8. I wish I could agree
but John Hagee has consistently proven his ability to get dumber and dumber. It's now beyond belief that a human being could be as stupid as him and still be able to function without direct intervention.

6. Maybe he should join the Westboro mob and picket
funerals. Or better yet, maybe he should visit Walter Reed and meet the troops with missing limbs. Disgusting.

10. "Stop voting for pagans and putting them in public office", he says
So, I wonder if that means he will vote for Mitt Romney (Mormon) should he be the nominee.

15. Not very likely
According to Hagee, Mormons ARE pagans. Hell, he probably thinks Catholics are pagans!

17. Then I hope that Hagee will lead other evangelicals to sit on their big white asses on election day
That would be the ideal plan.

12. John Hagee runs a fucking used car dealership.
Edited on Mon Jul-18-11 04:25 PM by A HERETIC I AM
Here it is;

The little room where the salesman convinces you to put up your hard earned cash for the load of bullshit he just handed you;

You know what that is? That's a theater. That is no damned church. And what happens inside is all show, nothing more.

The lot. It's empty because the used cars are all ethereal and inside the building;


That moron stood up in front of his congregation one time (and probably many times since) and shouted "EVOLUTION IS A LIE!!"

He is a huckster with few peers. He is a liar, a glutton, a hypocrite and a fucking moron. What is more tragic though, is that he has a LOT of parishioners and gets any attention paid to him outside of the north side of San Antonio.

13. Oh, good grief!
environmentalism is paganism? You'd think that those who believe that god gave the earth to humans would also believe that god expects humans to take good care of what they have been given.

14. Hagee is one sick fucking bastard.
Edited on Mon Jul-18-11 04:29 PM by 21st Century FDR
Some of his other "greatest hits" include:

1)People who don't have a job shouldn't be allowed to eat. Let them starve.

2)God sent Adolf Hitler to kill the Jews so they would return to Israel and fulfill the prophecy of Ezekiel 37.

3)Hagee wants to deliberately provoke a war with Iran, to enrage Russia and the entire Muslim world, in order to fulfill the prophecy of Ezekiel 38 & 39,

4)Hagee insists that the borders of Israel will include ALL of the territory God promised to Abraham in the Book of Genesis "From the Nile to the Euphrates". Never mind that God promised this land to ALL of Abraham's descendants (he didn't even have any descendants at the time). Or that even the most extreme factions in Israel aren't trying to claim all of this land. Hagee claims this will be the borders of Israel when Jesus Christ returns.

18. Hmm, but all those Roman legions seemed to do OK with pagan soldiers.
Likewise Alexander and his Macedonians and Greeks.

Yeah, I know that Xian soldiers have been among the most bloody, barbarous and victorious -- but still it would seem possible to win wars with pagan soldiers. For that matter, doesn't Hagee consider those to which we have been losing wars to be pagans? If so, them pagan soldiers could hardly be the problem.

my soldiers (or their personal lives for that matter), but I found that competence and courage had no relationship to any positive personal choices. Many of us thought Valhalla might be a perfect place to go after death. Fight all day then your wounds healed and you drank and screwed all night.

22. Pagans ? We have soldiers who practice pagan rituals ?
They are worshiping the Vestal Virgins, the Goddess of Victory, etc. Too many Saxons in the ranks?

Paganism was the religion of the Anglo Saxons and many other cultures famous for their ferocity in battle -- Vikings, Celts, Germanic tribes. Paganism eventually became a part of modern Christianity.

31. We do. Wicca has been a recognized religion in the military for
decades. They even get the solstices and equinoxes off as paid holidays. Some are buried at Arlington and other military cemeteries. Instead of a cross on the tombstone, they have an upright pentagram.

I served with some Wiccans and pagans in the Navy back in the late eighties. Their dogtags said "Religion: Pagan."

No shit.

26. Actually he blames it on Satan worshipers in the military. I watched the clip . . .
and now if you'll excuse me, I need to remember where I put the eye bleach.

33. Wrong, Mr. Hagee - we're not winning any wars because the MIC doesn't care about winning them.
The only reason we're fighting these "wars" is because it just means more precious profits for our MIC masters, there's no other motive for even being in Afghanistan and Iraq other than that.
