Have you ever wondered what the “populist” Occupy Wall Street thinks of Christianity? It seems videographer Benny Johnson wanted to find out by setting up a nativity scene in the middle of the OWS DC camp. Let’s just say the reactions were mixed. Read more and watch the video from The Blaze below.
The response from the Occupiers was diverse. ”This ain’t a church, man,” one guy said. Another protester could be heard asking, ”Is that legal?” Yet another person, clearly responding to him said, ”No check — go check.”
Early on in the clip, a man with a bandanna covering his face, has a strong reaction as he addresses the actors in the nativity (starts around the :40 mark).
“I wouldn’t get up here and start preaching Islam to people.” he said. “I wouldn‘t because it’s not my place. It’s not your place either.”
Later, the same guy appears again and explains why he’s opposed. ”I’m a follower of Islam. I just think it’s in bad taste,” he explains. “The atrocities of the Christian faith…ravish humanity.”The response from the Occupiers was diverse. ”This ain’t a church, man,” one guy said.

During a visit to America in 1987, the Soviet Union’s Prime Minister Mikhail Gorbachev made the remark to President Reagan (and I paraphrase), “If those are slums, I’ll take ten of those.” This was testament about America’s greatness. It’s incredibly that a superpower leader (and sworn enemy) envied our poor to such an extent that he wanted them in his country, it’s usually the opposite. We’re not in the 1980′s anymore, but I have a feeling that Gorbachev would say the same thing he did then, today.
Why? Just take a look at the chart below…
I’m not showing you this information to make a point that America’s poor don’t need our help or shouldn’t be served. Because they do and we should help. I’m showing you this information to prove once again that despite all of America’s faults we live in the greatest country in the world. After all, our poor are envied.
A special thanks for TPPF for forwarding this information to me.
I’m sorry I haven’t been making more post lately, but I’m going to try and redeem myself by doing a TBF. Next week you should see more post too. Anyways, this week we are highlighting David Bellow’s blog, Texas Conservative News. His most recent post analyzes Gov. Perry’s controversial “War on Religion” TV ad. So how will it play with voters? You can find out by reading below…
Texas Governor Rick Perry has a new ad that will be hitting the airwaves in Iowa. The ad is titled “Strong.” This ad goes on the attack against President Obama. It is one of the most aggressive ads of the Presidential Primary Election.
Rick Perry has a very clear message in ad: “I’ll End Obama’s War on Religion and I’ll Fight against Liberal Attacks on our Religious Heritage”
