Back Down Memory Lane at Berkeley (Religious Left)

Weekly Standard ^ | 10-11-05 | Mark D. Tooley

Yeah, I love domination and crushing the poor. I'm so narrow in my views that "mother/father God" "embedded in all our art forms" cannot even make a dent in my consciousness.

[sageb1]

The One-Worlders and their New Age BS spirituality - the one where everyone gets to be his or her own god or goddess....

[jwalburg]

Al Hunt?

[martin_fierro]

"Religious Left" = "Jumbo Shrimp"

I tried to understand this article and the quotes, I really did. But now I've realized all these people just did too many drugs in the 60s. I think their brains are fried from LSD. At least they still have their libidos. (Sexual justice???)

God bless these poor souls.

[JRios1968]

Oh

My


God...


What in the world??? Well, that exactly is the problem, they're trying to define God by the leftist world's terms.

May God have mercy on all of them.

[sageb1]

Unfortunately, these poor souls are enjoying world-wide growth. For anyone who thinks Islam is a problem, just wait until Islam joins the New Age.

[jwalburg]

Actually, it might be fun to watch the libs try to fight Islam with their wimpy, lefty psychobabble techniques.

"Unfortunately, these poor souls are enjoying world-wide growth. For anyone who thinks Islam is a problem, just wait until Islam joins the New Age.
"

Yeah right. The Islamicists will kick these pansy asses butts!

[ncountylee]

Hillary disavowed Lerner when his quirky views attracted fire

That old Clinton loyality.

I'd watch that reality show!

Defrocked Catholic priest Matthew Fox, now an Episcopalian, blamed war and economic injustice on "those who want to worship a dominating punitive Father God which includes the put down of women, nature, [and] gays."

Yeah, The Taliban.....

'Liberation Theology' is the most purely evil doctrine ever imagined. It killed a lot of people.

[ladyinred]

Although professing to transcend political labels, Lerner seemed pretty un-transcendent: "In Europe they [the right] turned against the Jews," he declared. "In the U.S. they demeaned African Americans and Native Americans. Increasingly that role [targets of the right] is played today by gays and lesbians, feminists, liberals, and secular humanists."

I get it! Being part of the "religious left" means that one of the sacraments is "thou shalt tell heap big lies!" Cool!

[jwalburg]

the archangels, Adam and Eve, Hindu deities, Socrates and Aristotle, Moses and Jesus, Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius, Leonardo Da Vinci, White Buffalo Woman (from Sioux mythology), anthropologist Jane Goodall, environmentalist Rachel Carson, Gandhi, Anne Frank, Mother Theresa, and the Dalai Lama.

I love them throwing Anne Frank into that mix. If Ward Churchill should die, they could pray to him, too.

[JRios1968]

I love them throwing Anne Frank into that mix.

They had to, if only to cover their panty-waist asses.

MICHAEL LERNER was back on campus at Berkeley. But this time he is a portly Jewish rabbi...

Couldn't they say Msr Lerner is now an old Liberal fatty?

"I'm not fat, I'm big-boned!

[fizziwig]

Theirs is the religion of chaos....an amorphous blob of just about everything all mixed into one pantheistic soup of the damned....God help them.

[tertiary01]

It's called developemental delay, arrested developement or whatever. They just did not grow up and develope adult behaviors. You would be surprised at the ones who talk this psycho babble crap and did not do drugs. Something about Berkeley attracted these types in droves.

[Alouette]

I love them throwing Anne Frank into that mix.

Oops, that was a mistake. They meant to include Rachel Corrie.
