Paige Patterson, former president of the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, tells student it was a “good thing” that she was raped.
Patterson, former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, was fired as president of the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary last week after disturbing facts came to light about the religious leader’s over-the-top misogyny, and his deplorable treatment of sexual assault victims.
According to reports, Paterson lied about his treatment of a rape victim, and tried to isolate another rape victim from police so he could “break her down.”
The fired Southern Baptist seminary leader who wanted to get an alleged rape victim alone to “break her down” also said it was a “good thing” she had been raped and that her future husband wouldn’t care if she was a virgin or not…
Paige Patterson, a giant in the Southern Baptist world, was fired from the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth on May 30 in response to his handling of sexual assault allegations. He had been pushed to president emeritus May 23.
The three alleged assaults took place in October 2014 and April 2015 and were reported in August 2015. The alleged assailant, according to the victim’s attorney, Stuart Cochran of Dallas, was a Southwestern student and employee.
“I am told he said it was a ‘good thing’ my client had been raped and that her future husband wouldn’t care if she was a virgin or not,” Cochran said of Paige in a statement to the Star-Telegram. “He threatened to sic lawyers on her [mother] for questioning his leadership at the school when she asked why the assailant was allowed on campus.”
That’s right, Patterson wanted to be alone with a rape victim so he could “break her down” before the police could talk to her. In addition, he also told her it was a “good thing” that she had been raped and that her future husband “wouldn’t care if she was a virgin or not.”
This is not the first time Patterson has made headlines for being a misogynistic pig. Earlier this year reports surfaced that Patterson claimed that it’s “always wrong” to support a woman seeking a divorce, even if that woman is being physically abused by her husband.
In a recently released tape first reported on by the Texas Statesman, Patterson was asked what he recommends for women “who are undergoing genuine physical abuse from their husbands, and the husband says they should submit.”
It depends on the level of abuse to some degree. I have never in my ministry counseled that anybody seek a divorce, and I do think that’s always wrong counsel. There have been, however, an occasion or two when the level of the abuse was serious enough, dangerous enough, immoral enough that I have counseled temporary separation and the seeking of help. I would urge you to understand that that should happen only in the most serious of cases. . . More often, when you face abuse, it is of a less serious variety.
Later in the tape Patterson says he would give this advice to women being abused by their husbands:
you have to do what you can at home to be submissive in every way that you can and to elevate him
That’s right, Patterson’s advice to a woman being beaten and physically abused by her husband was “to be submissive” and to “elevate” her abuser.
In yet another example of the depraved misogyny and immorality at the heart of conservative Christianity, Patterson argued that it is “biblical” for adult men to lust after underage girls.
In a recently uncovered sermon Paige is caught joking about lusting after a “very attractive young co-ed” who he noted “wasn’t more than about 16.” Commenting on the underage girl, Patterson tells his large congregation:
Mmmmmm… Let me just say, she was nice.
In the sermon, the Southern Baptist leader went on to suggest that lusting after the teen was “just being biblical.”
Bottom line: Prominent Southern Baptist leader Paige Patterson tells women being abused by their husbands that divorce is not an option, justifies pedophilia as “just being biblical,” and once told a student that it was a “good thing” that she was raped.
This is a hate crime.Time to stop this hate. Demand for Hill to step down. Don't vote for this thing who says he's a Good Christian. He's a evil man like Hitler.
According to their Christianity they are suppose to love thy neighbor and according to the Christian Bible Jesus was never married and hung out with all men. Wonder if he was Gay? And if G-d created men and women in his own image maybe God was a cross dresser or gay, lesbian, transsexual or fluid gender.
We are now discovering those who protest so much in Congress against the LGBTQAI+ community are latent Homosexuals. Hill are you one of them?
A citizen comments: “In 1 Corinthians, it says that a man who has an affair with another man will be put to death.”
Hill’s response?
“It says that in the Old Testament, too.”
Another attendee asks, “Can you introduce legislation?”
