In reply to the discussion: Jesuits call for repeal of 2nd Amendment [View all]stone space
(6,498 posts)61. I'm guessing that it is because the list comes from...
...a creepy right wing website.
I posted a video below from that webpage of the guy soliciting other pastors to put their churches on the list. (I hope I don't get hidden!...lol)
It's pretty creepy.
The guy even has a page devoted to him and his "Liberty Fellowship" organization on the SPLC website:
Chuck Baldwin
Date of Birth: 1953
Location: Kalispell, Mont.
Ideology: Patriot Movement

Chuck Baldwin, a 35-year Florida guns and God pastor and a leader in the antigovernment Patriot movement, moved his apocalyptic mission to Montana in 2010, forming a new church in a burgeoning center for antigovernment and white supremacist extremists. Baldwins arrival in the Flathead Valley, where his Liberty Fellowship is drawing an array of radical-right congregants, followed years of activity on the far right. He was the presidential candidate of the Constitution Party in 2008 and its vice-presidential candidate in 2004. In recent rants, hes raged against any form of gun control and warned darkly of an imminent and violent confrontation with government forces. The U.S. as we know it is going down, Baldwin insists, and patriotic citizens must lead the charge to save it.
In His Own Words
I believe homosexuality is moral perversion and deserves no special consideration under the law. I believe the South was right in the War Between the States, and I am not a racist.

The Muslim religion has been a bloody, murderous religion since its inception.
What Every Christian Should Know About Islam, Feb. 1, 2002
America is headed for an almost certain cataclysm. As Christians, we suspect that this cataclysm could include the judgment of God. As students of history, we believe that this cataclysm will most certainly include a fight between Big-Government globalists and freedom-loving, independent-minded patriots. I would even argue that this fight has already started.
Why We Are Moving to Montana, Sept. 15, 2010
To take away an Americans right to a semi-automatic rifle is to fully disarm him. There is no liberty without the semi-automatic rifle. We are not going to surrender our semi-automatic firearms, period.

Because if this was representative of their policy or doctrine, you could probably find something

It is interesting that you are still characterizing this as 'the jesuits'.

No it isn't. It's religious people with an opinion on a political issue.

Well, I've heard said 'God made man, Samuel Colt made them equal', but really, it's a americanism.

The list was just a grab from the Intertube, but then you knew that. They aren't my "data points".

Of course, because UU is just about as liberal as a christian denomination gets.
