Fundamentalist Christian rancor and hate, Part III

James L. Lambert is the author of something called "Porn in America," and "a licensed nationwide real-estate mortgage loan sales agent." Wow.

He writes for OneNewsNow, too.

Lambert says if you voted for Obama, you put Obama before Christ! "...it seemsthat many people who claim the Christian faith are casting their religious values to the curb in favor of being able to claim a role in 'a historic event.'"

Yep. That's what he said!

But how could that be? Well, it's all about abortion and those pesky homosexuals.

Lambert quotes one Rev. Adlai E. Mack, "senior pastor and founder of Christians United Church in San Diego: "If you're willing to sacrifice your babies, your children, and your business for Mr. Obama, you have that choice...

"If Obama wins, the babies lose. If Obama wins, your children will be discipled by homosexual [activists] in the public schools. If Obama wins, small businesses will suffer. Raising taxes would be the worst remedy during an economic downturn."

And not to forget, Obama is really, really "liberal." And he's pro-choice! And he thinks gays should be allowed to be married!


Most of this is horseshit, but nevertheless, this ethically-challenged "Christian" poses the question to his fellow "Christians" -- "Are you willing to put Obama before Christ?"

Argh!

P.S. I talked to Jesus today, and he told me that those who voted against Obama voted against him, and obviously don't love him anymore. He's going to cast them in the fiery pit! Hey, that's what he said!

Fundamentalist Christian rancor and hate, Part II

Star Parker, "syndicated columnist," also writes for OneNewsNow. She loves Jesus, too. The trouble is her Jesus is a figment of her imagination.

How else do you explain this black woman's attempt to assassinate the character of President-elect Barack Obama?

Obama is a socialist, according to Ms. Parker, and he tries to cover that up with the "Obama oratorical fog."

Obama has big plans to use "the tax code to redistribute wealth." How will he do this? "He's got about $700 billion in so-called refundable tax credits in mind, direct money transfers to individuals, to finance his social engineering ideas in education, childcare, and environmental policy."

Is that all? Mein Gott, I thought he'd also "socialize" medicine - at least. And take over the banks. Oh, I forgot, Bush already did that!

Parker says "We're talking about a trillion dollars in new government spending to pay for his government-directed schemes to deal with just about every aspect of our lives."

All of this means "our country becomes more socialized and, by definition, less free."

Sorry, Ms. Parker, go back to school. Socialism is an economic system that by definition, has nothing to do with freedom. Freedom, or the lack of it, is a function of a political system!

Nevertheless, Parker whines that Obama's "vision of America ... has little to do with the vision of its founding because so many Americans are now detached from and uninformed by the documents that defined the country -- the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bible."

The Bible is one of the documents that defined our country? Please! Go back to school again, Ms. Parker, 'cause your full of ... well, you know what! And while you're at it, read the Declaration and the Constitution again, yourself, 'cause you really don't have a clue!

Because Obama's a socialist, says Ms. Parker, instead of protecting individual liberty and guarding against "intrusions on our life and property," he'll begin intruding wholesale on our individual liberty and our life and property.

Then, Parker really goes off the rails. She's afraid that Obama will appoint judges who will actually care about the poor, the sick, and minorities and might make laws to help them. She quotes a bible verse against such a thing: "Do not glorify a destitute person in his grievance." Whatever the hell that means. She doesn't reference the verse so it's hard to put it in context, if, indeed, it even appears in the bible.

What's the problem with caring for the poor, the sick and minorities? Well, says Parker, "Our biblical tradition, which is clear that we should love our neighbor and give charity, is also clear that courtrooms are the place to objectively apply law and not for politics.


The woman is a moron and biblically illiterate. Unfortunately, too many people will read this trash and believe it.

Fundamentalist Christian rancor and hate, Part I

OneNewsNow is an adjunct of The American Family News Network, which probably tells us all that we need to know. OneNewsNow is part of a phalanx of right-wing Christian fundamentalist outlets that promote exclusiveness, prejudice, and hatred on a daily basis; all for Jesus, of course!

The target for Christian hate is now President-elect Barack Obama.

Here is one example.

Someone named Jane Jiminez, a freelance writer and ex-elementary school teacher, writes in a column titled, "Style over substance," that we cannot believe what Obama says. Obama is all style, no substance. The "package [that Obama] delivered to voters is beautiful," says Jiminez, but boy, unwrap that package and you'll find all kinds of evil stuff.

Here's what Obama is really all about, according to this woman who knows not Jesus, nor ethics, nor truth:

"Partial-birth abortion and infanticide, ensuring that babies die who 'accidentally survived abortion,' will be finally and permanently entrenched as lawful 'choice' in America."

No more "choice" for people who want to use tax money to send their kiddos to private/parochial schools.

Obama will "cultivate the already glowing approval of Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, Hamas leaders, and Louis Farrakhan, all of whom praise Obama's politics."

We'll have an "activist" Supreme Court which will make law, not interpret laws [kinda like the Supremes who handed Bush the presidency in 2000?]

Real marriage will be over; no longer meaning one man and one woman. [Did you ever wonder why god allowed those ancient Israelite males to have damn near as many wives as they wanted. And Obama wasn't even born then!]

Those who want to became citizens will need only to "'show up' at a window to fill out paperwork.

Taxes - boy, they're gonna go through the roof!

American jobs will move overseas.

We'll soon have a really bad national healthcare system - like they have in Canada and England.

Blah, blah, blah.

Almost everything this so-called "Christian" loony-toon writes is false. I guess her Jesus made her do it!
