Comments on: If You Feel the Need to Include Wingnut Talking Points In Your Prayers… http://www.truthwinsout.org/blog/2010/01/5777/ Fighting antigay lies and the ex-gay myth Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:13:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Christine Beatty http://www.truthwinsout.org/blog/2010/01/5777/comment-page-1/#comment-15968 Christine Beatty Wed, 06 Jan 2010 00:52:10 +0000 http://www.truthwinsout.org/?p=5777#comment-15968 As a veteran I'm gladdened to see that the official policy is to discourage sectarian ministries within our armed forces. From a WorldNutDaily article posted 08/15/06: "Several dozen other chaplains also have joined together in a civilian lawsuit that alleges the Navy hierarchy allows only those Christian ministers who advocate only non-sectarian blandishments to be promoted. Those with evangelical beliefs, they say, are routinely drummed from the Navy." It would be great if some organization could create a central repository for these kinds of articles, to show how the "conservative" religious movement is anything but. They flout local, state and federal laws all in the name of their idea of God, and it's not *that* much of a leap between that and strapping on a vest of C-4 and walking into a gay nightclub. The only difference is the level of craziness. As a veteran I’m gladdened to see that the official policy is to discourage sectarian ministries within our armed forces.

Plunder their fields, and seize their assets. Cut off their descendants, and remember their sins, in Jesus' name. Amen." Very interesting, I never knew Barry was also a farmer and raised crops. Who knew he had the time? I do hope his fields are okay. Prayer against Barry Lynn: “Let their days be few, and replace them with Godly people. Plunder their fields, and seize their assets.

Encouraging lawlessness and kidnapping. Remember when conservatives stood for law and order? Real conservatives must realize that the Religious Right is corrupting their movement. If they were smart, they would part ways. This is outrageous. Encouraging lawlessness and kidnapping.

I'm amazed anyone who gleefully looks forward to the End Times, and by logic, mushroom clouds over New York, Baghdad and other 'godless' places, is allowed anywhere near the military in the first place. Especially as the president of Iran, which is now approaching nuclear status, does too. Why did it take the military so long to kick this nutcase out?
