This summer is going is going to a joyous season filled with racist scum, like Wright, running their mouths leading up to the election.

Hey look there is Rev Wright with the terrorist guy from the neighborhood.


Last week, Wright spoke at Metropolitan Baptist Church in Charleston, West Virginia, as part of a week-long revival event. His controversial words took aim at Thomas Jefferson, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, the media and plenty of other targets.

“I’m not divisive, the media is divisive,” he said, going on to lament the soundbites he claims were unfairly used to disparage him during the 2008 campaign.

As could be expected, the three evening sermons he delivered during the revival often turned to themes and subjects much more controversial than alleged media bias.

“Believers beware,” Wright preached in one of his lessons. “There are some conversations you will find yourselves in in which there is no communication taking place.”

He went on to speak about Jesus and Pontius Pilate in John 18 in the Bible, saying that they were speaking “two different languages.“ This sermon quickly delved into his belief that ”the Italian army — Roman soldiers“ were ”occupying Palestinian territory.”

Then, Wright found himself discussing U.S. operations in the Middle East, while also taking aim at FOX News personalities Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity.

“I was in the military six years and neither Hannity or O’Reilly was in the military,” he proclaimed. “Let me tell you one thing they taught us in the United States Marine Corps…fighting for peace is like raping for virginity. Those are oxymorons, but that’s what we do in the name of regime change.”

The controversial preacher also showed no love for Justice Thomas, as he told his audience that, though Thomas “looks like” them, he is “worshipping some other God.” He also made an intriguing comparison about the God of the Hebrew Bible and the Lord depicted in the Quran.

“The god of racists is not the God of righteousness. The god of the greedy is not the God of grace. The god of Wall Street is not the God of Main Street,” Wright proclaimed. “Those are two different gods and I ain’t talking about Allah and Yahweh. Those are the same names for the same God.”

He continued, taking a jab at Thomas and his Christian faith.

“And I’m not talking about black and white…some of ya‘ll think I’m talking about white folk,” he said. “There’s a whole lot of folk who look like you who are worshipping some other God — somebody shout Clarence Thomas. Hallelujah!”

Wright also tackled racial issues, while waging a bizarre accusation at Thomas Jefferson.

“There are politicians who are making decisions about you, about your life, about your future, about your family about your children — and the real tragedy is they live in a different world from your world all together,” he proclaimed. “There are people in power right now who have opinions about you based on their privilege of skin color.”

As he spoke about race, Wright’s rhetoric intensified.

“I am in the text. Pilate was European…Jesus was not European. They live in a world shaped by European standards of beauty, shaped by Moynihan studies, shaped by bell curves — they live in a different world from your world all together,” he told the audience. “They are ignorant and arrogant and these are graduates of Harvard and Yale setting policies over you based on the stupidity of David Hume…Voltaire, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Thomas Jefferson — a pedophile — Theodore Roosevelt and a racist Supreme Court.”

But he wasn’t done there.

“The ignorance and arrogance of white supremacy have the movers and shapers of world policy living in a different world from people of color all together,” Wright raged on. “And the sooner you realize that the better off you’re gonna be.”

Early on in this same address, while speaking about Luke 19, Wright took aim at conservatives, saying, ”You will not hear this passage of John 19 preached on Wall Street. You won’t hear this Luke 19 Scripture exegeted in the comfortable pews of the rich folk, the greedy folk or the Tea Party praisers.”

It is in this chapter that Zacchaeus, a tax collector, encounters Jesus and subsequently decides to change his ways, pledging to give half of his possessions away. Additionally, he offers to give back four times what he owes to anyone he has cheated. Clearly, the preacher sees conservatives as “greedy folks.”

“That is called restorative justice and theology – restore the stuff that the greedy stole from the needy,” Wright continued.

Watch comments cut together from all three of Wright’s speeches, below:

Must be election season. All of Bo-Bo's pals are getting the band back together.

Hate the rich. Hate capitalism. Demonize big business. Be racially divisive at every turn.

Divide and conquer. And the sheeple can't grab a spoon large enough to gobble it all down.

This is my favorite part:

Quote:“I am in the text. Pilate was European…Jesus was not European.

Just for the biblical record Jerry - The romans could have given a crap about Jesus, he wasn't even on their radar screen. At trial Pilate didn't see any reason to convict him much less kill him. It was the Jewish leaders who saw him as a threat and wanted him offed. Er, oh wait, you hate Jews too don't you?...nevermind.

