the churchy conservatives who apparently don't get the metaphors in the bible are really making the rounds... they use the scriptures to support their own ignorance...it's a badge of honor to them!
a guy named Jason Russell has been in the news lately...he's a Christian who founded a nonprofit called Invisible Children.... he made a short film called Kony 2012 about Uganda children being abused...but what's coming to light is the fake advocacy here..these Christian groups want money more than anything else..."Bloggers and other Internet users have done some investigative work, and revealed that Charity Navigator gave Invisible Children a two out of four stars rating in accountability because the group refuses to have its finances audited by a committee"

Jason was just arrested in San Diego for jerking off in public...personally, I don't see what the problems is....if we were really a free society, I'd be able to whip it out and share with pretty girls walking down the street ... unfortunately, there are legal consequences to such behavior...but guys ..you need to be discreet...BTW, the downtown parking garages now have cameras!
so this Russell guy is an Evangelical Christian, and in November 2011 he spoke publicly about his faith and its relation to his charity work in a speech at a Liberty University conference.
On March 15, 2012, Russell was detained by San Diego police and taken to a local hospital for allegedly vandalising cars and making sexual gestures after removing his underwear. According to a brief statement issued by Invisible Children, Russell was suffering from exhaustion, dehydration and malnutrition in the wake of the emotional toll of the media storm around Kony 2012.
ok that's as good an excuse as any...but Jason is friends with all sorts of Christian organizations..they helped him raise money...this is all about recruitment of young minds and it's pretty scary....we've seen what Reality church is up to...
what about Providence Hall, Kathy Ireland's church school? I'm looking into that... it seems the former assistant headmaster who also does this stuff, Director of Recruiting & Leadership Development, Free Methodist Church; Consultant for Non-Profits; Writer; Speaker..well, she helped raise funds for Invisible Children and in her blog, laments the Reality church pig sacrifice story: Closer to home, today I was made aware of a story in the local paper that came out yesterday as the lead story on the front page (really?!) about a local youth group that had some sort of male bonding weekend that included face paint and greased pigs and the slaughter of said pigs. I read it, and all in all, it did not paint the church in a good light - but I also understand that the media can skew things. Fortunately, the church came out with a rather humble statement that does a good job acknowledging how it could have been handled better. But I would say that some damage has been done...

now, I don't want to hear any phony outrage about the Ojai Reality pig sacrifice from Wendy P McCaw....she contributes money to the Center for Biological Diversity which encouraged the killing of thousands of Channel Island pigs in the name of "nativism"....however, I expect some faux outrage in the Sunday editorial.......
when I visited Wendy's cultish Reagan Ranch Center last year, I noticed Ron's little monkey Bonzo...am I seeing things or is this monkey jerkin' off, too??
right there in the display case...
is that normal or good for the Reagan Ranch Center? the Young Miss America Foundation? the Christians?? hey anyone know how I can get in touch with the Rev Sun Yung Moon??
