An Event to Inspire.
I wanted to comment on this even though it’s not frontpage, anymore.

Warrior inspiration?
A Haggard castration and crosshanging would do the trick. It would keep me pumped for months.
It’s not enough punishment that this pervert has been ousted. He should be castrated and then nailed to a cross in his own church this next Sunday morning. Anybody who truly believed in a Creator would want this, too.
Still professing to be a deeply devoted religious man — he never, ever was. He’s been a reprobate, degenerate and thief his whole life. Never anything else. Not by his assembly’s illusory standard of Original Sin, anyhow.
Even faced with the facts of the accusations, he kept refining his mea culpa until he could disappear. I mean, you figure a devoted religious man, preaching that every human is sinner, would, once caught in beaucoup bundle of sins, immediately admit his sins and ask for forgiveness and support. Instead he and his wife are going to disappear for a while. How nice. Of course, he can afford to run and hide after years of swindling everyone. He should be indicted at no less a level than Ken Lay and all the other corporate whoredogs.
But, no, he has a letter written and read by others and the sheople get up and applaud it afterwards. What a slap in the face to these people who entrusted him so much; what a slap of self-disrespect they level upon themselves. It’s indecent and they are brainwashed to believe otherwise.
Sure, this is really what God wants. He Creates us as Beings who have free will and the ability to judge. But, “Hey, while you are down there, to show your appreciation and reverence for Me, don’t use it. And whenever someone’s wants to violate the worth of your own Creation, let them. Have fun.” Organized religion is a fraud to weaken people to have them make an excuse out of their lives rather than an example of empowerment.
How funny that James Dobson resigned from the larger committee of perversionists who agreed to counsel Haggard because he said it would take too many years to cure Teddy Boy’s ills and he didn’t have the time to devote. What really should be said, is that there’s not enough time in all the remaining clock of this World’s existence to cure the ills of all those who have devoted their lives to organized religion over the past 20 plus centuries. How can I say such things? God. He’s right here next to me. Go ahead, ask Him.
Hey, Man…get out of there. Look, God, stay out of my Power Bars. You’ve had enough today. I know You supply me with my incredible, unflappable belief and confidence, but You don’t exactly pay any of my bills when You come around here hanging out.
Sorry about that. He gets carried away with all the good tasty food down here when He visits. Those little dry, cracker wafers started out as joke but they didn’t believe He had a sense of humor, so some other guy in a robe (another joke) put them permanently on the menu.
So, go ahead, ask Him. Ask God how it is I can say what I say.

I turned my back on “churchianity” not that long ago. The rules of men interfere with faith all too often. Faith is, by its nature a personal thing, and one preching from a pulpit cannot lead MY faith. Oh, they might inspire, but my faith is still mine, and my relationship with God is none of their business.
Too often we see people like this Haggard fellow, and it destroys our faith. “How could God let this happen,” is often heard. Perhaps to show just how corrupt mankind truly is. You, Warrior know that I don’t ask “why me” any longer. When I was molested as a child, it was horrible. But the fact that I came through it and didn’t use that as an excuse to molest other kids is a great source of pride for me, and something I talk about with troubled kids.
Mr. Haggard should be made an example of, with the voices of his victims (not their faces) beign heard over and over.
Be well,
Sponge

Haggard should be castrated for all to see. I think it would make a good superbowl halftime show myself. Society needs more discipline and a halftime show castration would be a good start. Society is way to easy going on evil people.

I whole heartedly agree with the statement that organized religion is a fraud.
The whole idea that a person has to spend half of every given day packed into an undesized building being told what a horrible person they are just to be a good member of said religion is utterly rediculous. Likewise the idea that one has to convert others to said faith in order to be a true believer/follower is laughable.
This is just my opinion mind you but I don’t feel it should come down to how much good you can do for your church as a way of deciding if you’re a good Christian or Muslim or Jew or what have you. It should come down to hwo you carry yourself as a human and how you treat yourself and others.

