Candidate #4 - #RalphReed

Former #ChristianCoalition "golden boy" Ralph Reed could be in the running for President in 2004, though it looks less likely since he failed in getting his Minions into Congress and the Senate. Reed's hate-filled politics go hand-in-hand with the #Nazi agenda - White Christian Supremacy!

So, many years ago (the mid 1990s), I collaborated with my friends to create one of the first online magazines -- What? Magazine Online. One of my feature stories was, "Who Is The Antichrist?". It was mostly tongue-in-cheek except when it came to one "candidate" -- #RalphReed of the #ChristianCoalition. Rancid Ralph and his ilk (#JerryFalwell, #PatRobertson) have been my mortal enemies for many years. As a NB, Pagan, Environmentalist, Green Socialist, who stood up for the rights of others, I saw them as being the polar opposite of everything I believed in -- like having a living #Biosphere, being in harmony with #Nature, sharing with others, and respecting the rights of non-white and Indigenous folks.

I also had a nightmare vision of the world we're close to living in now, and we're at the crossroads between good and evil (good being that which unites us with God, Nature, each other, and evil being that which separates us from God, Nature, each other. Something I distilled from reading too much #Jung and #Nietzche). Stand up against Fascism (including #CorporateColonialism). It's all about power, abuse of Nature and people, and making a buck. We know better than that (I hope).

#RalphReed Smears #BetsyDeVos Critics As Enemies Of Religion

By Peter Montgomery | February 6, 2017

"#ReligiousRight leaders are rallying to defend Betsy DeVos, Donald #Trump’s nominee to run the U.S. Department of Education, even as grassroots opposition has reportedly swamped congressional switchboards with a record number of calls. Mike Pence may be on hand in the Senate on Tuesday to cast a potentially tie-breaking vote.

"#DeVos is both unqualified and ideologically unfit to run the Department of Education, given that she has devoted much of her time and fortune to diverting money away from public schools, so it makes sense that parents and educators concerned about the future of public education would oppose her nomination. But on Monday, Religious Right political operative Ralph Reed used the FoxNews platform to portray opposition to DeVos as part of a Democratic 'war on religion' and a 'despicable' liberal 'smear campaign.'

"Reed rails against 'stories planted by teacher’s union apparatchiks' that 'smear' DeVos for wanting to divert tax dollars into religious schools. 'In opposing Mrs. DeVos for being a Christian who supports providing children with access to private and charter schools,' writes Reed, 'the Democrats are doubling down on a failed strategy of demonizing people of faith.'

"DeVos and her family have been major donors to both Religious Right and Republican Party organizations and have pushed #AntiUnion and anti-#equality efforts as well as anti-public education efforts. DeVos’s underlying ideology was made clear in a 2015 education speech in which she declared that among the primary principles underpinning her education agenda was 'Government really sucks.'"

So, one of my guilty pleasures is horror movies (I post about those on my "no politics" account). One of my favorites are the Omen movies -- the whole notion that the "Antichrist" would be someone in charge of a large corporation (Thorn Industries) makes total sense! And that "Damien Thorn" was born on June 6th was something that stuck with me.

My personal take on what a real Antichrist would look like became more apparent as I saw the rise of the rabid right and #ChristianCoalition, led by baby-faced zealot #RalphReed. Anyhow, the point I'm trying to make is that good ol' #ErikPrince was born on June 6, 1969, and inherited a lot from his father's business venture (Prince Industries). Could the war-mongering #Christofascist and his evil sister be the manifestation of humanity's worst traits?
