Evangelical Christian and Morality Decay in This Election

November 3, 2004

Someone on the news radio and evangelical Christian TV program are pounding about Human's obligations on moralities. People love to tell other people what to do without reflecting what they are doing.

They stand tall and proud because they are self-proclaimed that they are representatives of the Godly father. Their weapons are Bible, words of God and monopoly of reaching heaven after life.
Sadly, narrow minded, self-deceived and manipulating other people's faith have brought down their moralities.

Just take this recent election as an example.

Those moral people, who both reside in the God's houses and their own moral coated houses, proclaim themselves Pro-Life, Pro-God and Pro-Value.

They are anti abortions. They believe every child of God should have a chance to see this retarded world. Some, even, believe that birth control is a sin. They love to reach their breeding capacity and let their kids struggle on this limited resource world.

Next, they believe God has created just men and women, so a group of creature called GAY is excluded from the Bible, the society and the heaven kingdom. They forget the fact that it is the Omnipresence who created this group of creature and dumped them in the abyss of the society. These moralists never admit the fact that there are too many priests and pastors who love to get blown by small innocent kids in their own churches.

Those two moral issues are the flagship of those evangelical Christians. Unfortunately, the definition of the morality of those people does not go far enough to include those poor people and innocent people who had died and will die in the war.

Have those moralists ever protested the war in Iraq? If they have, have they ever asked their herds of sheep not to vote someone who has brought death to their Almighty’s children? Have any of them ever thought about thousands and thousands of innocent people life including American soldiers, Iraqis and all hostages who have been perished in this unjust war? Have they ever questioned this president the moral issue of Iraq war? They all keep barking that if the war never happened, there would be thousands of Iraqis killed anyway. Does that give them moral reasons to go to the war that we do not even see the horizon and kill some more people?

Have they ever asked their followers to turn down the government that always takes side to the corporate America, dumps a lot more people in poverty and channels all fortune to the rich? There are millions of people in this country who will have no food on the table because the wealth is concentrating on the super rich people and corporations. The people will get sicker because of the pollution from this administration’s friends in mining and oil industries.

They do not care if you are poorer or dying, as long as, they can hold the bible very tight in their arms and robotically cite and distort what God really means about human's welfare to serve their own agenda and ego.

Do they forget that Jesus himself stood side by side with the poor and taught mankind to tolerate and stand up for injustice?
