"Pastor" Steven Anderson is still at it...

Now he's dredging up old racist accusations against Martin Luther King Jr...

Pastor Steven Anderson Releases Anti-Martin Luther King “Documentary” Called “Marxist Lucifer King”

January 15, 2015 by Hemant Mehta 252 Comments

Pastor Steven Anderson has been releasing a bunch of strange right-wing documentaries lately. There was the one about how AIDS is the “Judgment of God” and the one the horrors of birth control.

And now we have one trashing Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called Marxist Lucifer King:



The gist of the movie seems to be that King was a Baptist preacher… but not Anderson’s flavor of Baptist. Therefore, King was a heretic.

Actually, the most interesting part about the movie I saw last night (in the few minutes I could stand to watch) was the different view of Anderson’s church:

What qualification do you need to call yourself a Christian pastor? Is there a ceremony or something?

Cross your heart and hope to profit?

that this man and his ilk represent a very large chunk of the U.S.

As does Pat Robertson and his ilk, and the lists goes on and on.

This country is not moving forward, it is in rapid retreat.

This guy is a complete nut case.

I have watched several of his clips posted here a DU.
