Tim Wildmon Daily Journal Letter: Political Correctness Undermines Values…

http://djournal.com/opinion/tim-wildmon-political-correctness-undermines-values-patriotism/

Human Rights Violator, Bigot, and  AFA  President Tim Wildmon, representing The “Dark Side” Of Tupelo, MS, decided on July 27, 2014, he had every reason to slam Gay Football Star Michael Sam in his personal column because, for one reason, he Is allowed to do his little “dirty hate work” through the Tupelo Mississippi Daily Journal uncensored and supported by the Editor of course, and others.  

Wildmon’s post is as follows:

“The politically correct or ‘progressive’ crowd found a new target this week.When asked about ‘[Out and Proud]’ football player Michael Sam, former NFL coach Tony Dungy said he would not have drafted Sam had he still been coaching. Said Dungy: “I wouldn’t have [drafted] him. Not because I don’t believe Michael Sam should have a chance to play, but I wouldn’t want to deal with all of it. It’s not going to be totally smooth … things will happen.”

“‘For this comment, ESPN commentator Keith Olbermann named Dungy the ‘Worst Person in the World’ on Monday night. Condemnations of Dungy came from all over.’”

“This is where the ‘progressive’ movement is. If you hold a view that is not in agreement with theirs, you are to be demonized by them, the progressives, who, ironically, don’t believe in demons. Why do they do this? It’s because they, the progressives, consider themselves morally superior to [ “those of us who hold traditional values “Is Bigotry aimed at your fellow man, Wildmon, because he has a different sexual lifestyle than you, against ‘traditional values’ or are your ‘traditional values’  a national scam? ] “even though, again, ironically, progressives don’t believe in moral values unless they define them. They moralize against those who promote morality.” [And of course, you,Tim are a ,promoter, of morality’ and a pure hypocrite to boot].

“The progressive movement is out to destroy our country as it has existed. It is against patriotism. It is against religion in general and is in particular hostile to evangelical Christianity and traditional Catholicism. It is against borders. It is against capitalism. It is for high taxation and government control and regulation of almost everything. It wants people depending on government so they can be controlled. It believes government debt is good. It is against our Bill of Rights, in particular the First and Second Amendments. It is for abortion on demand even through nine months of pregnancy. It wants to downgrade the American military. It rejects the idea that Western Civilization is superior to other civilizations. And it most certainly is for promoting the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender movement and punishing people who dare speak against it. Basically, what I have just described is the platform of the modern day Democratic Party and the philosophy/agenda of much of the New York/Washington, D.C., liberal media, Hollywood and most university campuses. When Barack Obama said he wanted to ‘fundamentally transform’ America, what he was saying to his fellow hardcore progressives was: ‘I’ve got the wrecking-ball ready.’”

“Sexually, God made man for woman and woman for man. It’s obvious. It’s natural. Progressives can’t stand this. So they are always trying to equate homosexuality with heterosexuality or elevate homosexuality over [above] heterosexuality. When someone like Dungy makes a comment that can in any way been seen as challenging this narrative then that person must be immediately discredited or publicly shamed no matter the truth of what he is saying.”

[ Wildmon forgot to mention the fact that God also made lesbian/gay women for lesbian/ gay women. If he doesn’t believe that, how can he  possibly believe God made him to be the only true straight man on earth–the other Adam yet to be mentioned in the Biblical Scriptures. As for Tony Dungy, Wildmon has no idea what he was really trying to say about Michael Sams, he decided he would offer-up his opinion, regardless, and in the Tupelo Mississipppi Daily Journal where fact checking is unknown when it comes to their Pious & Good Community Columnist, Tim Wildmon!]  

Wildmon: “By the way, having been a sports reporter for a few years I’ve been in many football locker rooms where the players walk around naked or half-naked, changing clothes and going in and out of the showers. Putting a man like Sam, who says he is sexually attracted to men, in with all that “beefcake” [a common gay term used to describe sexually attractive macho men and boys]  seems unfair to the straight players and a distraction to Sam. Would you put a heterosexual man in the locker room/showers with all the female cheerleaders? Would you tell the girl cheerleaders who objected to this man being in the locker room that they needed to end their bigoted and sexist attitude and treat the man with respect?

[You would need to ask the female cheerleaders that question, don’t you think, Pious Tim.]

“Tony Dungy will probably survive being the ‘worst person in the world.’ But the fact that he is in the crosshairs of the PC Gestapo over this comment is chilling to free speech and free thinking. It’s ironic that the people who now scream the loudest about tolerance have become the least tolerant among us.”–Tim Wildmon. 7-27-14. (885 +- words)

The Hobby Lobby Decision Makes ‘Religious Freedom’ A Euphemism For Imposing Religious Doctrine…

by H.A. Goodman, HP, 7-25-2014.

Christian Science Monitor summed up the Hobby Lobby decision by explaining, “The US Supreme Court ruled on June 30 that the owners of closely-held, profit-making corporations cannot be forced under the Affordable Care Act to provide their employees with certain kinds of contraceptives that offend their religious beliefs.” As a result, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s dissent highlighted how the term “religious freedom” can mean different things.

The Hoax

Sen. Bernie Sanders, HP, April 13, 2013.

