PHOTO: Are we being told only this brand of "Christian" is "real" American

[Bluebear]

What oversized US flags have to do with Mrs. Schiavo is beyond me, I can only assume the intermingling is another way to campaign for re-uniting church and state?

1. Yes that is what we are being told.

[The Backlash Cometh]

2. Yep, that about sums it up.

[Kikosexy2]

3. (Sighhh!)...

I miss the hippie love-ins at Haight-Ashbury in San Fran during the 60s--don't you??

10. Hugging, holding, loving, canoodling.....

Where have all the flower-children gone? Replaced by these scary-freaky zealots?

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Yep and we are geting a peek into the revival tent

[mmonk]

5. Yes

that's the line.

6. Like I give a damn

We've never had monolithic Christianity in America - and we ain't gonna start now, beeeeatch!

[Bouncy Ball]

7. THe song that goes

"The freaks come out at night, the freaks come out AT night.." keeps going through my mind.

Yes, you are supposed to believe that THAT is what America is.

And Jesus wept.

8. They are all crazy and need to be "deprogrammed"

[BuyingThyme]

9. Are those the same flags they pulled out of their attics when

Bush started murdering people in Iraq?

[gratuitous]

11. Guess that makes my brand of Christianity not very American

We don't have a flag in our sanctuary. Never have, never will (at least while I'm a member there).

[Obviousman]

12. Sadly yes

Yesterday was the 25th anniversary of Oscar Romero's death. There was absolutely no coverage of him. People in America couldn't care less about his message. It's up to us to change that.

13. *ssholes for Jesus

Those people shown are, plainly and simply, assholes for Jesus Christ.

No other way to put it.

No offense meant for the many good and decent Christians who are not fundies and who do not go along with shrub and the RW gang.

14. Walks like a cult, quacks like a cult

Revalationist cultists use parts of the bible to justify themselves, picking and choosing. These people are just Cultists and the MSM doesn't understand that that there is no difference here between most of these people and any other fringe cult. They are certainly not "mainstream christians".

15. And God looked down upon them and said...

"These people are a real pain in the ass."
