him.

Come on Bill, you are better than that. Defend your assertions or face the ridicule you seem to want to provoke.

We do not need a Culture Warrior in a cowards castle, we want to debate your views. Alas I think it will not happen Hypo-Testicularitis is a sad disorder.

To Whathisname who was whining about Mr Muehlenberg not publishing your comment on his blog, you may be unaware that that's what comment moderation is for...It's quite common practice in the blogosphere to employ the device of comment moderation to block out bile-filled comments from trolls. You'll get used to it, I'm sure.
Bushbasher, the article has plenty of facts, just not the sort you like, so you employ some hackneyed leftie favoured descriptive adjectives to describe it instead. I quote: <i>pointless, snide, humorless and thoroughly dishonest</i>
Thoroughly dishonest, that's an interesting one...Isn't that the one that came into vogue when you and your team tried to con the Australian public into not voting for John Howard at the last elections?
You mention 'justice' and you want a self-confessed terrorist off the hook; you mention 'morality' and you are happy to see a deranged individual who actually talked at one point about how great it was to get the chance to hold a gun in his hand; a person who shot across the border at Indians and has said appalling things about Jews, Australians and the West in general...I guess immorality is the new morality and injustice is the new justice.
By the way, Bill's comment about Labour possibly recruiting Hicks for a candidate may not be so far from reality. If you check out Andrew Bolt's column, you will find that the Democrats in their desperation to join the new recruit-a-celebrity (as per Peter Garrett) and raise their failing election performances, have expressed an interest in that Cause Celebre and media darling, David Hicks. Now that's worth a good belly laugh.

Utter Hogwash Bill Muehlenberg. I am also ashamed that you are (if it is true) associated with lecturering anything in ethics and philosophy, or even allowed loose on learners in an Australian institution that I would otherwise respect.

Perhaps it is you who is in denial.... eh? A one who wants or needs glory, envy and or millions.

A Most Dreadful Article!

It seems anyone can lecture at a 'theological college' these days, I wonder if he gets paid for it?

I also wonder how much objectiveness one can expect from someone who believes intelligent design is intellectually rigorous?

Come to that, hey Bill, how can I land a lecturing gig? Can't be too much to it surely?
