Are your kids being deprived because the Religious Right declares their hero's "unacceptable"?

Religious extremists have decided that the Harry Potter books are not acceptable for children because they have a Homosexual (gay) character in them. Isn’t that rich! A fiction sequence of novels has been determined to be hazardous to children by the right wing Religious Right.

I find this very interesting as well as extremely revealing. First of all the books are fiction. None of the characters in the books are real. They don’t exist! Isn’t it a bit crazy to decide that something that is fictional isn’t acceptable? That’s like saying that anything that is improvable is fictional and therefore not acceptable. What does that say about the bible?

Isn’t it interesting that instead of cleaning up the messes they have within their organization with preachers, pastors, and others in positions of power and those who have access to the very children they are so worried about they find it necessary to attack a fictional character? Much like Jerry Farewells attack on Tinky Winky, the entire saga appears to be just another attempt to play with the minds of others.

They didn’t approve of the Harry Potter series to begin with because of the “mystical” aspects of the document. Compared to what? The bible?

I think the entire thing is ridiculous! Children need a bit of magic in their childhood. It’s good for the creative mind. It’s good for the “I want to understand” inquisitive maturity of their being. It also develops their ability to decipher reality from fiction…. AHHHH there’s the rub… If they develop that capability God knows what will happen… They won’t believe all the crap these hypocrites want to pump into their minds. Well that part of the mystery is solved but what other reasons would they have for attacking a Fictional Character?

I heard on spokesman for the Religious Wrong saying that kids would say that they needed to try this Gay thing out because they read it in Harry Potter. Can you imagine saying “I think I’ll try being gay” based on a fictional character? If your kids are that easily manipulated you have more problems than them “trying gay”! Talk about Paranoia! They are more likely to try “suicide bomber” based on reality!

By the way, I heard there are rumors that Burt and Ernie, Peppermint Pattie, & Bugs Bunny were all gay. At least these zealots don’t have to worry about them having abortions right?

Good Riddance Jerry! You’ll Be Remembered for the Hateful Man you were!

I have been hearing all the revisionist bull shit on TV about what kind of person Jerry Falwell was. Where were these people during the late 80’s early 90’s? Jerry Falwell is the face, the very image of Homophobia! This man prior to the 80’s hated Blacks and tried to use his pulpit to justify slavery, and fought the civil rights movement until forced to repent later in his life.

That is when he decided to direct his hatred toward the Gay and Lesbian community. During the beginning of the AIDS crisis Jerry states such vile assessments as “AIDS is god’s wrath on the Gay community for their sinful lifestyle.” Of course this proved to be totally ridiculous as many Heterosexuals became ill with this dreaded disease. He was Regan’s confidant on many issues including the AIDS crisis which is why of course Regan failed to do anything to address the crisis. Jerry had convinced Regan that AIDS was a Gay disease sent by God and after all, why would we want to do anything to stop the handy work of a loving god who according to Falwell had inflicted such misery on the sinful Gay community!

Jerry was a man of Lucifer! He was no man of god! His life’s work was dedicated to causing misery and mayhem. Look at the Bakers and what Jerry did to them.
Jimmy & Tammy Fay Baker spoke last night about what Jerry did to the PTL club and how he wrenched it from their hands. When the Bakers decided they wanted to take the operation of the PTL back from Falwell he denied them. He decided they were unfit to operate it. Imagine Jerry Falwell making such a determination. OUTRAGOUS!!!

Another of his many notable blunders was 9-11. He proclaimed to the world that the reason the USA was struck on 9-11 was because they were accepting of Homosexuals. The United States was being punished by God for their acceptance and inclusiveness of the “Homosexual Lifestyle”. All of which the Republican Party accepted as some revelation from god leading George Bush to seek Constitutional Amendments adding hate to the US constitution.

He along with his partners in crime, Pat Robertson, Donald Wildmon, & James Dobson made millions of dollars on the backs of the Gay and Lesbian community. Jerry Falwell was the ring leader as he started the “Moral Majority” which resulted in Dobson’s “Focus on the Family”, Donald Wildmon’s “American Family Association” both of which have blossomed into harbors of hate for the religious right and further attacks on the Gay and Lesbian Community. Billions and Billions of dollars have been made by these people preaching pure hate against one segment of mankind. All will be remembered for their Hate as they pass from this life to the eternal one.

Yes, we will remember!
