You Can’t Lampoon a Religion, Unless it is Christian!
September 23, 2008 8:56 am Christian Life IssuesMake fun of Islam… never! How insensitive! Make fun of the Jewish faith? No! But make fun of a Christian believer that attends a Pentecostal, Holy Ghost Church? Why sure! Pile on! That is what is happening with Republican Vice Presidential Nominee Sarah Palin. She believes in God, is a Christian, and attends a Pentecostal church. So, political cartoonists are having a heyday with her beliefs, including speaking in tongues. After all, it is just Christianity! It doesn’t count! Right?
Never mind that Holy Ghost, Bible totin’, tongue talkin’ Christianity is simply God’s own pure Truth from His Word! You have to wonder what He thinks about all the vile “humor” that is coming out about His Word, and His doctrine. Somehow, I don’t think He is all that amused. Not that He can’t deal with it Himself (and, I am sure, will) but it does make my “righteous indignation” overheat a bit!
But, to me, the bottom line is the underlying symptom behind this. Liberal anti-God forces choose to belittle the truth Word of God, while making excuses for religions that have a stated agenda of “killing the infidels,” such as Islam. Oh, I am sorry, it is a kind, peaceful religion! My bad! Meanwhile, beheadings, and all kinds of evil, takes place in the name of that “kind, sweet” belief… while Christianity is lampooned in our own newspapers. And, while most Americans just read these “jokes” snicker, and move on with their lives… I have to reflect and wonder…
What has happened to our country in such a short time?
