Methodist Church’s First Drag Queen Pastor: ‘God Is Nothing’; Beware "PRIDE"

Methodist Church’s First Drag Queen Pastor: ‘God Is Nothing’

In a new poem, a gender-bending minister for the nation’s third-largest denomination says that queerness is divine

"Last year, the United Methodist Church accepted Isaac Simmons, who regularly preaches dressed as a drag queen under the name Ms. Penny Cost, as a candidate for ordination. Since that time, Simmons, who serves as an associate pastor at Hope United Methodist Church in Bloomington, Illinois, has challenged basic theological concepts, projecting a worldview where divinity rests not in God but in queerness. 

"In a church preparing to split over LGBTQ issues, the drag queen pastor, who embraces queer theology while barely attempting to plaster on the basic tenets of Christian theology, has become a lightning rod. Conservatives argue that Simmons’ role as a celebrated figure among progressive Methodists proves the church has become so radically liberal as to forswear Christ. Progressives promote Simmons and invite him to preach in drag as a way to challenge the conservative position on sexuality that the denomination officially still takes. 

"The United Methodist Church was ready to split in 2020, but that has been postponed until 2024 because its quadrennial general conference was canceled due to COVID-19. The liberal wing will retain the denomination’s name and permit same-sex marriage while the conservatives will join a new denomination where same-sex marriage is forbidden.

"Simmons has published a new video of himself performing slam poetry in what may be his most provocative repudiation of traditional Christianity and embrace of queer spirituality.

“ 'God is nothing,” the self-described “dragavangelist” repeats throughout the poem, adding, “the Bible is nothing” and “religion is nothing.” In the end, he concludes God and the Bible are nothing “unless we wield it into something.' ”. . .

"If local parents don’t let boys play on little girls’ sports teams, the federal government will remove its support from their extracurricular activities, including after-school sports and other programs kids use to stay healthy, active, and engaged.

"If local parents don’t let boys into little girls’ bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers, then the feds will make sure the poorest children in their community don’t get the school-provided lunches American taxpayers pay for. As many as 30 million kids use these programs, meaning millions could go hungry.". . .

Why Do Democrats Hate Our Children?

 Deborah C. Tyler

"One of the most difficult psychological transitions is facing hatred of self or loved ones by significant people in our lives. The challenge of admitting when we are hated makes it difficult to take steps to protect the vulnerable from that hatred. The normal mind projects onto others the degree of acceptance and respect that it naturally grants to others. The healthy mind must learn through unhappy experience when mutual acceptance and respect are absent. Therefore, it has been hard to admit that over time Democrats have succumbed to beliefs and policies based on hatred of us and our children.

"Why do Democrats advance policies that inflict death and psychological debasement on American children? Democrats hate America's children -- yours, not theirs -- because evil hates innocence, because they follow a climate cult that promotes human sacrifice, because they fear the children who come through us will be resistant to political subjugation. We must face the purpose of Democrat hate, and grasp its spiritual causation, if we are to introduce vital remedies to protect our children.

"Nancy Pelosi venerates the murder of viable babies as, “Sacred ground to me.” How can we deny that Democrats passion for perinatal infanticide amounts to hatred

"Biden's FDA shuttered a vital baby formula plant in February with no plan to reopen. Even the Democrat propaganda machine found no evidence the plant needed to be shut down. Nevertheless, Democrats are stockpiling formula for their favorite children -- post-American replacement babies -- while blocking production for yours.". . .

Sick parents conspire with a Dallas gay bar to sexualize children

Male transvestites danced provocatively in front of children of all ages, while parents and guardians cheered the perverts on, handing their little ones dollar bills to tip the “performers”. At one point, the degenerates in drag brought children onto the stage, coaching them to mimic the  hyper-sexualized and homosecual strut of a man in drag. Of course, this event was met with shock and revulsion. Texas state legislator, Bryan Slaton, referred to parents who expose their children to this sort of sexual deviancy as “perverted adults” and “obsessed with sexualizing young children.” He pledged to introduce legislation to safeguard children from the societal acceptance of debauchery, even when their parents abdicate that sacred responsibility.

California's Homelessness Magnates

 Ann Coulter

Tom Wolf, a formerly homeless drug addict, said that, thanks to all of San Francisco's giveaways, he was able to spend his entire general assistance payment on heroin. Which San Francisco also helps out with, giving away 6 million free needles to drug addicts every year. That's more than New York City dispenses -- with a population 10 times larger.

"Well, that didn't last long. Chesa Boudin, the "progressive" district attorney of San Francisco, was recalled in a landslide election on Tuesday. Evidently, even that city's progressive voters finally got tired of replacing their car windshields. (On the upside, once out of office, Boudin can keep prosecuting as many criminals as he did while in office.) 

