"Pastor" John Hagee: Christofascist Warmonger (what a disgusting man)
Unfortunately, millions are watching John Hagee preach his lovely brand of Christofascist hate.


"The United Nations is the united nothing!" to applause from the warmongering "Christian" sheeple in the pews.

John said there are over a billion Islamics, but...... "there are over 200 million Islamofascists".

He is going on a terror of his own, not even claiming that he's preaching peace, but instead he's preaching that the US military "do everything they can" to "CONQUER" the enemy.

I am ashamed, as a Christian, to have this man associated with my Faith... he is nothing that a Christian should be, he isn't humble, he's gluttonous, and he's vitriolic and spiteful.

Oh, how did he finish off before I changed the channel? "if you read the papers or watch FOX News", and to mass applause, "for 8 years Bill Clinton didn't do a bit of good", "when he hit a few sand dunes" bombing the empty terror camp.

Yet, so many sit there like sheeple, instead of standing up for what's right and walking out, as I've done many times in churches or functions that I found fraudulent, and the lovers of war continue to foam at the mouth while the hatred and warmongering is preached! He should be preaching about how Christ can save your soul, not preaching politics.

John Hagee says, as one of the highest paid TV evangelists at a million or more a year, "I deserve every dime I'm getting." He has been under federal investigation for his finances, but of course the sheeple continue to pump millions into his coffers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Hagee (maybe someone that could add a controversy section could put his bullshit "preaching" from today in there).

JOHN HAGEE, YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM, NOT THE SOLUTION.

I gave them a rebuke at: support@jhm.org

2. He's a robber
All the money he collects in the name of the church goes into his pocket

6. Gosh, as I research him
I'm starting to see that. What a complete SLIMEBALL CROOK! Why are these people enraptured with him? Is it because they want to go to church and he's closest, and people watching are in love with his animosity? Just godless behavior. Very sad. I pray his "ministry" is fully exposed to his followers.

3. I hear you.
I'm not a Christian, but I am a believer. This man is a danger to America, and is a fascist in the finest sense of the word.

7. bless you!
I was hoping someone would hear my cry. I flipped to him on my way to football, and listened for about 3 minutes because he was speaking about 9/11 and, man, how he used it so viciously as an attack on President Clinton (he's still president imo) as a do-nothing pervert to a huge ovation from the idiots in the pews.

They love war.

4. I am a follower of Jesus but not a Christian
Because those that call themselves that are far far from the teachings of Jesus.
Some one needs to call them to repentance because it is obvious to those the do understand and follow the teachings of Jesus that they do a great evil that endangers this country as well as the souls of those sheeple that follow him.

5. He is a disgusting POS........
with his fat jowls hanging down, he's got more chins than a Chinese phone-book. This smarmy hatemonger has been around a long time. I don't remember him being this bad years ago. I guess these older "men of god" are trying to hasten the rapture before they shuffle off their mortal coil. They wouldn't want to miss it, then die and just fly up to heaven the regular old way. :eyes: These people ARE getting more bold with their rhetoric. It must be that "war on christianity" I keep hearing about. Why, they hardly have a voice in America any more because of the "war" on them. :eyes: It's more a war OF christianity than ON christianity. These hatemongers are really ratcheting up their war on anyone who doesn't believe the exact same thing as them.

Me? :shrug: I'm more a Flying Spaghetti Monster kind of guy. The FSM has better rules. Beer volcanoes and stripper farms beat floating around on a cloud playing a harp anytime. ;)

9. ...and anyway, what about those of us who never played...
...a stringed instrument?! I mean, I'm a DRUMMER, for god's s....(sorry, big dude). Anyway, I lost the end of one of my fingers in some bicycle spokes(yes, I was born a republican, but I grew up), and that would severely impair my ability to pluck harp strings.

I spent whole nights awake, contemplating this hideous dilemma when I was a child.

16. I like this stylized version......
better than the plain old spaghetti and meatballs version. I guess it's just a matter of choice since no one's actually SEEN the FSM. Then again, no one has ever seen Jesus either but people are SURE of what he looks like! He's that long-haired white guy with that sad look on his face. :(

8. I don't know why,
but I laughed when you said, "He's not even humble." I really don't know why that should be funny but it was.

13. ha! you made me laugh now...
I guess even making the assertation that, oh my goodness, Hagee's not even humble, is so comical that it would make anyone laugh.

hehe...

11. Sometimes I wonder if he even believes the tripe he spews.
I tend to think he's only gone in this progressively vitriolic direction because he's figured out pandering to the right-wing nuts is the ticket to wealth and a lavish lifestyle.

20. He once preached that Jesus was really a rich man
And that the "eye of the needle" biblical quotation was just a figure of speech (they didn't really mean that).

And he's just creepy to watch.

29. okay, now he's sacrilegious
did you see that on tv? that's just sick! Jesus Christ taught sacrifice. For Hagee to appease his own guilt of wealth by saying Jesus was just like him is an affront to Christ's teachings, but that's not surprising.

There's your Bush voter (all those people who would sit in those pews and cheer on the stuff I wrote about seeing, yesterday)

31. Yeah, that was quite a few years ago.
I remember being shocked because he did make some comments about his own income.

24. I keep thinking about
his size, and what he must eat, and what his blood pressure and cholesterol must be. And I keep wondering when the inevitable will happen, and I find myself almost wishing for a "FastForward" to see it. But I should be careful because wishing for bad to befall someone isn't right, and I don't need any bad kharma. So, I'm trying not to think about this horrible, hateful person.

25. Sometimes when I want a good laugh, I picture him and Jan Crouch together.
"let me lay my hands on your forehead, uh... where is it under that hair?"

30. have heard him 'in person' a few times
Edited on Mon Sep-11-06 02:47 PM by bobbieinok
One time he called San Antonio the 'satanist capitol, the witchcraft capitol of the USA.'

One time (when I was not in the 'audience') he spewed many 'jokes' about women who are overweight (he himself is quite overweight); I heard that many women walked out. Once a woman asked why so many male televangelists are overweight.

He and his ministry have made a series of movies about the rapture starring Gary Busey.
