It truly does, and someone has caught us out and published a stunning exposé that reveals the horrible, awful behavior that our goddess, Nature, endorses. You must read “God Hates Checkered Whiptail Lizards!!!” and weep. This is but one page of a devastating revelation.

I was married to a checkered whiptail lizard once.
Good times.

I understand this god is also not fond of a poly-cotton blend or a prawn cocktail. This deity is a fucking idiot. Please provide a more sensible omnipotent being forthwith. If not fifthwith.

I got as far as ” homoerotic bulldyke carpet munch humping ” before realising this is a Poe. Good parody though.

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh I can’t decide which sentence I love best, though I have to say claiming that lizards are members of a “cult” has got to be up there.
Satan sure is fucking busy though, have you ever read Biological Exhuberance by Bruce Baghemil? yeesh, there’s enough in there to make to tremble under the covers clutching your holy bible and godless flashlight for dear life….

I think the clearest giveaway was asking someone to read the bible with the lizards. Christians don’t read the bible, they have Larry King read the pre-approved parts on tape.

Mmmmmm…. now that’s good satire.
It’s almost too clever. I can picture some southern communities organizing a “Checkered Whiptail Whacking Day”.

But isn’t that behaviour pretty-much what happened to Adam and his presumably genetically identical rib?
The rib got bigger, changed sex and they bonked.
So the Bible must have been written by lizards (or perhaps Eddie Izzard, since he does rhyme).

Some one needs to collect images like this and combine them with ones from home school “text books” and create a quiz. Poe or Home school

The Poe’s Law is definitely strong with this one. It really is hard sometimes to tell the difference between satire and complete evangelical nuttiness.
This is a good one.

No, mastmaker. A poe is when it might be for real. This is very clearly a parody.
A similar one from many years ago:

McCthulhu, now with Techroline and Retsyn, #6,
Stilton-Upon-Melbatoaste? Noooo. That’s near Cumberbatch-Over-Whimsy and the charming village of Bumsex*. Fifthwith is closer to Whackedorf-Under-Bridges and Throbbing-Cum-Lightly.

It’s just more fun to say “poe” than “parody”. Poe, poe, poe, poe. See? Try it.
And it gives you that ‘in’ feeling from using a shibboleth, even if misusing it proves that you’re actually ‘out’.

Dorsettroll – They’re lizards. There’s no carpet to munch. If you’d said “homoerotic bulldyke Linoleum-waxing humping” extravaganza” you’d have a point

Not only should we read the bible to them but specifically Deuteronomy 23:13:
As part of your equipment have something to dig with, and when you relieve yourself, dig a hole and cover up your excrement.
And Mark 14:51-52
A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment, was following Jesus. When they seized him,
he fled naked, leaving his garment behind.

Actually biology *did* teach me that sexual deviancy is normal. I remember learning that we’re the deviant ones as most of the life on earth reproduces by asexual reproduction (and that even in sexual reproduction there’s tons of variety).
When they mentioned the lizards “alternate between roles of husband and wife” I just had to laugh at using the terms “husband” and “wife” for animals that don’t get married. I also couldn’t help but think of how limpets (or maybe I’m confusing them with some other gastropod) and their sequential hermaphrodism would cause major pearl-clutching.
Oh biology.

I saw one of these a few months ago at a vineyard west of Austin, which is around the eastern edge of their range. Quite an attractive lizard.
Animal ssex and reproduction sometimes takes strange forms indeed. Consider theAmazon molly, a kinky relative of he popular aquarium fish. They are all female and reproduce by parthenogenesis, but they need to mate with a male of another species to initiate cell division in their ova. They usually mate with P. latipinna, the wild strain of the fish we fishkeepers know and love, but they will even mate with Gambusia if nothing else is around.
That must be amusing to watch as a female molly is about 8-27 times the weight of a male gambusia.

But there must be a carpet, Proverbs 31:22 says:
“She has made a carpet for herself” and since there is no he lizard, it must refer to the she lizard.

Anyone know where to get a PDF or hard copy?
Re: Rude Britain, I was an American non-werewolf (sadly) in London a few years ago. Riding the Tube one evening, there was a young couple across from me whispering apparent sweet nothings to each other. The automated PA system ran through a list of stops at regular intervals. Every time it came to “Cockfosters”, the young man would giggle and splutter “Cockfosters!” Maybe they were putting on an odd show for the tourist, but I was amused to see an apparent native get such a kick out of it.

Pseudocopulation. I need to find a way to drop this word into a conversation and impress my friends. And perhaps Cockfosters, too.

Well, the lizard still has legs, so God must be OK with what it’s up to.

Buccal Pump @ 11;
I know what you mean. It seems sadly inevitable that, somewhere, there will be a truly hardcore xian fanatic reading this and thinking;
“Amen, brother! Time to give those devil-worshipping reptilian perverts what for! No shoes, no tie, no endothermic physiology – no service…”