More often religion has become a tool simply to manipulate week minded individuals.Gathering faith from fable has always been a scary thought.Warrior I’m glad that your one of the few who have the BALLS to touch upon this subject. Being raised Catholic,even at a young age of 10,it wasn’t hard to figure out that the Catholic church is the worlds biggest mafia.Yes,yes,yes,believe in a higher power, Buda, God,etc. Most of all believe in one self.With out yourself, you have nothing.Hey Mr. Warrior, I haven’t seen God in some time.Since he is right next to you. Could you please ask him if I should superset Biceps and Triceps? Or perhaps do them individually? Come to think of it, I think a couple of Detour bars are missing from my shelf as well. Just got more merchandise.Once again great quality,BOLD WARRIOR statements, definenetly worth the price.Thanks again Mr Warrior.

Hey everyone. Just a thank you for engaging the blog. Going to be expanding on this religion issue more very soon. It’s the number one crutch and hypocrisy in the World. Until I participated in conservative activism I never paid direct attention. It just blows me away how most everyone wants to have their cake and eat it, too. The want the World to be a certain way, and yet, they themselves behave in the exact opposite way in their own lives.
And, as you all hint at in your comments, look at the size of IT ALL. Millions and millions of people buy into and also buy into it that it is perfectly okay that you say one thing and do another. That is why moral relativity and political correctness are the greatest dangers we face. And, look, I am not a fatalist by any means. When I read what I write, I often think to myself, “Boy, Warrior, for a extremely positive guy and being self- motivated as you are, you write quite a bit about what seems like doom and gloom.” It’s not the real case. It’s just that those of us who see what is going on, need to be aware and not let things slide off our backs when we are faced with examples of this crap in our daily lives. At the least, we need to speak up and be bold about it. Face it, if you are bothered by the hypocrisy, you are going to an outsider. Everyone one is doing hypocrisy, today. So much more to get into…all of it is coming soon enough.
Leave you with this. You ever thought that rather than a man named Jesus dying for our sins, if he did exist, he died to set an example of strength and courage for us, that if he was God embodying a human body, that he was willing to die brutally as he did as a way of asking us “are you willing to suffer the same to show your faith in the believe of a creator, show your reverence for how greatly you are created. Just how far will you go to live up to the incredible potential I endowed you with.” What a joke that they say He died for our sins — He died the way He did to say, “do you believe THIS deeply that I Created you as great as I have and your goal is to strive throughout your life to fulfill the potential for perfect bred into you.”
God says superset triceps and biceps and do full ass-ground squats at the same time. 50-100 reps sets…

Surely not a “rather than” situation. I think you are right that everything Christ did in the Gospels was meant to set an example (whether the man existed or not). Further, I wonder at what you mean when you say Jesus “died for our sins”? As I always understood it, the evil (sins) of mankind was a curse we brought upon ourselves (all deeds having consequences), and the Christ Passover an (exemplary) act of sacrifice that mankind might be spared the wages of our own evil (presumably that the repentent then go on to glorify God in actualizing their greater, intended potential).
Sure, it seems that some so-called Christians view the Christ passover as nothing but a perpetual “get out of jail free” card, but I certainly hope that is not typical of the True Believers.
To go further, it looks like you are welcoming the condemnation of such lofty ideas (as expressed by previous commenters). Tossing out the baby Jesus with the hypocritical bathwater, as it were.

I believe in personal responsiblity. First and foremost in all things I am responsible for my life and how I live it. I also believe in the forgiveness of God and His righteous and forgiving nature. Many times we allow ourselves the excuse to act sinfully because we say “Hey, He’ll forgive us.” There comes a time when there is no more forgiveness. I happen to believe in the God of Israel (as taught in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, Original Hebrew texts). This doesn’t make me a brain washed sheep. True Godlyness is conservative in nature and teaches personal responsibilty and accountability. I can’t blame anyone for my actions, or lack of action. I agree with most if not all of what you have stated. Christ did not sanction sin in his death, he lived as an example of what we can be and should be. Perfect, with out sin or fault. We are to worship the creator not the creation, what we do with ourselves shows our reverence to our creator. Liberality in all its disguises (political correctness, appeasement and the acceptance of such) is never what we were meant to live. I do not use my faith as an excuse to live in liberality but to the contrary, as a guide to live a truely conservative life.

Warrior, “Sheople” = “Sheep + People”???
lmao Thats a great combo to describe this madness…
This is going to become one of the hottest blogs on the internet in 2007!!!
December 19th, 2006 at 11:06 am
Even though im an Athiest i agree with warrior totally on this, if there was a god he shore wouldnt want us worshipping him in the way the hipecritical religions are today. i always beleaved he just woulld have wanted us to do the right thing and listen to whats inside of us, be our true selves and not just follow others like sheep but take info in and question it untill we resolve our own beleaves.

