Operation SAVE WALMART! Christianity "moving out of the closet"!!!!11
Edited on Thu Nov-02-06 02:24 AM by Bluebear
Christianity is moving out of the closet to become biography in the streets!


Contact: Rev. Flip Benham, 980-722-4920; Dr. Pat McEwen, 321-726-0444

MEDIA ADVISORY, Nov. 1 /Christian Newswire/ -- On Friday, November 24, 2006, the busiest shopping day of the year, Christians from across the nation will bring the Gospel of Christ to the very gates of the largest retailer in the World – WAL-MART! Christianity is moving out of the closet to become biography in the streets to come to the aide of America’s favorite store!

Why? Wal-Mart is being blackmailed by the abortion industry and the radical homosexual agenda. That’s right! After being lambasted for years by the anti-family, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, radical left, Wal-Mart is caving in. This former “family friendly store” is bowing to, and being extorted by, the demands of those who hate God, marriage, family, children, and America!

Here is what has happened:

* On August 21, 2006, the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce” (NGLCC) announced a “partnership” with Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.

* Wal-Mart is now a corporate member” of the NGLCC.

* Wal-Mart gave a one time $25,000 gift to join the NGLCC.

* NGLCC leads efforts to abolish the definition of marriage - union of one man and one woman.

* Wal-Mart will now prefer companies with lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender owners.

* A Wal-Mart vice-president will serve as an advisor to NGLCC.

* Wal-Mart will now sponsor (pay for) some programs of the NGLCC.

* Wal-Mart now dispenses the “Plan B” abortion pill.

* Wal-Mart now helps kill little baby boys and girls in the privacy of American homes.

Our schools, businesses, government, and churches are being extorted and being forced to honor things that are an abomination to God. It’s time for Christians to take a stand! It’s time for us to come out of the closet and allow our theology to become biography in the streets. The gates of hell cannot prevail!

Wal-Mart can be saved and so can America. It begins with God’s Church!

What: Operation Save Wal-Mart

Where: Wal-Mart locations TBA (check www.Savewalmart.com)

When: Friday, November 24, 2006 11:30 A.M.

Web: www.Savewalmart.com or www.Operationsaveamerica.org.

1. Does this mean we are supposed to like Wal-Mart now?
Big Box stores have no political affiliation. They care only about their shareholders. Now they see America moving to the left and they are trying to fool those with liberal values to shop and work there. I'm not buying it.

23. Don't bother trying.....
The bottom line is WalMart is a corporation and they are about making money. And the fundies well....They are about pushing their views on everyone else....

3. So by giving money to the NGLCC, Walmart automatically does those things?
Further proof that logic defies these idiots. I still hate Walmart, but still.............

8. what does "biography in the streets" mean?
please please please bring jesus h. christ on a trailer hitch to your Save WalMart dog & pony show!
for years the greed-head scumbucket WalMart turds have been defining their image and their merchandise through these nutbags--well, "what a friend you have in jesus," slimeballs! suck it up!
this is rich--oh, the irony--could the American Taliban ultimately "do in" WalMart? Hell hath no fury like a religious nutbag scorned!

13. A lesser-known song by the Doors
Biography in the streets, it's up to my ankles!
Geography in the streets, it's up to my knees...
Typography in the aisles of Walmart, Missouri...
Hagiography following me...

Alternately, a Situationalist handbook. Perhaps this pastor is a reformed French deconstructionist radical who understands that creating biography in the streets is the only way to free Wal-Mart shoppers from the Spectacle created by a sale in Aisle 9. If so, I nominate Gabriel Garcia Marquez to "to the honors".

10. Well, I'm fairly religious person, so two things....
* I personally don't believe in abortion, but I'm sure Wal-Mart sells a lot of things that are unhealthy, bad for the environment, or whatever. Where was this pastor then? And this pastor supports the killing of babies every day he allows Bush to remain in office.

Other than that, I support his new-found willingness to witness against Wal-Mart and await the day when he realizes that all multinational corporations are founded on violence and greed and are hence intrinsically anti-religious, and that he is being played for a dupe by the GOP.

* Everyone knows that the SMILEY FACE is the MARK OF THE BEAST so I naturally trust my instincts when it comes to Wal-Mart and its satanic rituals -er- psychologically disturbing animated smiley face ads. Happy happy happy! As Randall Flagg would say, Got pork?

Cheap, Chinese-made Indulgences.

25. I guess Wal-Mart now figures that they can get a better profit margin
from the stuff purchased by gay people vs. the cheap tacky garbage the fundies like to blow their wads on!
