Extreme

 

Extremism

Leads to extremism

Leads to bloodshed

It’s what I’ve always said

My bleeding heart bears witness as my sacred faith runs red.

I deplore your holy bloodbath

Your godly ‘Boogaloo’

Your Great Replacement ‘race war’ 'neath the raised red white and blue.

 

Rick Joyner, pastor-prophet

Of the bright and Morningstar

Says, “True Christians! Buy up weapons for the coming civil war.

Push back against the evil

Til the culture war is won,”

Will Rick’s children face their father down the wrong end of a gun?

 

Mario Murillo,

that mighty man of God

Says, “Be a wartime pastor now, and never mind the blood.”

The ACL says violence

might be needed down the path

If our country is to have a hope of dodging godly wrath.

 

A wise man said that kindness

Matters more than right or pride

I hate the polarization, I’m not cool with genocide

The silence after violence is the loudest dark to see

Is there no mercy to be had

For mothers left bereaved.

 

Take heed of early whispers

Or you’ll have to hear the screams

When an AR15 weapon murders little children’s dreams

If Jesus shed his blood for us

For human angst and sin

Is His blood too diluted to drown out the bloody din?

 

But that’s a shit hole country

Where children fear to play

Australia please listen, we are not so far away.

We have these “declarations”

Canberra or Uluru

I’d crawl and clamber up the rock if it was not taboo

 

And shout out from the top across this blood-soaked, sunburnt land

Treaty!

Treaty!

Treaty!

And on mining, place a ban

I would stop the coal erosion

And burn the Midnight Oil

Protect those ancient, sacred places

No longer to despoil

 

Extremists are not haters

They’re just lovers in extreme

Hitler, Mao and ISIS used the people’s sacred dreams

They’re love-bombed, then love-bonded

On the path to holy war

They march right into killing fields they never even saw.

 

Brother, sister, comrade

Such camaraderie

Identity, belonging offered at the point of need

But not so much for others, the

Apostate, infidel

Dehumanize,

then euthanize

The worthless damned to hell.

 

The waters are rising

People’s lives drowning

Bushfires howling

Coral reefs bleaching

People are hurting

 

But to be a proper Christian, to truly take my place

I must know that climate’s just a ploy by lizard clones from space

Body count not high enough?

We need more force and strife

To make the nation great, but tell me, 

 

how is that pro-life?

 

It’s sad I’m not in step with you

I’m clearly just deceived

I think too much and say too much

I should not be believed.

I have too many questions, so you must be partly right

Cause I’m drowning in opinions and they keep me up at night.

 

I didn’t vote the right way

And I didn’t like your meme

I guess the real problem is that I am too 

 

Extreme.

 

 

 

 

Are prominent evangelical leaders *really* dragging Christianity towards armed conflict and bloodshed, or am I just over-reacting?

 

What do you make of this?
