Jane Fonda talks about how she is 'riveted' by faith and why feminism is what Jesus taught
From her longtime political activism to her Oscar-winning acting, Jane Fonda has never done anything halfheartedly, and she brings this characteristic intensity to her faith. When she talks about "feeling the presence of the Almighty," her view of Jesus, and the way she prays, her voice wells from deep within her chest. You may know this voice from her films (among dozens of others: Barbarella, Klute, On Golden Pond, and currently in theaters, Monster-in-Law), or from her aerobics videos ("feel the burn!"), or from film reels from the sixties, when she spoke out against the Vietnam War. Fonda, now 67, spoke with us recently about her spirituality.

As long as you continue to advocate abortion, you can say anything you want - but those who know, know the truth about you.
I guess you could say she was baptized with a face full of Red Man.
What a boatload of Barbara Striesand.
This is the lady who works with the "V*g*n*s Vote" campaign. *Rolls eyes*

The quality of her voice is just like it was when she was ACTING in mostly cheesy films.
Is she still lying about having met Hanoi Johnnie Boy back when he was the VVAW's organizer, she was it's main funder and they were both speakers at the same meetings? She ain't no Christian.
Fonda:" I always assumed it was as an atheist. Looking back now, I guess it was more an agnostic upbringing. My father's parents were Christian Science practitioners."
The Almighty asks for us to respect life, and honesty, and sexual morality, and truth. He gave us scriptures. He died for our sins.
If you deny life, deny morality, deny the truth taught, then what are you believing in? An idol built in your own image...
Oh my nerves, I wished I hadn't read this when I had a mouthful of coffee...I'm still having to clean between the keys with a cuetip...LOL!
First Hillary, now Jane. What is the deal with these leftist broads?
With a mouth full of Red Man `Golden Blend', & needing badly to expectorate, am considering covering my keyboard with plastic.
Actually it's the other way around. Fonda was first. Hillary didn't discover she was religious until 2005.
you mean "face full of red BULL" doncha? the whole articla ie bull of some sort.
I'm thinkin' that ain't your call. I'll leave it to JC.
I think feminism is another way of teaching what Jesus taught, that we are all full human beings with the right to have our humanity seen and respected.
Gag me.
She also drops the name of Elaine Pagels, the apostate of "The Gnostic Gospels" fame, as one of her spiritual mentors.
If she is a Christian, I'm from a small planet near Betelgeuse.
Jesus said "You will know them by the fruits they bear."
Funny. She has the right to express her thoughts on religion and Christianity because of the sacrifice of soldiers like the ones she helped torture in Hanoi. What a B****. Anybody got some Red Man - I need to learn to chew.
HAH! True. I'd forgotten.
Wow, that vacuous expression could make a Hoover green with envy...
Jane, you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
She's also a person who says that she really hopes for a Hillary Clinton presidency, though she doesn't think it will happen. I read that in Time magazine the other day . . .
You beat me to it. The absolute First Thought that went through my mind was Liberation Theology....
If you want to check up on a real wacko, look at some of the writing by Manning Marable. Noam Chomsky is a weirdo, along with a truckload of other liberal nut jobs. One of the big time Old Money guys (an economist -- name eludes me at this second) is a control-oriented Socialist.
The Left is totally insane. Throw the "anti family" agenda into the mix and you have a really strange world view.
They all worship other "gods"
No one really cares SPITOON JANE.
If she is a Christian, I'm from a small planet near Betelgeuse.
Exactly. I was suspicious with all of the 'Jane Fonda found God' talk. Now we know that she is a Gnostic fool for sure. I'm sure she loved The DaVinci Code as well...
Uh-oh. Sophia's back. And I think we under-estimated her/him...
Priceless! May we use that as her new moniker?
I am "riveted" by Hanoi Jan's treason. She has a lot of explaining to do for extended stays for some (now ex-) POWs and potentially some that were killed.
She makes a great NVA psyop poster child, that I will concede. And that's all I am willing to concede.
"Christianity is my spiritual home?"
I think I'm going to be ill!
What these clowns will say to sell a friggin' book!
Haven't the alimony checks been coming from the nutcase Turner???
You still are, sweetheart.
Little Janie knows a few of the cliches of religiosity and "churchianity," but throughout her interview, she has absolutely no reference to Christ. And without Christ, no one is a christian. "Feelings" and "upwellings" and liver-quivers are meaningless.
Sorry, Jane, you're not credible. You've had no conversion. You have been a feminist, and now you think you can be a christian feminist.
Reminds one of Mickey Cohen, the gangster. He got "religion" like Janie, and thought he could be a christian gangster! It doesn't work that way!
What's Red Man?
Oh Paleeze! She can't even properly take-up arms against her own countrymen. And she certainly doesn't understand atonement.
Chew.
Which produces an excess of saliva...
Some use the excess saliva to, shall we say, paint targets of opportunity.
This is controversial, but it can happen!
Hanoi Jane is a Christian. Now I've heard everything. Nowadays every celebrity is finding RELIGION. Except that it's the religion that they define themselves. I have also heard that there are abortion doctors that claim to be Christians, just as there are practicing homosexuals that claim to be Christians. Yes, and Adolph Hitler also called himself a Christian.
You can call yourself whatever you want but that doesn't mean that you believe it. They only do it to gain acceptance.
."Sophia ? NOOOOOOooooooooooo !"
I wonder where her spiritual vaction home is.
this ass can go stand in a garage....does that make her a car ??
As far as I know, she's only had the one head and the two arms, nor has she ever referred to herself as "Phil".
I thought her spritual home was the Hanoi Hilton.
I just remembered: John Kenneth Galbraith. Here are some quotes, although he has more "winners" than these:
"The man who is admired for the ingenuity of his larceny is almost always rediscovering some earlier form of fraud. The basic forms are all known, have all been practiced. The manners of capitalism improve. The morals may not."
"Liberalism is, I think, resurgent. One reason is that more and more people are so painfully aware of the alternative."
"It would be foolish to suggest that government is a good custodian of aesthetic goals. But, there is no alternative to the state."
Interesting article on Galbraith.

I am willing to bet that Hanoi Jane agrees with Galbraith and would probably take things a step further (outright Communism).
Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!
>>Jane, you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
There's a book or movie quote for every situation!
Well, as the saying goes, "The devil is in the details", and now we know. In 2Tim 3:6, Paul talks of false prophets in the end times who ...creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts... Poor Jane seems to fit the bill as one of those "silly women."
