There is no religious left....Just leftists like Besen trying to confuse naive Christians.

The religious left obviously hasn’t read this passage:<< Ecclesiastes 10:2 >> The heart of the wise inclines to the right, the heart of the fool to the left.

Who does he think the mainstream church is these days? The old mainline denominations, which are who he probably has in mind, are bleeding out like Sonny Corleone.

The event was hosted by the American Family Association, a Southern Poverty Law Center-certified hate group. Certified? By the most hateful organization on the left? The Southern Poverty Law Center? What a joke.

We desperately need to answer this question before Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin defile America - and permanently define Christianity. When the Hell did Perry, Bachmann, and Palin get the power to "permanently define Christianity"?

Liberals think that religion ought to be about politics. Some major world religions don't condemn homosexuality as much as others - but NO major religion is FOR homosexuality. You might be right, Brilliant. This guy is confusing religion with liberal politics...

Mainstream Christians who oppose the Word of God are not Christians at all.

Here’s my question for the left...why is it that most AIDS hospices around the world are run by “hateful Christians and Catholics”?

In August, fundamentalist preacher Dr. Michael Brown organized a regimen of red shirted Bible-thumpers to infiltrate Charlotte's gay pride event. Hundreds of zealots confronted and harassed festival attendees with their arrogant slogan "God Has A Better Way." The hatred and religious bigotry was appalling, but not surprising.
I'm not sure if I should be hurling or laughing! Can he fit any more epithets into his rhetoric?

That's the faggots' gig. As anyone who has ever witnessed a Fag Parade would know.

Political organizing is only allowed if you are a libtard, pervert, illegal, gimme lobbyist or lunatic. The rest of us should just shut up and tolerate it. Otherwise, we are bigots. < / sarcasm >

“What would it look like if mainstream churches fought back against the Religious Right?”
They would fail the same way the priests of Baal did against Elijah the Prophet of the Living God. They wouldn’t be fighting men, they would be fighting God.

Ecclesiastes 10:2 >> The heart of the wise inclines to the right, the heart of the fool to the left. Great verse. I need to write it down and give it to my highly educated Phd left-wing marxist commie pig boss from UW-Madistan. By the way, won't gays & lezzies & liberals & lefties be surprised to see the extreme "intolerance" from the muzzies against homos & lezzies, if the muzzies are successful quest on their world wide jihad & servitude of non-believers. I believe that gays & lezzies & socialists will experience first hand the extreme hatred & persecution from the muzzies.

Exactly what I was thinking.
“Defile” is a strange word to choose.

The Bible does have a way of putting highly educated know-it- all’s in their place.
