More Religious Brainwashing - Child Is Taugh Hatred, Cheered For Anti-Gay Song

By seamus -


Last week I wrote about a North Carolina pastor proposing a homosexual concentration camp. Thought I'd seen the worse of this kind of hate and ignorance for a while - but the Internet happened.

Watch the video. Just...watch it.

The short version is: a little church-goer in Greensburg, Indiana, went up to the mic to perform a little song for his fellow church-goers. What did he sing? He certainly didn't praise Jesus. To my shock and astonishment, he began to sing "Ain't No Homos Gonna Make It To Heaven" - to the roaring applause and cheer of the adult church-goers. I don't think I've seen such an engrossing display of indoctrination, hatred and ignorance. And that is made all the more clear by juxtaposition: after all, the person that delivers this light, happy-sounding tune is a child, a budding human being we oft associate with innocence. And innocent this is not...

It's not the poor kid's fault. However, I don't think I can call the adults that encourage, teach and applaud this behavior human beings. It's such a depressing and unnerving proof of the fact that most hate is taught, and the fact that some people apply this level of brainwashing at such an early age is disgusting. I don't see why authorities aren't doing anything about this: to me, this is child abuse.

The Apostolic Truth Tabernacle, Greensburg, Indiana
By the way, let me quote the motto featured on the web page of this church:


Welcome to Apostolic Truth Tabernacle - where our doors are open to you regardless of your background or where you are on your spiritual journey.

We are striving to become the kind of church described in the Bible, where there's relevant teaching, heart-felt worship, honest friendships, constant prayer, and compassionate care for those in need. In short, we'd like to have the kind of contagious Christianity that can influence and encourage the entire community, one life at a time.

So whether you're a spiritual seeker who's just starting to ask questions about God, or a committed Christian who wants to sink the roots of your faith even deeper, you can find a home here at Apostolic Truth Tabernacle. You'll find that this is a place where you really matter — because you matter to God.

Right. Except if you're a homosexual, or lesbian, or a Buddhist, atheist or Muslim. Or if you want to abort a child out of rape. The generosity and compassion of the Christian spirit does not extend to anyone else other than themselves. Tell me know - what is the essential difference between this congregation and, say, the KKK? Given what we see in this video, are both groups not instigators of hatred, promoters of ignorance and hateful, brainwashing bigots?

    Now personally I dont support gay marriage, however this has gone overboard because its not even true. Homosexual will go to heaven if they believe. I know im going to get a lot of crao for saying this, but homosexuality is a sin. We are all sinners though. Also you paint all christians with the same brush. Whats funny is that you turn around and call US ignorant. Everyone else is just as ignorant as christians.

World's Fattest Woman Plans To Get Fatter

I’ve always thought that humanity as a species has reached its apex in the food chain of the planet due to evolution. Objectie natural selection and the challenges our species faced along the eons has shaped its body and pshychology. Evolution gave us our brains, and it was our most succesful tool. We have our civilization now, as our darwinian reward. Yet in may ways, we’ve broken free from the chains of natural selection and are now a sufficiently powerful element on our plan to dictate our own evolution. Now – why the introduction? Well, it’s people like Susanne Eman  that make me realize just how badly evolution (more importantly, natural selection) can be mocked and toppled by our civilization. You see, morbid obesity isn’t a survival trait. Yet we have Susanne here, an 32 yeard old American woman that weighs in at 340 kilos and is proud of it. „ . Deep down I had always known I wanted to be fat, but I thought I was alone in this feeling. ” Says Susanne on her official w

The Amazing Fig Wasp Makes You Ponder Life

Hey there! Whenever you've had a tasty fig or two, have you ever paused to ponder on big issues like mortality, the cycle of life and - what the heck are those crunchy  bits inside the fig? The tiny hole at teh bottom of the fruit is  called an ostiole - remember that. What is the connection between figs, wasps and the more philosophical questions about life, death and purpose? It's all in the very peculiar and amazing symbiotic relationship between the fig tree and the fig wasp. When you think of wasps, you're thinking of the black and yellow striped nuisance and pesky cousin of the more benign and lovable bee. In fact, if you were to take a look at the fig wasp, you'd have a hard time telling them apart from a mosquito with the naked eye - not to mention that the males of the species have an odd, wingless worm like appearance. But the destinies of this fascinating insect and the fig tree are intertwined: fig wasps ensure that new fig plants se
