Pastor Dan Freemyer prayer at Baylor Graduation, "Deliver us From Straight White Men & Fossil Fuels"

Baylor University Prayer Denounces “Straight White Men” FROM TODD STARNES: “God, give them the moral imagination to reject the old keys we are trying to give them to a planet that we are poisoning by running it on fossil fuels and misplaced priorities – a planet with too many straight, white men like me behind the steering wheel while others have been expected to sit quietly in the back of the bus,” the minister prayed.

Did you notice the cheers from the crowd?

A friend from Get Religion sent me a link to an exclusive story about the prayer written by Rod Dreher, a fine writer for The American Conservative.

“THIS IS APPALLING,” DREHER WROTE. “WHOEVER WOULD HAVE IMAGINED THAT ‘STRAIGHT WHITE MEN’ WOULD BE DENOUNCED IN PRAYER AT A BAYLOR UNIVERSITY GRADUATION CEREMONY? I WONDER HOW MANY STRAIGHT WHITE MEN ARE BAYLOR DONORS? I WONDER HOW MANY STRAIGHT WHITE MALE AND FEMALE PARENTS OF HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THIS SIGNAL, AND LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR THEIR CHILDREN’S CHRISTIAN COLLEGE EDUCATION?”

How do they heat and A/C that place? What does he drive? How does everyone get to church? Does he allow white men in?

Maybe if straight white men went on strike these guys would realize the error of their ways.

That is where WE have to start.

Start cutting the money off until these Universities start at least being a little less hostile to ‘us’.

Can you even think of someone addressing a mixed crowd and replace ‘white men’ with women, Blacks, Muslims, Jews etc etc.

I guess this guy gets his ‘progressive’ stripes because he did say ....straight white men LIKE ME, so the ‘in crowd’ will say he included himself so it wasn’t hate speech, then again that could be considered Self-flagellation - in their warped mind.

My cousin is a Yoga instructor. She is in her mid 60s and looks around 40. She is also a practicing Christian. Yoga is exercise.

Someone should have it siphoned all the gas out of his tank while he was wrapping up. Prayers do get answered!

He needs an intervention and a nice, soft padded cell.

It’s time to cross the Rubicon. These guys are asking for real trouble and we’re way too forgiving.

I suspect if he offed himself he would not be offing a straight white male.

"Deliver us From Straight White Men & Fossil Fuels"

Somebody needs to toss him into an electric car with a couple of horny gay dudes.

Probably be a life changing moment for him.

"Did you notice the cheers from the crowd?”

He didn't get a "standing ovation, just a small portion.


It is not a standing ovation unless Chris Wallace declares it to be one.

The “Pastor” Freemyer’s of the world are why I gave up on organized religion when I was in my twenties. The religion on which my wife and I were both raised formed one of the rationales for our marrying, but soon after, we realized that we had been “bull$hitted” from infancy about the importance of “our religion” and “staying true our faith.” It doesn’t matter what faith it was, in our minds, ALL of it was BS! And BTW, we will be celebrating our 53rd Wedding Anniversary this coming December, and we married 5 months to the day from the day we met! We hold to a basic belief in God and Christianity and don’t want any part of those who “run the God Businesses,” which is what churches really are. I am all done having someone who is at best no better a person than I am, telling me that “I am not good enough, but with his help and a helping of my money. he will make me a ‘better person.’” It is not rocket science to live a good life. Either you choose to do so, or you don’t. The kicker is that our children have all thanked us for not shackling them with the crap on which we were raised. All three of them and their spouses are good people, raising good children. I think God is proud of them too.

White men and fossil fuels,eh? Easy to be delivered. Use nothing white men have created or sell-no assistance at all. And turn off your electricity and get rid of-and don’t use-cars,buses,trains or planes. Commence to walking and biking and living in the dark. VOILA!! You are delivered!!!

White men built this country while black men were living in huts in the sands of Africa.

Leftist infiltration into the Christian Church is how they want to destroy it. I can imagine some Leftist think tank sitting around smoking pot and devising such demonic schemes while high and laughing hysterically. Yoga classes come after the trip for munchies.
