Republican presidential campaign blasphemous |
|
http://www.wvgazette.com/section//200410071Webster defines blasphemy as “profane or contemptuous speech, writing, or action concerning God or anything held as divine.”
Blasphemy is running rampant in our country as this election campaign proceeds, trivializing holy things as it moves on. The latest instance of it was the distribution by the Republican National Committee, in West Virginia and Arkansas, of a brochure with a picture of a Bible with the word “banned” across it, and another with the hands of two men with a wedding ring with the word “allowed” across it.
The implication is that the election of Sen. John Kerry would lead to the banning of the Bible and the approval of same-sex marriage. Those who distributed the brochure know that the claim is not true and not possible. The first amendment to the U.S. Constitution would not allow it, and Sen. Kerry’s election would not lead to it. The brochure is not only insulting to the intelligence of West Virginians, targeted to the stereotype of Appalachians as “dumb hillbillies,” it is blasphemous; it is profane and contemptuous writing concerning God and the Bible.

2. And they are buddies with the blasphemer cult leader Moon |
|
The 'Rev' Sun Myung Moon controls the Washington Times, a right-wing rag, and has had ties with Reagan, Bush Sr, and bush jr. His cult has gotten money from bush jr's administration.
Moon says he's the Messiah and his cult is doing this 'take down the crosses' campaign. Some churches have actually taken down their crosses because of it. This year he was crowned in the Senate building by a congressman. Alan Keyes was there.
I kid you not, there's some posts here about it.
