The Atheist Blogger

The Amiable Atheist reports on a blog post written by pastor / “Professor” Tony Beam entitled “Knowing The Enemy and How We Must Fight“. In it, the pastor argues that neo-atheism and Islam are the enemies of Christianity, and we must be stopped.

I find it quite amusing that the first paragraph talks about how Beam had trouble writing the title. He argues that Christ did say “Blessed are the peacemakers”, but Paul wrote “fight the good fight”. Wow…taking Paul’s words over God’s??? That might not go down so well with the big “G” and the big “J” to be honest…but it does show the idiotic nature of these people. They will go through the entire Bible, ignoring anything said by Jesus or anything contradictory to make a point against something.

So what does Tony Beam conclude from the threat of Islam and atheism?

We must replace “Regressive Christianity” with the mystery of an aggressive yet gentle faith that is firmly grounded in God’s Word and faithfully demonstrated in the lives of God’s people.

Great, so even more fundamentalists trying to enforce their religious dogma on innocent people.
