The mood of the convention is set. All Christians, everywhere, are under attack. Perkins, dressed in a dark suit and white shirt, climbs the stairs onto the stage. He promises to halt “the cultural decline” and to end “misguided” judicial decisions. Before long, Frank Wright, the new president of NRB, takes the stage. Wright, who has white hair and a cold demeanor, lauds the recent transformation in Washington and says that 130 members of the House of Representatives are now “born-again.” He tells a story about a late-night private tour of the Capitol in which he and a group of other pastors stopped and prayed over Hillary Clinton’s Senate floor desk. The crowd roars its approval.

“Today, the calls for diversity and multiculturalism are nothing more than thinly veiled attacks on anyone willing, desirous, or compelled to proclaim Christian truths,” he says. “Today, calls for tolerance are often a subterfuge, because they will tolerate just about anything except Christian truth. Today, we live in a time when the message entrusted to you is more important than ever before to reach a world desperate to know Christ.

Pretty scary article about what the Christian Far Right is up to.
 
Ahh yes, the poor, oppressed Christians. It must be so hard being a part of a religion to which the vast majority of the country belongs. Boo-hoo!
 
I see a circular debate coming up:

MBE, AM23, Quack et al. (and myself): fuckin' Christians. Typical.

PAD and CTL: You guys are so preachy about tolerance, yet you just love to hate christians.

The Lefties: So, we're intolerant because we can't stand bigotry and intolerance?

The Righties: Yep.

Rinse, lather, repeat.

myke.
...I'd like to know what Hillary supports that Jesus would condemn. God knows Tom DeLay needs the prayers more than she.

EDIT b/c I apparently don't know the difference between tolerant and intolerant.
