Blend-o-licious endorsements...



The Christian Civic League of Maine's Mike Hein calls Pam's House Blend:
"a leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy."

He is "praying that Pam Spaulding will "turn away from her wicked and sinful promotion of homosexual behavior." (CCLM's web site, 10/15/07)


Ex-gay "Christian" activist James Hartline on Pam:
"I have been mocked over and over again by ungodly and unprincipled anti-christian lesbians."
(from "Six Years In Sodom: From The Journal Of James Hartline," 9/4/2006, written from the "homosexual stronghold" of Hillcrest in San Diego).

"Pam is a 'twisted lesbian sister' and an 'embittered lesbian' of the 'self-imposed gutteral experiences of the gay ghetto.'" -- 9/5/2008



Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth Against Homosexuality heartily endorses the Blend, calling Pam:

A "vicious anti-Christian lesbian activist."
(Concerned Women for America's radio show [9:15], 1/25/07)

"A nutty lesbian blogger."
(MassResistance radio show [16:25], 2/3/07)


Pam's House Blend always seems to find these sick f*cks. The area of the country she is in? The home state of her wife? I know, they are everywhere. Pam just does such a great job of bringing them out into the light.

Christian Civic League of Maine endorses the Blend

by: Pam Spaulding

Mon Oct 15, 2007 at 20:30:00 PM EDT


Can a fundie endorsement get any better than this? The folks at the Christian Civic League of Maine appear to read the Blend with some regularity. 

I had a couple of posts up (Blender Herb pointed me to CCLM's activities, see my links below) about the sad anti-gay shenanigans and proselytizing going on up there. It's tough times for the religious right, as Maine has instituted broad anti-discrimination measures and domestic partnerships. They simply aren't getting the traction they'd like.

Pam's House Blend is a "leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy," according to Mike Hein. The pro-sodomy site averages 110,000 hits per month, making it one of the most widely read left-wing political blogs in the United States.

Earlier this month, Spaulding, herself a Duke University Employee, questioned League reporter Mike Hein's credibility for his plan to cover Soulforce's rally at the Statehouse in Augusta, calling his news brief "laughable". Hein said he is praying that Pam Spaulding will "turn away from her wicked and sinful promotion of homosexual behavior and accept Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior."
The article also mentions that I called CCLM's Mike Heath the "Peter LaBarbera of New England," seeing that as a high compliment because he has called The Peter a "hero" on Heath's radio program/podcast, Faith Matters in Maine.

I really don't get the whole "pro-sodomy" hoohah. Is he claiming heterosexuals do not engage in sodomy, and only engage in procreative sex? Or is it AOK for het sodomy but same-sex sodomy is out?

And what about this whole "radical transgender advocacy"? Is there some non-radical, mainstream T advocacy going on that I'm unaware of that passes muster with the CCLM?

In honor of my endorsement, Melissa of Shakesville created this graphic for her post, One-Stop Sodomy Shopping:

Congratulations!
I noticed that they so idealize The Peter that they misspelled his last name (didn't cap the 'B').

They must not read the Blend that often,
  or they don't care about you.  They just want you to stop the promotion of homosexual behavior.  So much for love the sinner but hate the sin.

 

If I make sense? it was quite by accident.


Do I have to be pro-sodomy
to be a wicked lesbian activist?

Honestly, i've been so busy at work lately that i haven't met my quarterly sodomy goals...

Oops, TMI!


But wait, there's more!

LOL

Oh my gosh, I can't stop laughing.

 Best...

Snark...

Ever!

Congrats

Hey Pam, Congrats on the endorsement from the Maine Chrisitan Civic League.  You're now famous in my home state.  Fortunately for all of us, they truly are a bunch of losers...

 



Pam is the best!

Hands down...you tell it like it is...and the truth is not always pretty.

But Pam always comes through.

About time you get some recognition from some of the fundies that you expose in their hypocrasy!

YOU ROCK PAM!!! 



Speaking of sodomy, go to any straight bar and you'll see threesomes:

2 girls and a guy.  The guy's the balony in the sandwich and as he fake-sodomizes one woman, the other fake-sodomizes him.  This dancing/fake-sodomy is HUGE among straight folks and has been for years.

