America's social reformers close their eyes to reality and blame
us Christians -- America's only hope, for all their frustrations. In their
anger and frustration, they do everything they can do to make us appear foolish
-- particularly if we acknowledge God's power in public or if we run for office
or get involved in influencing public policy.
There is a cultural war
going on, and the pagan left know they can't win in the arena of ideas. Their
ideas have long been discredited. Big government solutions have failed.
Permissive familes have disintegrated. So they have resorted to the low road of
name calling and divisiveness based on religion.
Using some of their
own politically correct "anti-discrimination" policies, some are beginning to
discriminate against Christians who they disagree with (as I've recently
experienced with one affiliate program I
was associated with). They refer to committed Christians in as derogatory terms
as possible. Since they frown on anyone making any absolute or exclusive
claims, they stigmatize anyone who does with labels such as:
Liberals are quick to say that speech that agrees with them is "free speech," while speech that disagrees is "hate speech." You don't have to be a rocket scientist to recognize who is really speaking hate. Here's what some of them are saying...

Bill Clinton has managed to pull this

Republican Party) no matter his private life...into which you and your ilk had
no business poking you noses into in the first place.
The Net would be a
wonderful tool if there weren't so many muckrakers and hate mongers using it to
push their own agenda and filling it with so much hatred. You Right Wing

governor of Arkansas. With the rabid scrutiny this family has been through, I
doubt Mother Teresa could pass muster. Of course it may not be so bad at that.
Your fanatical tirades may just be what the Democratic Party needs to clean

people don't appreciate smear campaigns and this has been the mother and father
of all smear campaigns. With all your using the Bible to validate your putrid

Even Europeans like Anton writes, "I did a search for Bill Clinton's

religious crap about what Clinton and his cronies are doing or not doing for
the environment.
The truth is that the USofA is the most wasteful country
in the world and in human history. Not only does it waste time and effort
propagating religious/'american values' crap in its efforts at world
domination, but it wastes the very planet that we ALL live on. The USofA has a
few percent of the world's population but consumes more than half of the
world's resources. OK, you may not see this as important, as you have deluded
yourselves into thinking that some arse-licking super-diety (who you call
GOD) will come down and rescue all you righteous bigots for ultimate

I'm hardly proud of a country where 1.5 million babies are murdered in their mothers womb every year ... where thousands of babies are murdered only seconds from delivery and inches from life ... where violence, hunger, drug abuse and lonliness is standard fare for our children ... where truth is no longer tolerated and lying, cheating, stealing, adultery, etc. are elevated to a virtue ... where God is mocked and the people choose to follow all sorts of deviant beliefs ... where sexuality is debased and a sexual revolution has twisted our sexual roles ... where the Whitehouse and Federal office buildings are occupied by criminals ... where the future financial security of the children and elderly are being pilfered to pay for present indulgences ... where education has been replaced with sensitivity training ... where the Constitution is being ignored and Constitutional rights are trampled on by a modernist, liberal, socialist movement ... and to top it all off - the people like it that way. Who's disgusting, repulsive, and offensive? Do you see the problem here? All the above has been redefined by liberals as being 'mainstream' and anyone who might dare question them is labeled an extremist. [ed.]

Why don't you leave judgement to GOD and quit spreading hatred everywhere. I don't expect us all to "just get along," but I think God can make the judgement by him/herself as to who goes to heaven and hell. I think you should just leave church and state separate and stop trying to mix the two. I know more religious christians that will go to hell for spreading hatred than I know normal every day people that will go to hell just because they are gay or decided to have an abortion. You don't see me telling you what religion to believe, so stay out of my business and I'll stay out of yours.

