By Michael Dominic Tell me that these right wing christopaths are not terrorists. Don't they insist on arming in order to be able to overthrow the government, or secede? Don't they insist on the right to impose their religious beliefs as law? Hasn't there been dozens of assassinations of leaders and civil rights workers in the past half century- all the work of "lone nuts" who were also right wing "christians" Does anyone remember the Murrah building in Oklahoma blown up by right wing "christians"? What of the killings of abortion doctors and bombing of abortion clinics? From John Wilkes Boothe to Terry Nichols the right wing has been well represented in American Terrorism. ISIS still cant hold a candle to the torture and death inflicted upon fellow Americans by the right wing christian extremists calling themselves the Ku Klux Klan. I see right wing republican christopaths as the biggest threat this nation has EVER had...and yet these politicians, like corrupt Islamic warlords in some countries, turn a blind eye and assist quietly, just as their forbears did with the Ku Klux Klan...and still do. We continue to hear from a cabal of preachers and politicians- all conveniently Republicans, conservatives, and "Christians"- that the government is persecuting them. They also are the same people trying to impose extreme right wing christopath religious law on the rest of us who aren't right wing christopaths. Christian Sharia. I keep using that word- christopath. Pardon me for not defining terms earlier. I am a christian, an orthodox christian. I have nothing in common with Pat Robertson, Louie Gohmert, Ted Cruz or any of these other nuts. A christopath is someone who is using Christianity as a cover, a clever pretense to push right wing political aims. They are as christian as Benjamin Netanyahu... and oddly, aligned with him as well. One could call them Christian Taliban, but they aren't Christians but in name only. I resent them using the name of Christianity in this bogus attempt to further shore up a police state here while building empire overseas; and see them as sick, pathologically demented, suffering from the grandiose delusion of American Exceptionalism. Hence the term " christopath." These same lying thieving pirates have the blood of millions on their hands from the invasions and killings of people worldwide in a stupid "war on terror" that they themselves created. So how can they call themselves Christian? Would Jesus approve torture, invasions, murder, pillage, starving the poor at home, depriving children of education and food while enriching oil barons and billionaires? So lets tear off their masks and call them what they are: terrorists. Comments are closed.
