It's no surprise that progressives hate Christianity. They don't want anyone answering to a higher moral authority than the federal bureaucracy. Anything that roots us in our cultural heritage is an impediment to Change. Worst of all, Christianity recognizes the preciousness of each individual soul, directly contradicting the liberal belief that we are significant only as interchangeable representatives of privileged grievance groups. With the Moonbat Messiah in charge, the gloves can come off:
A homosexual-rights activist whom President Obama appointed last month to a White House advisory council had — just three weeks before his appointment — posted a statement on the Web site of the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's most prominent homosexual-rights organization, accusing Pope Benedict XVI, leader of the Roman Catholic Church, of "hurting people in the name of Jesus."
The activist had previously posted statements on the HRC Web site accusing the Catholic Church of "insulting" Jesus and of "sending a message that violence and human rights abuses against LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual, transfreakazoid] people are acceptable."
In March, the HRC also posted a photograph of the pope and a statement attacking him on a new Web site the group created that month that it says is designed for "calling out those who maliciously use lies and misinformation to interfere with the LGBT community's path to equality [i.e., cultural dominance]."
President Obama appointed the HRC activist, Harry Knox, to his Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships on April 6.
Benedict XVI earned Knox's special ire by noticing that sexual morality and responsible behavior would be more effective than distributing free condoms in stopping the spread of AIDS. For this, Knox accused the Holy Father of lying and of being "morally reprehensible."
When asked if Comrade Obama agrees with his appointee Knox that the Pope is a "discredited leader," White House Spokeswoman Jen Psaki boldly affirmed:
You can say we declined to comment.
It won't be long before the Pope follows Sarah Palin and Carrie Prejean as the featured guest for the liberal establishment's Two-Minute Hate.
Great leaders do not surround themselves with jerks.
Comrade Obama surrounds himself with the scum of the earth. The White House is a nest of vipers.
Note here the hallmark of "progressives:" making stuff up on whim.
Asked if they agreed. They declined to comment. That’s a YES folks.
Thank you for all the great links. Leftism attracts the mentally ill like a magnet. It gives them an outlet for their frustrations and a way to channel their anger. The anger they can’t or won’t express to their parents or some other source, is acted out against “authority figures” and political and cultural institutions. Leftists need to examine themselves and their motivations. Most are suffering from low self insight. Obama is their perfect leader. He is a narcissist who seems to have no sense of guilt or insight into his own ideas and behavior.
The 19 were 7 1/2 years too early.
Well put.
Just as he did before the election. But...... nobody cared.
Cool! The Dear Leader and Harry Knox are against me. I must be on the right side.
Luke 21:17
17All men will hate you because of me.
