Christian group wants ’self-mutilating’ Obama appointee fired

[NJmaverick]

Truly evil people- the religious right

The conservative American Family Association is calling on President Barack Obama to fire Amanda Simpson, Obama's transgender appointee to the Commerce Department, because the appointment "puts the weight of the federal government behind the normalization of sexual deviancy."

"'Amanda' is a biological male in every cell of his body, and no amount of surgical mutilation is ever going to change that," AFA President Tim Wildmon said in a press release circulated Thursday. "It's a mistake for our president to appoint such a sexually confused individual to a position of public responsibility."

Wildmon went on to say that "gender is assigned by the Creator at the moment of conception, and no healthy society should ever regard sexual mutilation, even if it's self-inflicted, as something that's normal and merits approval."

He ended by saying the "appointment should be rescinded immediately."

2. The talibornagains are more hung up on sex than the non Christian sex fiends

[babylonsister]

4. There are probably Christian sex fiends, and someone needs to

check out the members of AFA. :grr:

3. Science FAIL.

They might as well have said that:

"race is assigned by the Creator at the moment of conception, and no healthy society should ever regard racial mutilation, even if it's self-inflicted, as something that's normal and merits approval."

Perhaps a few thousand letter-writers should ask them what race Obama is assigned to.

5. "'Amanda' is a biological male in every cell of his body..."

Since when did the religious right start believing in biology?

17. Ding! Ding! Ding! Winning point in this thread, right here!

They are almost completely contradictory on every issue.

9. Idiot

Wildmon went on to say that "gender is assigned by the Creator at the moment of conception, ...

How about babies born with the sexual reproduction organs of both genders? Was God just screwing around or was he distracted that day?

[NJmaverick]

11. They never have an answer to that one

[patrice]

18. How about hermaphroditic animals? What about life on other planets?

19. I brought that up to my fundy MIL and SIL once.

They had no idea that such a condition existed. Total ignorance. I laughed at them, I just couldn't help myself.

10. The crazy fundies and their hatred of all things non missionary position.

The appointment is good, the woman has the credentials to do the job. The fundies can eat dirt.

12. The most sex-obsessed groups on the planet are religious fundamentalists...

They are so obsessed with what goes on in other peoples' bedrooms and what is under other peoples' clothing, that I don't know how they have the time to do anything else.

For years now I've been 100% behind the slogan "Focus On Your Own Damn Family."

15. Have you heard what they are saying about Avatar? Where you and I saw living fiber optics,

they saw beastiality. I guess it was those long frond like things the animals had. I was completely flabbergasted when I heard/saw their reference beastiality (some guy who was on Thom Hartman's program this week - and I won't use his name, because I don't want him to rise in social technology).

So, what I was looking at and thinking "Oh, living fiber optics, an organic network like a nervous system . . . ", or I was also noting how the Navi's hands were different, so I was thinking the glowing fibers were like hands reaching for one another, anyway, where I and probably not just a few others was/were thinking of completely OTHER sorts of hypotheses, Christians* were thinking of beastiality.

A VERY revealing fact, that.

20. I guess if they point fingers at others, they are hoping no one will notice

their own perversions.

[patrice]

21. I think they, essentially, hate themselves and, therefore, wish to Die, but, since they

are also biologically programmed to manifest various "defense systems", they defend themselves against the cognitive and emotional dissonance of wishing to Die, by projecting that which they hate onto convenient, and very often defenseless (!!!) others.

They are soooooooooooooo obsessed with sex and that drives so much about them, including their preoccupation with abortion, when THEY, in fact, are also TRUE Abortionists. They CAUSE the very thing that they claim to hate.

[patrice]

13. Christians* are weak: Soooo dependent upon external others for who and what they are.Threatened by

EVERYTHING that is different.

They are way more obsessed than normal folk with things like beastiality and the details of what other people are doing with their private body parts.

They shout from the rooftops "WE ARE WEAK. WE CAN'T DO/BE/LIVE RIGHT INDEPENDENTLY. EVERYONE MUST CONFORM SO THAT WE WON'T STRAY."

* Even though these people are the opposite of Jesus, a man who stood and followed the path of Truth without social support, I use the word "Christain", somewhat in error, to refer to them for the sake of the internet search engines in our world.

14. I always looked at it differently, they use religion as a cover for their bigotry

prejudices and fears. They try turn their baser human instincts into something good by the manipulation of religious teachings.

[patrice]

16. I'm certain that IS part of what they are too. The key is dishonesty, i.e. the opposite of "I am the

Way, the Truth, the Light . . ."

[ZombieHorde]

22. "no healthy society should ever regard sexual mutilation, even if it's self-inflicted, as some..."

They are pro-circumcision, which is definitely sexual mutilation.

23. What's the fundies explanation for intersexed children?

Did GAWD frak that up, or should we just sent intersexed babies to the gas chambers so that fundie theology is not challenged by their mere existence?

[Cha]

24. Fucked up busybodies need to tend

to their own damn house.

25. Go fuck yourself American Family Association! nt
