Alive! Newspaper.

Yes, you've read that right. In an attempt to demonise RTE and show that secularism is an evil godless religion, the idiots writing articles for Alive have gone all weak in the knees over a recent spat between Miriam O'Callaghan and Choudary on Prime Time (in the February issue).

Describing Miriam as a proponent of the "secularist religion" and "trapped in a narrow, secularist view", despite herself being probably the most catholic and conservative of all RTE presenters, in a bloated contest Alive! has lambasted the views of RTE and the western world.

Some highlights:

Alive! wrote:

This was not a clash between secularism and Islam. As Choudary could see and O'Callaghan failed to see, it was about deep contradictions in secularism itself, issues we would still need to face, even if islam did not exist.

...

What kind of morality, for example, is enshrined in the "live and let live" value system? [a damned sight more than Alive!s one] Does justice or care for the poor fit into it? [given that Alive! is writing from a conservative catholic view, which hates justice and thinks the poor are there because of their own failings, this is a strange line to take] Does "let live" include the unborn [does the "pro-life" views of anti-abortionists mean they support the lives of living women over not yet living clumps of cells? Don't be silly, of course not. Life is only precious before it exists]

...

Modern secularist ideology has lead to as much evil as any system in history [a blatant lie, but then again Alive! has never broadcast the truth]

And my favourite, a veiled threat that all those who don't share Alive!s (lack of) values will be killed:

The Paris attack brought forward that day of reckoning. RTE staff urgently need training in how to challenge this ideology [secularism]

How ****ed-up is this? Let me count the ways:
1) Alive! is cheerleading an advocate of mass murder.
2) Alive! is cheerleading an advocate of intolerant racism.
3) Alive! is cheerleading an advocate of religious war, and the killing of non believers (of his personal religion).
4) Alive! is demonising the one system of governance designed to protect their religious freedoms.
5) Alive! is championing a man, who, if he ruled Ireland would have them all put up against a wall and shot, or worse.
6) Alive! is calling Mrs. O'Callaghan a secularist.
7) Alive! is grossly libelling secularism.
I could go on.

Pineapple or chicken on a pizza are the worst sin imaginable.
