I can't believe that the position of Top Douchebag has been so quickly usurped from Mark Williams, formerly of Tea Party Express. I believed at the time that Williams might well have bagged Douche of the Year.
But that was before I became acquainted with Pastor Scott Lively, president of "Defend the Family" and co-author of The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the Nazi Party. On July 28, 2010, he appeared in a segment of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
Pastor Lively told Jason Jones, "Open homosexuals are distinct from everybody else, men and women, in being exceptionally brutal and savage....Adolf Hitler used homosexual soldiers because they were more savage than natural men," adding, "they didn't have the restraint a normal man has. It was easier for them to do some of the terrible things that the Nazis did."
Researching Pastor Lively, I discovered more interesting nuggets about Hitler and his cronies. The initial meeting of what would become the Nazi Party took place in a gay bar. Each young Brownshirt was matched up with a homosexual male adult to initiate him into the league of gay Aryan supermen.
How to explain the extermination of gays by the Third Reich? Pastor Lively has a simple answer. "The Nazis did persecute homosexuals to distract public attention away from their homosexuality."
To be honest, I was shocked at the number of sites recommending The Pink Swastika as well-supported historical fact being suppressed by gay activists and even by the National Holocaust Museum. The book is now in its fourth edition due to nice Christian groups all over the Internet plugging it almost as hard as they peddle the Almighty.
Then it started to make me ill. WWJB, people? What would Jesus blog? I'm pretty sure he wouldn't take to the Web in support of a book that advocates murdering homosexuals. I'm not talking about the Nazis this time: I'm referring to Pastor Lively's book, sermons and life's work. So I'd like to let Jones take over and make light of this bizarre yet influential man.
Lively lets us know he wishes this cup could be taken from him. "It's not easy to be a person who tells the truth when a large part of the population doesn't want to hear it. Frankly, I wish I'd gotten a different assignment....I woulda loved to just been hanging out on the beach someplace. But instead I got stuck with dealing with homosexual Nazis."
Pastor, you seem to me every bit as brutal and savage as the fantasy you promote as truth. Far be it from me to suggest that you tell this story to the next guy you see with a swastika tattoo. I'm sure he'd enjoy acquainting you with your feminine side.
But that wouldn't be very Christian of me, would it? Not that I'm Christian; I'm not. I just have a conscience. Since you most likely believe in an afterlife, though, allow me to paint you a picture. Fire. Brimstone. You, sucking Satan's balls for all eternity. Bon appetit!
