Huckabee Equated Homosexuality With Pedophilia, Necrophilia

Mother Jones:

At the last Republican presidential debate, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, who had surged into the lead in the Iowa polls, pitched himself as the potential president who could unite a nation divided. "I think the first priority of the next president is to be a president of all the United States," he said. "We are right now a very polarized country, and that polarized country has led to a paralyzed government. We've got Democrats who fight Republicans, liberals fighting conservatives, the left fights the right. Who's fighting for this country again?...We've got to be the united people of the United States."...

... In a 1998 book decrying American culture, Huckabee was no seeker of common ground. He drew stark lines, equating environmentalists with pornographers and homosexuality with pedophilia and necrophilia. He also declared that people who do not believe in God tend to be immoral and to engage in "destructive behavior." He drew a rather harsh picture of an American society starkly split between people of faith and those of a secular bent, with the latter being a direct and immediate threat to the nation.

JESUS IS A MYTH. THE BIBLE IS POLITICAL CONTROLLING BULLSHIT NO MATTER HOW MANY PEOPLE WANT TO MAKE IT INTO SOMETHING REAL.

Will we ever be rid of these violently religious and insane morons? The bible is pure myth from start to finish mostly based on pagan worship of the constellations.

We are in the age of Pisces as marked with the symbol of two fish. At the end of this age we enter the age of Aquarius. The twelve disciples represent the twelve months and so on. Jesus is the sun (son), the light, in the heavens ... and he is not the first messiah to come along born on the 25th of December, was killed and then resurrected three days later ....

In fact there were so many versions of this plagiarized sacrificial cult it's ridiculous. Religion is bullshit. Christianity is a cult made into law by politicians ... and if they have their freaking way they will make it law in this country.

They want control and money. They will bring hate, separation, and death.

Homosexuality is a natural occurrence. It's totally normal and right. It threatens nobody unless they are sick and insane and can't deal with the real world. To those who must have a make believe world around them at all times homosexuality is a nightmare. It's not going away ever so if it bugs you maybe you should look at yourself for a freaking change. Huckabee you spastic moron...

Do some homework and quit believing the lies you have been fed since birth. I am sick of the feeble minded losers on this earth that can not see reality.

The bible is not true ... there is zero real evidence that Jesus existed much less that an invisible man/god is up in the sky judging what we do with our reproductive parts.

Only chronically dependent weak individuals believe this crap and only evil dark souls use it to gain money and power.

Huckabee is an evil lying psycho prick. The fact that he has a following shows how messed up so many stupid people are.

What a fucking nutjob!

Every considerate friend of civil liberty, in order to be consistent with himself, must be the friend of the Bible.

Huckabee's son has a history of hanging dogs. True Family Values, I guess...

Please tell the man that not everyone that has AIDS is Gay, but Gay people have suffered the most. No, I was taught that Jesus loves every one that he created. But I'm a Catholic.

Huckabee is a JOKE! the universe is only 6000 years old? Rethugs: is this the best you can do? Pathetic.

"right wing Christian" == Oxymoron.

Why do we let these crazies claim they are Christians?

They stand for everything Jesus was against, and they are against everything Jesus was for.

How DARE the claim to be Christians.

See Zeitgiest the movie! It's 3 of the top 100 videos!

having sex with huckawad is far worse than necrophilia

[dr4Will]

the baptist preacher is a racist and stinks of homophobia- a sick man who says he talks to GOD--probably with Larry Craig--he will be found out as long as his big mouth is squawking---

[BrianZ]

"He also declared that people who do not believe in God tend to be immoral and to engage in "destructive behavior." "

I guess he's speaking from experience from the party of immoral and destructive behavior. Or is the theory that it doesn't count as long as it's in bathroom stalls, in "innocent" emails and IM's, with well paid prostitutes, etc etc?

[NoFactsJustTruth]

Well, THAT is just SOOO ironic!

I've ALWAYS equate pedophelia with religion...


Go figure.

This is just part of the republicans new program NMLB -no moron left behind.

Huckabee's ignorance,fear and bigotry is horrific.

For the life of me I will never be able to wrap my head around this basement mentality,nor do I wish to,for it would require I forgo my humanity and my sanity.

Environmentalists are equivolent to pornographers?

U-n-b-e-l-­i-e-v-a-b-­l-e!

You just know this is making those confused Log Cabin Republicans quite, quite moist.

Non-believers are on the dark side and allied with the forces of decline.
