My "WTF?" of the day, religion division...

These two assholes are pissing over the Commandment, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
In other words, Don't lie about someone else, assholes!



Jesse Lee Peterson Says Democratic Prayers For Rep. Scalise Are ‘Phony’ Because Dems Are ‘Children Of Satan’

By Kyle Mantyla | June 16, 2017 10:46 am

Right-wing commentator and radio host Jesse Lee Peterson ripped Democrats as a bunch of phonies who hate God on his show yesterday in the wake of the shooting of Republican Rep. Steve Scalise and others earlier this week.

Peterson was reacting to reports that Democrats had gathered in prayer upon learning of the shooting, which he declared was “phony stuff” because Democrats hate God and are “children of Satan.”

“This is not real,” Peterson said. “What are the Democrats praying for? The Democrats are not of God. All of a sudden when Scalise gets shot, when they hear about the shooting, all the children of Satan are going to come together and pray? Please!”

“The Democrats don’t love God,” he continued. “They could care less about God. Their father is Satan and that’s the reality.”

Peterson said that “Democrats are not about morality, they’re not about love, they don’t care about anything but politics and power,” which is why they are trying to corrupt the nation by supporting things like marriage equality and transgender rights and “everything that’s bad.”

“Why would you want to pray with the children of Satan?” Peterson rhetorically asked Republicans. “They serve a different God than you. That’s reality.”

Bryan Fischer: ‘The People On The Left Were Celebrating’ Shooting of Steve Scalise

By Safiyah Riddle | June 16, 2017 10:02 am

On his show on the American Family Radio network Wednesday, Bryan Fischer claimed that “the people on the left” are “celebrating” the shooting of Rep. Steve Scalise, which he insisted was one of the “eerie parallels” between the progressive movement and Islam.

early childhood nutrition programs, public assistance of all types, and the list goes on.

The Jesus I learned about at a very young age, would have been tossed into the same hole this guy threw ALL Democrats in.

They idea that laws and societal mores are still influenced by the fucking make believe of Christianity etc is pathetic.
