You probably have never heard the term gay media religion so here’s a brief definition. It  when a gay media pundit  gets religion for a quick minute in order to make a media point about religion when it deals with gays.

Enter Washington Post opinion writer Jonathan Capeheart. Capeheart drudged up his inner religion to shoot at/throw stones at “conservatives” who don’t want to jump with wild abandon on the gays-are-the-best-thing-since-the-invention-of-the-toilet-paper wagon. To people like Capeheart, anything less than total acceptance of homosexuality,  is tantamount to desecrating the Auschwitz memorial.

In his opinion piece, He cites a bunch of polls to prove that homosexuals are the creme de la creme of American society. Perhaps that’s why they released the “study” which advanced the theory that having a gay marriage improves your health.

“Trying to exclude loving gay and lesbian families [is there such a thing as unloving gay families?], especially those with children, is a wasted effort. “The Decline of Marriage and Rise of New Families,” a November 2010 report by the Pew Research Center found that “63% say a gay or lesbian couple raising a child is a family.” That’s certainly less than full acceptance. But it’s still a majority of Americans.

A June 2010 Gallup survey put support for marriage equality at 52 percent. Among men it was 53 percent. And among Catholics, a stunning 62 percent. Those numbers were reconfirmed by a March 2011 Washington Post-ABC News poll that showed support for same-sex marriage at 53 percent of Americans, 53 percent of men and 63 percent of Catholics. That last percentage was a jump of 8 points since the question had been asked in February 2010.”

Capeheart’s media spasm is really aimed at attempting to minimize the truth that homosexuals can change. So he dutifully does his part to shoot it down by setting up “conservatives” as the strawman. Capeheart’s razor-thinly disguised arrogance at other people’s freewill and inalienable Constitutional rights to differ with him and other homosexual activists can be summed up with three main points:

1. All conservatives are gay-obsessed. That’s a favorite smoke bomb of those with religion du jour.  The phrase “gay obsessed” is intentionally undefined because if were, the fallacy of Capeheart’s  argument would quickly turn on him and his dear leader, the SOTUS. In fact, if you judged solely by the actions and policies and religious beliefs of Mr. #44, gay obsession would be a mild term.

2. Gays hate, hate, hate reparative therapy whether its the secular brand or the more comprehensive religious brand. We get that. You want to stay homosexual all your life to prove the point that no one can change from being homosexual. We get that. We get it that you want to ensure that all the trumped up policies and laws you have engineered based on a fallacious assumption that “sexual orientation” is immutable dont get wiped off the books by thinking people.

3.  Religion is like toilet paper. You use it only when you are trying to clean yourself up. That’s why out of 66 books with 1189 chapters and over 31,000 verses, the moderately intellectualized Capeheart has only seen two. And those are via Brent Childers of the gay religious organization Faith in America.

Romans 14:13 — Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another….
Ephesians 4:2 — Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

Capeheart cited the two partial verses from Faith in America. Guess what their motto is: “Religion-based bigotry is the No. 1 impediment to equality and full human dignity…Help us end it!”  How ironic.

I dont get why anti-bible homosexuals want to make the bible gay friendly. Let’s face it, its not and it never will be. They claim King James was a “flaming homosexual” . If that is true, its really proof that God, not man controls the content of the scripture. King James could have easily excised every single mention of homosexuality in the bible, but he didnt. He left it as is.  100% of the scripture in the bible that mention of homosexuality —save one— is irreconcilably condemn homosexual behavior. So unless, they rewrite it in their own image and likeness, it will continue to be as is.

And just for the record, the “save one” is when the Apostle Paul states with flourishing joy that there were ex-homosexuals in the Corinthian church. And such were some of you.

Satire at its best. Gotta love Kirk Cameron for bringing that truth with humor.

Too many of today’s pastors are being pressured (by the god of false success) to build churches with false converts. Such churches look great on the outside and appeal to “lights, action and camera” folks but there must be concern that souls are truly converted to Christ, not just become church members.

The Lawman Chronicles blog lists 10 marks of a false convert (feel free to add on):

1. You believe that you are inherently a good person, thus denying the doctrine of Original Sin.

2. You commit idolatry of the mind and blaspheme the very character of God by denying essential doctrines such as judgment, hell, regeneration, and justification by faith alone; and you replace the truth with lies such as sinless perfection and open theism.