Chuckles are audible. The state representative joins the laughter. “I wonder how that would go over?” Hill says.
It’s unsurprising that Hill would find such a suggestion worthy of laughter. In the past, he has said that God is judging the nation because of the “homosexual movement,” he says that Pride parades “promote the gay agenda” and he once suggested, “Let’s replace LGBTQ with a ‘?’ That covers the whole thing.”
Fake news, Carlos! And you know it. I never said I wanted to kill anyone! Instead, I am being attacked because I have made a strong stand to protect the preborn in the womb. You should focus on doing your job better instead of every word that proceeds out of my mouth. #Obsession.
[I said I didn’t recall laughing or the comment] before I heard the audio. This event happened a week ago Thursday. I laughed at the nonsense of running legislation that the gentleman in the audience suggested. And you know it. Don’t join the #FakeNewsMedia
If you listened to the audio and still come to that conclusion [that I support killing gay people], then you really are a partisan hack.
[My resignation] ain’t gonna happen! Your attacks are because I don’t back down from strong conservative values including protecting the preborn!
My entire article about Dennis Ross and Duncan Hunter was removed by a hacker who managed to get into my Blogspot blog. But the letter below was not removed because it was saved on another computer I do not use on the net.
Both of these men wanted to kill Jews living in Israel and yet the Republican party totally ignored this stating they "stand" by Israel. Obama "Obama rejected Jordanian King Abdullah's pleas for Predator drones" knowingly that Abdullah and his Uncles, Cousins, and other relatives, who were leaders of the tribes in Jordan, were making deals with ISIS. They then pledged their allegiance to ISIS and the plan Jordan had was to give drones to ISIS along with the Hellfire Missiles to destroy Israel.

My
Fellow Americans
I
obtained your names from various Jewish Groups, Rabbis and
Jewish Coalition PAC Lists. My name is Loretta Miller and I
am running for US Congress Florida District 15 . I am writing to you
to tell you of a serious matter that is happening in Congress. Just
because someone tells you they stand for Israel or is a friend of
Israel, they could be a “wolf in sheep's clothing” and after you
vote for them, it could be too late. I found two Congressmen, both
Christians who claim to be “for Israel”, since the Republican
Parties platform is Pro Israel. We don't know realistically who the
others are or how many there are, but there is a Bill that these two
Congressmen are pushing through Congress, which will not only
endanger US citizens but also Israel. US Congressmen Duncan
Hunter, (R-CA) and Dennis Ross (R-FL) have relaunched Congressional
pressure on the White House to sell deadly drones to Jordan.
Hunter and Ross have been lobbying for this deal for almost two years
now. Both want Jordan to obtain Reaper and Predator drones.
The ruling regime in
Jordan cannot be trusted with sophisticated, deadly American military
technology. What is most disturbing is at best that these
Congressmen are ignorant of this danger, or worse, aware of it and
still pushing for the deal.
The common rhetoric
is that Jordan is a “safe” ally of the US. Nonetheless, facts
speak louder than any narrative Mr. Hunter, Mr. Ross and their
friends which includes Democrats and Republicans may choose to
believe and thereby impose upon the rest of us.
To
begin with Mr. Hunter and Mr. Ross justifies giving Jordan such
deadly and advanced weapons system, because he insists that “Jordan
is a key ally in the war on ISIS”. How valid is this claim?
Last year, Jordan’s
regime operatives were caught stealing US weapons and selling them to
rogue militants. One of those guns was illegally sold by them to a
senior Jordanian counter-terrorism officer who used it to kill two
American military trainers and two South Africans. What is alarming
being that none of those officers involved have been named or
arrested, and the king has never been questioned on the matter.
Further, 87,000
rounds of ammunition were stolen from the British army in Jordan
right at Jordan’s military camps in the south and then mysteriously
transported to the Syrian border and sold to, you guessed it, ISIS!
Could such things happen in a country like Jordan without the full
consent of the King of Jordan? And even if he is, at best, reckless,
would Mr. Hunter and Mr. Ross like to give him drones if he cannot
even control ammunition and sells them to ISIS?
