Republican Jesus Steals Your Lunch Money

Having bilked all the available widows out of their Social Security checks, the Christopath movement declares, "what's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine too."

Pagans and atheists don't deserve to keep their money, don'tcha know.

To this end, C. Peter Wagner, the leader of the fundamentalist theocrats called the New Apostolic Reformation, has proclaimed that all your monies are belong to us:

I declare this to the principalities and powers who have been agents of Satan to obstruct this transfer of wealth: Your time is up! Your evil powers are broken! By the blood of Jesus Christ, I declare that your wicked powers are demolished!... God has declared through His prophets that the wealth of the wicked will be released to the Kingdom of God... I declare that this wealth will be distributed for the extension of the Kingdom of God by the apostles that God has set in the church, I decree that vast amounts of wealth will be released supernaturally, even from godless and pagan sources... The enemy's camp will be plundered... Resistance will be impossible. Jesus will put all things under His feet.

GOP VP candidate and Real American Sarah Palin has many ties to the New Apostolic Reformation movement. Imagine my surprise. Her witch hunting spiritual advisor, Bishop Thomas Muthee is a major figure in the movement.

Strangely, many other Fundamentalists don't like them either. The Assemblies of God kicked them out and declared them heretics in 1949.

This is the same wingnut "end times" cult of Christian warriors that was featured in the film Jesus Camp.



Yeah, those guys.

Personally, my money's on the Peruvian Pagans.
