Noxious fundamentalist gasbag Bryan Fischer has come up with a bizarre new definition of a 'Christian' nation: it's one where you can buy bacon. According to Fischer:
"You want one single item of proof that America is a Christian nation and not a Jewish nation and not an Islamic nation?" he asked. "One single bit of proof is all you need: we freely allow restaurants and grocery stores to sell and to serve bacon. That can only happen in a Christian country.""So the sheer fact that we freely allow the sale and consumption of bacon," he continued, "is absolute proof that we are, in fact, a Christian nation"
And where does that leave China? According to Modern Farmer, each person in China eats about 39 kilograms of pork a year; the average American eats about 27 kilograms.
Wow! China must be a super-Christian nation. Except it's not, is it?
Fischer is mute on the subject.
But the sheer, mind-numbing hypocrisy of Fischer and his ilk is almost breathtaking. On the one hand, Fischer and his merry band of hate-merchants justify their endless jeremiads against LGBT people with quotes from Leviticus 18. But Leviticus 11 is unambiguous about pork products like, erm...bacon:
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
Yep...seems pretty unambiguous to me: bacon is off the menu.
these guys seem to think they are privy to God's thoughts, daily planner and what the next move will be if we do or don't something they are ranting about on any given day aside from being blasphemous it shows there is no reverence for God and their hate filled teachings reflect that. i wonder do those following these embellishments are doing so from ignorance or just following the hate because it for fills their need to believe in something?
but shouldn't they pick up a Bible and read for themselves and stop being subjected to the ignorance of those holding a first class ticket to hell?
