Pop-up from the Pulpit, Or , Osama bin Laid
It could happen the next time you fly. It could happen the next
time you open a letter. It could happen the next time you're at
a ball game. It could even happen the next time you check your
email in-box. The threat of enemy attack is imminent. It's just
a good thing we have the Christian Coalition to assist us in our
fight against evil. Perhaps you didn't realize that the
family-friendly lobbying group was also such a strong ally on
Glorify Thy NameMoses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come ..... the homeland security front. As told in a 10/8 PR Week story, a
pop-up ad window appearing on the organization's website
recently read, "The tragic terrorist attacks are driving home a
very painful lesson for every American. We must make it our top
priority to safeguard our own cities and towns from an insidious
enemy."
The trouble is, the CC's idea of an enemy isn't necessarily what
you may expect. It's not terrorism, or Osama bin Laden, or any
of the villains of the day. It's pornography. Yes, as the site
user was soon to discover, the "insidious enemy" is "pictures of
naked people on the Web," according to the PR Week piece (Pop-up
porn rant poorly presented).
A visit to the group's anti-smut Web sanctuary by The Lowbrow
Lowdown Lackeys revealed that the pop-up copy no longer lures
site visitors through misleading text (also a common practice of
pornography pushers). Instead it reads, "Special Report: How
Pornography Is Attacking Our Families (Click for Details)."
The Precious CoinFIRST LOVE RECOVERY MINISTRIES The precious coin Rom.1:15(KJV) "For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it ..... Sure, at first glance, Pat Robertson and his flock seem to have
gone a bit overboard with the pop-up ad. But maybe, just maybe,
they're on to something. Perhaps there is a direct correlation
between the evils of pornography and the lascivious lifestyles
that foster Taliban-sanctioned terrorism. Think about it:
reporters say Osama and crew live in caves, but they're not
caves. They're pleasure dens. When the media claim that these al
Qaeda training camps are teaching troops to fire "stinger
missiles," don't be fooled. The term "stinger missile" is a
euphemism for the most potent, powerful weapon of all: the love
gun, people, the penis! As for those Afghani women who shroud
themselves from head-to-toe in burkas, do you know what they've
got under all that concealing clothing? Nothing -- that's right!
Those harlots are completely nude under there! And that supreme
leader, Mullah Mohammed Omar: that tale about him losing an eye
after being hit by Soviet shrapnel is a fallacy! We all know why
he really went blind. You guessed it: too much masturbation!
Christian Cannibals?Cannibalism - the very thought's disgusting and sends a shiver down our spines! But closet-cannibals are everywhere! You might be ..... So, maybe if the U.S. Government funnels fewer funds into
military operations and this so-called "homeland security" and
more money into the war against pornography, we can truly rid
the world of the evil-doers. Of course, posting the Ten
Commandments in the Supreme Court chambers wouldn't hurt either.
