Welcome to the McDonaldiz
ation of Christiani
ty and the "Faith and Freedom Happy Meal."
"Oh Come All Ye faithful" to Ralph Reed's "Synagogue of Satan" -- free at last to get fleeced by “prosperit
y gospel” preaching “pastors” with an exclusive franchise on faith, super-size
d bank accounts, private jets, publishing deals, TV and radio shows, and of course unparallel
ed political clout.
Like Big Tobacco Execs, these Religion CEOs have turned their advertisin
g susceptibl
e and star struck followers into loyal customers who consume their pastoral products -- especially the promise that they too will prosper – so long as they pledge to tithe at least 10% of their income to the "ministry" of treating taxation and regulation as mortal sins.
These Tea-vangel
ists daily turn "the faithful" into “Cafeteria Christians
” and "religious diabetics,
" who treat Jesus like a leper and “inconveni
ent truth” as they pig out on all you can eat “holier than thou meals,” picking and choosing whatever they please from the Old Testament menu, so long as it justifies their personal and political prejudices and private profiteeri
ng of their pastors.
I would say SHAME! But sociopaths are as "FREE" of such emotion as they are of conscience
.
