Brown Shirt Christians Could Eventually Come to Canada….If They’re Not Already There and You Just Don’t Know It Yet………….
aaah, marcy, you are truly a poet. hey, help me out here: can you give us a checklist or something detailing what it takes to be a brown shirt christian? is it something specific, like a set of behavioural and personality characteristics and affiliations or is it a bit elusive- more of a spiritual blood type? up here in canada we have no such expression (to my knowledge anyway)..................

A rap star in her own right who is always happy to set you straight and dignified and not-living-too-exciting-a-life Canadian kind of people who can’t find their asses with both hands, marcy (me) is more than happy to set you on the straight path to truth………………..marcythewhore
A painting by Frank Kozik documents this poignantly. It depicts a crucified Hitler surrounded by Storm Troopers serving as stand-ins for the Apostles. Christian Identity theology makes a similar claim, however unintended. In a recent radio broadcast an Evangelical minister asserted that Hitler was the fulfillment of the prophetic line in the Bible. Like Jesus, Hitler too was crucified by the Jews. As much as the religious right would like to charge that liberalism has degenerated into fascism and the welfare state has become the authoritarian state, nothing better than an image of a beatified Hitler could demonstrate who's really wearing the brown shirt. Those who repress their identity always seem to project it upon their opponents.

oh now come on... we live really exciting lives in canada thanks to american cable t.v.!
you still didn't answer my question. i'm gonna play more-stupid-than-your-average-bear here and say 'where's the checklist?'
i mean, i looked at the posters and none of the characters depicted are wearing shirts at all ...except eric clapton, who is wearing a- GASP!- brown jacket! that's it, all my clapton records are going into the fire!
Like Hitler, Pat Robertson's paranoid fantasies of a world-wide capitalist conspiracy have resurrected class antagonism, but he has lied to the working class about who its enemies really are........

Well, fuck...it keeps truncating the link. Guess you aren't supposed to see that painting either.
Maybe the Holy Ghost is protecting your innocent eyes..........marcythewhore
hey buddy- i got there anyway.
ya know, a friend of mine had that record when i was a kid. the cover and the title were so memorable that i quoted the title as part of a blog awhile back...
http://northvus.blogspot.com/2005/02/bad-habit.html
... and have been trying for years to get cheesey cover photo scrubbed
from my brain (apparently the Holy Spirit chooses to honour our gift of free will in allowing us to put images into our innocent minds where they will be stamped indellibly until Jesus stops counting time and says 'ready or not, here i come'- LOL...cosmic hide-and-seek... sounds way more eschatological than i ever actually think. the preoccupation with 'endtimes' thinking has more to do with 70's evangelicalism's spiritual answer to the cold war than with apocalyptic literature. every generation since john wrote revelation from his lounge chair on the private beach of patmos thought that the book was about them and the end times were upon them... how completely zaphod we can all be as a race of humanity, yeah?)
anyway, thanks for the link, truncated or otherwise. the painting is true gospel: if Jesus were to be crucified today, what better place to hold the event than a parking lot outside a place where everyone congregates readily without being invited or having to pay admission.
malls are too retro, though... should be outside of wal-mart.
Honesty, if you are searching for the answer to life and the universe you should at least be able to find an internet link.....marcythewhore
marcythewhore says: Step One to the Damascus of Becoming a Good Brown Shirt Christian:
Be able to recite any biblical verse whether you get it right or not. Hell, you can even make some up because ninety-nine times out of a hundred they won't know the difference, just so long as you sound like you know of what you speak before going blind and falling on your ass.........mtw
kinda like that guy in 'the grinch' making up laws from the book of who... figured as long as it rhymed no one would be able to tell the difference.
awesome that little cindy-lu who had actually read the 'ancient texts' and called him on it.
My favorite made up verse is Joshua begetted Veronica who begetted James who begetted Wilhemina who begetted Otto Von Bismarck who begetted Liza Minelli who begetted John Paul George and Ringo who begetted Martha Stewart who begetted.....
well, you get the picture. After enough begetting no one is listening anymore anyway......marcythewhore
it's "beGOT"
come on, buddy!
'nothing like the smell of legalism in the morning'
Hezekiah 5:13
Honey, you might begot, but marcy (me) is a pro. I begetted those people.
Step two to becoming a Brown Shirt Christian: Have some kind of white lightning temporal lobe experience.
....marcythewhore
It was a time it is written, when God regretted That mankind had ever even been begetted.
So God determined to put an end to all flesh, Except for a few who could start again fresh.
Of all on the earth only Noah was blameless and could tread water likeocean trash.
"and two by two (my human zoo)
they'll be running for to come
running for to come
out of the rain..."
(freddie mercury, 1975?)
marcythewhore says: Honestly, I don't know why you people keep referring to Freddie Mercury by his stage name. He's in heaven and you should refer to him by his Christian name given at birth of Farookh Bulsara.
Anyway, another stept to becoming a good Brown Shirt Christian is to remind everyone to tithe ten percent and you be the tax collector......marcythewhore

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. It smells like....victory....
oh dear... out come the wagner records!
interesting: same music was used for catherine o-hara's norse goddess who descended from on-high in the 'vikings and bee-keepers' sketch on sctv.
it was a deus ex machina crane, though, not a helecopter.

i was never allowed to say 'farookh' without getting my mouth washed out.

worthless money changing hands...
changing them to what, i wonder.

okay, buddy
i've been writing these down, but that's only three...
keep 'em coming!
