In addition to being a terrorist, apparently I’m also a sexual anarchist, whatever that is. This, according to Liberty Counsel’s Matt Barber, who is continuing his campaign of excising JMG comments whenever he thinks they suit his Christofascist means.

“Many years ago, the Lord ordained me to enter into a prophetic battle to destroy the demonic works of Satan in San Diego as a preparatory phase for a major move of God that would begin in this city.

Box Turtle Bulletin and Ex-Gay Watch earned headlines on Rachel Maddow’s show last night for their work exposing the American evangelical “quacktivists” behind Uganda’s “kill gays” bill. Well done, guys!

Iris Robinson, the “Anita Bryant of the UK” who was mocked by floats of look-a-like drag queens during last year’s Belfast Pride parade, not only was cheating on her husband at the same time she was on national radio called gays “abominations,” she was committing that adultery with a young man said to be under 21 at the time. That …

God’s annual New Year’s message to Pat Robertson is in. But this time Sky Santa had “nothing specific” to reveal. Oh, except that gays are perverted abominations. Robertson said God won’t bless an America that institutionalizes homosexual rights and abortion while prohibiting prayer and Bible reading in public schools. “How can we pray for his blessing when we have that …

Following up their overdue but welcome entry into Uganda’s “kill gays” bill outrage, the New York Times yesterday called out the involved American evangelicals in an editorial called Hate Begets Hate.

What …

The Christian Anti-Defamation Commission has published their “Top Ten Anti-Christian Attacks Of 2009.” As you would expect, those dirty queers made the list three times, include the top two “attacks.” 1.

Harlem-based Pastor James David Manning says that President Obama is “pure evil borne of the womb of 16 year-old white girl.” (Obama’s mother was actually 18 when she had him.) He also claims that the Marxists in the black Suburbans are coming to get him for saying so, blah blah blah. I doubt that Pastor Wacko is very well known …

The New York Times has finally noticed the now months-long debacle over Uganda’s “kill gays” bill, in an article about the three American evangelicals largely blamed for spawning the proposed legislation.

JMG reader John tips us to this very very seriously NSFW parody of the Feast Of The Circumcision, the annual celebration taking place this week about “the first time the blood of Christ was shed, and thus the beginning of the process of the redemption of man, and a demonstration that Christ was fully human, and of his obedience to …

Brit Hume says that Tiger Woods wouldn’t have been cheating if he’d just been a Christian. Like non-adulterous Christians such as Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani, Tom DeLay, Sen. John Ensign, Gov. Mark Sanford, Ted Haggard, etc, etc, etc, etc.

In November, Rhode Island Gov. Don Carcieri vetoed a bill that would allow same-sex couples to make burial decisions about each other. The bill arose out of the case of Mark Goldberg, who was denied access to his partner’s body for months. This Tuesday the state legislature, which overwhelmingly approved the bill, has a final chance to override Carcieri’s veto. …

In response to his “desperation” end-of-2009 plea, the mindless pensioners under Rick Warren’s spell dug deep into their piggy banks and forked over $2.4M in under 24 hours. The Rev.
