Rick Warren: Assassin for the Lord

Rick Warren appeared on the Fox News Show, Hannity and Colmes, to advocate the assassination of the President of Iran.  I'm not kidding.  

Replying to a rant advocated the killing of a foreign leader by right wing crackpot, Sean Hannity, Reverend Warren replied that it is the legitimate role of government to punish evildoers.   He said it was in the Bible.  Really?

I don't know what Bible you're reading, Rick, but in the Bible I read Jesus is known as the Prince of Peace.  In the Bible I read, there is NO passage that would advocate killing the leader of a foreign nation.  In the Bible I read, governments create LAWS which people follow.  Maybe if RW spent a bit more time reading his Bible and less time writing trite books about a pagan holiday (aka, Christmas) then he'd know this.

Since governments exist to punish evildoers, I wonder what the Reverend would propose as punishment for the Bush/Cheney Administration.  I can think of NO ONE who has perpetrated more evil on this earth these past eight years.

MMA in the Holy Land

I've never been to the "Holy" Land and I really don't care to go.  People over there are crazy and they fight over the stupidest shit imaginable.  A bunch of monks got in a brawl because on group wanted to march around the supposed tomb of Jesus and the others wouldn't let them unless they were included.  Hey guys, Jesus ain't there!  He is risen!  I don't know if anyone told you this.  I guess this is what happens when you aren't getting any pussy and you have to chant all day.

MMA in the Holy Land!

Let me add that all this veneration of Israel and these Middle Eastern countries smacks to me of idolatry.  I don't know what people hold sacred over there but it sure isn't GOD.  They are fighting over dirt and ancient traditions that probably were made up by some swindler in the Middle Ages.  That land is no more holy than shittiest piece of land in some of the most war torn countries in the world.  Oh wait, that is shitty land in some war torn country.  

If Jesus had his way, his blood would have been the last ever shed on that good for nothing dirt. Unfortunately, His supposed followers have never been good at doing things Jesus' Way.

A world gone crazy!

We live in a world where the loudest Christian leaders preach a gospel that sounds nothing like that taught by Jesus Christ.  Nothing.

I hear them talk about the importance of family.  Jesus said if you don't hate your family, you are not worthy of him.

I hear them talk about taxes.  Jesus said give to Caesar what is Caesar's.

I hear them talk about abortion.  Jesus didn't say anything about that.

I wonder why some of these leaders even call themselves Christian because they don't seem to know that much about Jesus.

Some of the things I write may seem crazy.  I certainly hope so, at least because they thought Jesus was crazy, they thought St. Paul was crazy, they thought the Prophets were crazy.  

If I can be half as crazy as them, I'll be proud.
