Allen's list topped by gay Bishop

So much for all that "Judge not..." nonsense.

friday 5/26/2007

Allen viciously denounces an openly gay minister on the grounds that the Bible condemns homosexuality. Allen says Anglican Bishop Gene Robinson is "prideful" and "arrogant", and then lamely attempts to call him a racist.

Since when has the Bible ever mattered to people in the ministry (or Christians in general)? Paul says very clearly in 1 Timothy:

3:2 A bishop then must be...3:4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;3:5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)


In all my years as a faithful Baptist I never heard of one minister asked to resign because his children were unruly, even though the Scriptures are very clear on this. Maybe that's because if they actually did obey these inconvenient verses there would be NO MINISTERS LEFT.
Allen claims that his charges against Bishop Robinson are simply based on the teachings of the Bible. Nowhere in my Scofield Bible does it say that a minister must not be a sausage smoker.
I say that until he vehemently denounces a fellow minister for bad parenting, Allen Hunt is a hypocrite.

I think ultimately it will be better for the church to embrace openly gay ministers (figuratively speaking, that is); everyone knows most Catholic priests are secretly gay and look at all the problems that's caused.

A stinking fresh batch of AHS reviews

Saturday 5/19: "Falwell"

Allen spent his second full-effect Saturday show making excuses for a fat, racist ignorance-merchant named Jerry Falwell, who recently was called home to be with the Lord (Beel-zebub). Allen said he initially had not liked Falwell but had since changed his mind. He repeated several times that he liked Falwell because "he was an effective leader."
--Note to AHS- so was Pol Pot.

Sunday 5/20: "It's in my genes"

A study came out recently showing that men who are away from home on a regular basis will almost always seek sex outside of marriage, as this behavior is hard-wired in our genes. Allen predictably disagrees with this and profers Jesus-thinking as a viable substitute for sex. Lots of losers called in with their heartbreaking stories of marriages destroyed by infidelity. Of course Allen doesn't defend the Biblical view of marriage, but opts instead for a childish middle class women's fantasy of marriage.
Why does Allen think that we men want to screw EVERY thing we see ALL THE TIME? It wouldn't be that that's how we EVOLVED, would it? That it represents the best mating strategy for early H. Sapiens, that's just coincidence, as far as Allen is concerned.


Friday 5/25: "Youth of Islam"

Allen pinch hitting for the absolutely abysmal and talentless Chris Krok. Based on a new study by the Pew Center, Allen criticizes American muslims for being too religious, ie actually believing the nonsense that is in the Koran regarding martyrdom (a small minority said that suicide bombings were "sometimes" justified). Then he really lets them have it for not being religious enough(!), since many of the study's respondents identified themselves as Americans first and Muslims second.
Allen is wrong on both counts here:
1) I think people of many religions view self-sacrifice as a viable option when faced with an overwhelming enemy. (I'm NOT MAKING EXCUSES FOR THIS STUFF- I'm just telling you what the psychology of it is).
2) Would that all Americans were Americans first and Muslim-Christian-Buddhist-Hindu-Bukkakist-Sufi-Whatever second. It would be a better country I promise.

Extra Credit: Allen reiterated his plan for dealing with Islam, which included banning Muslim immigration for "two generations"--(yes, dear readers, he actually said that, as if he were Yahweh laying down a curse on the Canaanites.) Some other potential Allen-hater named Erik called the show to ask the question I had previously brought up on this blog: How do we ban a particular religion from entering the country? Instead of answering, Allen told the caller he was out of time and hung up on him.
TCB. Typical Cracker Behaviour.

Decide for yourself who is more mentally unstable- Allen or his callers.

Evil Personified

Tonight I stood outside in the cool of the evening just sort of staring up at the heavens. Venus is beautiful tonight. Bold and bright- far brighter than even the brightest star- she really does dominate the night sky. It's not hard to understand how ancient people viewed her as a demi-god whose hubris compelled him to rule the night sky, only to be banished by the sun as an usurper to the throne of heaven. This was the lore of the Babylonians. Assimilated by the Hebrews Venus became Lucifer ("light-bearer") the proud angel cast down by Yahweh for his heavenly pretensions. It was an old old story, even then.

