    John Hagee: Idiot or Genius?

    Hagee & McCain

    Hagee & McCain

    The correct answer is idiotCharismatic apparently but then so was Hitler - didn’t make him right.

    John McCain actively sought John Hagee’s backing and says he’s “very honored” and “very proud” to have it.  Yesterday, a recording surfaced of Hagee “explaining” that God sent Hitler to perpetrate the Holocaust because Jews weren’t moving to Israel.

    Hagee has said: Hitler stated when he came to power: ‘I am not going to do anything that has not been done by the Roman Church for the last 800 years. I am only going to do it on a greater scale and more efficiently.’… God has said: ‘I gave you [the Jews] the time to repent and you did not.’

    I don’t know if I need to say any more.  The word idiot comes to mind first.

    Here are some other reasons he’s an idiot:

    Hagee supports an American-Israeli pre-emptive military strike on Iran.

    That’s clever for a “Christian” to call for violence.  Can you spell hypocrite?

    Christians don’t steal or lie, they don’t get divorced or have abortions. If the Ten Commandments were followed by everyone we would be able to fire half the police force and in six months the prisons would be all half empty.”

    Aren’t you missing a few commandments there?  How does that fit with a pre-emptive strike in Iran?  If you are soliciting other Christians to kill then you are the murderer not them.

    Hagee calls literature such as J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter contemporary witchcraft.

    And so what is it is, which it isn’t.  It’s called fiction - that means it’s made up John.

    Hagee believes in the “baptism of the Holy Spirit“, the “absolute authority of the scripture“, miraculous healing, anointing with oil, baptism by immersion, evangelism, and the “worship of the Lord through singing, clapping, and the lifting of hands“.

    Argh! Makes me want to rend my shirt!  I thought this was the year 2008 not 1008 and we had a better understanding of the world that didn’t include supernatural explanations and worship of gods.  Other than Odin I mean.

    “Most readers will be shocked by the clear record of history linking Adolf Hitler and the Roman Catholic Church in a conspiracy to exterminate the Jews.”

    Say what?  Where is that again?
