Rafael Cruz, Ted Cruz's father, is a Cuban American, born again Christian pastor. In the Huffington Post he stated that Black people are uninformed and deceived. As are Hispanics. That was ridiculous enough. But then he had to go and cite scripture in support of the death penalty ...
“You know, the Bible is so clear," he said. "Go to Genesis Chapter 9 and you will find the death penalty clearly stated in Genesis Chapter 9 ... God ordains the death penalty!”
Pastor .... check out 1 Peter 3:9:
"Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with a blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing."
And I may be wrong but, isn't there a commandment that states: THOU SHALT NOT KILL? That's pretty concrete. I mean, it's actually written in stone ... THOU. SHALT. NOT. KILL. Exodus 20. Pastor, look it up.
In another headline:
Sarah Palin Compares Federal Debt To Slavery
Uh Sarah .... Slavery is SLAVERY. Debt is debt. Slavery was when people OWNED people. Debt is when people owe MONEY. Take a history class please. And an economics course.
She also had this to say about the Pope:
"He's had some statements that to me sound kind of liberal, has taken me aback, has kind of surprised me," Palin said.
Uh ... peach blossom .... Pope Francis is the Vicar of Christ. He is a Pope who loves the poor, lives humbly and does not judge others. He doesn't live in the papal apartments. He isn't chauffeured everywhere in a limousine. Which is quite contrary to some of your evangelical Christian preachers who preach that prosperity gospel and are all multi-millionaires. I hate to break it to you sister, but if Jesus were on earth today he would be considered VERY liberal and you all would probably hunt him down and throw him in prison for being a commie pinko. So, as I stated in my previous post ... SHADDUP ... AND GO KILL A MOOSE OR SOMETHING.
RUSH LIMBURGER ... never fails to amaze me.
(also on the Huffington Post) ... Rush Limbaugh sent a message to Millennials on Wednesday telling them that they can keep on being wild and free just as long as they have Obamacare.
"If you like being promiscuous, you can keep on being promiscuous," he said. "If you like being a prostitute, then have at it!"
So just to clarify, Limbaugh insists that the message of Obamacare is this:
"If you like your risky, promiscuous lifestyle, you can keep it. That's what Obama is promising."
WHAAAAAAT??? How in the world is Obamacare linked to risky, promiscious sex? This guy is obsessed with risky, promiscuous sex. That's all he ever talks about. I think that Rush wishes he'd had some risky, promiscuous sex. Or he's pissed off that people out there are having risky, promiscuous sex and he's not. OR ... maybe he DOES have risky promiscuous sex and we just haven't heard about it yet. I'm betting on that last one.
SMOOCHES!
SMOOCHES!
People are insane. And I never cease to be amazed at the "religious" nuts who are nothing more than big-mouthed haters.
ReplyDeleteGenesis Chapter 9 ... God ordains the death penalty!” ? Really? I don't know but does the bible actually say this, ya know, in Genesis chapter 9, or is he lying or maybe two different people interpret this in two different ways.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, just askin'...

I read about Ted Cruz, and I'll paraphrase, 'Only in America can a Cuban-Canadian immigrant become a Southern Baptist immigrant-hating homophobe.'
ReplyDeleteAs for Mama Grizzly Bore™? She's a waste of oxygen.
As for Drug Limbaugh? I love how a prescription drug addict who shops doctors to keep him supplied with narcotics has ANY opinion on healthcare.

You know, I think you're right on that last thought!
ReplyDeleteDEBBIE! How are ya? Isn't the world so full of "noise?" That's why I enjoy reading and writing poetry. It slows you down, makes you think (when you try to write it AND read it!) Maybe these folks need a poetry class or two....
Thank you so much for coming to visit my post. Wishing you a holiday season filled with exclamation marks, commas and ellipses to trail your story of life into a new year of wonderful adventure. LOVE! Anita