You sound like your live your life that everything is
going to hell and a handbasket in our country today. I'm sorry to hear that.
There are so many things going right about our country today, and that happens
not because any one man is president. Life in these United States is more
representative by our neighborhoods, our families, our friends, our local
community. President Clinton is our president, for one one reason and one
reason only. People voted for him. He won. Your guy lost. Why don't you get on
with your life and wait for 2000? I respect President Clinton because I respect
the office that he holds. I was never a fan of President Reagan's or President
Bush's political policies, but I always respected them as our nation's leader.
Jerry wrote, "Have you read the research showing that homophobia is linked to sexual arousal when viewing homosexual pornography? I guess you must get pretty turned on by this topic."
The so-called research Jerry refers to is an APA-approved study,
"Is Homophobia Associated With Homosexual Arousal?" (1996 Vol. 105, No. 3
Journal of Abnormal Psychology). In it, the study puports to show that people
who object to homosexuality are really aroused by it, unlike people who aren't
"homophobic." This nonsense is, of course, another example of the hatred that
homosexuals have for normal heterosexual people - especially those who point
out their sickness to them - and is an attempt to further label as mental
illness any moral objection to homosexuality.
The APA (American
Psychological Association) is the same group that released another study that
said child molestation with "willing" children might not be harmful.
(July 1998 Psychological Bulletin). The authors suggest in considering
non-coercive sex that: "A willing encounter with positive reactions would be
labeled simply adult-child sex, a value-neutral term."
The homosexual
rights movement wants more than "tolerance." Its final goal is for
homosexuality to be considered acceptable and normal. It clear these folks will
not stop even when they have been granted all the rights and benefits of
traditional married couples, they even want to legitimize pedophilia - THEY
WANT YOUR CHILDREN!
The Christian position is clear: Homosexuality is an
abomination, and we do not teach "tolerance" of a perverse criminal
behavior, any more than we would teach "tolerance" of child abuse, spousal
abuse, pedophilia, rape, murder, cocaine dealing or embezzlement. [ed.]

Jessica wrote, "I am a devout Christian who disagrees with your
hateful attitude on your web page. The Bible tells me not to judge others, that
is the realm of God only. To sin is a choice and if people decide to go against
God's will, it will be on their shoulders, not yours. Live your life, love your
neighbor. Leave the damnation decisions to God.
I would like to add that
as an American I will defend your right to say whatever you choose. I must say,
however, I was extremely disappointed with your response to Heather on your
"hate mail" page. It appears you called her an angry feminist just because you
wanted to insult her and couldn't think of anything better. As a woman I find
it offensive when people dismiss me as an angry feminist (or, in Rush's slang,
a feminazi) simply because I speak out. Heather calling you a bigot seemed to
be based on a reading of the ideas you presented on your pages. I can see where
she might get that idea. Your calling her an angry feminist had no basis, I
cannot see how you might justify that.
Most feminists (the quiet majority) are not the
man-hating militants with whom the media seem so entranced. They are women who
believe they have a position in this society equal to that of men. I am a
feminist, any woman who gets up in the morning and says, "I deserve to be
treated well and respected for who I am" is a feminist. A more tolerant
understanding of this might make your ideas more palpable to women and the men
who love and respect them."
God alone knows motives, but we can certainly judge words and actions against the standards of God's Word. And, in fact, we are required to do so. The Bible tells Christians to test all things, ourselves included (2 Cor. 13:5 and 1 Jn. 4:1). And Jesus Himself commanded us "to judge with righteous judgment" (John 7:24). Heather's words judge themselves, I don't need to. And the words and actions of NOW and other organizations espousing the feminist agenda speak for themselves as well. [ed.]

My main comment is this: your

of this page [ed.]) was perplexing. Is it not clear what is going on there?
Of course the Christians are the intolerant ones (in that situation). I don't
know that the people yelling on the other side are necessarily going to get
results from their non-constructive behavior, but do you not recognize the
intolerance that is so often spread when we refuse to stop and try to see from
where it is people are speaking?

For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. [1 Thess. 4:16-17]
It isn't "religion" they hate - or born again Christians. They
despise Jesus Christ. Their eyes are blinded by Satan's lies, most of them
don't realize the hatred they have for our Lord. Many of them deny it -- even
claiming church membership. But, the Bible tells us, "ye shall know them by
their fruits." They, along with much of American culture have embraced a
philosophy of pluralism, tolerance, and situation ethics. Despite their
self-proclaimed position of open-mindedness and tolerance, notice how
Christianity is always unacceptable -- even considered laughable.
But
in it all, you need to remember that these are very tolerant people who cherish
diversity - as long as your religious values (or lack of) are the same as
theirs.
Why are they so afraid of Jesus?
