unhinged conservative Texas Christian pastor doesn't think women should vote

“If we had a Christian nation and women could vote, then within 50 years we will no longer have a Christian nation,” Webbon said. “God has not designed women for warfare, and that’s part of what politics is. It’s really all that politics is; it’s war without the blood.”

“That’s what politics is,” he continued. “It is war, and I believe that the sword has been given to men. The sword is—without being crude, I think this is a fact—it is a phallus. It is assigned by God to men.”

“War is something that is belonging to men and it’s not something that we employ in our ranks—

In one viral clip, Webbon explains that he needs to approve every book his wife reads

Webbon believes that wives should not have any knowledge that he does not yet have, because God forbids that wives teach their husbands anything.

fuck all maladjusted, malevolent, misogynistic mfkrs who derive their sense of "manhood" from their hated, derision, and FEAR of women, under the cloak of "religion."

I'd NOT be inclined to say "fuck all men" for dipshits like this, or for that matter "fuck all (insert whatever)" for the mass shooters, serial killers, slave traders, drug dealers, criminals and perpetrators that walk among us.

But hey. What do I know?

Christian Pastors who want to decide who can and cannot vote in the land of the free should not be given a tax exempt status.

And what is it with Christian Pastors and Phalli (is that the plural for phallus?). Haven’t Phalli cost Christian Churchs millions and millions over the years?

About how women are or aren’t designed for politics, voting, warfare or reading material. These women took an oath to protect and preserve our freedoms..even his. Our country is not his church. Time for his tax exemption to expire

Yes going to Sharia law and then the dark ages.

Then climate change and nukes will take us back to the Stone Age.

Then at some point the clock starts to move forward again.

Maybe scientists are correct.
Time is just an illusion.

The scabbard, the sheath that carries and protects the sword, the sheath that is always useful even when the sword is unused...
...that is assigned by God to the woman.
One can throw away the sword and still have a carry-it.

Without woman, man is a dull edge, unless he is a gay-blabe.
