Christians Open Minded?

A little old.. I forgot to push the "publish" button :) Non the less, some always fun random jabs the extreme right.


Intresting:

National Post: "'If you constantly marginalize us, that's when we could galvanized into one voting bloc,' he said. 'But really we're all over the map. We're pretty open-minded people.'"

Point 1. National Post: "One of the speakers who will address attendees today is Chris Kempling, a B.C. teacher who was suspended from his job as a guidance counsellor after writing a series of letters to his local paper that criticized same-sex relationships.

Point 2. National Post: "Mr. Emmanuel said the evangelical community is not necessarily going to fall in line behind Mr. Harper's Conservatives.

'I want to be careful not to be too critical, but I think Stephen Harper could do a better job defending our community,' he said. 'To be honest, I was shocked at his inability to fight for his beliefs and to keep the [sponsorship scandal] in the forefront of the debate.'"

Point 3. National Post: "The conference will also hear from Stephen Bennett, a U.S. radio personality, musician and public speaker who has flown to Canada to discuss his personal rejection of homosexuality. A self-professed 'former homosexual,' Mr. Bennett is now married to a woman and has dedicated himself to reaching out to 'homosexuals who want to escape the lifestyle.'"

Point 4. National Post: "Christians interested in social outreach and other 'compassionate endeavours' might have a natural proclivity toward Liberal or NDP candidates, he said. But he said it is the public disavowals of religion that push the evangelical constituency toward the Conservatives."


Finally. National Post: "But Mr. Emmanuel said he reached his breaking point during the 2004 federal election, when the Liberal government threatened the electorate with the Conservative party's "hidden agenda," which he believes was a thinly veiled attack on Christian beliefs."


Shutup. Damn crazy Christians. Here's a hint. Nobody wants to deal with uber right wings crazy christian beliefs. We as Canadians have larger, more pressing issues then the right-wing beliefs. It was the right wing that made Gay rights an issue in the last election. Anybody rember what happened? An Enourmous amout of Canadians said to their politicians, not "yes/no we support the issue".. It was more like "Shut up!, Why the hell are we talking about this? Can't you guys do something useful like end the hockey strike?"

In summary, SHUT UP.
