God sends killer whales & bears to attack Americans, says speaker scheduled for Republican-heavy D.C. “Voter Values Summit”


(hat tip to rightwingwatch for catching this one)

“God said a curse would fall on a land which turned its back on him, and one consequence would be more tragic deaths at the hands of predatory animals.” – thus spake evangelist Bryan Fischer, referring to a recent deadly bear attack on a 70-year old man in Yellowstone National Forest. Earlier this year, Fischer made waves with his claim that a trainer at SeaWorld in Florida died from a Killer Whale attack because SeaWorld didn’t pay proper attention to Biblical scripture. Fischer is a confirmed scheduled speaker at the upcoming Family Research Council’s Voter Values Summit. Other confirmed speakers for the event are Mike Huckabee, and Republican Congressional Representatives Michelle Bachmann, and Mike Pence.

Though this might seem a bit over the edge to those unfamiliar with the contemporary Christian right it’s arguably the predominant belief, from the Christian Reconstructionist wing of the movement over through the more numerous charismatic evangelical camp, that all manner of disasters, from hurricanes and earthquakes, tornadoes and floods, murder and crime, economic downturns and stock market crashes, sickness and even death itself are divine vengeance, predictable outcomes of America’s failure to follow every last jot and tittle of Old Testament law.

For example, Christians United For Israel founder and mega-pastor John Hagee has claimed that Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans because of a planned gay parade. .............(more)

1. If God were cool enough to plan that shit out, I have a feeling they would of been unleashed by now

[WillyT]

2. But... If One Were To Follow - "... every last jot and tittle of Old Testament law."

Wouldn't one be Jewish???

Not that there's anything wrong with that... but how do the Christian Evangelicals feel about being Jewish?

:evilgrin:

[marmar]

3. But they're going to convert some of the Jews, and the rest will perish in flames, dontchaknow?

4. These people bring religion to yet a new low, they never give up. Could we

please have the rapture and be over with it...

[marmar]

6. Hasn't the rapture been postponed 3 or 4 times now?

7. LOL - maybe 12/21/2012 will be a turning point for them. I would just love to

see them float up into the heavens and be able to wave bye bye to them. I would like to remain here on earth with the heathens, my kind of people!

[WillyT]

8. And Curiously, If That Were To Happen... It Would Be Heaven On Earth

Can't wait!

And heathens are my type of people too!

"Written over the gate here are the words 'Leave every hope behind, ye who enter.' Only think what a relief that is! For what is hope? A form of moral responsibility. Here there is no hope, and consequently no duty, no work, nothing to be gained by praying, nothing to be lost by doing what you like. Hell, in short, is a place where you have nothing to do but amuse yourself."

George Bernard Shaw

:rofl:

10. LOL!!! You know, what you said is very insightful, it would be "Heaven on Earth" with

them gone! Maybe we've just misinterpreted what they've been saying! They're leaving behind "Heaven on Earth" for us. Can't wait! Bring on the heathens, I'm ready to party!!!

:toast: :toast: :toast: :hi:

9. There is truth in what you say.

"Unfortunately, echoing the statements of many family members in the schizophrenia.com discussion areas - the seriously mentally ill people who reported that their "religious beliefs influenced their decision making" were significantly less likely to use mental health care (because they were more likely to see the mental health issue as a religious issue and not a medical issue)"
