MANILA, The Philippines (Reuters) - A Philippine judge who claimed he could see into the future and admitted consulting imaginary mystic dwarfs has asked for his job back after being sacked by the country’s Supreme Court.

“They should not have dismissed me for what I believed,” Florentino Floro, a trial judge in the capital’s Malabon northern suburb, told reporters after filing his appeal.

I'm afraid I have to agree. Perhaps the more intelligent religionists out there can explain this to me, but if this were to happen in America, and the three mystic beings he consulted were named Father, Son and Holy Ghost instead of Moe, Larry and Curly or whatever, half the country would be in an uproar. How DARE his religious beliefs be criticized?

Ala James Randi and his million-dollar prize, I'm awarding a million-eyeroll prize to the religionist who can explain to me in rational, logical terms why THEIR religion is correct but THIS guy is insane.

Why does the Huffington Post gratuitously censor people?

I've posted many times at HuffPo under my "Sundog" byline. Some of it is a little rough, yes, but nothing more rough than you'll find me saying here. Nearly all of it gets completely censored.

So why does Huffington Post censor outspoken liberals while leaving slime from conservatives up? Does Deepak Chopra read my blog or something?

Allow me a moment of hubris. If a blog is too cowardly to post my comments, it's too cowardly for you to read.

HuffPo is not a legitimate liberal website. Take my advice and don't post there. Support blogs like TPMCafe that don't censor people who have something to say.
