Not the "Jesus" Right

Make no mistake, the religious right means business.

They want their agenda pushed hard. If that means a president must be ousted or some books must be burned, so be it. As long as "Christian" philosophy rules, the means are unimportant.

Last week, a Christian minister was "forced" to issue an apology in regards to some of his comments on the death of president Obama. Although the pastor originally thought that the Pslams gave him ample grounds to hold such a fancy, he has since "changed his mind" and now blesses the American commander-in-chief.

Though we might accuse this man as being a "flip-flopper," his apology is probably best for the ailing Religious Right. Their dwindling numbers don't allow for such unpopular comments.

The examiner reporter who mentions this story is keen to note that the pastor's original behavior is not much in line with Christ's teaching. Her observation is somewhat of a platitude, however. There is a reason, afterall, that the religious right is called the "religious" right and not the "jesus" right.
