"Those Damn Christians"
According to a new WND piece, Christians are in the bull's-eye in a new 'hate crimes' bill:
Will this proposed bill treat Muslims, Christians and Jews equally? Last I checked, Muslims are a bit more intolerant of homosexuality than are Christians and Jews, but it seems that the left will bend over frontwards and backwards in order to not offend Muslims. What's with that, anyway? Why are they not as concerned about offending Christians or Jews?
Put your thinking caps on folks. You may have had to take Religion 101 or have a limited background in Christian upbringing to figure this out, but stop and think real hard why Christianity and Judaism are the most hated religions of all time and will continue to be from here on out.
Give up? It's because secular people hate the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That covers Jews, but in addition to the God of the Old Testament, the secular left abhors the very mention of Jesus Christ. The mention of His name can cause apoplectic caterwauling of Biblical proportions.
The secular enemies of God and Jesus Christ will do anything it takes to marginalize those who stand for the Word of God and they are scurrying about to erase His name from this country's law books and institutions on which this country was built.
You'd think that the secular left would be more fearful of those who actually whack the heads off people for not converting to their religion of peace.
Have Christians been doing that? Go figure!
A fast-tracked congressional plan to add special protections for homosexuals to federal law would turn "thoughts, feelings, and beliefs" into criminal offenses and put Christians in the bull's-eye, according to opponents.What is it about Christians that so many secular people hate? After all, it's not like Christians are the most intolerant folks around. On the contrary, I can't think of a more tolerant group of people. O' sure, every broad category has exceptions, but Christians aren't out there calling for the death of homosexuals are they? We may not approve of homosexuality (or adultery, for that matter), but no one in my Christian circle of friends is intolerant of "gay" people; we just think homosexuality is a sin just as adultery and stealing and Sabbath breaking is a sin. We hate the sin, not the sinner. Is that intolerant?
"H.R. 1592 is a discriminatory measure that criminalizes thoughts, feelings, and beliefs [and] has the potential of interfering with religious liberty and freedom of speech," according to a white paper submitted by Glen Lavy, of the Alliance Defense Fund.
"As James Jacobs and Kimberly Potter observed in Hate Crimes, Criminal Law, and Identity Politics, 'It would appear that the only additional purpose [for enhancing punishment of bias crimes] is to provide extra punishment based on the offender's politically incorrect opinions and viewpoints,'" said Lavy.
The proposal has been endorsed by majority Democrats on the committee, and already has 137 sponsors in the full House, making it possible it could be voted on in a matter of days or weeks.
