If you think Pastor Robert Jeffress of the First Baptist Church of Dallas made a royal ass out of himself when he recently claimed that Islam promotes pedophilia, well, that’s just the latest salvo in a looong history of idiotic public statements and actions. And we’ve still got that hideous giant glowing cross Jeffress wants to build in downtown Dallas to look forward to.
On her blog Translinguistic Other, Seattle musician and visual artist Emily Pothast offers a hilarious and surprisingly well-reasoned argument on why she believes Pastor Jeffress actually worships Satan. Seriously, take the time to read this piece. It’s pure brilliance.
You should be ashamed of yourself to call a man of God a satan worshipper. You know just because you hear something you don’t want to hear don’t take it out on others. The truth hurts sometimes. Pastor Jeffress is one of the few men who is honest and speaking from the Word, the Bible. God is proud to have prophets like Pastor Jeffress, if only we could all be like him. God Bless You Robert
Hey, JesusFirst: Just because you read something you don’t want to read, don’t take it out on others by telling them they should be ashamed. Also, don’t pretend to know what God is proud of. Jeffress is nothing but a slightly watered-down Fred Phelps with a lust for gold.
JesusFirst sounds brainwashed like a cult member.
Thanks for distributing the piece. Don’t know if it will do a bit of good, but at least it got an airing locally.
Nutjobs like Jefress are always from Texas; why is that?
Wow, I really hope that people don’t think that all Christians are like that. I’m a Christian and I’m definantly not. I have also read the Bible and never came across the passage that states islamists are pedofiles. This kind of stuff is what is killing credibility for all Christianity and it totally makes me sad.
Jeffress is typical of Texas Christianity. Bigot, bumpkin, and blowhard. Perfect fit for his job.
