??? Wow, now that's crossing the line. What if I posted that electing Obama will be like Rhodesia to Zimbabwe Part II? That would be equivalent to what you just did.
That is incredibly offensive. Years and years of blatant race baiting, then faux high-horse attempts to call black Christians racist, and now this. NEW LOW, AND SINKING.
Um, nice little edit there, B-Bob. The context of that over the top line was in response to No Worries EDITING my post to say that 'racism is tolerable'. It's called a counter-punch.
anytime he breaks out the oj card he's reeling. its really sad because he can usually hide his racism better than that but when he breaks out oj he's usually struggling. I really prefer when he's doing a little better, its more of a challenge.
It's not a Christian smear. It's the truth about some lunatics who believed you could preach to kids the same way you preach to stupid adults. There has long been a strain of extremism throughout rural East Texas and it was certainly stronger when I was a kid during the 1960's (I'm betting this was before you were born). And this was in a town of less than 200... I wasn't there for day care, I was there because the social mores of the community demanded it. I could roam hill and dale from morning until dark and my parents wouldn't worry about anything unless I failed to show up for supper. Still, I do appreciate your interest in my early years. Please tell me more about my life... it's especially enlightening coming from a guy who has no clue about the world he currently inhabits.
Nothing wrong with being a Muslim except when you are an extreme Islamic radical muslim. Wright has associated and honored people like Farrakhan, visited Khaddafi in Libya, and has made many anti-semitic remarks. So Wright's radical muslim past explains how he became a radical Christian today.
Hilarious. You should really spend a bit more time and read the whole paragraph when you consult Wiki...
Really LOL Why should Reverend Wright’s past as Muslim concern us? First, Reverend Wright’s hate sermons are virtually identical as those given by his good friend, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who followed in the footsteps of Malcolm X. For example, this description by Ben Wallace Wells, published in Rolling Stone—a magazine that favors Obama, most likely in serving the interests of their demographic–in February, prior to the release of the Wright videos, makes clear the connection: Wright takes the pulpit here one Sunday and solemnly, sonorously declares that he will recite ten essential facts about the United States. “Fact number one: We’ve got more black men in prison than there are in college,” he intones. “Fact number two: Racism is how this country was founded and how this country is still run!” There is thumping applause; Wright has a cadence and power that make Obama sound like John Kerry. Now the reverend begins to preach. “We are deeply involved in the importing of drugs, the exporting of guns and the training of professional KILLERS. . . . We believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God. . . . We conducted radiation experiments on our own people. . . . We care nothing about human life if the ends justify the means!” The crowd whoops and amens as Wright builds to his climax: “And. And. And! GAWD! Has GOT! To be SICK! OF THIS ****!…This is as openly radical a background as any significant American political figure has ever emerged from, as much Malcolm X as Martin Luther King Jr. The racist paranoia of AIDS being developed by white America to kill blacks and other inexcusable statements are from the same framework of the NOI and Farrakhan. In fact: In 1984, Wright was one of the inner circle that traveled with Farrakhan to visit Libyan strongman Col. Muammar Khadafy. The ostentatious Farrakhan junket came at a time when Khadafy had been identified as the world’s chief financier of international terrorism, including the Black September group behind the Munich Olympics massacre. Secondly, while Obama’s plagiarism of a speech delivered by Nation of Islam leader Malcolm X to mostly black audiences has been correctly noted as a racial dog-whistle, it has not been examined in the larger context of the black separatist movement from which it originates. Third, why did Wright’s church put the racist and anti-Semitic Farrakhan on the cover of its magazine Trumpet? Why did Trinity Church post: a manifesto by Hamas that defended terrorism as legitimate resistance, refused to recognize the right of Israel to exist and compared the terror group’s official charter – which calls for the murder of Jews – to America’s Declaration of Independence[?] The three points above show a consistent pattern of Wright parroting not only the language and but also the attitude of the Nation of Islam. Wright has synthesized Christianity and an odious brand of Islam. When two religions become one, social scientists refer to this as a syncretic religion. For example, the Mayans developed Mexican Catholicism as a subversive way to maintain their culture in the face of Spanish conquest. The Reverend Wright may no longer be a Muslim, but he clearly embraces Hamas, Minister Farrakhan and others because they dovetail with his established world view, as with other syncretic religions. Reverend Wright’s hate speeches are a glimpse of someone who has blended Nation of Islam and Black Nationalist Liberation Theology into a subversive Christianity, one that would hardly be recognized by most black Christians, and much less so mainstream American Christians, regardless of color. Indeed, one suspects that Jesus himself would have a difficult time recognizing the message delivered by Jeremiah Wright. Obama’s 20-year mentorship with Wright not only demonstrates an incredible lack of judgment, but also highlights his views on race. Comments about his Grandmother being a typical white person may simply sound immature, unappreciative, and dismissive of the woman who helped raise him, but in the tradition of Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and Jeremiah Wright, calling someone a typical white person is an insult indicating a world view. http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/04/10/jeremiah-wright-was-a-muslim-why-that-matters/
I think this makes Wright a Rogue Christian, a Muslim in Christian clothing. Since Wright personally converted Obama to Christianity, that make Obama a Rogue Christian as well. You know as soon as Obama gets elected that he is going to drop all of this Christian nonsense and show himself to be the Radical Muslim, that we all know deep down he is.
