Southern Baptist Pastor Wiley Drake bashed Saddleback Church Pastor Rick Warren this week, saying “God will punish” Warren for agreeing to give the invocation at President-elect Barack Obama’s inauguration next month.
“I pray He is kind to you in this punishment that is coming,” Drake wrote in a widely-released e-mail. In it, the First Southern Baptist Church of Buena Park pastor criticizes Warren’s “recent plan to invoke the presence of almighty God on this evil illegal alien,” a reference to Obama.
I hope that God will be merciful to Wiley Drake when he’s scraping his boils with potsherds on a heap of offal for offending the Only Begotten One. Quitsies!!!

That’s Old Testament Me, Dan.
Since the whole “Incarnate” thing I did awhile back, I’ve decided to go primarily with irony as a means of illustrating that free will isn’t the same thing as a free pass.

“It’s an abomination before God and God’s going to deal with that,” Drake…
Wait until God finds out they are eating shrimp and wearing blended garments, boy is he gonna be pissed.

I would like to see some dueling preachers. Reminds me of a Dueling Faith Healers skit sometime back in the 80’s.

Yes, sears poncho.
Three phrases:
1) Wiley Drake
2) Jeremiah Wright
3) Steel cage

I could see Drake objecting on the grounds that Obama facilitated, and apparently condones, infanticide; not based on his words necessarily as much as his, ahem, record-what we have of it. Not to mention his attendance at TUCC, where the heretical Black Liberation theology is canon…
But the whole eeeeevil illegal alien! thing will give folks a pass to criticize him as an extremist, at the very least.
BTW Dan, could you explain the whole quitsies! thing for me; that’s one I’ve never heard yet…
Many Happy Returns to all the PW crew!

I miss Texe E Marrs. After 2000 didn’t bring the apocalypse down on us, he kinda went back into the woodwork.

Bob, it’s an infantile way of saying that you’re not allowed to do what I’ve just done (usually to you).

People can be idiots.
Idiots babbling on in “the name of God” are idiots.
Christians believe God loves them (all idiots) regardless of the nonsense they spout, even humans pretending to be a root crop

I think it’s liquid stuff what comes out of a noggin. Or something. Or maybe it’s a shortened version of Not-Grog?

SBP,
It’s a bottle full of beaten chicken fetuses. Drinking it is considered some kind of rite of passage, I believe.

oops, ‘pre-viable, harvested-before fertilization, beaten clumps-of-cells of a chicken’
Cheers!

Which explains the liberal doses of rum….
See, there are good liberals..
How about progressive liberal doses of rum…. even better
Comment by Swen Swenson on 12/25 @ 10:01 pm #
I suspect that a progressive dose of rum would be ‘none at all’. Wouldn’t want to offend the Madd F’in Mothers.