Breaking News

O Death, where is thy sting?

AHS Review: Moms = good. Imams = bad.

The Allen Hunt Show is now occupying TWO otherwise perfectly good time slots on WSB AM 750, so I will be reviewing both episodes here from now on.
Saturday night: No love for our Muslim brothers and sisters.
On Saturday Allen took the opportunity to let us know that Islam may not be a religion of peace. And furthermore it is possible that some Muslim extremists plan to do us harm. Thank goodness we have Allen to point these things out for us. Otherwise who woulda figured, right? A couple of earnest Muslims called to state that contrary to everything we have ever seen so far in every corner of the known universe Islam is certainly a religion of peace. And how do we know this? Well, because they say so, that's how. I'm afraid I gotta side with Allen on this one.
Allen also gave us his 5-fold plan for dealing with Muslim extremism. This includes 1) Deporting all faaaaahrners (ie illegals) and 2) No more Muslim immigration for "two generations" (silly Biblical overtones Allen's).

Hey there, y'all cain't come in here, y'alls Muslims.
No sir we are Catholic.
Catholic, eh? Ok you can get in line.
I meant we are fundamentalist Christian.
Well why didn't you say so. Come right in, you go to the front of the line.

You see my point, right? Not really the most practical plan.

FACT CHECK: Allen says the Koran is more violent/less loving than the Bible.


FALSE

The Koran has a higher ratio of negative/violent verses than does the Bible. However it also has more "good" or positive instructions than the Bible does. In actuality this is a bit deceptive, as the Bible's violent/intolerant verses are far more vehement than that of the Koran, while at the same time the good or positive verses of the Bible are more loving, more gooder if you will, than those of the Koran.

Sunday Night: Mother's Day
Who wants to hate on moms (except maybe Freud, Christina Crawford, and my therapist)?

For some unfathomable reason Allen also devoted a block of time to discussing Hank Aaron and a person named Barry Bonds. I really hate these stupid sporting non-controversies. You can pretty much tell when a person's life is empty and devoid of any and all meaning- they always want to talk to you about sports.

Bonus Moment: Allen made the statement on Sunday night that Paris Hilton's mom should be (Worst) Mom of the Year. A caller said he would disagree, nominating Patsy Ramsey instead. (ok,not exactly an up to date caller, but stay with me). Allen disagreed with the caller since, in his opinion, "the Ramseys obviously had absolutely nothing to do with Jon-Benet's death."
The Allen Hunt Show Sucks now rests it case, your honor.

inFrequently Asked Questions

Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'd like to spend my first real post answering a few questions that everyone (ok, no one) has been asking me. Also I want to say that I hate the word 'blog'. It's a very unappealing word, you have to admit. Sounds like a combination of blahhh and bog or log. It sounds like a euphemism for a turd. Probably a relevant analogy since the internet itself is a giant sewer.

1) Do you hate Allen Hunt?

No.

2) Why do you hate Allen Hunt so much?

Seriously, I don't hate Allen: Love the sinner, hate the sin.

3) Other than hating Allen, why are you doing this?

I find it appalling that WSB AM750, the greatest radio station in the Southeast, and an island of rational thought (eg Boortz), would provide such a prominent forum for fairytales and nonsense. This makes me sad and angry and I feel it's my solemn duty to provide an opposing viewpoint.

4) What's so wrong with a faith-based radio program? Don't people need more spiritual/moral guidance in their lives?

9/11 was a faith-based initiative. What we need is more education, more reason, more tolerance, and more love.

5) But why Allen? Why don't you pick on Benny Hinn?

Because Benny Hinn know he's full of shit. Allen actually believes in what he says. Plus, given he holds a PhD from Yale, Allen should know better.

6) How did you become so bitter about religion?

I read the Bible.

7) Anything else?

Read your bible daily. And look for the podcasts coming soon.

Love in Christ