"Quiz for Republicans: 

"In a shocking upset, the most liberal city in the nation just voted to recall a pro-criminal D.A. Q: Should you be dedicating your time to: --

 Ukraine -- 

Tax cuts -- 

Abortion --

 Crime [Sen. Lindsey Graham frantically waving his hand: UKRAINE!]

" Crime is primarily a state and local issue, but there are some things the federal government can do. How about auditing the "homelessness" industry for fraud, graft and corruption? (And the drug rehab industry, while you're at it.) In the last decade, homeless "advocacy" seems to have displaced Hollywood as the most well-compensated and glamorous industry in California. 

"Michael Shellenberger's 2021 book, "San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities" details how progressives are foisting drug-addicted mental patients on an unsuspecting public. The problem is less the homeless -- the drug-addicted mental patients you will always have with you -- and more the well-healed liberals getting rich off the homelessness racket. 

>He begins by quoting all manner of homeless "advocates" -- i.e., people who make money off of homelessness -- such as Dr. Margot Kushel of the University of California-San Francisco (UCSF), who insists that homelessness has NOTHING to do with drugs or mental illness. "We've always known," Kushel said, "that most homelessness is a result, pure and simple, of poverty." 

"A lot of valuable information comes from sentences that begin with "we've always known."

"Convinced of the truth of this preposterous maxim, San Francisco has been doling out billions of dollars to solve homelessness, by providing the homeless -- or as we are now commanded to call them, "our unhoused neighbors" -- with shelter, food and massive cash payments.

"Also free needles! Because homelessness is just a matter of being poor, as "we've always known.' ". . .

Press sec Karine Jean-Pierre has entered the Twilight Zone

 Thomas Lifson  "New Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre yesterday ignored the First Law of Holes and kept on digging.  It's been a rough start for the Psaki successor, reading from notes rather than spontaneously answering questions, and cutting off briefings and walking out as reporters continue to shout questions.

"But yesterday, trying to defend the miserable mismanagement of the economy, she fully escaped the bounds of reality and entered what must be the Twilight Zone.  Precisely nobody will believe this:

What we're trying to say, what I'm trying to say to you, is that the economy is in a better place than it has been historically.

"Yet she said it:

Jimmy Kimmel, meet Joe Biden

 

Biden’s Senility Takes Center-Stage on Jimmy Kimmel, His Political Excuse-Making Was Worse  "Joe Biden went on Jimmy Kimmel on Wednesday night. In typical fashion, he did nothing to help his prospects, ranting against the Supreme Court on the same day it was revealed a deranged liberal tried to assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

"Here’s what my colleague Nick Arama had to say about that.

On a day including an assassination attempt against Justice Brett Kavanaugh and vile tweets directed at his family, you would think Biden might try to present a unifying, calming presence. No such luck. Biden didn’t even bring it up or condemn it, and Kimmel never asked about it. Indeed, Biden attacked the draft decision of the Supreme Court calling it “ridiculous.” He whipped up more anger against the Court and indicated that he would try to get around the decision.

"But as I’ve shared before, the new rules on incitement and rhetoric don’t apply to the left. Thus, Biden will never be questioned for continuing to stoke irrational hate over a decision that might make it a little bit tougher to kill babies in the womb. The immorality on display is stunning.

"And you know what else is stunning? Just how senile Joe Biden is. I mean, that’s not the main reason I’m posting this clip for discussion, but how can you ignore how bad this is?". . .

Biden’s Approval Rating Even Worse Than Trump’s Despite Constant Media Fawning

That’s also a record high for a president who is propped up by the propaganda press daily as a “healing” leader who deserves no blame for the nation’s border crisis, skyrocketing inflation, nearly $5 per gallon gas price average, baby formula shortage, supply-chain crisis, fatal Afghanistan withdrawal, and more. 

Shapiro: There’s something wrong with a White House that puts Biden on Kimmel and McConaughey in the press room

Jimmy Kimmel did not ask Joe Biden about the Democrat terrorist who showed up at the home of a Supreme Court Justice with a gun to murder him after Democrats encouraged people to harass the justices at their homes. Biden didn't even bother to bring it up to call for peace.

. . . “It’s all screwed up,” Kimmel commented concerning progressives being unable to implement their leftist agenda.

Well, it is screwed up,” Biden affirmed. “But we are only a few votes away from being able to straighten it out.”

"Kimmel commented that many of the nation’s problems could be blamed on a “death star pumping false information into our brains.”

"Biden summed up the interview by tellingly replying, “Fox, right?”

Biden takes shot at Trump and Republicans on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’

He went on to say that the GOP has undergone “a radical shift” since Trump was elected, moving “hard right,” and its members often vote against what many call “common-sense” gun control because they’re afraid of being voted out of office.

“This is not your father’s Republican Party,” Biden said. “This is a MAGA party, a very different Republican Party and you find people who are worried, I believe, that if they vote for rational gun policy, they’re gonna be primaried and they’re going to lose in a hard-right Republican primary.”

