Guess why The American Prospect features RevMoon expose'. (good news)
Because JOE CONASON is its new Investigative Editor.

Conason is fearless and doesn't sugarcoat.

Please pick up a magazine if you can, and pass them around when you're finished. The RevMoon story in the latest issue is DYNAMITE.

Glad they have an on-line version!

Thanks for the head's up on the Moon shot. Will read that one for my qiet time today,

edit to add link to article cuz lots of people need to find out more about Moon who was crowned in a US Congressional room ceremony, with memebers of our Legistalive branch doing the honors a while back.

5. I really wish Rolling Stone or Harper's had picked this up.
The AmProspect has such pathetic circulation.... and this is such a great story I hate to see it get buried like this.

6. Maybe they'll jump into it. There's alot to cover on RevMoon. He controls
almost half this nations' fishing industry.

I would bet my house that not even 1% of Bush voters know that it's the Bush-Moon alliance of over 40 years that allowed this nation's fishing industry to be controlled by a cult leader who claims he was sent to finish the job that Jesus failed to do.

8. recent interview w/Moon, re: fishing industry

ME: So I understand you made a lot of your fortune through the US fishing industry Rev Moon.
REV. MOON: HA HA HA! It is no longer merely a fishing INDUSTRY! I have now dubbed it the Worldwide Unity Church of Fish, and through it I have married each and every fish in America!
ME: Wow that is impressive!
REV. MOON: Fish will no longer debase themselves in gross extramarital usage of the fish love organ! So declares Moon, Guardian Messiah-King of the Fish!
ME: Guardian-King of the Fish?
REV. MOON: Yes indeed! I was annointed such when I ascended bodily into Icthyon, the 19th realm of Heaven, and knighted by JaBudah, the Jesus-Buddah hybrid and holy avatar of the Fish Genome!
ME: Oh wow! Not THE JaBudah?

9. from the same site, some quotes
Edited on Thu Jun-23-05 01:00 PM by Gabi Hayes
"The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism, and become lesbians."

"I think 'one man, one vote,' just unrestricted democracy, would not be wise. There needs to be some kind of protection for the minority which the white people represent now, a minority, and they need and have a right to demand a protection of their rights."

"There is no such thing as separation of church and state in the Constitution. It is a lie of the Left and we are not going to take it anymore."

"If anybody understood what Hindus really believe, there would be no doubt that they have no business administering government policies in a country that favors freedom and equality."

"The Jews are returning to their land of unbelief. They are spiritually blind and desperately in need of their Messiah and Savior."

"I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be!"

"I don't know that atheists should be considered citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God."

"I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good... Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a Biblical duty, we are called by God, to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism."

OK....dunno about the provenance of these quotes, as the first one is from Pat Robertson, IIRC (maybe Fatfalwell), so the others are, who knows

I have read some of them before, and at least a few have been attributed to him

14. Not sure.
Sometimes they do co=op deals if a writer's popularity warrants.
