Christian McCarthyism
Advertisements [?]
What is happening in this country? Fundamentalist so-called Christians are setting the agenda in our government, on our airwaves, schools and inside non-religious groups, instilling a kind of fear in those who are non-Christians. When will good people stand up and call for the truth; that we are responsible for the kind of lives, government, leaders, environment and future that is best for the general good and future of a democracy, not God. If you are a true believer, God doesn’t exist of fear, natural disasters, hate, war, killing, torture, revenge. Some so-called Christian leaders in this country are operating like Senator Joe McCarthy’s cabal, grabbing the national microphone threatening and smearing people, in this case, with lines from the Bible and twisted logic. They seem to have no problem, like Crusaders of old, killing those who would oppose them in their quest for empire and power. It’s time for good people to stand up and declare the imposters that these snake oil salesmen and profiteers really are. Where are the Edward R. Murrows in our national media, willing to stand and call for an end to the Christian Taliban and their message of fear and hate.

I truly believe that we can take this country back from the Christian McCarthyites, but only if good people stand up and speak out.