Climate Deniers like to joke about the effects of Climate Change and even outright deny what the scientific community has been trying to tell them for years about the dire effects. But, when Climate Change continues unchecked as it is now, and extreme,  widespread  famine becomes so severe it closes down the Deniers food, water and beverage supplies, they will start to whine and pull their hair and scream as loud as they can. No doubt, by that time, it will be too late to save themselves from becoming the prime food source of thousands of cannibals of every stripe that will be roaming the countrysides in search of their share of edible protein. It will be called survival of the fittest in a never-before-seen-jungle where the law says, “it’s every man for himself!” Learn to live with it, Climate Deniers!–ABratt

“‘…’Democrats had larger anterior cingulate cortexes, which are associated with tolerance to uncertainty, while Republicans had larger right amygdalas, which are associated with sensitivity to fear.’ Liberals ask, ‘Why can’t we all get along? And conservatives respond, ‘Why are you threatening traditional values?'”–Burnett

Bryan Fischer, AFA mouth-piece from the “Dark Side” of Tupelo, MS, claims “Conservatives are smarter than Liberals,” but I’m inclined to believe that a Conservative like Fischer, who discovers himself and his AFA listed on the SPLC’s hate group list, to be totally irrelevant in almost any subject on which he elaborates.  –AB

“A Christian Plot For Domination” [A Must-Read Expose` For Every Sane, Concerned American]

“A Christian Plot For Domination” [A Must-Read Expose` For Every Sane, Concerned American]

(2 pgs.) By Michelle Goldberg, Daily Beast, 8/14/11

“Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry aren’t just devout—both have deep ties to a fringe fundamentalist movement known as Dominionism, which says Christians should rule the world.”

…“a recent Texas Observer cover story on Rick Perry examined his relationship with the New Apostolic Reformation, a Dominionist variant of Pentecostalism that coalesced about a decade ago. ‘[W]hat makes the New Apostolic Reformation movement so potent is its growing fascination with infiltrating politics and government,’ wrote Forrest Wilder. Its members ‘believe Christians—certain Christians—are destined to not just take ‘dominion’ over government, but stealthily climb to the commanding heights of what they term the ‘Seven Mountains’ of society, including the media and the arts and entertainment world.’”

And, to accompany Michelle Goldberg’s expose` here’s more rom Right Wing Watch:

“It seems that Liberty Counsel’s Matt Barber is none-too-pleased with the coverage that dominionism and its influence and role within the Religious Right movement has been receiving in the media and on blogs like Right Wing Watch and so he has decided to attack those  who have been writing about it.”

Perry, Prayer, Politics & The Presidency 8-9-11

by Peter Montgomery, Right Wing Watch

“Casual viewers of ‘The Response,’ including some political reporters who don’t pay a lot of attention to the Religious Right, may have watched Texas Governor Rick Perry’s prayer rally on Saturday and wondered what all the fuss was about. Most of the time was taken up with prayer and praise music. Few of the speakers seemed overtly political. Nobody used the occasion to endorse Perry’s pending presidential bid.”

“Context for this event was remarkable: a governor launching a presidential bid by teaming up with some of the nation’s most divisive extremists to hold a Christians-only prayer rally.” In essence, suggesting Americans are unable to resolve the nation’s problems without the Almighty’s presence. The issue wasn’t about if it was proper for a “politician to pray, or the size of the audience,” but it was about the purposes of the ‘Response’s planners and their outlook for the overall good of America.

Black Ministers Urge Perry To Denounce Divisive Rhetoric At Prayer Event

By Marie Diamond, TP, Aug. 5, 2011

“Tomorrow in Houston, Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) will hold his much-anticipated prayer event known as “The Response.” The event has been mired in controversey for weeks as Perry has faced criticism over its exclusion of non-Christians, the hateful rhetoric and beliefs of pastors who are participating, and questions about whether he is violating the separation of church and state.

Now, a group of African-American ministers is urging Perry to publicly denounce the divisive rhetoric of the event’s sponsor, the American Family Association (AFA). The AFA has a long history of “making derogatory remarks about gays and lesbians, progressives, Native Americans, African Americans and non-Christians.”

Leslie Watson Malachi, director of African American Ministers in Action, a nationwide network of African American clergy, expressed his disappointment that Perry “has chosen to ally himself not with voices of unity and hope but with forces of division and intolerance.” His group is asking Perry to use the rally to unite communities with prayer and “pray for a better future for all Americans.”

AFA, Dark Side Tupelo MS, Pentecostal Origin, Religious Right, Seven Mountains Domininism, Tim Wildmon

Well, throw me down! AFA’s Tim Wildmon forgot to mention his involvement in the Seven Mountains Dominionist Crusade which is a plan(originating with Pentecostal Church Activists) to take control and influence of America in seven specific areas: family, religion, education, entertainment, business, media and government. One well-known dominionist declared, “if you have those seven areas, you can shape and control whatever takes place in nations, continents, and even the world.”

Who would have ever thought Tim Wildmon might someday sit right in the very lap of the Almighty, endowed with control of the “whole world” ? – ab

“Another reason to get your tickets for this year‘s Value Voters Summit, a fund raising letter from the American Family Association promises that its new “documentary” — Divorcing God: Secularism, Sexual Anarchy and the Future of the Republic — will debut at the VVS, the major annual political gathering for the Religious Right movement.”