The
bad news doesn’t stop here. CNN itself, usually very sympathetic to
the King of Jordan, has confirmed he was the second biggest buyer of
ISIS oil, securing cash flow for ISIS which the terror organization
uses to kill Muslims, Christians, and Yazidis. Other media reports
confirmed extensive business dealing between Jordan’s regime and
ISIS including 4,500 Toyota trucks sold to Jordan’s government that
ended in ISIS hands. Dennis Rosshas
taken money from Toyota in campaign funds.
The
problem is even deeper than this. Last November, a Jordanian airman
executed three American servicemen in cold blood. The M16 he used,
was paid for by US taxpayers so was the uniform he was wearing and
his body armor. Those special forces officers were training Syrian
rebels to fight ISIS. A video of the execution was shown to the
families of the victims. In the video, the executioner is seen
chasing the soldiers for six and half minutes, while they were waving
their hands and shouting in Arabic and English: “We’re
American’s, we’re friends!” The video is called on YouTube US
trainers killed in Jordan shooting. What
was more bizarre is Jordan’s regime’s reaction: They accused the
victims of failing to follow the entry procedures and then went as
far as defending the killer in an official statement, and shamelessly
stating he had applied the rules of engagement. Massacre came less
than a year after the previous incident noted above, and in both
cases the killers were Jordanian officers directly engaged in the war
in Terror. James Moriarty, the father of one of the soldiers killed
makes the best argument Hunter and Ross must hear: “If Jordan is
our friend, do we need any enemies?” That triple murder was not the
first time a Jordanian airman killed the innocent. Captain Al-Majali
of the Royal Jordanian Air Force joined ISIS in 2013 and died
fighting for it in 2015. The list of Jordanian officers who have
joined terror groups and killed Americans does not end here, there
are others.
After
all of this, could Congressmen Hunter and Ross give us any guarantees
those drones won’t be used by Islamists with Jordan’s forces to
kill Americans, Israelis, or Jordanians? In fact, why wouldn’t they
as the King of Jordan has been protecting those killers and defending
them as with the executioner who killed three American officers last
November. Those drones, if given to Jordan’s regime, could be used
to carry out terrorist attacks across Jordan’s borders to Israel,
especially that they could fly low and are less detectable than an
F16 or worse, cause strife between the US and Israel because the
drones were built in the US. The drones are smaller in size and
therefore somewhat harder to detect. In addition, terrorists could
use the drones to attack Israel, US troops in Jordan, or even
Jordanian civilian targets from the safety of their offices and then,
perhaps, they could flee and join terror groups in Syria. As a recent
Congressional study report confirms: Jordan is the second largest
supplier of ISIS terrorists. Needless to say, no way this could have
happened for too long with such a high number of fighters without
Jordan’s king turning a blind eye. Or, at best, he is unable to
control his own borders. And yet Mr. Hunter and Mr. Ross want to give
him deadly drones
In
fact, the Syrian Government has officially accused Jordan’s regime
of facilitating terrorist’s entry into Syria. Mr. Hunter and Mr.
Ross are being reckless and dangerously irresponsible, and their acts
could result in engendering Israel’s borders, American troops, and
the Jordanian people as well as the US.
It
is so important that the Jewish Community as well as the Christian
Community to vote these Congressional Leaders out of office and place
those who will not only stand by Israel but also with the American
people who are fighting to keep America safe. This is why I am
running against Dennis Ross for US Congress as a Republican in
District 15. I became a Republican to get Ross out in the Primary. I
am a JFK Democrat which today's Democrats try to silence.
ONE
Vote Against this Bill and put to rest could make the difference in
protecting America as well as Israel our only true friend in the
Middle East. I call on you to help me get into Office. I need $10,000
to get on the ballot for both the Primary and the General. I am
calling on all my Chaverim to help save Israel from Anti Semites and
Anti-Israel Congressmen like Dennis Ross and Duncan Hunter. It's bad
enough we have fifty-seven Muslim Countries who want the Final Jewish
Solution. “From the River to the Sea” is not a jingle for a
resort town, it means “Massacre Israelis and Americans!”
