The Evangelical movement has been undergoing a bit of an evolution.
While family values once dominated their agenda, the younger generations are expanding their horizon by getting involved in the anti-war movement, cleaning up the environment and taking on more universal social responsibilities.
Horrified by the 21st century and the prospect of change, more ardent evangelicals are speaking out against those damned whipper-snappers.
Take, for example, Joel Belzâs recent column in World magazine:
âŚMaybe we need to go to work and do a better job of explaining to them why weâve put the emphasis where we have for the last generation and why we believe that itâs time not to lower our voices.
Evangelicals shouldnât be embarrassed to say boldly and clearly: Abortion and same-sex marriage are uniquely heinous sins. They rattle the foundations of a civilized society. They take a culture in a dreadful direction. We havenât been wrong to say so. We arenât fanatics.
Tell that to Peter LaBarbera, who complements the Belz excerpt with what essentially amounts to a hit list of homo organizations and people that deserve Evangelical ire. Writes LaBarbera: ââŚHere are 20 more good reasons why Christians (or anyone) should never feel guilty about a single-minded focus in countering the homosexual/transsexual activist and pro-abortion lobbies.â HRC, Tim âHomosexual money manâ Gill, Barney Frank, bloggers Jeremy Hooper and Pam Spaulding, as well as a host of other homos, appear on the list.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
âNot fanatics,â indeed.

What will the world come to when we let people choose their own fate and start helping poor people live better lives and clean up the Earth…. AHHHHHHHHH
If only people would realize that the world won’t blow up if we let grown adult men decide for themselves that they would like to date other men. Thank God Sodomy is at least legal now.

Belz:
“But here’s the difference: What evangelical do you know who says insensitivity to the poor should be promoted? What evangelical leader is calling for more racism? Who advocates the uncontrolled plundering of the environment?”
OK seriously, it can’t be hard to find evangelicals saying 1) something insensitive to the poor, 2) racist, and 3) dismissive of environmental issues.
Let’s get on it, it’s like a treasure hunt! The prize is yummy bullshit!

Bombing abortion clinics, and killing and stalking their staff, year after year spending WAY TOO MUCH time “investigating” leather events, and promoting your ex-gay poster boy du jour…(who oddly have relapses at an alarming rate, so they have to keep changing poster boys)….petey has promoted THREE different poster boys who ALL FAILED hetero 1-001.
yeah, not a fanatic bone in their whole twisted bloated bodies.