If there was a man named Jesus who allowed himself to be nailed to a cross so that we could see how great we had the power to be, how much we could endure if we really tried, why not go just a little further back.
When a prostitute was to be stoned to death for working on the Sabbath Jesus saved her life. She was a prostitute and violator of Gods laws, lets not sugar coated, she was a criminal and immoral to boot. That is who Jesus saved, he saved a criminal, he saved the unclean, he saved the weakest and worst of us.
You want to see this man crucified and castrated because he didnt live up to the lofty morals he preached. He most certainly is a pervert, but you are bloodthirsty and sick. Simon Peter who walked with Jesus and witnessed his miracles, who had his feet washed by the master and drank of his blood and ate of his body only the night before - denied Jesus three times before the sun was even high enough for the cock to crow.
As for organized religion being a scam. Well yes, thats true - I know a buddhist who says no Organization who has lasted for over 200 years is anything but a beurocratic mess, and religious organizations go bad twice as fast. Still, remember that Jesus walked with the 12, and when they went to perform their miracles in his name they went in pairs. He talked to thousands, not just individuals.
Please dont think i am making excuses for Haggard, but perhaps he serves a purpose, perhaps God is reminding us that the people we see every sunday, the ones we revere and look up to, those are just men, God is the only show in town. Be careful that your dont deify anyone but God.
1. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me.
December 22nd, 2006 at 4:16 pm
AHHHMMMM, it bothered me Haggard caught doing a big no no automatically starts preaching about how he has accepted “responsibility” for his actions as Haggard mentoned several times in his speach. Haggard’s actions as an adult have always been his responsibility, acceptance of the responsibility goes as hand in hand as your next breath of air in your lungs being your responsibility (unless Warrior’s foot is holding your head under water with his size 14 foot for snatching a few power bars from the stash in his sock drawer).
How does accepting responsibilty publicy from actions that cannot be denied somehow mark the first giant step to making everthing better???
What??? So he is saying he didn’t use every exuse in the book to worm his way out of responsibility for his actions, and now he deserves a pat on the back???

Warrior…interesting view on Jesus’ death. My 2 cents???….I don’t think Jesus needed to be killed for our sins, as in “someone has to get their ass whooped”. I know Jesus died, but he happened to die as a result of what he was teaching. I think Jesus was the second Adam, a God/man mix. Basically God saw that mankind for the most part was failing to live up to his expectation, combined with the fact too, that the first God/man mix failed (Adam, Eve) failed. It was time for another test of the God/man mix (we are all hopefully destined to become). Well this God man (Jesus)mix performed 100%, therefore giving us all who believe like Jesus(ways) the keys to ever-lasting life. See I look at our brains as all hooked up to 1 human intelligence “software” program, Jesus was hooked into this too, but with the God-mind element added. If Jesus would have failed, this would have been problem for our eternity in the Heavenly realms. You don’t bring creation around having weak morals, principals….**you don’t bring it around being human, humanity’s ideals could not accomplish creation even with the technology to do so. If you have a God/man mix that is flawed, I just know in God’s place, there is no place for it, crap stays out of there!!!. Jesus died, sure, but he died because a lot of people did not like what he taugh. He died obeying the laws of the land. The law said he should die, he didn’t fight, and throw punches, run, and break the law. Remember what he said about rendering unto Caesar what is his (taxes), and to what is God’s his???? He believed in the laws ,and didn’t break then himself…..otherwise he would be a hypocrit. Jesus died for our sins??…….I think Jesus **happened** to die for them. BUT let’s too remeber Jesus did kick some butt in the temple, and was accused of drinking too much, hanging out with the wrong crowd, and dancing with the bride too much (at the wedding where he turned water into wine). So just remember Jesus was not a “wuzz”, or a bore either!!

