Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds
by John Fugelsang
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In the spirit of George Carlin and Christopher Hitchens, the son of a former Catholic nun and a Franciscan brother delivers a deeply irreverent and biblically correct takedown of far-right Christian hatred-a book for believers, atheists, agnostics, and anyone who'll ever have to deal with a Christian nationalist. For more than two centuries, the United States Constitution has given us the right to a society where church and state exist independently. But Christianity has been hijacked by far-right groups and politicians who seek to impose their narrow views on government, often to justify oppressive and unequal policies. The extremists who weaponize the Bible for earthly power aren't actually on the side of Jesus-and historically they never have been. How do we fight back against those acting-literally-in bad faith?

>>> OK, ALL OF THAT IS FOR MY NEXT POSTING -- HERE IS BASICALLY A LIST OF MY RECENT CONCERNS (since I've had no time to blog about them -- and they ARE NOW the PAST)!!!:
Mom has deteriorated quickly, had Extreme Unction (Roman Catholic Last Rites), three weeks ago, and for the last week, can no longer leave her bed at all. My siblings arranged for hospice care, with several professionals spending a hour with her twice per day, bathing Mom, doing her laundry, preparing her food, etc.
My sister Jane visits nearly every day -- and her sanity has been spared by having the hospice people helping. Mom has been REFUSING all of her former meds and is confused most of the time, now. My younger sister, Julie, arrives today from Pennsylvania for a few days and then my brother Mike, also from Pennsylvania, will arrive from PA for several days to relieve Julie for several more days.
My siblings did not tell me why only a week is planned of this, but I believe they don't expect Mom to make it longer than that.
I had my overnight visit several weeks ago -- when Mom was far more lucid and could get around her house with her walker, still. She and I had long, honest discussions of our past differences -- including Mom again apologizing for having destroyed my careers and wealth four times, beginning in 1978 -- because I would NOT shut up about the Swastikas on our dinner plates, daily beatings growing up, of her perfecting NAZI MIND CONTROL for the CIA from Dr. Josef Mengle's Research, planning (with Coach Lou Holtz), the NAZI takeover of the USA by Christians, both Evangelical Republicans and Moderate Christian Democrats (such as Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, etc.).
MOM PREPARED THE WAY FOR MAGA AND DONALD TRUMP -- LIKE JOHN-THE-BAPTIST IS SAID TO HAVE PREPARED THE WAY FOR JESUS!!!
Strangely, only recently did Mom admit to me that she KNEW my father, William Scott Kenan (1918 - 2014), was a BISEXUAL!!!
And don't forget that my father's earlier Kenan relatives had three properties with over 300 African Slaves each, felling and processing S.E. North Carolina's virgin Pine Forests -- and in fact, the Kenan Family was the World's Largest Supplier of Naval Stores BEFORE the American Revolution!!!
Kenans co-founded the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1789, inventing the FIRST Public University in the World, and later inherited Henry Morrison Flagler's CONTROL of Standard Oil, 40% of the stock of all US Railroads (as well as his own Florida East Coast Railroad).
William Rand Kenan, Sr., as an Elder of First Presbyterian, Wilmington, NC, was the PRIME FORCE behind the 1898 Coup d'Etat (the ONLY successful Coup d'Etat in US History -- killing Blacks & stealing their Property & Elected Offices for JESUS CHRIST!!!), and his son, WRK, Jr., while controlling the stock of Standard Oil of New Jersey (ESSO, now called EXXON), secretly sent 43% of all funds used to elect Adolf Hitler to Chancellor of Germany -- then built the Oil Refineries that produced MOST of the Motor Fuels, Lubricants, and Petro-Chemicals (especially Pervitin, aka: Meth or Adderall), used to fuel Hitler's WAR MACHINE!!!
More recently, Kenans used their wealth and many companies (especially EXXON-MOBIL/RexTillerson & Bank of America), to put Trump into power with the help of Vladimir Putin -- as well as to PAY OFF JOE BIDEN, so that no Democrat would have a chance to win in 2024!!!
>>> REMEMBER: Benjamin Schachtman SOLD HIS SOUL TO THE DEVIL when he created the job of News Director for WHQR-Public Media -- and NOVANT HEALTH/PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH/CIA AGENT KEVIN MAURER PAID FOR IT!!!

NOW, Kevin is hoping to make MORE MONEY off the DESTRUCTION OF DONALD TRUMP !!!
