But he's a True Christian. What's the diference?

The difference between pseudo-Christian RRR Cult losers
and actual Christians is night-and-day, respectively.

Fortunately, society is awakening to this. And one day soon,
that realization will reach critical mass. And just as society did
to the EQUALLY-vapid, hateful, and bigoted segregationists, it
then will REJECT the RRR and its loathsome, anti-human-rights
agendas.

So what's the difference?

The DEFINING Flaw of the RRR Cultists

They are SO vocal, SO absurd, and SO high-profile, they get FAR
more
press and attention than they deserve. Possibly it's because most of
them claim to be Christians. And America has 150 million or so of
those. Thus, the news media and our politicians may still have the
mistaken impression that they are REPRESENTATIVE of Christians. That
perhaps maybe even MOST Christians are like the squeaky-wheel types
who walk around carrying signs with photos of aborted fetuses on
them. Or who protest loudly that "Those &%$# faggots want 'SPECIAL'
rights!" Or worse, beat them to death, or shoot the abortion
doctors.

They're giving Christians, and Christianity in general, a bad
name.
Ironically, and unfortunately, fully 98% of Christians are therefore
getting a VERY bad rap.

That's because 98% of all U.S. Christians either ignore the
above-
described cultists of the Religious Radical Right... or want NOTHING
whatsoever to do with them. Most Christians are quiet, tolerant
people who go about their daily jobs and bother no one.

So what IS it about the RRR Cultists that set them apart?

We could say that it's the disinformation they've soaked up like
sponges from their False Teachers who daily spew the phony and
unbiblical "we-must-impose-change-upon-the-world" dogma to all two
million or so of them over Christian radio stations. Teachers like
James Dobson, D. James Kennedy, Gary Bauer, Beverly La Haye, Jerry
Falwell, and Pat Robertson, who have mostly abandoned the Great
Commission (spreading the gospel), in favor of pouring more energy
into their hateful vendetta against many of our individual freedoms
and rights. But... not ALL of them listen to Christian radio.

No. There is ONE flaw that is common to EVERY cultist of the
RRR.
Without it, one cannot BE an RRR Cultist.

Busybodyism.

Consider the fact that whatever consenting adults may choose
to do in their own, personal lives, as long as they don't break the
law or overtly do harm to others and/or their property, that is their
OWN business, and no one else's.

So listen up, RRR Cultists (and in the case of abortion,
Anti-Choicers,
who so often are the same people):

(1) If a women CHOOSES -- from among the three available
and legal choices -- to obtain an abortion... that is
NONE of YOUR business.

(2) Homosexuals have sex with people of the same gender
and you don't? So what? No big deal. Why should
you care? No one's dragging you into their bedrooms
to watch, any more than you would do that to them.
Again: NONE of your business.

(3) Homosexuals seek EQUAL rights in the workplace.
NOT "special" ones. I have YET to EVER hear of
a gay person asking for "special" rights, or even for
rights that anyone could CONSIDER "special." That
is a lie, constantly promoted by the RRR's leaders.
They have been, and are, discriminated against
in the workplace. Often, the fact that they are known
to be gay -- EVEN THOUGH they are just like the
heterosexuals, except in bed -- is enough to keep
them from being hired, or enough to get them
fired. They want such discriminatory practices to
be illegal, and there is nothing wrong with that.
They simply want to be on an EQUAL playing field.

(4) Unmarried HETEROSEXUAL couples often are
unable to rent the apartments they want... because
they're unmarried! Can you imagine what would
happen to the landlord if he/she were to refuse to
rent to ANYONE just because the would-be renters
were BLACK? Good luck! They'd better have a
very good lawyer. And the practice is LUDICROUS,
because their renting to unmarried couples does
NO one any harm. And... guess what? Whether
or not a couple is married is NO one else's
business.

(5) Many (not all) homosexuals want the right to marry
their partners, and thus share the SAME benefits
(insurance, etc.) that heterosexuals who love each
other have. Well -- why not? This would do no
harm to anyone. but it would make our society
much more FAIR.

(6) The two biggest targets of the RRR Cultists are
abortion rights and homosexual rights. But gay
rights have three major aspects, an another of
those is the same as described in (4), above. There
is no way that being assured that discrimination is
NOT imposed of them could be, by ANY stretch
of the imagination, regarded a "special" right.
It is a CIVIL right, plain and simple.

Is there ANY biblical basis that the deceived Christians of the
RRR
Cult can draw upon for to support their bigotry and busybodyism?
No. Neither Jesus, nor God, anywhere in the Bible, appointed Their
believers to be Their Enforcers, or Their Gestapo vs. society.

Does God disagree with any of the above-listed practices?
Probably
not, as regards abortion. Nowhere does the Bible defend developing
human entities. It defends humanity only after a person has been
born. God is AWARE of fetuses (as some verses indicate), just as He
is aware of sperm and ova, and probably the position of every atom in
the uni- verse. But he does not DEFEND them. In fact, defense
sometimes can be lacking, even for already-born, essentially innocent
adults. To see this most clearly, use the NIV Bible, and see how
slaves are regarded in Exodus 21:20-21.

As for the other points... there is significant evidence that He
does.
However, it is the right of every individual to sort these issues out
with Him, if they so desire. Or NOT to, if they don't. The issues
are personal, all the way, and the business of NO other people.

DOES God condone enforcement by people of His laws and pronounce-
ments? Yes... but NOT the way the RRR Cult does it. There is
clear-cut instruction in the New Testament for disciplinary action
that can be taken against those who violate those. BUT... and this
is a HUGE "but"... those instructions apply ONLY to the practice of
CHURCH discipline by Christians, vis-a-vis disobedient FELLOW
Christians. NOT vis-a-vis society in general. In fact, there is even
a verse that PROHIBITS their doing that.

BOTTOM LINE: The DEFINING characteristic of RRR Cultists
is busybodyism. No sensible person would
be an advocate of discrimination. Nor does
even the Bible advocate it.