3. You think that only the red-lettered words in your Bible are the words of Jesus and, therefore, the rest of the Bible can be interpreted and applied to your liking.

4. You believe that a person can be a Christian while wantonly engaging in habitual sin; such as homosexuality, fornication, adultery in mind or body, the support in any way whatsoever of the murder of the unborn, or any other sin.

5. You believe that because a person has prayed a prayer and asked Jesus into their heart, then they are saved.

6. You believe a person can be a Christian, even if they bear no fruit after making a profession of faith in Christ. You treat the grace of God as a license to sin. You like the word “backslider.”

7. You struggle with the thought of missing a meal; but going days, weeks, even months without reading your Bible doesn’t faze you.

8. You pray when you want something from God; but beyond that you have very little time for conversation with Him.

9. You believe that Darwinian, macro-evolution is a scientific fact and compatible with belief in the God of the Bible.

10. You see evangelism as a gift other people have; and you have no real concern about the fact that 150,000 people die every day, with the vast majority of them bound for hell. You soothe your conscience by convincing yourself that “friendship evangelism,” as it is most commonly practiced among American Christians, is actually in the Bible. You think that if you “let your little light shine,” you don’t have to verbally proclaim the gospel

Remember when the church of high priestess Oprah had the two “ministers” on who incredibly said homosexuality was a “gift from God?
If not, review it here. Although Oprah warmed up to the idea, she was a little surprised at the assertion.

Well, Todd Friel from Family Net did this show and used a nice little overlay of humor to drive home the truth. I had to chuckle at some of it, but the brother was on point. About 7 and a half minutes. Enjoy!

I’m sure people in the southern gospel music tradition found Mark Lowry hilarious, but I didnt. Lowry admitted  he “knew” what lesbian singer Marsha Stevens was “doing”. And that he was proud of her for doing it. What is she doing? Like others in the gay christian movement, Stevens is pushing the lie that homosexuality is not a sin and that any judgment whatsoever of a so called lgbt christian is a sin.

In the video, Lowry pushes more of the noncomittal brand of pop-christian belief that nothing matters except having  ”Jesus in your heart”. Basically, that’s a branch of thinking which disregards sound doctrine. Of course, that type of thinking helps when you want people to ignore sexual immorality and other ungodly behaviors the Bible says saints are not to be involved in.

Interesting, Lowry managed to talk about being single and getting married without ever mentioning the opposite gender. Intentional?

Here’s a new set of resources to help you harpoon and lampoon the emergent church message. I don’t know if this is ecm directed satire, but I believe it is. Even if it isnt, its as funny as it gets. Especially if you know about the insanity of postmodernist influence on Christianity. The posters are patterned after those popular corporate motivational art posters.

The site calls the posters:

“Motivational Posters for the Emerging Church Conversation Chaos”

Above is a sample of one of them. The creators are liberal with their use, as long as you link back to them. Enjoy!

UPDATE:

Turning the corner from humor to dead seriousness, the emergent church movement is handing the gay christian movement the head of the church on a silver platter. Its “rethinking” of Christianity is a dangerous breeding ground for apostate fruit. Already terms such as “dialogue” (remember Soulforce’s slithery invitation?) are taking center stage as an avenue to invite new voices, new thought and new ideas into what they have cleverly decided is a “dying”, “judgmental” Christianity. It will only be a matter of time (if it hasnt already behind the scenes) before these leaders include homosexual “voices” to help rethink Christianity. Sound familiar?

Thanks to Robert at Eric’s Corner blog, here is an eyewitness account of Robert Schuller’s ReThink Conference. Truly, our faith and the Word of God is under attack as never before. From within and without.

You can take this interesting quiz, which asks a series of theological questions and then scores you on your level of theological perspective. As I said its interesting, kind of in the tradition of the Myers-Briggs personality assessment.

From the comments we get, Im sure there are a lot of theological perspectives reading here. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad, we can only judge what you —or I— believe based on what the scriptures say. But if you were looking for a “name” for your perspectives, maybe this is it. If you’d like to share your results, feel free to do so in the comments area.

Note: not to be taken too seriously , unless of course you end up opposite of what the Bible says!
