You know ... I'd like to point out to y'all that it was only 19 years ago that the last black man was lynched.

Did you hear me?

In 1989, the last recorded black man was lynched ... for being black.

Racism runs deep in this country.

The fact that none of you seem to 'get' the gravity of 'mock lynchings' only validates my point that the Modern American Christian Conservative Movement is ... at thecore ... founded upon the fight AGAINST Civil Rights in the South. I personally believe that it's an endemic suspicion ... an Intolerance for anything slightly different that binds this 'Movement' together.

Now, I know you are good people. And I know that you can't possibly be the Crazy Extremists you promote yourselves to be.

I know that if I met you face to face, I would like you and we would get along fine.... well except FSU92grad ... (I actually believe he's a little prick ... but that's just my interpretation of his insult based commentary.)

But you have to understand ... America needs to move past the blind, ignorant hatred that is the origin of the Christian Conservative Movement.

I believe that racism does at least as much harm to the racist hater as it does to the object of the racist's hatred.

And don't kid yourself .... racism has harmed our nation deeply.

You know, in France, where racism was never nearly the issue it has been in America ... blacks and whites work together.

I believe the best thing that could happen to this country is for Barack Obama to become president so that America can turn the page on the Racial Hatred and Love for War that defines the Modern American Christian Conservative Movement.

Don't you agree, in your heart of hearts, that calling yourselves Christians, and harboring such hatred, hypocrisy, and Moral Vacancy, you demean the essential message of Love that Jesus taught?

I hope you agree.