 



more speaking of sodomy.
sodomy is an interesting term, because few are willing to define it.  ask an Anti-Sodomite For Christ at the next protest what exactly they include in the term, and whether it includes the activities of lesbians or heterosexuals.  The just stand back and enjoy the show.  Be sure to have a spittle guard handy.

And yet
somehow I missed that.  :^(
I did dance a very close and sexy dance in a very crowded club with a woman that I used to work with for the benefit of her husband.  Not being homophobic is FUN, I wish these fundies would realize that. 

My America includes LGBT families.

[ Parent ]
Just Jealous
They're just jealous because they probably get nowhere near the audience that Pam has.

*sniff*

A "leading source of radical homosexual propganda"?

 *sniff* I'm, I'm just so...proud!



somebody's got to do it

"leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy,"

Well somebody has got to do it.

Thanks for having one of the most honest places around. 



actually they got something a bit wrong
there's nothing radical about the news analysis and advocacy found here.  it is quite mainstream and represents to position of most non-christianists.

Wow!!!! I have a fan!

"...and radical transgender advocacy,"

He must be reading my stuff.  I now feel so adequate.

>^..^<

Hey Kat,
While you take credit for the radical trans advocacy, I will take at least partial credit for the anti-Christian "bigotry". LMAO! And like the others here, I am so very proud of Pam and the entire Blend crowd. This is like winning an Oscar, LOL!

A society without religion is like a maniac without a chainsaw.

[ Parent ]
Seriously...

"I am so very proud of Pam and the entire Blend crowd."

As am I.

Congrats and Thanks!
For bestowing this honor upon me I want to thank God Jesus the Flying Spaghetti Monster, my accepting (ergo demon worshipping) parents, and all of th wonderful Blenders.  Now where's that hot steaming sodomy I ordered?

Pam, if you've got them...
...pissed off you must be doing something right!  Keep up the good work... :)

Go Pam!

You're moving up in the world. It is amazing how dedication, common sense, and a good sense of equality can make these Christian Terrorists quake in their boots.

But if you show up on Fred Phelps' radar, you HAVE to throw a party.

The League and MassResistance

What really pisses these people off is that Pam's Blend ends up on peoples "favorites" list because it is a well written and informative Blog.  In the morning when I turn on the computer I go to CNN News, the Huffington blog, the local news station and then Pam's Blend.  Later in the day I do a tour of the fundie sites to see what's cookin with the far right.  What must be so frustrating for these people is to watch gay marriage and civil unions become accepted as the norm here in NE while they become further isolated and ignored.  They are a victim of their own venom.  They continue to harp on how gay marriage and gay rights will destroy traditional marriage while the people here see Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire have some of the lowest divorce rates in the country.  Many people now have gay families living in their towns and sending kids to their schools. Many children have friends whose parents are gay. The anti gay marriage groups have been running around the farm yard so long yelling the "sky is falling" that more and more people here are ignoring them.  Camenker, Contrada, Heath, Hein, and the rest of the the New England "LaBarberas" are becoming isolated and ignored by the main stream population. They are truly a pitiful bunch. Keep up the great work Pam.  I don't know how you do it.  You must have a clock with 40 hours a day on it.



Indeed

They are choking on their own hateful bile as fake Christians. I pour over many media sources on a daily basis, from many perspectives. I have been living in Maine for 3 years; and I have NEVER ONCE heard of this guy or his group in any local Maine media, EVER. If it wasn't for PHB, I wouldn't even know they exist. It's not a sign of media censorship by any means considering the other issues that get reported on here; it is proof of his complete insignificance!

Congrats, Pam!

Agreed.
I get up a half hour early every morning just to see what Pam and Melissa over in Shakesland have been up to.  Also to check on some news.  I think these fringe groups greatest fears are being realized:  People are seeing that society will not be destroyed by allowing lesbians and gays to marry.  People are seeing just how normal our lives are compared to theirs.  This is what the wingnuts didn't want.  Thanks PAM!!!  ALso congratulations about the pro sodomy thing.

So! A new endorsement for the right side of the homepage?

