jesus freaks go to war over gay hate statue
I love it when Jesus Freaks go after each other. It's the best when they go at it after someone has been excommunicated, gets pissed off and spills all their dirty little secrets to anyone who will listen.
That is when the gloves come off and no low blow is too low to toss.
The idea is similar to shooting yourself in the stomach in order to hit the guy that is standing behind you.
They end up making themselves look like dumb asses, banking that they can make you look worse.
In so many ways they are each other's worst enemies.
Do you know what happens in a psych ward when you take patients that all believe they are Jesus and put them in the same room?
They fucking flip out that is what they do.
It's the same principle here.
Jesus (the real one) was just a blue collar, working class Jew with a slightly different take on things, most notably, his stance that the old testament was bullshit.
Hence the reason the Jewish establishment couldn't stand his ass and had him killed.
Then look what happened. His brand of "its ok to work on Saturday" Judaism caught on with poor, disenfranchised Jews that didn't need any more guilt trips for having to work on Sunday to make ends meet and now if you fast forward 2,000 years, suddenly that homely Jew with a fresh perspective is now a handsome Aryan with a record number of midi-chlorians in his bloodstream who if the prophesy is true will bring balance to the force.
You never can tell what your future may hold can you?
The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Wyoming ruled a while back that any city that displays a Ten Commandments monument on public property must also allow monuments espousing the views of other religions or political groups on that same property.
Sounds fair enough right? If you are going to open the door to erecting monuments in honor of your silly fairytales then step aside asshole while I give you my take on things.
Well anti-gay preacher Rev. Fred Phelps has created a statue condemning Mathew Shepard , the gay kid that was killed in 1998 while he attended college in Laramie , Wyoming to hell.
That's right.
Phelps has created a 6-foot-tall granite monument that has a picture of Matthew Shepard engulfed in flames above the words " Matthew Shepard - Entered Hell October 12, 1998 , in Defiance of God's Warning: `Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind; it is abomination." Leviticus 18:22."
The city had one option.
They must move the Ten Commandments monument, preferably to the private property of the group that donated it to the city in the first place or put Phelps' monstrosity up.
Imagine that? Keeping your religious propaganda on your own property? What a novel idea.
" We don't want to move it, but we don't want Phelps` hate spread through the city ," said Herschel Nickerson , secretary for the Fraternal Order Of Eagles which donated it to the city in the 1960s.
Moving it would legally prevent Phelps from placing his "Sheppard is in hell" monument in the same park but don't expect that to deter Phelps .
He is a fundamentalist you should know better.
" Casper is the epicenter and fountain of gay experiences ," Phelps told the Rocky Mountain News from his Topeka home. " We know the way to the courthouse door, and we have not been accused ever of being broke ."
He has threatened to buy land in downtown Casper and erect the statue on the property.
The city unanimously voted to refuse to erect the statue this week but Phelps kindly informed them that they really can't do anything about it.
The town already has the Ten Commandments in the park. They must allow his and that is per the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.
So the next day the city agreed to move the Ten Commandments monument from where it has sat for the last 40 years to avoid this asshole putting up his own " Matthew Shepard burn in hell" monument.
Now the Jesus freaks in Casper are pissed because someone more Jesus freakish than even they are made them move their monument to storage for the time being.
Yeah they plan to bring the old ten commandments monument back out, just as soon as they can formulate a plan B.
Jesus freaks seem to have made it their mission in life as of late to run around erecting Biblical tributes all over the place so that when they die they can show God what a good little unquestioning automaton they were in hopes that it will take attention away from how much of a cantankerous, judgmental, hateful asshole they really were when they were alive.
Something tells me however it won't work.
I am surprised someone hasn't built a monument to killing doctors at abortion clinics by now to tell you the truth.
If they haven't already I am sure there are a few in post production.
The lesson Jesus freaks should take from all of this is that if you do you start plastering your religious shit all over the place, just know that can't just have it your way. Someone more fucked up than you is going to come along and demand the same rights you have to spread their shit around too.
That is, unless you want to pull some Taliban type shit and only put your way of looking at things on display, which personally, I wouldn't put pass you.
But until then, you made your bed, now make way for the rev. Phelps' of the world would like to get under the sheets too.
You deserve each other.
