Baneful Baptist Predatory Pernicious Pastors Destroying Democracy

This essay is dedicated in appreciation to Paul Pearson Southern Baptist pastors have been spiraling downward  into the abyss of fiction and fraud for generations, pushing the iniquitous sword attacking civil rights, women, people of color, and the customary whipping boy for ignorant people: the LGBTQIA+ community. From Billy Graham and G. Marion “Pat” Robertson …

Critical thinking, Dirty Wars, Prostitution in the Vatican and 3 bad popes

Francis cardinal George and pedophiles in the Roman Catholic Church’s clergy

Francis cardinal George of Chicago wages war against sanity, justice, and freedom in his support of pedophile priests, cover-ups, and comparing LGBT people to the KKK. As sinister and unlearned as George is, he is but a small sampling of how the Roman Catholic Church is stretching to ensnare the world and destroy democracy.

Roman Catholic Church attack on Human Rights and Benedict XVI’s cover-up

Corruption is everywhere in the Roman Catholic Church: from pedophile priests to castrating young males, raping young girls and older women, to open money laundering at the Vatican Bank. Benedict XVI has been knowledgeable about the crimes against humanity by his priests, bishops and cardinals, and has tried to cover each instance, as seen with letters in this essay and full documentation.

When religion triumphs over reason, faith, psychology, investigation, and research, learning dies

Religion has always opposed human freedom. Instead of liberty to expand the mind, religion has sought mind control from the days when the Christian church was formed in 325 CE, to the rise of islam and beyond.

Freud, Jung, Obama, Romney, Religion & the 2012 election

Freud argued to study that which is of this world, and work to improve the conditions of all people. Jung argued that ideas have substance and that religion is a reality and thus can be studied. The Republican Party and Mitt Romney use Jungian psychology in justifying CEOs telling employees how to vote. Obama and the Democrats want individual choice, secret ballot and progress for people. The Roman Catholic Church and Knights of Columbus spends more than 20% of its budget to defeat human and civil rights to move the USA closer to a theocracy.

Love and Marriage–and the Bible

Homosexuality has always been a natural and normal way of life. Celibacy and Chastity are unnatural sex practices. While evangelical Christians and Roman Catholics and other denounce homosexuality, their god and most of their history is peopled with homosexuals, as it is in Islam, Judaism and all other religions. Denying homosexuals equal rights is enchaining basic human and civil rights.

Christmas, Jesus, December 25, and making merry

Christmas is considered a time of families being together, sharing drink, food, dance, and various pleasures–but this has never been the rule for all nor the fortune for everyone, as religions have held it captive, deprived it of its temporal joys, and denied the reality of peace and harmony.
