KO needs to lay off the "witch hunter stuff" a bit.

[Perky]

Not saying it not completerly irrelvant. But an African Pasto laying hands on someone is certainly normal in Africa and it is not exactly "abnormal" is these parts earlier. Africans have for ages believed in people with special powere. It is culturally normative there.

[TheKentuckian]

1. Witch hunts however have been out of favor for a bit now.

[OneGrassRoot]

2. I didn't watch KO, but the clip I've seen is probably strange for most...

the whole "witchcraft" aspect of what the guy is saying and the laying on of hands. It'll freak Catholics out.

[Ichingcarpenter]

3. Nope.... its creepy and also anti-Wicca

[godai]

4. Witch HUNTER, not witch doctor.

I believe this guy tracked down a 'witch' in Africa.

[populistdriven]

5. Did they burn her?

[godai]

23. It was mentioned on KO that women have been murdered.

Apparently women are harassed, threatened and even killed in these witch hunts.

[populistdriven]

29. We need a well-funded 527 to go attack with this

[DefenseLawyer]

6. Wrong.

Most people in our "culture" don't think witches cause traffic accidents.

[book_worm]

7. you're right, but if McCain goes with Rev. Wright, I'm glad we will have this tape of Palin

to counter.

[City Lights]

25. I read here earlier today that some scummy 527 is running Rev. Wright ads in MI.

:grr:

[MarjorieG]

8. Suggesting they/believers infiltrate gov't and positions of power relevant.

[backscatter712]

9. Oh, hell no!

Show no mercy to Caribou Barbie and her crazy-ass preacher!

[CakeGrrl]

10. The point he was making was: Why isn't this getting Rev. Wright levels of coverage?

He and his guest commentator (I forget his name) discussed the fact that the witch hunts in Kenya are sometimes not without casualties and are not a very esteemed practice.

Aside from that, he posed the 'What if this had been Obama standing there?' question. Indeed.

[BlooInBloo]

12. This OP doesn't like ANYTHING that's pro-Obama - don't waste your time.

[high density]

11. After Rev. Wright I would have to say... No.

[GrizzlyMan]

13. Yeah, well let me know when the good folks in Kenya and Zimbabwe get a say in this election

Talking about witches is NOT normal here and I doubt the folks who will be utterly creeped out by this know a lot about the nuances of African culture.

[renie408]

14. Uhhh...NO. That is some weird shit and after all the crap about Wright, I think

the guys is fair game.

[BumRushDaShow]

15. Muthee is not an animist. He's doing this as a supposed "Christian". He's a cultist. n/t

[Manifestor_of_Light]

16. KO Said he persecuted the woman in Kenya.

KO said the pastor "threatened the woman with bodily harm and ran her out of town".

That's pretty much a direct quote.

That is very serious.

[BumRushDaShow]

30. Yes I know.

And same answer to you multiple posts! :rofl:

But my response was to the OP about practices that are supposedly "normative" and in this case, this is not "normative" (when applied to modern-day Christianity).

[Manifestor_of_Light]

17. delete, dupe

27. Well... that's one way to make your point.

:rofl:

[Mz Pip]

22. Sarah Palin was a willing

participant in this nonsense. It needs to receive as much attention as Rev Wright received.

[endthewar]

24. Idiot armchair campaign strategists.

What's next? Should Obama stop linking McCain to Bush, just in case everybody in the country falls in love with Bush over the next month? :eyes:

[Cosmic Charlie]

26. oh no. anytime we have a video of Palin being touched by a dude chanting about witchcraft

we are going to use it!

[Starry Messenger]

28. On the contrary.

This needs to go viral.

[Liberalboy]

31. The Burning Times happened once....

As a witch, I'm all for exposing this wacko and her priests....I really would prefer not to get burned at the stake again

[Kahuna]

32. Roooiight.
