I have had the good fortune to mee...Rainbow Demon,<br /><br />I have had the good fortune to meet some truly "progressive" Christians, but these groups that take advantage of misfortune in order to fulfill their evangelical agenda--truly sick. Reminds me of the food pantry I used to work at where the church group would require that these poor people who were coming in for food sit down and allow themselves to be preached at for 10 minutes or so, before receiving their allottment.<br /><br />Imagine, you are already in a humbling position, you just want to pick up the food to bring home to your family and the organization decides this is a good time to "convert" you because you might be weakened and receptive...<br /><br />On another note, I was watching this show called "Wife Swap" last night--did you happen to see it. In this episode, they switched the "wife" of a conservative Texas, republican, Christian, millionaire, interracial family with the "wife" (in this case the one who appears more "submissive" in the relationship) of a lesbian couple that also has a child.<br /><br />I was very impressed by the husband from the Christian couple and the kids were amazing--all of them very willing to learn about someone different, but the wife was the epitome of closed-minded hatefulness--painful to watch (I know people like her)... alternating between anger and pity.<br /><br />The hatred from this woman, especially in her conversation with the other wife at the end of the show was sickening...Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14256564770318269688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6323968.post-1108054399658803352005-02-10T11:53:00.000-05:002005-02-10T11:53:00.000-05:00It's just simply amazing how much harm these peopl...It's just simply amazing how much harm these people are actually doing in this world, and they think it's good...<br /><STRONG>'Missionary Mercenaries' 4 Jesus</STRONG>Peace,<br />=RD=Rainbow Demonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01161389187746802804noreply@blogger.com
