  • Since the cult leader was heading to Peru to buy a peyote like substance I think it’s safe to say this was a syncretistic religion that blended elements of Christianity with some other traditions – like Palo Moyombe or something similar where you’ll find more propensity for sacrifice. The cult was made up of 13 members and contained professionals which seems similar to the cult at Matamoros.

    Point is using a coven like this to make a point about Christians is like using American Christians to make a point about pre-Christian Europe. Sure there’s some shared cosmology but it’s not the same at all. For example many reports claim that prior to the sacrifice the cult “called the spirits” which in Latin American traditions is something you find that is common in African diaspora religions. Learn about religions before making your false equivalencies about the “poor oppressed Muslims” who you’re defending.

    By the way not a Christian myself but I’m an extremist – for accuracy.

  • He should have been fired as soon as he said “ten hundred”

    If I had a son who used the term “ten hundred” in public I’d horse whip him.

  • Glenn is right here. Insulting the memory of a guy helping a friend before he’s even buried is classless nonsense. You people defending Glenn’s comments should leave your full names so we can all make similar comments to your families when you die.

  • Maybe off topic from your “point” but you can indeed have Christian Witchcraft – or at least types of Witchcraft practiced by Christians. Museums are filled with grimiores from the middle ages and alter that show that “witches” were engaged in rituals that were overtly Christian in theology though they were of course heretical. Here in America the Pennsylvania Dutch and other small communities passed around books which were collections of spells and charms (usually to defeat witchcraft) that exist to this day and are mostly Christian prayers or permutations of them. John Hoffman’s Long Lost Friend is the most famous of these. The point being that Christianity is a vast tradition that is 2,000 years old so your interpretation of its theology is not objective fact. I know lots of Christians who like rock music and at least one who converted because of the song Spirit in the Sky. Who are you to hassle these people over their preferences?

  • As a conservative I say … I don’t care. As long as I don’t have to pay for it it’s his life. Leave telling people how to live their lives to the ******* demcong insurgents we’ve got in the White House

  • How do you starve in NYC two days after a bad storm when there is still power and stores open 20 blocks from where you live?

  • That woman just cheated death. In almost every incident where a bear actual predates humans a black bear is the culprit. What is wrong with people these days? If that bear wasn’t timid she’d be dead.

  • How is claiming a woman can’t get pregnant through rape a “slip of the tongue” – isn’t it just accepting the pro-abortion theory that a child born of rape is somehow tainted by it’s father’s criminality?

  • I agree with Rove (and he was joking, come one) Akin is disgusting. His theory was liberal hug-a-thug nonsense that would mean Jaycee Dugard wasn’t a victim, he knows he’ll cost Republicans that seat and frankly being pro-life is about more than saying you’re against abortion.

    I’m pro-life because the pro-”choice” culture is destroying children – their message of children ruining lives and being burdens leads to resentful parents and neglected children. It leads to PP covering up child rape, it leads to people trading child porn, it leads to mothers using their children as sexual bargaining chips with men. It does this by devaluing women, children, sex and parenting.

    Akin’s comments do the same thing. They imply that the child is “tainted’ by the criminality of the father thus is unworthy to live. Do you believe that? I don’t. The answer to people with the rape exemption question is that we don’t punish children for their parents sins. Akin believes nature does. That’s not pro-life or conservative.

  • In my day we called this partying too hard. Now it’s a whole sexual identity. Asinine.

    No offense to to fellow Blaze readers but White people will bend over backward to be seen as some kind of minority nowadays.
