Rutgers Professor: Religious Right Worships a Fictional, ‘A**hole’ ..it gets worst..

Christianity’s tent is not big enough to accommodate both the supporters of Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act and Rutgers professor Brittney Cooper, who in a Wednesday piece for Salon blasted both the state’s pre-fix RFRA and the religious right in general.

“This kind of legislation is rooted in a politics that gives white people the authority to police and terrorize people of color, queer people and poor women,” declared Cooper. “That means these people don’t represent any kind of Christianity that looks anything like the kind that I practice…This white, blond-haired, blue-eyed, gun-toting, Bible-quoting Jesus of the religious right is a god of their own making. I call this god, the god of white supremacy and patriarchy...This God isn’t the God that I serve…He might be ‘biblical’ but he’s also an asshole.”

Lots of people have these opinions. Why on Earth are they given any press at all? Especially a conservative news site? Ignore them as you would a disheveled babbling fool walking down the street.

Just keep talking. That's 10,000 more viewers who will never vote Democrat again.

The only problem with this kind of speech comes when they try to pretend they never said it.

What an unattractive creature. If anyone looked like her their entire life they’d be warped and embittered too.

(Note my Christian charitable attitude on display here.)

“Never saw such hate in my life time,”

You haven’t visited the middle east, Boston or San Francisco ?

Not the middle east, was referring to the anti God crowd in general.

“The Jesus I know...was a radical, freedom-loving, justice-seeking, potentially queer (because he was either asexual or a priest married to a prostitute), feminist healer, seduced neither by power nor evil...”

Then, woman, you don’t know Jesus.

I am male, 58, single, celibate and VERY heterosexual.

Jesus didn’t HAVE to be either asexual (if he was tempted in all things such as I am, he was certainly not asexual) or married to a prostitute, you bigoted, heretical pile of hot........air.

You make gross assumptions about Christ that are neither appropriate, nor supported by the facts. But then again, you are liberalidiotic.

BTW - the God of the Bible was decidedly capitalist, you Scripture-ignorant, heretical moron.
