Yuk. Argh. etc. Riding on the back seat of the international interest in the atheist bus<\/a> campaign, “christians” are trying to take some advantage. Here was the deeply unpleasant<\/del> committed “christian” George Hargreaves in the Guardian<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(I put “christians” in quotes because I don’t recognise any of the positive aspects of the traditional christian denominations in these ranting zealots. I still cling to a wishful-thinking belief that christianity isn’t always just about being a twat. )<\/p>\n

Hargreaves toned down his message for his audience, of course. So he only exposed Guardian readers to a criticism of the money spent on bus ads. He failed to spot that it was shooting himself in the foot to then say that the “christian party” were about to do the same. Plus, he got in a jibe at the BNP, knowing full well that any Guardian reader will be spitting blood at their very existence, so he tries to trade on the “enemy of my enemy is my friend” effect.<\/p>\n

The christian party<\/a>, huh? Who are these christian politicos? Followers of Martin Luther King<\/a>, Philip Berryman<\/a>, Pastor Niemoller<\/a>, Paolo Freire,<\/a> maybe?<\/p>\n

I think you’ve maybe already guessed it, no.<\/p>\n

It turns out that their politics is as subtly nuanced and intelligent as their concept of christianity (*heavy sarcasm alert*) Look at how they greeted Obama’s election for instance:<\/p>\n

But the greatest black politician the world may YET see – or the greatest black scientist, greatest black artist or the greatest black sportsperson – could under Obama\u2019s presidency never have the chance to be seen – because Barack Obama would have had them aborted before they ever had the chance to be born (from http:\/\/-insertedcrap- www.christianparty.org.uk\/cmsparty\/ website)<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wtf? There’s plenty more.<\/p>\n

…Within days of the election, his welcome statements … are already making way for the vicious anti-life agenda of Washington’s abortionist elite.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I have the sensation of being in a room where everyone else present is living in an alternate reality, where the inconvenient real world never intrudes. But this maniac – who somehow thinks it’s totally reasonable to say that Obama plans to abort all future foetuses, at the behest of some secret elite annihilation cadre – was giving “an English perspective” on Obama’s election for CBS..<\/p>\n

I have spent most of the past four weeks in the USA following and filming the historic US presidential election for my TV programme, The Politics Programme on Revelation TV. I was there on election day giving an English perspective on the election to the CBS Channel 7 News.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wtf, again.<\/p>\n

Revelation tv, lol. I bet the combined IQ of its all viewers wouldn’t reach triple figures. But CBS? Isn’t that supposed to be a real channel? Obviously not.<\/p>\n

Revelation TV.<\/a> Blimey it’s a Sky channel, apparently. (Another good reason for sticking with cable only.) They portray Obama as a threat to the unborn and to marriage.
\n(Doesn’t extending the boundaries of who can marry whom imply the exact opposite of a thretat to marriage. Outlawing marriage would be a “threat to marriage”. Maybe I’m just being too literal here. \ud83d\ude00 )<\/p>\n

This is good to read …..<\/p>\n

Will the Republican Party decide that conservative Christians are just too troublesome for the party and see the pro-life movement as a liability?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One can but hope.<\/p>\n