I find it hilarious that you lambast Haggard for his failings as a religious leader when you have some weird sexual, S&M thing going on with Santa Claus.
What the hell is up with that?
January 3rd, 2007 at 1:45 am
Warrior,
I don’t know what to say.I’ve spoken to you many times over the years and we’ve talked about how all my sons enjoyed watching you over.You were even so kind as to send my youngest son some autographed photo’s. Now, I’m concerned because I am a Christian and I can speak of only what God has done for me in my life.Yes, I have the desire & the intestinal fortitude to conquer what I choose but God has blessed me with the ability.I had to learn from all the mistakes & trials I’ve been through & grow from them.Everything from the death of my 15 year old son, the loss of my job,house & car over the years just to name a few.But I never turned my back on Him and I have recovered everything and my life is wonderful.Did I make the comeback myself? Not really….I prayed & believed & I worked hard but God again blessed me.What Haggard did was horrible but he is human…granted he’s lost but to lump all Christians together is wrong.We’re all sinners saved by grace and to question Jesus’ death for other than what the bible states He died for isn’t right.
To mock Him eating your Power bars and hanging around is a shame.I expect more from you especially since it is God that gave you your talent for speaking and all the other endeavours
& accomplishments you’ve achieved over the years.Did you work hard for it? Yes….absolutely but it was God’s gift to you.We all have free will & you could’ve used those talents to do something else,something awful or evil but God knew you’d be able to reach millions and maybe,just maybe He was whispering in your ear & telling you which road to follow.Look at the millions of fans you’ve influenced and your catch phrase “Always Believe”.
You can rag on your former partner Sting & even HBK but I can tell you they are much happier now than they ever have been.I had the chance to sit & speak with HBK recently and also read his book. He’s sincere about his happiness and his salvation.
Not all of us Christians are like Mr.Haggard.We still listen to heavy metal and ride Harley’s and even have a beer now & then.We aren’t some cult of weirdo’s and pedophile homosexuals.
We’re good family people that enjoy helping others and doing what we can to make the world a better place.
January 5th, 2007 at 10:23 pm
I think we should send word to Warrior Via- Mail or post on his Blogs, I belive there should be another blog something else for us. Or even Perhaps some sort of Quiz or Trivia Section in which we can all take at our leisure however make each question with a time restraint so people cannot cheat their way up. nd re-sbmit earning a percentage who ever with the highest wins something… or turn it into a points thing a game of sorts and the winner at the end of every month or 6 months or whatever a type of Memior. ought to be sent out… just a suggestion i will be posting this on every blog…LOL.. Ideas responded are welcome

I personally do not follow any religion and I never will. It is a hypocritical way to brainwash children and harm the earth. Religion has killed more people than anything on this earth. There are 19 major world religions and thousands of factions underneath, all claiming their way is the correct way. They go so far as to kill people over it. In the broad perspective, religion does a lot more harm than good and I refuse to take part in any of the ignorant close-minded judgmental hypocrisy. People tell me all the time that I should go to church and find the lord and surround myself with “good people.” Well, guess what, I work in law enforcement and a lot of those people who attend church every Sunday are lifeless drug users and also sex offenders. It is such a joke, and the funny part is, they even dislike each other… Catholics, Protestants, Lutherans, Presbyterians, etc, etc, etc, etc, and on, and on, and on. I wasn’t born with enough middle fingers, I don’t need to choose a side.
January 16th, 2007 at 9:46 pm
I don’t much believe in organized religion either. I’m especially repulsed by people who prey upon people through it. Doing away with religion and religious authority is one less tool people can use to brain wash. Being an atheist, I don’t have to forgive if I don’t want to, and I certainly wouldn’t forgive some fool because he apologizes for manipulating people, making people do things because he’s convinced them it’s a divine mission they’d be punished for avoiding and promising gifts upon completion that he can’t deliver. That’s the problem with faith. That’s why I’m an atheist.
January 21st, 2007 at 10:12 pm
Wrestling fan since I was 4, conservative since I could think rationally. Glad to see you are still shaking the ropes Warrior, just different ropes now. Just wanted to mention that one of the biggest myths stated over and over is that religion has killed more people on earth than anything else. Religion isn’t even close to the amount of damage and death that has been caused by various forms of marxism, communism, and despotism. It is not possible for religion to be hypocritical, only the people who follow them. Jesus Christ is my savior. I try to model my life after his example but fail as all humans will. I hope that all people will establish a relationship with God but I know they will not. Not my problem. Have a good day and be nice until it is time to not be nice. (that is one of my failings, you know that turn the other cheek thing. But I am trying.)