We
cannot allow another Holocaust. Never Again! Donations are needed to
remove Dennis Ross in the Primary. Even if you just give $18.00 or
double triple quadruple Chai (חי). You
can donate several ways. Go to my

donate through PayPal or you can send me a check. Make the payable to
The Committee to Elect Loretta Miller, 16340 Cagan Oaks, Clermont

Remember
Chai (חי)
in Hebrew means “life” and putting in a Pro Israel Jew in office
will guarantee that Israel and you have a friend in Congress who will
protect Israel and the Jewish and Christian Communities.

We now find out that Duncan Hunter murdered innocent civilians when he was in Afghanistan like it was a hobby. After this was exposed he was rewarded by being re-elected while indicted. I am not wondering are those voters alive or real people? Did he receive his donations from White Supremacy Groups such as he KKK or the Patriot Nazis?
Rep. Duncan Hunter says his unit 'killed probably hundreds of civilians' in Iraq
Nicholas Wu, USA TODAYPublished 10:24 a.m. ET June 3, 2019
WASHINGTON — Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., is currently awaiting trial for misusing over $250,000 of federal campaign funds for personal use. But this hasn't stopped him from stirring the pot further.
In an interview with Barstool Sports' Zero Blog Thirty podcast, Hunter said while serving as a Marine field artillery officer in Iraq, his unit had "killed probably hundreds of civilians, if not scores, if not hundreds of civilians" and "probably women and children."
Hunter's comments came in response to a question about his support for Navy SEAL Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher, who was accused of using a knife to kill a teenage Islamic State prisoner in Iraq and posing for a picture with the body, and of other killings of civilians.
On the podcast, Hunter said that he "frankly [doesn't] care" if the ISIS fighter was killed, and that "even if everything the prosecutors say is true in this case, then Eddie Gallagher should still be given a break, I think."
The San Diego Union-Tribune reported that during a May 25 town hall, Hunter also admitted to posing with a body of an enemy combatant, saying, "a lot of us have done the exact same thing.”
Recent reports suggested that Trump might pardon Gallagher and other men accused of war crimes. Gallagher, who has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, has become a cause célèbre among conservative lawmakers. In an op-ed in USA TODAY, Hunter said that Gallagher "cannot expect to receive even a semblance of a fair trial," calling for Trump to pardon Gallagher.
In its annual report on civilian casualties associated with U.S. military operations, the Department of Defense explains that civilian casualties are a "tragic and unavoidable part of war," but "no force in history has been more committed to limiting harm to civilians than the U.S. military."

Remember I exposed Dennis Ross for tor the same thing. Dennis Ross spent $30,000 on cellphones for his campaign in 2016. How many cell phones did he buy? I am not talking about the service but the iPhones. Ross used his Federal office for his campaign office. Now, we have Vincent Ross Spano who too Ross's place in a fixed election. He too faked his finances. He took out a loan he obtained from friends. Instead of listing this loan as a loan, he put in names of non existing people or dead people trying to show how popular he was. Dennis Ross used to travel to Anaheim California collect money from Disney (Ross was the Workers Compensation Attorney for Disney) and listed this huge amount of money he sent home as donations. I wrote to each person on his list telling them they have a choice. I never asked for a donation and 95% of the mail sent out come back as non existing or deceased. Three friends, three lawyers, who represent you who are Trump supporters who broke the laws. And the Republicans tried to hush this up. If you want to remove these Republican Nazis, the Democrat Party better get their act together and support me!
I am running for US Congress in Florida District 15 and I thought I heard everything from Dirty Christ Killing Jew to being called a Hymie, Kike, Jude Hündin etc. You get the idea This was sent to me and it blew my mind that I must pass it on and basically warn you of times to come. We need to put more Jews in Office to protect us.