We certainly hope so.  :P

Pro Sodomy as opposed to Amateur Sodomy?

But seriously, there's some rabbinical commentary on the story of Sodom that says their sin was being inhospitable to strangers.

It has been said that in Sodom, the penalty for helping strangers was death.

There's a story about a woman who went to the well and saw another woman there who looked very pale. When asked about her condition, the pale woman said her family had no food and were preparing to die. The next day, the first woman brought a jar full of grain and exchanged it for the pale woman's empty water jar. This went on until her aid was discovered, and she was killed for helping the pale woman.

And in the Bible itself, the prophet Ezekiel:

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.

- Ezekiel 16:49

Hmm.... pride? Fulness of bread? Abundance of idleness? Not helping the poor and needy? Haughty?

Maybe that's the real sodomy.

Amen to that, Sister Cindi.

Cind, I can't link with your link.

Got another?

It's been too long since I've seen someone use the words "Rabbinical commentary."  It's a soothing, reassuring phrase bespeaking knowledge.  Comment away!

My Judaism professor in college said you have to get down into the Hebrew to define Sodomy, and that what the author (J, I think) was most concerned with sexually (aside from not helping starving people, etc.) was orgies.  Well, a lot of straight folks are in trouble there too, as Holly said.  The guy sandwich on gal bread is very popular.

Link woes

Pam's site seemed to add some text to the end of the link. Remove the %C2%A0 from the end and it should work.

I'll try pasting the link again here:

Cool Radicals!
Oooh, you wicked radical!  How divine.  You know, in some parts of New England, "wicked" means "cool."  I think you're Pam, the Cool Radical.

Congratulations Pam!
I've stumbled upon your site a few months ago and THIS is where I go to get the LGBT news. I've always loved your site. The Civic League's "endorsment" is nothing less than spectacular.

Sind you are so popular, do you need a prize co-ordinator now? Since Yahoo disbanded the discussion boards, I've got a load of toaster ovens that I need to give away.

Congratulations!!

Pam,

Kudos for being such a threat to Christianist society.  Obviously, the harsh words against you mean that your sharp, biting and on target commentary is hitting a bit too close to home.  Keep up the good work! :)

And The Winner Is...

Congratulations Pam! How do you do it? What's your secret? I mean, all these awards you win from all these Christian organizations – you must have Jesus' home phone number or something, to have all these Christian organization love you so much and concern themselves with the goings on at the blend. You're almost as important to them as the J-man Himself.

 

Congratulations again Pam and Blend. Keep up the excellent work!



JC is our PLAS!! (jesus christ is our personal lord and savior)
there, we said it.  so now, FINALLY, we get to go out and do whatever we want, right?

Love you Pam!

Pam,

I have to tell you that I have been (and will continue to be) a lurker on your site. I want you to know that you are a true hero in my eyes for many reasons. I mostly appreciate the way you can turn something hateful into parody and help us all feel better about it in the end (no pun intended).

I honestly used to get so worked up reading about news stories and updates on other sites, but since I have found you and your wonderful blog, I do not have even half of the stress and turmoil. You have a gift with the way you can turn things around. Your quick wit and sharp mind, holding their feet to the fire is something that I just dont see anywhere else. Topics and stories that would normally have made my blood boil, give me heartburn, or leave me feeling sad through the day are now laughable.

I really appreciate your comments and the way you force things to be read TRUTHFULLY, without any smoke screens and without any agenda beyond being very very frank.

It is this frankness that the fundies feel threatened with. They fear your super "Storm of X-MEN" powers to lift the fog and allow things to be seen as they really are. Please dont ever stop. I admire you tremendously.

~A friend in Virginia.



You know, with enemes like this...

who needs friends?

The humorless and irony impared are the best advertisement for those who are not... and it's rather difficult to escape the other philosophical, political and factual distinctions between the two camps. Aside from the extra loose pants and skirts, to allow room for the poker handles.

BTW - I know there are quite a few gay christian evangelicals - so Finding Jesus doen't seem to preclude Sodomy.

But then, I've known quite a few Evangelicals. I don't think it's the actual painful rectal violation they object to.

It's the "relax and enjoy it" part.
