U.S. Army Training Instructor Classifies Catholics, Evangelicals as Extremists Like Al-Qaeda, Hamas. By Rush Limbaugh. RushLimbaugh.com, April 8, 2013.
Rush:
RUSH: There’s a story I ran into. I don't know if
it's a story. It’s something I
discovered over the weekend. It’s hard
for me to describe my emotion when I came across this. The upshot of it is that in an official
manual, the United States Army now lists evangelical Christianity, Catholicism
and Islamophobia as forms of religious extremism, along with Al-Qaeda and Hamas. Stop and think of that. The United States Army, and this, of course,
the Obama administration, lists evangelical Christianity and Catholicism as
forms of religious extremism.
Evangelical
Christianity and mainstream Catholicism is listed with Al-Qaeda and Hamas as
forms of religious extremism.
Evangelical Christianity, Catholicism, Islamophobia are forms of
religion extremism on a par with Al-Qaeda and Hamas. I’ve got the screen shot
of the actual list of religions that come under the headline of religious
extremism in this Army manual. I don’t
know quite how to get my arms around this.
In the homosexual marriage debate, one of the things that’s really
intertwined there is the desire to effectively erase the 2,000 years of
Christianity, Judeo-Christian values, if you will, as a governing force, as a
positive influence on cultures and society.
It is tantamount to erasure, an attempt to erase.
Not
just homosexual marriage, but all of the attacks that are taking place here,
the attempts to equate mainstream American religions with terrorism is done
purposefully with an objective. And the
objective, of course, is to discredit mainstream American and worldwide
religions. If they succeed in this
discreditation, then everything that has flowed from and everything that has
descended from these mainstream religions, everything that has found it’s way
into American cultural life, will also thus be discredited, which is the
objective.
Now, it’s
one thing for some whacko group of activists with a logo and a fax machine to
send something like this out. But for this to be published in an official
United States military Army manual is quite another thing. Again, the US Army listed evangelical
Christianity and Catholicism as examples of religious extremism, along with
Al-Qaeda and Hamas, during a briefing with an Army Reserve unit based in
Pennsylvania. This was on Fox News, too,
last week. The military also listed
Islamophobia as a form of religious extremism.
So the assault on everything that has helped to define this country,
everything that has gone into the making of this country spiritually, morally,
politically, since its founding, is under full-fledged assault.
There
is a universal full-fledged attack on everything that has defined this
country. Now, again, that’s not new,
either. You know it as well as I
do. There have been people trying to
tear down the Catholic Church, tear down religion, tear down the founding of
this country. What is new is how widely
accepted it now seems to be and how brazenly public about their objectives
people on the left are. The United
States Army publishing this now.
