    Lies My Pastor Told Me

    The Christian Anti-Defamation Commission (CADC) is a not-for-profit 501(c) (3) Education Corporation whose purpose it is to become the first-in-mind champion of Christian religious liberty, domestically and internationally, and a national clearing house and first line of response to anti-Christian defamation, bigotry, and discrimination.

    As America slides down the slippery slope into secular abyss, Christianity itself has come under attack. Nowhere is the assault on religious liberty more ruthless than in our schools. Just last month, a malicious little atheist forced a Rhode Island high school to remove its students' inspirational prayer from the wall of the gymnasium.

    But one brave man refuses to stand by as the secular state annihilates our childrens' religious liberties. Rev. Gary L. Cass, president of the celebrated Christian Anti-Defamation Commission, has recently launched a new organization called DefendStudents.org, which is dedicated to defending religious liberty in our schools.

    A quick glance at the DefendStudents.org website reveals the group's tremendous efforts on behalf of religious liberty:

    6,000 Students Exposed to the Depraved Truth about Muhammad
    December 13, 2011
    Last week we had our very first coast-to-coast outreach. DefendStudents.org was active in both California and Florida, reaching over 6,000 students with the truth about Muhammad. We had a very successful maiden launch of our Defend Students campaign in South Florida.

    Radical Islam Infiltrates Florida Public School
    January 18, 2012
    Controversy has erupted in Tampa, Florida. A public school teacher was discovered inviting a terrorist sympathizer into the classroom to give pro-Islamic lectures for the last three years. Hassan Shibly is from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, CAIR, who is known to have ties with the Muslim Brotherhood. Their stated goal is to impose Islam on America by sabotaging the United States.

    Islamic parents found guilty of murdering daughters

    In Canada, a jury found Muslim parents guilty in the murder of their daughters and the husbands other wife.

    EXPOSED: High School Student Club Linked to Terrorism
    February 3, 2012
    A team from DefendStudents.org went to Northwood High School (NHS) in Irvin, California to confront the Muslim Brotherhood. NHS is one of the few schools that we know of that has a Muslim Student Association (MSA). It is a matter of public record that MSA’s are directly linked to the murderous Muslim Brotherhood.

    Secular progressives will try to convince you that the Christian right is a hotbed of intolerance and that its leaders' complaints of Christian persecution are just a mask for barely repressed bigotry.

    Dr. Cass's righteous efforts to protect religious liberty disproves these vicious lies.

    We must get the government and the courts out of our schools so that our children will be free to practice their Christian faith without being ostracized or demonized for their beliefs.

    That's so spot on, I'm not sure if it rises to the level of Poe's law. If I didn't know you, I would've easily missed the "Humor & Satire" tag.


    Yeah, I may have read just a tad too much religious right propaganda. But I thought that the title would give it away.


    Hmm.  And then there is:

     

     


    My favorite example of Catholic Church hypocrisy comes from the 1977 battle against a Miami law to protect gays from employment and housing discrimination--the dispute that made Anita Bryant so notorious.

    The Church opposed the law, of course. The Archdiocese of Miami expressed concern that allowing gay men to teach children would be like letting "a fox in the chicken coop."

    "Church Kept Accused Priest on Job," Miami Herald, 3/23/03


    Well done, Genghis. I'm reminded that the kinds of deviant behavior the Christians were accused of by the Romans remain in their playbook today to use against others. 


    I went to the link for the Christian Defamation Commission and it took me to their About Us page.  I actually got chills looking at that page.  White and black and blue, small, tight, no-nonsense print. . . It could have been a prop in any movie ever made about dystopian societies. . .Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World,  1984. . .no surprise, though, that it is real.  And not a bit funny. 

    It took me a while to be able to laugh again, but by the end of your post I could at least smile a bit.

    Someday I'll thank you for sending me there.  Right now I need my hot chocolate with a slug of Bailey's.


    Bless me Father for I have sinned.

    It has been 18,257 days since my last confession and these are my sins:

    I quit praying to God since he never seemed to get around to even whispering to me let alone grant my petty wishes.

    I continued to keep playing with my junk or getting myself into some situation where some fine maiden stepped into helping me in my path towards belief.

    I never entered into some adulterous ventures myself; but I certainly was quite taken by certain married women with nice racks and succulent behinds.

    I never stole anything during all this time although this might have been due to the fact that I recognized no real facility in this area of professional acumen; although there were times when a friend or an enemy might have wowed me with his new wheels!

    I never murdered anyone (except for those two guys outside of Reno that one time when my ownership of a lottery ticket was at issue) although I did wish at times that certain individuals might be hammered to death with baseball bats.

    I have at times denied the goodness of the Lord (as it were depending upon how that term is defined).

    I have cursed the very existence of certain individuals during this hiatus but then again, I have cursed my own existence more often. (this is an estimate of course since I never was very good at keeping records on this subject.)

    I have blasphemed when the spirit has moved me--which is no more than ten or twenty times a day.

    I never had much honor for my father or my mother but dad died prior to my escaping the clutches of the church. I certainly never honored his memory.

    THE PRIEST: Say three Hail Mary's and a good act of contrition. Then go ahead a purchase a small caliber pistol and blow your frickin brains out.

    Hail Mary full of grace

    The Lord has made you a single mother and we are never going to let you become a welfare queen regardless of you silly explanations...

    NOTHING IS REVEALED

     


    Those guys in Reno.... You sure you didn't do it just to watch them die?

    Also, for those in the Twin Cities region, it is now acceptable to offer up 3 Hail Harmon's as an equivalent to 3 Hail Mary's.

     


    Harmon died for chrissakes.

    I went thru a list of folks dead in 2011 and I was going to blog about some of them.

    Harmon was God in my neck of the woods; growing up. I do not know how many times I have bored people with the fact that in 1961 I was present to view Mantle and Maris and Harmon hit home runs in the same damn game. We lost of course.

    Nowadays it is hard to find heroes who do not have some political taint.

    Harmon was for Truth, Justice & the American Way.

    The old Washington Senators had come to Minnesota.

    Decades later we win two World Series!

    Heroes.

    WE NEED MORE HEROES!


    Reno? Shot a man (or two) in Reno?


    Cut him slack, Q. Way he tells it, he did not shoot the deputy.
