Rick Warren Allies Mass Distribute Anti-Jewish Comic To School Kids
By Bruce Wilson

In late March 2008, as announced by Rick Warren's publicist A. Larry Ross, Uganda became the second official "Purpose Driven" nation on Earth, following Rwanda. Sometime during the year Uganda also gained the dubious distinction as a nation that distributes state-sanctioned anti-Jewish propaganda to school children. Up to one million copies of Manga Messiah, which features a basic mis-representation of Biblical scripture giving readers the impression that the Jewish Pharisees were in league with Beelzebub, will be distributed in Uganda with the apparent blessings of the Ugandan Ministry of Education and Uganda's First Lady Janet Museveni, who has participated in Rick and Kay Warren's HIV/AIDS conferences.



Following a March 2008 meeting with Janet Museveni, Rick Warren announced his plan to make Uganda the world's 2nd "Purpose Driven" nation and enthused, to an audience at Uganda's elite Makerere University, "The future of Christianity is not Europe or North America, but Africa, Asia and Latin America." Warren's declaration was followed up by Uganda's Archbishop, Henry Orombi, under whose aegis the Church of Uganda intends to distribute ten million anti-Jewish comic books; "Someday we will have a purpose driven continent!"

Typically, accusations concerning the distribution of anti-Semitic material and the spread of anti-Jewish attitudes have tended to focus on the propagation of such material and attitudes by Muslims. But Christianity arguably harbors a much older historic anti-Jewish animus than Islam and although the distribution of anti-Jewish material Christians has barely been assessed even in a cursory manner, preliminary indications suggest that Christian fundamentalist groups have for years been distributing literature with anti-Jewish content on a scale that in some cases, such as in Uganda, is both astonishing and horrific.

1. I KNEW this stuff would surface given enough time.

He really is the whole package.

[AllieB]

2. It just keeps getting better.

Didn't he invoke Hitler Youth as an example for Christian youth to follow? I am disappointed that Obama and his team didn't vet this freak more thoroughly.

[EFerrari]

6. I know the transition team has too much going on but, holy cow.

This person is just the worst. :hi:

[Richard D]

12. I'm disappointed in that and even more disappointed . .

13. The worst vetting since Caribou Barbie. n/t

[The Night Owl]

3. I would go further.

Rick Warren is not just the wrong person to be delivering the invocation at the inauguration but possibly a security threat as well.

[EFerrari]

4. You're probably right about that. n/t

[Deja Q]

5. Let's not do this ally stuff. Even Jeremiah "the bullfrog" Wright would be saying that too.

20. Rick Warren was flying under the Radar for years- Left behind video game

I thought I knew all the Farwells and Pat Robertsons. I had never heard of him
until the saddleback McCain/Obama 'debate'.

Time magazine has described Mr. Warren as one of the nation's most influential Evangelical Christian leaders. He describes himself as a "stealth evangelist" and describes his training programs as "a stealth movement, that's flying beneath the radar, that's changing literally hundreds, even thousands of churches around the world." He claims that he has sold tens of millions of copies of The Purpose Driven Life by developing a worldwide network of pastors.



Left Behind: Eternal Forces

Mark Carver, the executive director of Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Church, sat on Left Behind Games’ advisory board, and Lyndon intends to market Eternal Forces using the same megachurch-based networks that have made Warren a publishing phenomenon. His plans include sending a million demo discs to churches throughout the country.

The Game
Imagine: you are a foot soldier in a paramilitary group whose purpose is to remake America as a Christian theocracy, and establish its worldly vision of the dominion of Christ over all aspects of life. You are issued high-tech military weaponry, and instructed to engage the infidel on the streets of New York City. You are on a mission - both a religious mission and a military mission -- to convert or kill Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, gays, and anyone who advocates the separation of church and state - especially moderate, mainstream Christians. Your mission is "to conduct physical and spiritual warfare"; all who resist must be taken out with extreme prejudice. You have never felt so powerful, so driven by a purpose: you are 13 years old. You are playing a real-time strategy video game whose creators are linked to the empire of mega-church pastor Rick Warren, best selling author of The Purpose Driven Life.

The game, slated for release by October 2006

This game immerses children in present-day New York City -- 500 square blocks, stretching from Wall Street to Chinatown, Greenwich Village, the United Nations headquarters, and Harlem. The game rewards children for how effectively they role play the killing of those who resist becoming a born again Christian. The game also offers players the opportunity to switch sides and fight for the army of the AntiChrist, releasing cloven-hoofed demons who feast on conservative Christians and their panicked proselytes (who taste a lot like Christian).

Is this paramilitary mission simulator for children anything other than prejudice and bigotry using religion as an organizing tool to get people in a violent frame of mind? The dialogue includes people saying, "Praise the Lord," as they blow infidels away.

The designers intend this game to become the first dominionist warrior game to break through in the popular culture due to its violent scenarios and realistic graphics, lighting, and sound effects. Its creators expect it to earn a rating of T for Teen. How violent is that? That's the rating shared by Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - Chaos Theory, a top selling game in which high-tech gadgets and high-powered weapons - frag grenades, shotguns, assault rifles, and submachine guns -- are used to terminate enemies with extreme prejudice.

[The Night Owl]

28. LMAO!

Pretty bad artwork. Look at those 50 pound feet Mr. O'Nazareth.

[EFerrari]

22. Don't forget to rec, please. n/t

[Bluebear]

26. and kick. again.

[Bluebear]

23. Warren: Homophobe, Nazi admirer, what else? And what else will it take??

[cynatnite]

24. Probably would have to shave his head to see if there is a tatooed 666 on it n/t

[Bluebear]

25. The apologists would say it's really "999" and for us to shut up about it.

[bluedawg12]

36. He dotes on the Hitler Jungen imagery just a tad too long.

[Clintonista2]

27. Members of the Warren fanclub are awfully quiet today

[Zuiderelle]

30. Ain't that the truth.

[McCamy Taylor]

32. Warren may be in with the colonialists who are waging war in Africa

trying to take over its natural resources. Hell, he could be in league with the people killing the folks in the Congo.

[Hannah Bell]

34. i think there's already some evidence for that. plus, his "faith-based" birth control

mission in africa gets gov't dollars.


mission work & gov't work in africa very often has covert work attached.

[IndianaGreen]

37. Easy for them to bash LGBTs, but add Jews to the equation

and it becomes harder for them to hide the kind of bigots they really are.

[EFerrari]

29. Kick

[Bluebear]

40. and again

[McCamy Taylor]

31. The US is using Rwanda and Uganda to fight for control of Congo's resources

even though the Tutsis are using the opportunity for "payback" against Hutus--including women and children---in Congo. See my journal for a link about how Warren's ministry in Africa may actually be part of the US capitalists' efforts to control Africa's resources.

This is about that big rally in which he wanted people to act like Maoists or Hitler Youth.

[foxfeet]

33. K&R

[bluedawg12]

35. Antisemitism and homophobia from the reichwing - here's more.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=221&topic_id=115296&mesg_id=115296

[EFerrari]

42. Dominionists like Warren and Palin are 'Christian' white supremacists.

[Behind the Aegis]

38. No real surprises.

[orleans]

39. ugh. k&r. would it be so terribly rude for the obama team to say:

"in light of some recent findings, rick the asshole warren is unable to appear today"

come on, how hard would that be? it's only one sentence and poof! ALL GONE!

just another nail in warren's coffin--i never thought he should be the "chosen" one

[EFerrari]

41. Kick

[leftstreet]

43. K&R
