SAN DIEGO─ Radio talk show host Bryan Fischer was fired from his job as issues analyst for the American Family Association this week. Fischer helped the AFA organize a free Israel junket for the Republican National Committee, but his controversial view that the United States is a Christian nation which does not protect the religious freedom of non-Christian “counterfeit religions” embarrassed the RNC.
Under the Freedom of Disinformation Act, I was able to obtain the original brochure for the RNC’s trip and have excerpted parts of it. I don’t know how the RNC missed the warning signs!
CRUSADE 2015
With “Onward Christian Soldiers” blaring on the PA system in the airlines, we plan not only to visit Israel, but to wrest control of it from those who betrayed our Messiah. Remember, Jesus was born there and was a Christian. All we’re asking for is the right of return.
Once the Holy Land is back in Christian hands, it will prove to Americans that they need to return to the true creed of the founding fathers and deny freedom of worship to blasphemers. At the Rapture, Thomas Jefferson will be resurrected and admit that it was merely a matter of typos that have led to the misunderstanding of his position on the role of the church in the state. This is what he really intended to write in 1802:
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and Christ, that we owe account to no other faith or worship, and that the legitimate powers of government confirm only Christian doctrines, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that the legislature should “make no law disrespecting an establishment of religion, or allowing the free exercise thereof,” thus building the fall of separation between Church & State.”
Since we reject the idea of evolution, damn those progressive Christians who have evolved on this issue. Join our tour and let’s party like its 1096!
