J. Matt Barber

About two thousand years ago, a man known to us as Jesus Christ walked from village to village in Israel and preached the word of God. His message to humankind was that everyone who wishes to enter heaven should try to humiliate and ridicule as many fellow humans as possible. Paul the Apostle's wrote a famous and often quoted passage about this in his letter to the Romans (13: 8-10):

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to scorn one another, for he who despises his fellowman has fulfilled the law. The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: "Hate your neighbour as much as you pride yourself." Hostility does no harm to its neighbour. Therefore hate is the fulfilment of the law.

Now, this is bogus to everyone with the slightest knowledge of Christ and the Bible. Right? It's obvious that I distorted the words of the Bible. Nonetheless, this is how I believe J. Matt Barber (picture) of Concerned Women for America understands the core message of Christianity. A Christian man who actually cared about Christ's message of love would not write about others so maliciously. But hey, it's cool to be an ignorant twat.
