Life Notes from the Prayer Warrior
Posted by Eli Sanders on Thu, Nov 19, 2009 at 1:43 PM
Thursday, 19 November 2009Dear Prayer Warrior,
This morning I spoke at the Microsoft stockholders meeting. Chris Liddell, CFO; Bill Gates, Chairman; Steve Ballmer, CEO; and Brad Smith, General Council were there. I talked about their Charitable Giving in support of gay marriage and the intolerance that the gay’s have shown to Christians and anyone that opposes them. Please pray for the stockholders that were there that they heard the message and will understand the truth.
Pastor Hutch

His prayers were answered: they understand very well that his message had nothing to do with truth.

Hey Hutch, how's that threat you made several years ago to bring down Microsoft for their support of teh gays? How's that going for ya? Yeah, just what I thought.

I love that "I spoke at the stockholders meeting" makes it sound like he gave a speech. When, really, he just asked a question during the Q&A and everyone there was probably like, when is the crazy nutjob going to sit down. We actually would like to hear something about the business now.

You know, when these so-called 'Christian' haters shuffle off this mortal coil and wake up to find themselves on the other side in the presence of Jesus, he is gonna be sooooooooo pissed at them.
Myself, I sure wouldn't want to face an angry, angry Jesus. Just sayin'.

3: Come on. (By which I mean "shut up.") Also, you know that making jokes about cancer is the number one cause of cancer, don't you?
8
I couldn't care less about Hutch, but I do feel sorry for his kids. You thought you had a rough childhood? Can you imagine having that whackjob for a father?
9
"Intolerance"? Is that what the followers of mythology call "addressing lies" and "defending your rights" and "reacting to brutal attacks"?
Sounds like Pastor Hutch needs to brush up on the definition of "bearing false witness."

LC will be on in any second praising Hutch and saying that we can't handle the truth and blah blah blah...

To the best of my knowledge, this kind of stuff isn't happening to gay rights opponents:

Hey, Hutch. Get back to us when we start hearing about the "Christian panic" defense.

Merry @6: You've got that right. Jesus said:
Luke 16:19-31.
There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried. In hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, "Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire." But Abraham replied, "Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us." He answered, "Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my father's house, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment." Abraham replied, "They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them." "No, father Abraham," he said, "but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent." He said to him, "If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead."
Luke 16:19-31.

@6 - I assume you meant that when they finally shuffle off from life, they simply cease to be, yes?
anyways, ooooh! those damn intolerant gays, pissed at anyone who tries to fuck them over! how dare they be so intolerant?
s,d.

It makes me cranky and sad to know that Hutch and others like him exist in this world and have a very real influence on people around them. I wish I could make them see how very, very wrong they are.

Let's try a little game: "I talked about their Charitable Giving in support of desegregation under the 14th amendment and the intolerance that the blacks have shown to the KKK and anyone that opposes them."
If the shoe fits.
And another thing--I don't think the Christian right really understands the word "intolerance". They seem to believe that toleration is not accepting people/behaviors you personally don't like but that society as a whole must adhere to their narrow moral code or they are "intolerant". Jeeze, crack a fucking dictionary.

The gay's WHAT??? Their partners? Their dogs? Maybe their parents. Parents are always intolerant.
19
Or even better is Matthew 25:44-46
"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'
"He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
"Then they will go away to eternal punishment."
Yep, going to hell they are.

This, "gays are intolerant of our disgust for them," thing is really getting old.
It's not your OPINION of them they really hate, Hutch.
