WAFG bites the dust!

Another South Florida "Christian" radio station has gone to dead air! Hooray!

For over two weeks 90.3 WAFG "Grace FM" has been off the air. The station has been sold, but alas to an organization called the Bible Broadcasting Network - so the damn thing may well rise from the dead in the coming weeks.

But until that unhappy event actually happens, I'm celebrating the demise of yet another lying Christian station here in the Sunshine state. First WLVJ and now WAFG! A pattern? I hope so.

So for a while, there will be no more "Truth In Action" Ministies from Coral Ridge spewing GOP politics in the name of Jesus every Monday night from the truly unchristian Dr. Jerry Newcombe.

Always beware of people with advanced degrees who insist on describing themselves as "Doctor". This is an indication that even they know they stand on the most shaky of intellectual ground. Remember "Doctor" Kennedy used to list EVERY honorary degree he had at the end of his former comedy hour TV show?


"Jerry Newcombe, D. Min., serves as host of Truth That Transforms with Dr. D. James Kennedy (formerly The Coral Ridge Hour and is Senior Producer for Truth in Action Ministries television. He has produced or co-produced more than fifty documentaries. The host of two weekly radio shows, he has also been a guest on numerous television and radio talk shows. Dr. Newcombe is the author or co-author of 21 books, including with Dr. Kennedy, What If Jesus Had Never Been Born?, How Would Jesus Vote?, The Presence of a Hidden God, and The Book That Made America."

Enough said.

Pastor Donald Cole

Radio Pastor Donald Cole died on August 4th and Moody Radio has been gushing praise out of every orifice for him this week. Nauseatingly gushing it like a Religious Ebola outbreak.

He was of course a complete and utter fraud. As all people are who push their Imaginary Friends on the rest of us.

Just before his retirement from Moody Radio, on a phone-in show where he answered questions about the Bible, I once heard him COMPLETELY FLUMMOXED by a question from a seven year old girl.

The call went something like this :-

Girl: Hello Pastor Cole My name is Daisy. I have a question about Heaven.
Pastor Cole: How old are you?
Girl; Seven
Pastor Cole: Oh my! Seven? You know I was seven once? A long time ago....

(He always got gushingly folksy, especially with little girls)

Girl: Is it true everyone will be happy in Heaven?
Pastor Cole: Oh yes. Everyone is happy there. There is no sadness.
Girl: So I will be happy there too?
Pastor Cole: Most certainly Daisy. You will be happy there forever.
Girl: So if I'm in Heaven, what happens if I look around and all my friends aren't there? Won't that make me sad?
Pastor Cole: Harrumph, harrumph, harrumph. Er..well... Actually....

After he floundered around for what seemed like forever, his answer was the following. I am not making this up.

Pastor Cole: Well Daisy, you won't be unhappy because YOU WILL NOT REMEMBER ANYONE WHO IS NOT THERE. God doesn't want you to be unhappy, so you will not remember anyone who God has not allowed in Heaven because of their sins.

Now where is that doozie in YOUR Bible? It certainly ain't in mine.

I can only hope Daisy wasn't taken in by such a silly and obvious lie.

The Manhattan Declaration - Still An Utter Failure

So it has been more than three months since Chuck "The Felon" Colson popped his clogs so I think it is time to again look at the Manhattan Declaration - Chuck's "enduring legacy" in the very tiny minds of people who do not understand what the word "enduring" means.

OK. The calculation will be as before. I'm assuming the US has a population of 320 million and only adults might be signing this "Christian Manifesto" - which I take to be 50% of the population.

OK. Today on August 4th 2012, a total of 531,508 people have signed the Manhattan Declaration.

Based on 160 million potential signatories, that number represents a mere 0.332% of the people in these United States.

By ANY discernible criteria we might use, this tells us that The Manhattan Declaration has been and continues to be, an Utter and Abject Failure.
