Hate groups make fools out of themselves at press conference

Video footage is coming in of that recent disastrous press conference held by “Porno” Pete LaBarbera and his crew of assorted nuts against the Southern Poverty Law Center. The press conference was held to protest SPLC calling so-called pro-family groups out for their deliberate inaccurate rhetoric about the gay community.

And it was just as everyone suspected – it was a colossal bomb. But the most interesting portion is the following. Rochelle Conner, a representative of Scott Lively’s Abiding Truth Ministries (an SPLC designated hate group), read a statement from Lively calling for “God himself to destroy” the SPLC:

Transcript – My prayer as one who really does hate irrational prejudice is that the Lord by His sovereign power will remove this dangerous, hate-spreading organization from our nation and its leaders and its members cause them to repent of their wickedness. Finally, to prevent the Southern Poverty Law Center from using my prayer as part of its perpetual fundraising campaign, I want to make clear that I am asking God himself to destroy their organization and I am asking that it be by His miraculous hand and not by human beings just so as with Sodom and Gomorrah, they will know that God will get the glory, and not man.

By the way, you will notice that standing next to LaBarbera – who is the only white male in the small group for those who have never seen him – is “diaper pastor” Patrick Wooden. I heard that they were filming their own press conference, so of course Wooden just had to position himself to be at the forefront of the camera.

My guess – and forgive if I am being sacrilegious here – is that the only reason why God didn’t strike these folks down for their lies is because he was laughing so hard.

1. He didn't strike those fools, or the SPLC, down because he isn't....

...

2. Your guess was spot on.

3. God "could not care less" about this type of nonsense.

Simply not on his radar.

These are small crusty insects feeding on each other in the slime of the universe - just as it was all designed to be.

God is off creating new expansive galaxy encompassing imagery to use in the opening footage for the next start trek movies and series.

4. Did she fall asleep during the class for persuasive rhetoric??

WHAT ARE THEY THINKING??

As a proud supporter of the SPLC I have to ask the question.. What are you doing that is better?

The conservatives opposed inter racial marriage when our President was born. Now they disavow it. What did they do to apologize for it... send a box of chocolates to inter racial couples.

No they did nothing to apologize for it.

BTW how many cloths is that woman wearing? God may be unhappy with you.

If she had a gay friend, they would tell you that hat just does not work with what you are wearing.

"May the Holy Lord strike you down for wearing a bad hat!!" Makes as much sense as what she said.
