http://winningdemocrats.com/tea-party-christian-threatens-to-rape-a-disabled-child-because-her-parents-are-godless-fgs-screenshots/It would seem that Greg has bitten off slightly more than he can chew on this one. It could be that Greg is just a disturbed individual who enjoys being a bible-toting Tea Partier by day who takes on people who disagree with him by night with his tough guy keyboard warrior alter-ego who champions child molesting ministers and priests because he gets off on that sort of thing. It could also be, which is so often the case on social media, that this is the mans true personality rearing its ugly head and venting his anger that the world cant be the perfect haven for sexual predators that he so desperately desires.
The other possibility is that his Facebook account was actually hacked, for some reason, by someone who uses the same idiosyncrasies like snicker and smirk (old webTV talk) that Greg has used for years:
Godless figs?

(19,549 posts)Just as God condemned homosexuality at Sodom and Gomorrah, so did our precious Lord condemn figs when he whithered the fig tree.
And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward forever. And presently the fig tree withered away. Matthew 21:19
Now friends we cannot say that Gods wrath against the homosexual, and his hatred of figs are different. If Sodom and Gomorrah was a sign of Gods wrath against homosexuality, then Jesus withering the fig tree proves just as certainly that God hates figs.
Some godless liberals, who worship themselves, would tell you that Jesus curse applied only to the one particular tree in the story. But one would could just as easily say that God was only cursing the individuals at Sodom and Gomorrah and not homosexuals of today. May God forbid! We would be hypocrites to condemn one and not the other. Just as God wasnt just condemning that particular crowd in Sodom, we have equal certainty that Jesus curse applies to the figs of today.
Notice that Gods word says the curse would be forever. We cannot twist Gods word to be politically correct. Just as our reading of Genesis justifies rejecting homosexuals, so does our reading of the New Testament demand the same rejection of a fruit the Bible clearly calls naughty.
The other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad. Jeremiah 24:2-3
Read the whole post, it's hilarious and makes an excellent point.

His crap should be published in his local paper. Everyone who knows him should see what he wrote.

(29,658 posts)He threatened someone on Facebook that's a member of the same groups as I am. Turns out this wasn't the first time-others have come forward. As of yesterday all comments on the employer page were deleted,probably because his wife is the office manager.

xmas74
(29,658 posts)Bad. He's threatened numerous people, mostly women, and has a long rambling blog about his persecution beliefs. The wife seems to agree with him.
He attacks athiests, liberals, women, children, Down syndrome, autism, minorities and others. He sends private messages on Facebook, making threats. When the recipients state they've had a pm in a group he claims he's been hacked-while sending more threats via pm at the exact same time.
The police posted that they are investigating everything.

(49,533 posts)It implies that he's not a Christian - that he HAS to be something else because Christians are always good. That is bigotry against non-Christians, plain and simple.
Problem is, there's plenty of horrible bullshit in the bible on which to base his particular version. God punishing children for the sins of their fathers, condemnations of homosexuality, repeated references to marriage being between a man and a woman. Liberal believers can argue until they're blue in the face that we aren't supposed to take those verses seriously, that they were written for a specific time and place, etc., but that doesn't change the fact that those verses are still in the book. A book that Christians across the spectrum hold in high regard, most as the actual word of god.
He's a Christian, whether liberal Christians like it or not.

whatthehey
(3,660 posts)He's not attacking these people because they are non-golfers or non-philatelists. He's attacking them because they are willing to criticize Christian pedophiles openly.
Look at the attacks. He states his reasons for hating them - they are atheist and godless. It's not general assholery. It's directed faith-based assholery.

(16,423 posts)Some website, I forgot which one, once posted the hate-mail they had gotten.
One of those hate-mails was an awful, disgusting christian-extremist rant that ended with the following warning:
"And don't you dare to claim that this is hate-mail. It is not! This is God's love!"
And in other news of today, 6 guys from some obscure christian cult in the US got arrested because they didn't stop preaching in public, screaming in public, getting into people's faces, telling them that they are sinners and will burn in hell...
When confronted with the accusations, the guys said that they are merely spreading God's love and that they are being prosecuted for being Christians.
