Rev. Joel Webbon #sexist #elitist #fundie peoplefor.org

While Webbon does not think that women should have the right to vote, he explained during a recent podcast that he currently allow his own wife to vote so that she can "concede" her rights back to him by casting her vote in accordance "with the decision that I make for our family"[…]
"If we ever got to the point where it was on the docket and it was something, ironically, that America was voting for—voting to take away the vote of women—me and my wife would both vote on principle, with conviction to take away her vote," Webbon said. "I believe in representative government at every single level all the way down to the household. It doesn't go down to the individual; it stops at the household"[…]
Webbon said that if he votes and his wife doesn't, then his household is losing half its vote and so "in prudence" he allows his wife to vote to ensure that he gets his "full household vote"

"We currently live in a wicked time with wicked rulers who are dominated by feminism and hate men," Webbon declared[…]
In an effort to assure women that he is not just "picking on them," Webbon added that unmarried men, men without children, and men who do not own property should also be stripped of the right to vote

"We should repeal the 19th Amendment because we love God and because we love women," Webbon said. "But beyond that, it's really more than just that. Universal suffrage is not God's design, so there's a lot of men who shouldn't be voting either"

"You need to be a head of household," he stated. "You need to have a stake in the country as it presently lies, but also a stake in the future. That's why marriage is important because it indicates child-bearing, these kinds of things, future generations. A stake in the country also in terms of ownership; land owning males"[…]
"Leaders should vote and God has given it to men to be leaders, and certain men have abdicated that leadership and therefore they should not have the right to vote either"

Rev. Andrew Isker #fundie #sexist #racist peoplefor.org

Right-wing pastor Andrew Isker recently delivered a guest sermon at church in Indiana where he declared that Vice President Kamala Harris is biblically unqualified to be a leader and that it's "insane" that she might actually become president[…]
Isker focused his recent remarks on a passage from Deuteronomy that declares that "no one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off shall enter the assembly of the Lord" and "no one born of a forbidden union may enter the assembly of the Lord. Even to the tenth generation, none of his descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord"

Isker insisted that this was an instruction on how to "construct a temporal order" by requiring leaders to have both a connection to the past via ancestry and to the future via offspring

Since Harris is the child of immigrants and a stepmother with no biological children, Isker asserted that she is unqualified to sit in the Oval Office

"One of the candidates for president, she has no children," Isker said while delivering what he called his "anti-endorsement"

"Mrs. Harris," he continued, "neither of her parents are from America, right? She was born in California, but they both were on on student visas. She doesn't have a connection to the history of this people"

"If you think about the principle of what this is teaching, she is not connected to the past of this country whatsoever," Isker declared. "She doesn't have ancestors that fought in the Civil War or ancestors who fought in the Revolutionary War"

"It's insane, really, that this person who is without a future and without much of a past, at least here, is attaining the highest office in the land, is being installed as the President of the United States," Isker proclaimed

Rev. Joel Webbon and Oklahoma State Senator Rev. Dusty Deevers #fundie #sexist #psycho peoplefor.org

Joel Webbon is a radical Christian nationalist who advocates something called general equity theonomy, a far-right Christian theology that asserts that laws and rules set out in the Old Testament still apply today. While those laws and rules may have originally applied to conditions and circumstances specific to the ancient Israelites, general equity theonomists assert that the general principles behind those rules ought to still be in effect today

This idea was the driving force behind legislation unabashed Christian nationalist pastor and Oklahoma state Sen. Dusty Deevers introduced earlier this year that would have amended the law for "willfully, knowingly and without probable cause [making] a false report" alleging that someone committed a crime by changing the penalty so that those found guilty would face the same punishment that the falsely reported crime carries

Filing a false report was already illegal in Oklahoma, but Deevers' wanted the legislation changed simply so that the punishment will be in accordance with the Bible, repeatedly citing the Bible's various "eye for an eye" provisions[…]
Webbon, who is a close associate of Deevers', used a recent sermon to advocate for this sort of legislation[…]
"So if you accuse in a court of law, falsely accuse someone of murder and it turns out in the final analysis that that person is not guilty of murder[…]and the penalty for murder should be capital punishment—life for life—then you, even though you have not committed murder"[…]
"If that were to occur and the just penalties were to be enforced, you, the false accuser, is now put to death," Webbon declared. "And that's a public death. It's a public sentence, publicly carried out, then the citizens of these United States of America, you know what they would do? #MeToo would end real fast. False accusing, playing the victim when you're actually not; you know how to end that real fast? All you have to do is publicly execute a few women who have lied"

Mark Murillo and Lance Wallnau #fundie #racist #sexist #wingnut peoplefor.org

"We were attacked, folks. We really were," [Mark] Murillo complained during last week's "Fire Power" program. "We're all over the place. You can look on Google and see that 'Fire Power' was attacked by the Huffington Post, by the New York Times, by CNN, and by the Washington Post."

"All of them, and it's totally ridiculous," Murillo asserted. "It's a foolish attack, folks."

"What happened was we had Lance Wallnau on the show—who's going to be with us in a moment—and we were talking about witchcraft and Kamala Harris," Murillo explained. "She was called a witch and they lost their minds. Now, I want you to consider this: How many Pentecostal preachers do you think there are in the United States and then ask them how many of them believe that witchcraft is involved with this woman. There are tens of thousands of us that really question the role of demonic power and the supernatural in this woman's campaign."

"It's not a crazy idea," Murillo insisted. "And for you to wonder if we've lost our mind is totally unacceptable."
