Only Christians Can Save Christianity
Dan Savage makes the point that liberal Christians who are tired of being lumped together with what he calls “right-wing fundamentalist batshit asshole douchebag Christians” should complain — not to the targets of evangelical hate campaigns like himself — but to the haters who run the hate groups in Christ’s name, like the American Family Association, National Organization for Marriage and the rest.
In Anti-Austerity Push, Moveon.org Hacks Fox News’ Ticker: ‘We Are Being Lied To – America Is Not Broke’
Moveon.org hijacked the news ticker at Fox News world headquarters and inserted this message:
“We are being lied to. Rightwingers are destroying the middle class and trying to kill our unions. The country is not broke. We are the richest country in the world. USA is twice as rich as China. Our economy is bigger than most of Europe combined. We are not broke. We are being lied to. We will rise up. We will fight back. We will spread the truth.”
This is part of Rebuild the Dream, a new anti-austerity initiative from Moveon.org, which will be launched on June 23 in New York City in an event hosted by Van Jones and featuring the Roots and artist/DJ Shepard Fairey.
John R. Butler’s Hymn for Our Times, ‘Hand of the Almighty’
“Hand Of The Almighty,” by John R. Butler. (WARNING: CONTAINS PROFANITY – If you’re easily offended, you may want to find something else to watch.) This is from “The Best of the Red Peters Comedy Music Hour, Vol. 1” This song is also known by the title “God Will Fuck You Up”
Lyrics:
Oh sinner do not stray
From the straight and narrow way
For the Lord is surely watching what you do
If you approach the Devil’s den
Turn round don’t enter in
Lest the hand of the Almighty fall on you
He’ll fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
Yes God will fuck you up
If you dare to disobey his stern command
He’ll fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
Don’t you know he’ll fuck you up
So you better do your praying while you can
Long ago a man named Lot
Had a wife he thought was hot
But she could not stop her black and sinful ways
You know it was her own damn fault
When God turned that bitch to salt
That’s the way he used to work back in those days
He fucked him up (he fucked him up)
He really fucked him up
When the people went and turned their backs on him
He can fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
No shit he’ll fuck you up
Just like he fucked the people up back then
I used to have a friend named Ray
Who walked that evil way
He cursed and drank and broke his neighbor’s fence
You know Ray was full aware
That some sheep were over there
And he knew them in the Biblical sense
God fucked him up (he fucked him up)
He went and fucked Ray up
Went and paid him back for all his wicked sins
He fucked him up (he fucked him up)
Fucked that boy completely up
Now he’s married to a Presbyterian
Hat tip – and Happy Birthday – to JS