He said, however, that the American people must in fact make gun control a voting issue in order to pass the reform measures that will likely die in the current Senate.

 Biden Glitched so Badly During His Interview That Jimmy Kimmel Had to Cut to a Commercial  

“Look how the press has changed. Look how the press is it has changed,” Biden said, before he started making up words. ” I know you get—you overstand [sic] it. You don’t just understand it, you overstand. But here’s the deal. One of the things is that it’s very difficult now, to have a… even… with notable exceptions, even a really good reporters, they have to get number clicks on… on… nightly news. So instead of asking the question, anyway, it just, everything gets… gets sensationalized… in ways… but I’m convinced we can get through this. We have to get through it. And one of the things, look—”

“I’m going to take a break,” Kimmel interrupted, clearly seeing Biden was glitching and wasn’t able to complete a coherent idea. “and then we’ll talk a little bit more.”

Censure Chuck Schumer: The New Joe McCarthy

In the wake of the arrest of Nicholas John Roske for the attempted murder of Kavanaugh, Schumer’s blatant call that Kavanaugh “will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions” is nothing if not a call for censure by his Senate colleagues.

Der Schumerglower

 The American Spectator  ". . .The question now is obvious: Will the United States Senate punish Schumer for his open incitement of violence?

"Specifically, when will the Senate censure Chuck Schumer?

"There is one particular moment in Senate history that should be recalled here — the censure in 1954 of Wisconsin Republican Sen. Joe McCarthy.

"Recall that in the early 1950s, McCarthy was investigating communists in the U.S. government. But a legitimate investigation went out of control, with McCarthy’s Senate colleagues believing that McCarthy had allowed his political power and the headlines to go to his head. In short, they believed McCarthy should be censured.

"Over at the National Constitution Center is the tale of what happened:

By the summer of 1954, the Senate decided to take action against McCarthy. On July 30, 1954, Ralph Flanders, a Republican, introduced a censure motion that his conduct as chairman of the Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations was “contrary to senatorial traditions.”

McCarthy verbally abused some of his colleagues during hearings that started in August. The Senate then reconvened in a lame-duck session after the November election to consider two charges. And McCarthy again attacked committee members who leveled the challenges. But Republican Arthur Watkins of Utah, who led the selected committee, spoke about how McCarthy violated the Senate’s dignity.

On December 2, 1954, the Senate voted on a motion that said that McCarthy “acted contrary to senatorial ethics and tended to bring the Senate into dishonor and disrepute, to obstruct the constitutional processes of the Senate, and to impair its dignity; and such conduct is hereby condemned.” The motion passed by a 67-22 vote.". . .

A Disturbing Poll in the Aftermath of the Attempted Assassination of Brett Kavanaugh

 PJ Media

"The attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh should have universally shocked Americans. It seems that, out of basic human decency, people should have a real problem with resorting to violence and killing over differences in opinion on public policy, regardless of what side of the aisle they’re on.

"Americans come together in the aftermath of tragedies such as mass shootings, natural disasters, and other highly publicized events that leave families shattered. Yet, people apparently have different attitudes about political assassinations.

"According to a recently released poll, nearly half of male Democrats under the age of 50 (44 %) say it’s acceptable to assassinate a politician “who is harming the country or our democracy,” the highest percentage of any age/gender/party demographic.

Boudin out; now what about Gascon?

What will happen now that voters kicked out Chesa?

So where's Chesa Boudin going now after having been booted from his disastrous gig as San Francisco's District Attorney?

My bet's academia — sooner or later — where, like his highly educated radical clansmen, he can continue the modern American academy's "progressive" mission of infecting the young minds of America's future civic elites (i.e., its future school teachers, university professors, social scientists, journalists, politicians, bureaucrats, statesmen, corporate CEOs, financiers, lawyers, doctors, and culturally revisionist aristocrats in general).

I mean, after all, who else would have him?

 The recall of San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin demands a rethinking of the "progressive prosecutor" brand.   . . ."Sending the most dangerous and chronic lawbreakers to prison so that they cannot continue to threaten the public will always be part of a prosecutor's job, but a broader toolbox and vision are needed to deliver individually tailored justice to maximize the use of public resources. If we pigeonhole the performance of the vital government function of prosecution as either progressive or conservative, it obscures the truth that enforcing the law and balancing safety and justice are moral and practical imperatives, rather than ideological crusades. The recall in San Francisco is over, but a holistic, data-driven approach to prosecution is too important to forget." 

Law And Order Wins: Boudin Out And More

However, this will almost certainly not be the last DA recall election in the Golden State. Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón is facing a similar situation after repeated criticism of light sentencing for dangerous criminals. Organizers say they already have more than half a million signatures and need roughly an additional 60,000 before July 6. Boudin’s ousting could well be the impetus Gascón’s detractors require.
