Moore allegations prompt reflections on fundamentalist culture in which some Christian men date teen

People bitch about American education. It isn't that bad. In particular - our higher education rates very well. We have a lot of international students who come to the US for higher education.

In the rankings - many US institutions are at the top: World University Rankings

And that proves what, exactly?

Yes international students come to the US for education. It's the best way to get a pass into our country if you're a communist or a jihadist.

Going beyond that, which is an opinon - we rank VERY high around the world in higher education.

So what? What is your point? That if jihadists and communists rank a school as *excellent* it must be fantastic?

You remain an idiot.

The only idiotic thing is your statement above.
 
Using scripture as an aegis to defend reprehensible behavior. Where have we seen this before? Oh! Right! Discriminating against paying customers! And now the pursuit of teenage girls.

Fundamentalism! A morality as flexible as it gets!

It's like Islamic fundamentalism. Patriarchal religions taken to the extreme to justify older men marrying and abusing young girls.
Exactly: Christian fundamentalism.

This also exhibits the hypocrisy of the social right and its hostility toward Islam and Muslims.

Fundie christianity isn't really that much different than fundie Islam.

Agree in theory. Fortunately Fundie Christians are a much smaller proportion of the US Christian population. Those who defend Moore's actions as "biblical" for example.

But they want to be a larger force....thus we see the support of a child molester in Alabama because he suckers the fundies by putting up a 10 Commandments monument. Big whoop!

These people tend to have an outsized voice in proportion to their numbers...and an outsized political power too :(
 
“A woman's role is to be a wife, a homemaker and someone who births children.”

This is further confirmation of the fact that evangelicalism and homeschool culture is in essence misogynistic and promotes a reactionary third world paradigm hostile to the rights and protected liberties of women.
The amount of self-hate that must exist for women to go along with this is staggering.

Feminism is about giving women the freedom to choose - the same freedom traditionally granted to men for eons. So...that means if a woman chooses to be a wife and homemaker, that is her free choice and deserves as much respect as that of a woman who chooses to be an engineer. So I don't think it's self-hate.

But some of those groups are very cultish...woman don't have a choice, and they are socially isolated and married off very young.

They want to compel conformity and punish dissent, diversity, and expressions of individual liberty.

They have nothing but contempt for the Framers’ mandate that church and state remain separate, and replace the Constitution with their bible.

Christian fundamentalism and the social right are the bane of the American Nation.

Nonsense. It happens in a couple of tiny little cults and that is it.

Define fundamentalism. I bet you can't. Also give me some examples of fundamentalist churches and the widespread nature of Christian "religions tke to the extreme to justify older men marrying and abusing young girls".

You refuse to protect young girls from the state and Islam..but you'll pretend that Christianity is a *threat*. Disgusting.
Cite an example of how Americans have failed to protect young girls from "the state".

They advocate teaching mythology in science classes. They openly call for discrimination against the LGBTQ community for no noble purpose. They believe the worst about other faiths. They condone child molestation for political gain.

If this is the true faith in the cross, can anyone remember what Jesus Christ actually taught?

I think most of us know..that if Jesus came back today..the right would call him a Socialist/Communist--Turn the other cheek/ Beta male for sure! Anti-wealthy? Free food for the Poor? Free Medical care..i.e. healing? Non-violence? Love your enemies? Bleeding heart snowflake! Pro Tax? Render Unto Caesar?

It does make one wonder..about those who call themselves both Alt/right and Christian?

It is pretty clear..that Christ would not be a Conservative. Judge not, lest ye be judged? Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone?

Christ has open arms. Some "Christians" have turned backs.

But the left want those who practice that hostile paradigm admitted into this country, right?

Cracks me up when you puff your chest then act the fool.
