Salazar blasts Radical Cleric Dobson -we need to pass the ammunition
Senator Ken Salazar blasted Fundamentalist Extremist "Dr." James Dobson today, saying he was "the Anti-Christ". Later, Salazar clarified his remarks, saying that Dobson and his extremist group "Focus on the Family" were "un-Christian".

Well, thank God for men like Ken Salazar who call tell it like it is. But I suspect he is going to receive flack and sustain an attack from the Religious Reich that will likely be a non-stop siege from now until his next election.

Salazar is in a much better position than he knows. Dobson's agenda IS utterly un-Christian. Katherine Yurica has written a detailed, Bible based critique of the Right's agenda.

Bloodguilty Churches
Why Bush’s Agenda Is Immoral and an Abomination to God
By Katherine Yurica

http://www.yuricareport.com/Religion/TheBloodGuiltyChurches.html

Excerpt

George W. Bush, his administration, the Republican controlled congress as well as the Republican Party itself, and most of the churches in America (including evangelical, Southern Baptist, Pentecostal and Roman Catholic), stand indicted—not by men—not by this writer—but by the very Holy Scriptures the religious-right and Mr. Bush profess to uphold.

Weighed against the Bible, the Bush actions are not only morally corrupt—they are unchristian and unbiblical to the core. In this essay, the Bush agenda is weighed on the scale of God’s standards and it is found wanting.

4. The endnotes are as long and as fascinating as the report
and provide that all important documentation. Most of Yurica's papers have as many pages of footnotes as they do of the text proper.
