‘Would Jesus Wear a Sidearm?’ WATCH one Evangelical pro-lifer who is FOR Gun Control!

Last updated on: October 30, 2015 at 8:13 am By Frank Schaeffer

Watch this remarkable 7 min documentary on an evangelical pro-life leader who is also FOR GUN CONTROL and that’s why he just left the GOP! Like most other conservative evangelical ministers, the Rev. Rob Schenck objects to same-sex marriage. He is also vehemently against abortion rights. But as this Op-Doc video shows, he is remarkable in that he takes his pro-life stance so far that he contests death by gun. The way he sees it, the gun violence plaguing our... Read more

“schools” ? = child-hating jails run by thug police

Last updated on: October 28, 2015 at 6:32 am By Frank Schaeffer

Here is more (new) video evidence from the front lines of our police state…. Choking and slamming a child to the floor for USING HER CELL PHONE !!! is what comes of turning schools from places run by educators who are trained to handle children into child-hating jails run by thug police. Sometimes America just plain sucks. As noted by the New York Times (oct 27, 15) The “zero tolerance” disciplinary rules that turned many public schools into police states beginning... Read more

Where Do These Loser Coward Cops Come From?

Last updated on: October 27, 2015 at 6:04 am By Frank Schaeffer

According to the Guardian a video of a South Carolina sheriff’s deputy manhandling a student in a high school classroom has added to simmering racial tensions among parents. The video shows a school monitor reported to be Ben Fields – who is also a Richland county sheriff’s deputy, confronting a black female student. When she refuses to leave her seat in a classroom at Spring Valley High, he tells her: “I’ll make you.” He wraps his arm around her neck, flips her... Read more

There Are No Heroes When Your Country Is On the Wrong Side of History– Here’s the (Hilarious) Video of a Group of Evangelicals Leaders Praying For Donald Trump That Proves It

Last updated on: October 14, 2015 at 10:38 am By Frank Schaeffer

Donald Trump prays with religious leaders, Kenneth Copeland, Paula White and others. I remember a group of evangelicals (Franklin Graham et al) laying hands on W Bush and holding him “up to the Lord for victory.” God answered prayer and so W destroyed the Middle East. Praise Jesus! Here’s the same crew blessing Trump (no kidding). The mind boggles! Watch! With W we only got tens of thousands dead. What will Trump and the evangelical leadership achieve together? For the...

Last updated on: October 3, 2015 at 8:08 am By Frank Schaeffer

Turns out the sheriff who responded to the Oregon shootings is a conspiracy nut who believes the government staged the Sandy Hook shootings so Obama could take away our guns. No kidding.
