A just publicized new directive from the Air Force bans commanders from proselytizing to troops. The wingnuts are totally going to lose their shit.

CNN’s Christiane Amanpour examines the political legacy of Jerry Falwell, whose message continues to shape elections more than five years after his death.

“The liberal media have repeatedly and deliberately turned a blind eye to the violent, hateful culture of liberalism, particularly their vicious attacks against those who advocate traditional Christian values and conservative principles. We saw it during their deceptive, romanticized coverage of Occupy Wall Street. We saw it again during their sneering, anti-Christian coverage of the Chick-fil-A controversy. “And now we’re …

The Christian Post laments a new study which shows that only 39% of evangelicals have tried to convert a sinner in the last six months. A majority of churchgoers in the U.S. believe that it’s essential to share their faith with non-believers, but a large number of those are not doing so, according to a recent study of American Protestants …

The Liberty Counsel is sending the “Patriot’s Handbook of Religious Freedom in Public Schools” to every public school in the nation so that students understand that they have the right to inflict Christianity on classmates whether they like it or not. Presumably, the Patriot’s Handbook will include a lesson on kidnapping. The vast majority of these Handbooks have already been …

The skit at the beginning? I can’t even.

Christian network CBN, home of Pat Robertson, hosted a spokesman from the Media Research Council who warned Christians that liberals have a hit list to bring down anti-gay corporations.

Last week Missouri’s voters approved a “Right To Pray” referendum that includes, among many others things, the “protection” of public school students’ God-given right to refuse to be taught evolution. Amendment 2 “is a lawyer’s dream” because of its vagueness, says Joshua Rosenau, programs and policy director of the National Center for Science Education in Oakland, California, which tracks efforts …

“At the Democratic Convention they will be spitting in the face of every Bible believing Christian in America. They will be saying, ‘we don’t care what you think, what you believe, or what the Bible or the God of the Bible says. We know better than God’. The Democrat Party has turned its back on Christians. It is time to …

But if everybody prays rilly rilly hard for exactly forty days before the election, then maybe God will elect Mitt Romney. Or something.

“The homosexual lobby wants to outlaw Christianity. This is the real meaning behind the uproar over Chick-fil-A. The chicken sandwich franchise has become a lightning rod for the culture war. Liberals despise it; conservatives back it. Supporters of gay marriage want to prevent the Atlanta-based chain from expanding, demanding new restaurant permits be denied. [snip] The left’s goal is to …

As been exhaustively documented on this blog, for years US-based evangelical groups have been lobbying governments across Africa to create or increase penalties for merely existing as a homosexual person. These shining examples of Christian Love™ have resulted in the persecution, imprisonment, rape, and even murder of LGBT people across the continent. Today Britain’s Times newspaper added more names to …

“Parents and grandparents who don’t want their children and grandchildren sexually indoctrinated with unnatural and unhealthy ‘lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender’ role models must decide now to exit the immoral, imploding, dysfunctional government school system and place their children in church schools or home schools. This is no time to be indecisive, since you only have one chance with your …

Even if Jesus finally gets you to stop stealing, that doesn’t mean you’re not still tempted to shoplift in Wal-Mart. But however fucked up way they get there, the increasing Christianist move away from brainwashing and torture is certainly welcome. Now they just want you to endure a lifetime of untouched, unloved celibacy.

“It is well-known that strict Muslims advocate killing and desecration, so we, as educated Christians, must be aware of this and, as Jude cautions, ‘save with fear, pulling them out of the fire.’ Nurture this aggressive faith by passionately seeking after God through prayer and action. And notice the order: first and foremost, pray. Secondly, take action by educating yourself …
