Methodists Support Hamas

Posted on | July 6, 2010 | 17 Comments

British Methodists have decided that Israel is evil:

The Methodists boycott no other country.
The fact that an institution professing allegiance to values of love, truth and justice should have succumbed to an agenda of hatred, hypocrisy and barbarism is sadly emblematic of the degraded spirit of our times, and of the moral inversions which blow through them.
But who, these days, can really be surprised about such happenings in modern Europe? . . .

Read the rest. Pamela Geller: “The evil that drove Europe to rid the continent of its Jews is alive and well.”

    John Wesley is turning over in his grave. That, or weeping in shame in heaven, despite the eventual absence of tears there.

    I’ve yet to figure out what it is with Europe. Their affinity for psychotic political theories and xenophobia seem to know no logical bounds.

    That must be why Obama wants us to be more like them, I suppose. They’re a whole lot easier to distract with some “bait-and-switch” policies than the average American seems to be.

    Not that we’re not getting there, but at least there is something resembling resistance to the worst of in in these parts.

    I left the Methodist church long ago. I’m almost ashamed to admit that I was one once.

    John Wesley is turning in his grave. What a disgrace.

    Reminds me of the comment of the Rev. Maclean (Presbyterian) in A River Runs Through It of Methodists being Baptists who know how to read. But that would be unfair to Baptists.

    As a Baptist myself, I would never be so insensitive as to question the literacy of any Methodist.

    Things such as the current post, however, do make me seriously wonder about their reading comprehension level.