I want everyone here who voted for and might vote again for Obama to take a moment and imagine Obama on a weekly basis in a church pew sitting and listening to this hateful, psychotic, fool.

And remember the words - "spiritual mentor".

According to bearcatmark, such sentiments don't exist in high public office OR the mainstream media.

I had to take a doubletake at the title of the thread. At first I thought it said.....

Rev. White is Black.

All romans were not Italian, that's just stupid.
Though they were occupying territory, it wasn't Palestinian.
Peace requires a military hand to maintain it. The civilized society that allows Mr. Wright to speak, was fought for and is still fought for today. It has far more in common with christ, than the jews who were the ones that actually wanted him crucified.
More over, Jesus wanted to be crucified. Pilot wanted to release him.

Quote:The controversial preacher also showed no love for Justice Thomas, as he told his audience that, though Thomas “looks like” them, he is “worshipping some other God.” He also made an intriguing comparison about the God of the Hebrew Bible and the Lord depicted in the Quran.

There is no comparison to be drawn. The God of the Hebrew Bible has no name. Though there are several terms referencing it. The god of the Quran, refers to itself as "Allah".
The god of the Quran is not omniscient, as 65% of the verses in the Quran are abrogated or revised verses.

Quote:“The god of racists is not the God of righteousness. The god of the greedy is not the God of grace. The god of Wall Street is not the God of Main Street,” Wright proclaimed. “Those are two different gods and I ain’t talking about Allah and Yahweh. Those are the same names for the same God.”

Yahweh still exists in jewish liturgy, but jews do not use the term in reference to their God. "Yahweh" simply means lord. It's a title not a name. Allah can be traced back to the rock god of the Ka'ba.

Mr. Wright would do well to learn about a slave owning, pedophile, necrophilliac, named Muhammad.
He should also realize, Voltaire would never crucify Jesus and that white europeans during the enlightment, made it possible for him to voice this non-sense today. Even the most hard-lined atheist among them, was more christian than he is.

As for Hegel, Hegel's view of the monstrocity that is Jesus would do Wright a world of good.
Jesus wanted to be crucified. Jesus was not merely a representation of the divine, Jesus was God incarnate. His partial object. When Pilot asked him, "are you king of the jews?", obviously looking for some reason to either punish or likely release him, he replied "My kingdom is not of this world." It is only as this contradiction "man-God", that God is able to incarnate itself. If it were any other way, it would hardly be divine. More over, the purpose of death and ressurection and the entire explanation of how it's possible, goes out the window, if we simply view Jesus as a man.
Jesus was God looking back at himself, through the distorted eye of man. It was only when he died and ascended, that this journey was complete. Beyond that, his death brought about the events, that would topple the temple as predicted in the book of Matthew.
How is this man a reverand? Are the only required traits, necessary to be a reverand to be an angry racist little douche? He's obviously not well educated, with regard to scripture or world history.
I understand that we should want what's best for everyone, but to assume all capitalists have no moral code or ethos, is silly. Not all wealthy people, became wealthy through evil means.

Yet you both share a hatred of the Jewish people.

Politics and religion make strange bedfellows...tell J.Wright to roll over if his snoring keeps you awake at night.

Zionist is not a race. You and your black and white view of reality, are far more compatible with Mr. Wright and his views, than anything I believe.
I suppose orthodox jews in the United States are also racist for speaking out against Israel? Coming from some little white bread, protestant(I'm guessing) that probably rings hollow to them.
You have my condolences, it must be tough to walk around with such a condensed, one dimensional, idealistic, understand of the world around you. Nevermind that semitic people aren't simply jewish or that the original hebrews weren't even monotheists or that they borrowed from earlier religions, such as the Sumerians. The fact you think someone who believes God, chose a semitic group to form a pact with in the first place, has some beef with semitic people, all because of my disagreement with something that arose post WWII and the racist notion of a "jewish state"; is remarkably stupid.

18 months in prison, because he pretended to be Jewish in order to sleep with a woman. How forward and progressive... Totally in line with American values, if you're in complete denial of what those values are.
Then again, why do I bother explaining?

I take back the part about you being stupid.
I don't know you, I only go off my own understanding of the matter.
I am not fond of Israel, their policies or their meddling in other sovereign nations.

I have absolutely nothing to add to the foregoing screed.

I thank you.
