christianophobia
August 30, 2008 by Betmo
recently, the vatican warned of growing ‘christianophobia’ around the world and declared that it needed to fought with the same zealotry as anti-semitism, etc. normally, i would agree. i am all about religious freedom as long as you don’t infringe on mine. unfortunately, christians don’t seem able to leave well enough alone. no, they feel compelled to force their faith on others with evangelizing and proselytizing and converting people- especially in third world countries. their aid comes with strings attached and let’s face it, if i am starving, i will most likely sing hallelujah! until i have a full belly. you can force my behavior but you can’t steal my mind.
anyhoo- i thought about why folks might want to revolt against christianity- and i couldn’t come up with a single thing. nope. i came up with several- i mean besides the above mentioned issues combined with pedophilia and misuse of funds- and i am going to list them here. you can make your own conclusions about the ‘christian agenda’ and really ask yourself if these folks deserve to be left alone:
teacher on the front line as faith and science collide
christian right’s got a new stealth tactic to smuggle creationism into classes
theocratic sect prays for real armageddon- not to mention rain for dnc convention
undercover at hagee’s united for israel convention
sarah palin and feminists for life
bushco white house: birth control = abortion
judge rules doctors must treat gays in spite of religious beliefs

Also, those Christian pharmacists undercutting their own profession by refusing to fill legally prescribed prescriptions. This follows, as you wrote, Christian doctors’ refusal to provide medical relief for homosexuals, again, undercutting their profession.
Alexs last blog post..A "gestalt shift"
Good afternoon Alex,
I agree with Betmo’s analysis of the Christian Right and their dogged determination to take away our rights under the guise of being pro-life, anti-science or any of the other bullshit reasons they use to usurp my right to birth control, access to abortion or gay individuals rights to medical attention.
The more we talk about it, the better off we are..we need to expose these jackasses for what they are; narrow-minded individuals that refuse to allow other human beings the right to choice.
