Rapture Ready "Christians": Dobson speaks for me; Obama listens to "monkey god"
http://www.rr-bb.com/showthread.php?t=50745

News story:

NEW DELHI: Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama can now expect help from an unexpected quarter — Lord Hanuman.

All-India Congress Committee member Brij Mohan Bhama has organised a 11-day religious ceremony at Karol Bagh here for his success in the U.S. elections.

The idea of sending an idol of Hanuman dawned on him after friends in the United States mentioned a “prominent American politician who carried a miniature Hanuman idol in his pocket for luck,” Mr. Bhama said speaking on the first day of the ceremony on Tuesday.

“After hearing that, I decided to gift Mr. Obama a larger, gold-plated version along with the wishes of thousands of his supporters in this country,” said the leader struggling to lift the 15 kg, 21-inch brass idol.

Dr. Dobson speaks for me: Obama ‘Distorting’ Bible, Pushing ‘Fruitcake Interpretation’ of Constitution

I cannot imagine in my wildest dreams that the "Sermon on the Mount" justifies homosexual unions. That's not what my God justifies. Maybe the monkey god told him that.

It gives me chills that the whole world seems to embrace this guy. Last month my wife and I met a couple from Bermuda, and all they would talk about was how excited they were about Obama. We responded in silence.

6. shower with little boys much? how come he doesn't get asked about this?
"he boy's father has to do his part. He needs to mirror and affirm his son's maleness. He can play rough-and-tumble games with his son, in ways that are decidedly different from the games he would play with a little girl. He can help his son learn to throw and catch a ball. He can teach him to pound a square wooden peg into a square hole in a pegboard. He can even take his son with him into the shower, where the boy cannot help but notice that Dad has a penis, just like his, only bigger." (Dr. Nicolosi - excerpt from transcript <2>

10. Here...
:scared:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_Ready

Purpose

Rapture Ready's stated purposes include warning those non-Christians who, according to the Pre-tribulation system of Evangelical Christian eschatology, will be left behind after the rapture that they still have hope in Jesus Christ if they repent of their sins and turn to God through Jesus Christ his Son. It also has as a stated purpose to explain what will happen during the period of time after the rapture including the seven-year period commonly known as Daniel's 70th Week, Jacob's Time of Trouble or The Tribulation Period which terminates with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

9. And another smear is born.
Soon not only will he be a Muslim atheist who goes to an evil church, but he'll also be a Hindu who worships a scary 'animal' god and is the Christian Antichrist. And that's just the religious part!

And bonus points go to whatever Reichwing ghoul decides to start calling Obama a 'monkey-worshipping monkey.'