WA Lawmaker Attends Fundraiser for Liberty, a Proposed 51st State for Christians. County Prosecutor Larry Haskell, former Treasurer Rob Chase and gun activist Anthony Bosworth also were in attendance, as were Barry and Anne Byrd, who lead the Marble Community Fellowship in northern Stevens County. (In 1988, Barry Byrd helped pen a Christian Identity manifesto that referred to Jews as “anti-Christs” and condemned interracial marriage, though the Byrds have since tried to distance themselves from racist ideology.)
And I was told by the Republican Party they stand with Jews and Israel. Where do they want to stand? In front of the Gas Chambers or telling the firing squid to Ready, Aim Fire?
I do not see Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs even mentioning this since she is so much against Jewish Democrats she'd rather ignore this and go after Muslims who mostly all have Jewish roots and are distant cousins to Jews.Yo Pamela Geller, there is hate in every religion and the Jews fought hand and hand with the Muslims to protect our homes our lands during the Spanish Inquisition and Israel during the Crusades. And because of people like you cause more hate and we need to join those fighting against Nazi Republican Conservative Antisemitism Right now "Our Enemy of Our Enemy's Are Our Friends"
On Thursday night, a group of people gathered in Washington state to raise money for their campaign to create Liberty, a 51st state specifically made for conservative Christians.
I guess they’ve never heard of Alabama.
Liberty would span several states in the Pacific Northwest:
Shea was at the fundraiser… which was really not much more than a literal bake sale. What’s scary is that he wasn’t the only politician there.
The lineup of speakers included Shea, a Spokane Valley Republican who has championed the Liberty State movement; Spokane City Councilman Mike Fagan; Spokane City Council candidate Tim Benn; and Loren Culp, the police chief in Republic, Washington, who made national headlines when he pledged not to enforce a controversial gun control initiative that voters passed in November.
County Prosecutor Larry Haskell, former Treasurer Rob Chase and gun activist Anthony Bosworth also were in attendance, as were Barry and Anne Byrd, who lead the Marble Community Fellowship in northern Stevens County. (In 1988, Barry Byrd helped pen a Christian Identity manifesto that referred to Jews as “anti-Christs” and condemned interracial marriage, though the Byrds have since tried to distance themselves from racist ideology.)
Before you call them extremists, though, at least listen to what Shea’s legislative assistant Rene’ Holaday said:
[Holaday] said supporters of the 51st state idea were bound by a common sentiment: “It’s either going to be bloodshed or Liberty State.”
Okay, now you can call them extremists. (They don’t have a publicly available Constitution for the new state, but they do have an official state rifle: The AR-15.)
There were protesters at the event but it didn’t stop Shea from spreading his insane Christian propaganda:
Shea delivered the last speech of the night, covering many of his usual talking points. He denied the existence of global warming, instead blaming seasonal wildfires on changes in forest management practices. He spoke of the cultural and political differences between Eastern and Western Washington. He claimed the United States is “a Christian nation” under siege by atheists and Communists.
…
“The Communists and atheists — those that are responsible for the deaths of more people than any other belief system in the history of the world — unfurled their flag on the Capitol steps this last spring,” he said.
It’s unclear how much money they made selling pies, or how a few bucks will make it easier to create a new state, but I, for one, am fully in favor of having one state that all the conservative Christians move to. Give them one representative, two senators, and leave all the rest to the sensible people who respect human rights, fight for civil liberties, care about facts, and don’t fetishize weapons.
I was out today getting my Ballet Petitions signed I was wearing my button . I got over 50 Petitions signed in 1 1/2 hours. The ignorant ones who made nasty comments were the Nazi Good Christian Republicans who told me straight out "I was a dirty Christ Killing Jew Regardless If I was A Republican, Democrat or Independent' "I am stealing money from Good Christian Churches". This is what I have to deal with, major Republican Antisemitism. The Republican party is a Christian Party and Jews should leave them @RealDonaldTrump #DonaldJTrump. #Trump
