A conservative activist who became infamous for claiming that Monster Energy drinks were the work of Satan warned C-SPAN host John McArdle this week that God would stop protecting America if same-sex marriage was legalized.
As the U.S. Supreme Court was preparing to hear arguments on marriage equality on Tuesday, McArdle interviewed protester Christine Weick, who was standing outside the courthouse holding a sign that used the Bible to condemn homosexuality.
“I’m here because I have a passion for God’s word,” she explained. “And I understand we have a situation here where God shows us in the Old Testament an example of nations that go against the word of God.”
“I love my God, and I love my country,” Weick continued. “And it concerns me that if this goes the wrong way, which is against the Bible, that his hand of protection will be leaving this country, and that scares me.”
For those who may have forgotten what first brought Weick to our attention, take a moment to bask in the lunacy.
And really who WOULDN'T take a woman who believes that Satan is making energy drinks and selling them in America seriously?
Too bad they didn't send Victoria Jackson to keep her company. Show time! :)
ReplyDeleteStuck in the Old Testament.
ReplyDeleteIf this loon really want to go "old testament" on us, shw should realize that her god of anger and revenge left America a very long while ago (premarital sex, divorce, etc...).
ReplyDeleteYou can't cherry pick the bits that fit with your narrow world view, sweetheart. It's a package deal. Are tou ready to stone the wifes of most of your candidates?
Now why would any "serious" newsman/woman ever interview this Weick individual who has no credentials to address this or any other issue facing the Supreme Court or any other court for that matter? Aren't there any people John McArdle could interview who would at least speak rationally? No wonder many of us "get our news" from Jon Stewart! He is far more intelligent than most of the news folk out there poking microphones in people's faces today.

Isn't their motto "Love it or Leave it"?
Honestly, these people act like children who are terrified their parents will abandon them if their siblings keep acting up.
I have read many times about people who think God is partial to America. I wonder why not the rest of his people?

There you go being reasonable again, Mildred!
DeleteTosh had her on his show. She said he was going to hell and that TOSH stood for Taking Others Straight to Hell.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering how she'll keep her pass to heaven by appearing on it. I suppose she'd claim she was trying to save all those poor wretched souls by exposing them to her message of salvation.
Thanks for mentioning Weick's interview on Tosh.O. It's (NSFW) hilarious (link below).
DeleteTosh included a clip of Weick forcing her way to the podium and grabbing the microphone from a Muslim during a ceremony in Texas to proclaim that Jesus is Lord and denouncing Islam.

These people and their cherry picking the old testament. Where do we start? How about whether she wore clothing made from two different fabrics today. You know what the old testament says to do about that right? Did she honor her mother and father today? Same punishment. Did she keep last sabbath holy? Same punishment. Sounds to me like she is already in hell.. of her own making.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see her stoned for eating a shrimp cocktail while wearing cotton/poly.
DeleteWhy isn't she fighting to make polygamy legal? I mean if we're supposed to follow the old testament.
DeleteIn other news today, the Pope is calling for women to receive equal pay. Maybe there still is hope for the world!

Considering some of what has been going on in this country as a result of rabid talibangelicals it might be a change for the better for God to leave this country.
ReplyDeleteAnd she is...gasp...a divorced woman. What does God think of that? Isn't a woman supposed to submit to her husband. He clearly did not agree with her BS. Her husband and children have disowned her. Can you blame them?
ReplyDeleteDoesn't it make you wonder what she lives on. She bragged in one interview about driving an SUV. We all know they are not cheap to drive, yet she shows up everywhere.
Your God's on line two, he says he made same sex people perfect, all the rest are easily brainwashed. Don't knock it till you try it, sweetie!!
