What a paradox! After likening fundamental preachers to such things as "two-bit Latin American dictators," "Theological perverts," religious witch hunters who merchandise the Gospel for profit and preach an "upside-down gospel" of fear and hatred and finally suggesting that we missed our true calling since we should be planting corn instead of preaching Christ, the Rev. Walter Thompson goes on to say that what we all need is more love and less of a spirit of judgement.

The streetlight spilled a soft puddle on the dank ground as three dark figures emerged from the foggy darkness to form silhouettes in the glare. All wore robes, carried valises and stood stooped and bent as if shouldering a great burden. They were dressed in black and their collective presence seemed ominously portentous.

Yes, Mr. Volin, there has been a heck of a lot of misery and bondage in our history and there's a lot more to come. But as to those who are inflicting all of the misery, just what is it they are gaining? True, they do gain a lot of physical and monetary pleasures, but whether you belive in God or not, you've got to admit that human existence means a little more than the gaining of these pleasures.

They say every two-bit Latin American dictator who wants to unite his country declares war on his neighbor. The Revs. Mr. Bubar, Frankland, and Gass have declared war on their neighbors and one wonders why? These Pentecostal prima donnas compete with each other in the media in their denunciation of all of us who do not live under the domain of their world view or theology. They also compete with each other for the market that exists for such an upside-down gospel. Could it be the media and the message are tailored to the tastes of the consumer?
