Alabama GOVERNOR -"Anyone who has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior is not my brother"
 

This is from the NEW Alabama governor. It's charming to see radical fundamentalists alive and well in the good ol US of A:thumbsup

yeah the bible belt lives.... (in the shadows of ignorance)....

i think the "bible belt" is alot bigger than people realize. its always the south that gets that reference but living in washington for several years i discovered there are plenty of hicks to go around. the spokane-idaho connection is pretty scary, alot of fundamentalists/neo nazis.

Politicians will say anything to get elected and re-elected to please the masses.

I see the still elect cretins down there ...

Does he walk on his knuckles?

Religion just causes so much problems.

What is really sad about that statement is that being a politician means you're to help and stand for the rights of everyone - not just those who you call "brother". Mixing politics with faith is dangerous since public office is suppose to be a balanced representation of everyone NOT just those who go to church.

Damn, I so wanted to be his brother....

crux of the biscuit:2 cents:

What an unchristian thing to say!

This is often stated among Christians and the only meaning it is is "brothers and sisters" in Christ. It does not have any sinister connotation to it.

if religion was eliminated the human condition would be solved and there would be peace on earth and universal enlightenment.

Nothing like the separation between Church and state.

I highly doubt it. Peopel will always find some way to stir some shit to try and get on top.

oh yeah, they're everywhere.

and been to spokane, weird place for sure.

But I don't know if they do this in other places for example. (I am in Louisiana) When we had to evacuate for a hurricane they put a Catholic Priest on the prime time NEWS, along with the reporters. They fucking pray, they talk to this guy like he knows what the hurricane is going to do ("God's decision"). And I mean it's on the local FOX news station.

And when I was holed up with a bunch of people waiting for this shit to pass so we could go home and voiced that as a non-religious person I was almost offended at seeing this I practically had shit flung at me. lol, they had no problem with it.

crazy the religion down here!

from my understanding, pre-religion fucking sucked.

i love the southern states but can't stand the hyper religiouness. i just don't get it. lower iqs? tradition? same can be said for the midwest and pretty much anywhere outside of major centers it seems.

Sounds about right to me.

so... how long till he is caught in a men's bathroom gobbling knob through a gloryhole?

I'm going with 16 months at the outside.

:thumbsup
the harder they thump (the bible) the quicker they give up the rump

what do muslims call nonbielevers of their faith? is it as bad as "not my brother or sister"?

what a douch

Funny that he made such a statement when he is just as corrupt as George Bush.

Probably a cross dresser that does cocaine and sucks bags of dicks

It seems we haven't much faithful christians on GFY... LoL :1orglaugh

It must suck to live in Alabama.

Obama is "a Christian by choice". And he explains the brothers and sisters thing.
His answer starts at about 1:30 It takes the woman that long to get her question asked.

"Synopsis:

America's 50-million strong Evangelical community is convinced that the world's future is foretold in Biblical prophecy - from the Rapture to the Battle of Armageddon."

You forgot education, which is by far the largest determining factor of religious zealotry.

I think we should just go to 49 states and let Alabama be its own country (3rd world). The only thing that state produces of note is (1) football players and (2) Bama cheerleaders.

It's a controversial issue. The people could have different religions. United States money says, "In God we Trust." The god is probably assumed to be Jesus Christ.

Jesus is lord!

Anyone who has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior is not my brother

Also, I am not his brother because we are not related

The End Is Near!


So hurry up and turn around and suck my cock before it's over.



:pimp

Hoe can he be in the government. The Federal law needs to step in.

Sure but at least they'd have a better excuse isntead of "My fake god is better than yours"

Well in Alabama your brother may also be your nephew or cousin or all 3.

Religion kills more people than just about anything else on this planet including disease and war.

lol what a homo

The governor apologized but, of course, he didn't really mean it. :disgust

That's what you say now, but if there's no "My fake god is better than yours" then you would have different standard to off-set it against. You might still think their reason at that time would be a bad excuse. :)

Totally scary..

Everyone is up in arms about that statement. I don't care - I'm glad I'm not his brother. Aren't you?
