Hippies were rude, dirty, Satan worshipers, according to a paragraph that apparently appears in a Louisiana state-funded schools history book.
The book, entitled America: Land I love is an eighth-grade history textbook that Mother Jones reports is used in at least one Louisiana voucher school. The textbook is published through Pensacola, Fla.-based A Beka Book.
According to an image obtained at AmericaBlog.com, the passage on hippies paints a stark, unflattering image: They went to Canada or European countries to escape being drafted into military services. Many young people turned to drugs and immoral lifestyles; these youth became known as hippies. They went without bathing, wore dirty, ragged, unconventional clothing, and deliberately broke all codes of politeness or manners. Rock music played an important part in the hippie movement and had great influence over the hippies. Many of the rock musicians they followed belonged to Eastern religious cults or practiced Satan worship.

I never got into the Stones, so I’m not familiar with their discography and album covers.
I have to say, Keith Richards looks almost lifelike in that picture.
I love how in the Oscar Nominated Weather Underground "documentary", they complain that "the Man" and "the Media" tried to associate the Manson Family's activities with the subversive revolution in this country yet it was Bernadine Doran herself who boasted that it was hip what The Family did stabbing those people in their own home and then feasting upon their food. NONE of that was referenced in the alleged documentary.
Wonder what the books of the future will say about the Tea Party Patriots. "Racists", "Homophobes", "Radicals", "Selfish", "Militant", "anti-government terrorists"...
San Fransicko spawned the Manson Family (before they relocated), Jim Jones’ Socialist Peoples’ Temple, and Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan. All in roughly the same generation. Plus a large number of other “counter culture” seekers.
Scientology opened their San Francisco “church” in 1968.
Saul Alinsky dedicated his Rules for Radicals to Satan.
Go ahead and laugh if you want but plenty of drug addled robots killed in the name of Satan and dragged others down with them.
Dennis Hopper endorsed Barack Hussein Obama.

One of Hollywood’s few Republicans has switched his vote. Dennis Hopper, 72, told reporters in France that he’s praying for an Obama victory, despite decades as a Bush supporter.
“I voted for Bush, father and son, but this time I’ll vote for Obama,” he told journalists at the opening of a show on his life and work.
“I was the first person in my family to have been Republican,” he added. “For most of my life I wasn’t on the left.”
“I pray God, Barack Obama is elected,” he said, calling the current administration’s many “lies.”

We were a little surprised to find out a while ago that actor Dennis Hopper is a longtime Republican sure, he appeared in the right-wing satire An American Carol, but so, too, did he make Meet the Deedles. Today, though, during a hushed, absorbing two-and-a-half minute monologue on The View, Hopper detailed the Jefferson-led conversion that led him to become a Reagan Republican, as well as a deeply personal story that eventually led to his unlikely presidential vote for Barack Obama. If this clip somehow ends up getting taped over the “Crash series” part of Hopper’s reel, we can’t say we’ll be surprised.
Go Amish, you can freely worship God, you can refuse to submit to Obamacare or permanent records.
I think that probably speaks more to how much McCain sucked than anything.
Winners write history.
hmm it says your account was banned. Is that recent? Oh well in any event the republicans didn’t do a damn thing to the hippies. I was there.
Satan does not care who is worshiped as long as it is not the one True God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is hyperbolic, but then again so is the reaction. That is a terribly misleading headline.
Let’s see...rejection of God, rejection of religion, taking drugs, promiscuity, abortion, drunkeness, violence.
Sounds about right to me.
“Satan does not care who is worshiped as long as it is not the one True God, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Right on!
