Bryan Fischer Wants To Require All Immigrants To Convert To Christianity

http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/fischer-immigration-policy-bible-convert-christianity

On his radio program today, Bryan Fischer recommended that the United States adopt an immigration policy based upon the Bible, meaning that all immigrants must convert to Christianity and completely leave behind their native practices, beliefs, culture, and language.

If we "did immigration God's way," Fischer said, that would mean that "those who came to our shores would be expected to adopt our religious values and traditions — that would mean Christianity and not Islam — and they would leave behind their religion and their god."

"That would mean leaving behind Islam and Allah," he explained, as well as adopting Judeo-Christian values, which means they they would not be allowed to complain about the sale or consumption of bacon or the inability to obtain Halal foods.

"If this were to happen," he concluded, "we would have one god, we would have one law, we would have one culture, and we would have one language":

I become more and more convinced that idiots like Fischer are doing everything that they can to destroy Christianity, the same way that ISIL and Al Qa-eda have worked to destroy Islam!

In my opinion there is only one difference between ISIL and "Christians" like Fischer or Perkins...ISIL does their own dirty work...Fischer and Perkins they want the government to do it for them...too chicken shit to get their hands dirty!

And for those that follow Fischer and Perkins...they're just as bad as those who follow ISIL, because if given the chance they would be cutting heads off of those that refuse to convert to their twisted religious beliefs!!!

Not only don't observant Jews not eat bacon, they don't eat other things that people who eat a halal diet do. Moron.

Is Russian orthodox catholic the right one, or will mormon do?

Wait, problem solved, I'll become jewish and follow the ways of Jesus.
I admit, I cheated. My spell checker didn't complain that I didn't use a capital "C" in catholic.

Which language is that? Since he appears to be a fanatical Christian zealot, should i assume he means Koine Greek or perhaps Latin?

Maybe that page fell out of my copy?

I wonder what it's like to live inside his head. I imagine Alice in Wonderland ... on acid.
