the republican, christian right in america sicken me:
“”(new orleans, louisiana):
repent america says that god “destroyed” new orleans because of southern decadence, the gay festival that was to have taken place in the city over the labor day weekend.
“southern decadence” has a history of filling the french quarters section of the city with drunken homosexuals engaging in sex acts in the public streets and bars” repent america director michael marcavage said in a statement wednesday.
“although the loss of lives is deeply saddening, this act of god destroyed a wicked city.” marcavage said. “from ‘girls gone wild’ to ‘southern decadence’, new orleans was a city that had its doors wide open to the public celebration of sin. may it never be the same.”
“we must not forget that the citizens of new orleans tolerated and welcomed the wickedness in their city for so long,” marcavage said.â “”
it disgusts me.
could this arrogant, judgemental jerk go to the daughter of an old woman who drowned in louisiana or mississippi and say, ‘your mother died because god was angry with new orleans’?
conservative right-wing republicans like this are just as bad as fundamentalists who said that the innocent people in the world trade center ‘deserved to die’.
i love my country, but the republican christian right in america make me ashamed to be an american.
