BLACK BISHOP BASHES DEMOCRATS AND CALLS BELIEVERS TO FLEE THE PARTY

Bishop E.W. Jackson is making a war cry: “Let God’s people go!”

Jackson, a Marine Corps veteran, graduate of Harvard Law School and adjunct professor of law, is echoing the words of Moses in a campaign to persuade Christians of all races that the time has come for a wholesale exodus of Christians from the Democrat Party.

The former candidate for U.S. Senate in Virginia points to what he calls the Democrat party’s “cult-like devotion” to abortion; the rejection of the traditional biblical model of family; the hostility hurled at those who express a Christian viewpoint such as Chick-fil-A president and Chief Operating Officer Dan Cathy; the actions of organizations such as the ACLU and the Foundation For Freedom From Religion in suing cities and towns for displaying crosses at memorials or mentioning the name Jesus in prayer at official events.

Beyond all of this, Jackson says, Democrat operatives are also attacking Gabrielle Douglas, the 16-year old black American who won the 2012 gold medal in gymnastics.

“The accomplished young lady had the nerve to give glory to God for her win,” Jackson says. “This apparently offended liberals.”

Case in point: Mary Elizabeth Williams, journalist for the progressive online magazine Salon.com, wrote, “I’ve often wondered what it is about Christians like Douglas that unnerves me so … Douglas and her ilk seem to espouse a faith based on what is commonly referred to as ‘The God of Parking Spaces.’”

Jackson, founder and president of STAND (Staying True to America’s National Destiny), responds: “Progressives are indeed ‘unnerved’ by devout Christians. That’s why they resort to ridicule, even of a 16-year-old Olympic medal winner. Williams says we worship ‘The God of Parking Spaces,’ but I would prefer Gabby’s God of grace and kindness to the leftist’s god of ridicule and persecution.

And he, like every religious sect who chooses to involve himself/themselves into politics, should lose their tax standing.

Not another biased christian based religious article from the OP, is it?
Shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

Black ministers were very disappointed when Obama came out for gay marriage. We all know that. Blacks are very Christian. Who do you think Rev. Martin Luther King was? It was the Christian churches where the blacks found their strength during the civil rights movement.

Another of the many intelligent Black politicians leaving the Dem party and explaining himself, in a very mature and distinguished way to be sure.

Here you go Janelle.

Welcome back to reality.

Blacks as a whole maybe backwards when it comes gay rights, but they aren't stupid enough to vote for a party that despises them.

I didn't know this, but I'm not suprised. The democrat party is full of religious bigots.
