Stupid, Scary and Ignorant quotes

.: posted 11/04/2003 ::: by webmdave :::

AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that *tolerates* homosexuals."

--Jerry Falwell, 1993

"The right of holding slaves is clearly established in the Holy Scriptures, both by precept and example."

--R. Furman, Baptist, of South Carolina

"The doctrine that the earth is neither the center of the universe nor immovable, but moves even with a daily rotation, is absurd, and both philosophically and theologically false, and at the least an error of faith."

--Catholic Church's decision against Galileo Galilei

The Earth is degenerating these days. Bribery and corruption abound. Children no longer mind their parents, every man wants to write a book, and it is evident that the end of the world is fast approaching.

- Assyrian Stone Tablet, c.2800BC

God gave the savior to the German people. We have faith, deep and unshakeable faith, that he [Hitler] was sent to us by God to save Germany."

--Hermann Goering, from Louis L. Snyder, "Hitler's Elite, Shocking Profiles of the Reich's Most Notorious Henchmen", Berkley Books, 1990

"It is a just retribution for improper sexual misconduct"

[Planned Parenthood] is teaching kids to fornicate, teaching people to have adultery, every kind of bestiality, homosexuality, lesbianism -- everything that the Bible condemns.

-- Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, April 9, 1991

The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism, and become lesbians.

-- Pat Robertson, fundraising letter, 1992

Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history.

-- Pat Robertson, interview with Molly Ivins, 1993.

Better a pink bottom than a black soul.

-- Rev. Lester Roloff, defending his punitive child-control techniques. Roloff was jailed in 1973 and again in 1975 for child abuse.

"No, I don't know that atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God."

Our culture is superior. Our culture is superior because our religion is Christianity and that is the truth that makes men free.

--James Watt, Secretary of the Interior during the Regan years.

"When you know the LORD you have no need for masturbation."

--Brice Wellington

"Nobody has the right to worship on this planet any other God than Jehovah. And therefore the state does not have the responsibility to defend anybody's pseudo-right to worship an idol."

--Rev. Joseph Morecraft, Chalcedon Presbyterian Church, "Biblical Role of Civil Government" speech given 8/31/93 at Biblical Worldview and Christian Education Conference

"When the Christian majority takes over this country, there will be no satanic churches, no more free distribution of pornography, no more talk of rights for homosexuals. After the Christian majority takes control, pluralism will be seen as immoral and evil and the state will not permit anybody the right to practice evil."

--Gary Potter, president of Catholics for Christian Political Action

"We're going to bring back God and the Bible and drive the gods of secular humanism right out of the public schools of America."

--Presidential candidate Pat Buchanan addressing the anti-gay rally in Des Moines, 2-11-96

''We are completely void of anything to do with God. Teachers can't touch a child - even to hug a crying child. Young boys are on Ritalin and a lot of the problem is because we have a female-dominated educational system which tries to make little boys act like little girls.''

--William "Bill" Murray, addressing the "God and Country II" rally, speaking about the need for prayer & Bible recitations in school

"The public school system is damned. Let me tell you how radical I am. Christian students should be in Christian schools. If you have to sell your car, live in a smaller house, or work a night job, put your child in Christian schools. If you can't afford it, homeschool."

--Jerry Falwell, "Trends in Christian Higher Education," Regent University, 9/22/93

Rail as they will about 'discrimination,' women are simply not endowed by nature with the same measures of single-minded ambition and the will to succeed in the fiercely competitive world of Western capitalism."

--Pat Buchanan (11/22/83)

--Phyllis Schlafly, founder and leader of the Eagle Forum

"When the temptation to masturbate is strong, yell "Stop!" to those thoughts as loudly as you can in your mind. Then recite a portion of the Bible or sing a hymn."

--Mormon Guide to Self-Control

"I know one man who was impotent who gave AIDS to his wife and the only thing they did was kiss."

[Pat Robertson]

"Many of those people involved in Adolf Hitler were Satanists, many were homosexuals -- the two things seem to go together"

[Pat Robertson, ADL report on Religious Right, page 131]

There will never be world peace until God's house and God's people are given their rightful place of leadership at the top of the world. How can there be peace when drunkards, drug dealers, communist, atheists, New age worshipers of Satan, secular humanists, oppressive dictators, greedy money changers, revolutionary assassins, adulterers and homosexuals are on top."

[Pat Robertson]

"Sex education classes in our public schools are promoting incest."

[Jimmy Swaggart]

"The only way we can determine the true age of the earth is for God to tell us what it is. And since He has told us, very plainly, in the Holy Scriptures that it is several thousand years in age, and no more, that ought to settle all basic questions of terrestrial chronology."

[Henry Morris, ICR President, 1974]

"...this monkey mythology of Darwin is the cause of permissiveness, promiscuity, prophylactics, perversions, pregnancies, abortions, pornotherapy, pollution, poisoning and proliferation of crimes of all types."

I'd like to say that I'm suprised by these quotes. But the fact is that I have heard some of the same stuff from people that I interact with, and I can understand some of the hatred that causese this ignorance.

The one quote about AIDS being caused from a person's sexual conduct is true.Casual sex,whether it's strait or homosexual sex,is the way that the virus usually spreads.Why argue with facts?In the early years of aids,some innocent victims did accidently get infected from blood transfusions,ect, but nowdays,it's people's immorality that causes the spread of this virus.shay706

Shay, I don't think a mistake should go hand in hand with "a just retribution for improper sexual misconduct". You think people deserve to die because of one mistake...mate you've got issues of the wrong kind. Do you think AIDS awareness in african nations is good enough for these people to realise what they are doing? Its the very fact that she (MT) is saying they deserve it which is the issue.

I would like to point out that these comments and quotations are from PEOPLE. I don't think any Christian would argue that people who call themselves Christians are perfect. People have terrible ideas sometimes (as expressed by the quotations above). And unfortunately they mis-represent an entire belief system. I ask that people keep an open mind. There are a lot of wonderful Christian quotations as well as some more negative ones. I am not saying that the quotations above are not valid, just that it is important not to only look at negative points of a religion- caused by people.

Anonymous,

All quotes are from people. People are the only ones who talk. Invisible deities and their invisible minions never talk -- people claim to talk for them.

Hatred is the Christian way and it always will be. Although it claims to "love thy neighbor", they often claim the Old Testament when they want to hurt someone and the New when they want forgiveness. Even Jesus said he didn't care if you listened to his words or not, but then later said that he didn't bring peace, but the sword and would turn father against son and mother against daughter. Prince of Peace my ass.
