Bigotry in Baton Rouge: Rick "Frothy Mix" Santorum & Pastor Dennis "GET OUT!" Terry

"I don't care what the liberals say, I don't care what the naysayers say, this nation was founded as a Christian nation...There is only one God and his name is Jesus. I'm tired of people telling me that I can't say those words.. Listen to me, If you don't love America, If you don't like the way we do things I have one thing to say - GET OUT. We don't worship Buddha, we don't worship Mohammad, we don't worship Allah, we worship God, we worship God's son Jesus Christ." ~ Pastor Dennis Terry, Greenwell Springs Baptist Church, Baton Rouge LA

Seriously? Wow... Where to begin? How full of hate and bigotry does someone have to be to say things this outrageous? Is this an example of being "Christ-like"? Is this what accepting Jesus into your heart does to a person? Is this "doing the work of the Lord"?


Here's my take on him and it's short and sweet. The loving Pastor Terry is Christian Taliban, plain and simple. I'm thrilled that he's loudly exercising his 1st Amendment right to free speech, otherwise we might never have learned what a grade A raging asshole he truly is. He represents the terminal sickness that has infected the GOP for a couple of decades. The Ď‹ber-conservative religious fundamentalists got their hooks into the GOP when Reagan brought them into the fold to secure his bid for White House, and they're not letting go come hell or high water. The don't realize that their brand of medicine is killing the patient. But fuck 'em, who cares. Karma's a bitch, right?

The best part of Baton Rouge Hatefest 2012 is that Pastor Bigot's speech was an introduction for Rick "Frothy Mix" Santorum! I think Santorum later said that he didn't clap for the good pastor, like that makes any difference.

I'd love to hear from Christians on what they think of this whackjob. Post your comments below...
