Has anyone else noticed?

Postby DeWayneTN » June 8th, 2009, 10:25 am

I've seen at least three instances of this lately, including a comment today from Megan Fox of Transformers 2 who joked that she would talk to Megatron to reason with him that ". and instead of the entire planet, can you just take out all of the white trash, hillbilly, anti-gay, super bible-beating people in Middle America?"

I got a press release the other day that said "not since the lions ate the Christians has a show been this funny."

I think there's a lot of anger out there right now against Christians and conservatives, but I think if the comments were directed toward other groups, people would be behind bars. Imagine if that press release had mentioned the holocaust instead.

or blacks, or Hispanics, or...

sometimes I tire of the challenges we Christians have and apparently have to endure, and on the flip side, I sometimes tire of Christians playing the victim (on useless/non-important issues), then on the side of that coin, I sometimes tire of "the wrong Christian group" being used as the stereotype for what it is to be "Christian" (WBC, KKK, Crusades, etc...)

yes, DeWayneTN - I completely agree. I run into that kind of stuff all day long. If I was a dispensationalist, I would say Maranatha! :)
Thanks, Brent "RamboPreacher" Hoefling

Good eye Dewayne. Like the recent mens magazine article of where conservative women should be hate raped and gives a "fun list". Absolutely disgusting and all advertisers should... pull out.

In a gist... it's because we can't "evolve as a culture" if we adhere to Biblical principle. In truth it's we are less likely to be suckered into a myriad of possible manipulations because of the foundation known as Christ.

He's still upsetting the status quo. :wink:
