FULL TITLE: Psychology professor accuses GOD of being a sexual predator for impregnating the Virgin Mary 'without her consent'

A university professor has accused God of sexual misconduct for impregnating Mary, the mother of Jesus, without her 'consent'.

Eric Sprankle, an associate professor of clinical psychology and sexuality studies at Minnesota State University-Mankato, criticized the Biblical Christmas story, saying the Christian deity was 'predatory' .

'The virgin birth story is about an all-knowing, all-powerful deity impregnating a human teen,' Sprankle wrote on Twitter. 'There is no definition of consent that would include that scenario. Happy Holidays.'

Responding to Sprankle, someone else pointed out that Mary discusses God's plans with the angel Gabriel in the story of the Annunciation and tells him: 'I am the Lord's servant, may your word to me be fulfilled.'

Went through Sprankle's Tweets and read some of his published pieces/interviews ....
His bio: of course, he's one of the self-hating, bed fouling, Bolshevik usual suspects, a schümer with schiff for brain that'd sock it to us hard in the soros. Sample: unhinged

There is a blasphemy, A sin unto death, against the Holy Spirit that Jesus spoke about in Matthew 12 verses 31 to 32. There was a time in this country when there was a certain fear preventing most anyone from saying something so wicked.

Psychology professor accuses GOD of being a sexual predator for impregnating the Virgin Mary 'without her consent'

Since it was the Holy Spirit who impregnated Mary, this man has committed the unpardonable sin, when he accuses God of being a 'sexual predator'.

28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: 29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: 30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit. (Mark 3:28-30)

He's done. The Lake of Fire shall be his eternal abode.

In looking at Sprankle’s disgusting Twitter feed (full of lots of crass tweets and pictures), I am saddened and shocked that he is still employed...

Anyone living in MN should contact the school as YOUR TAX DOLLARS are paying this pervert’s salary!

These are the people teach Psychology? Obviously not comfortable with the supernatural wildness of a good God.

Surely you jest. :-)

I'm not sure why people pay attention to the rantings about God from a Satanist. Other than to publicly shame them, of course

These people are best left alone. Used to be, society would commit folks like this to make it safer for the public. And to protect them from themselves.

Nowadays, they're college professors, liberal activists and democRATS.

[[The article explains where this wretched man is coming from.

And going to.]]

IF he doesn’t get saved- he will be making his abode in eternity in a place with actual violent sexual predators- Sadly he will find out how wrong he was!

Luke 1:38 And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. Sounds like to me she gave consent.

Exactly what I was going to say. Also, Luke 1:31 uses the future tense: "you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son." This was advance consent, not acceptance of something that had already occurred. I'm startled at just how much hate Professor Eric Sprankle must hold in his heart to characterize such an uplifting spiritual event in so negative a manner.

blasphemy is a matter of ascribing works of God to works of the Devil, or Demons- blapshemy is the final rejection of the call of the Holy spirit to salvation

Since elizabeth was old, and a cousin of Mary, Mary could have been older than many think

Apologies to any psychologists here, this won't apply to you. But back in college I made an observation and in the 25ish years since then, it's held true. The nuttiest people gravitated to psychology as a major. I figured they must be looking at it as a pathway to fixing whatever angst they have. That's not to say all psychologists are nutty, just that nutty people disproportionally become psychologists.

Anyway, this article is yet another data point supporting my observation.

Why doesn’t this clown do something really edgy and accuse Mohammed of being a paedophile?

I read somewhere that the words used to describe Mary in the original text, is indicative of a rather young woman.
