"Satan is clinging to our sexual organs"

Sometimes I truly wonder what the heck is going on in this country. I don't know what's most horrifying...Rev. Moon's cave man opinion of women? The fact that millions of people believe and practice this nut case's prescriptions? The huge sums of money he gives our right wingers (including George W. Bu$h)? The money his ministers of lunacy get from our tax dollars?

Rev. Moon's Conjugal Visitations

We all know the Religious Reich wants to tell us what we can't do in the bedroom, but no one asks what they want us to do instead.

A few excerpts of Rev. CaveMan Moon's utter brilliance:

  • "After the act of love," read the instructions from the Rev. Moon's conservative Family Federation, "both spouses should wipe their sexual areas with the Holy Handkerchief. Hang the handkerchief[s] to dry naturally and keep them eternally. They must be kept individually labeled and should never be laundered and mixed up."
  • Women are a "line of prostitutes," who should be punished for selfishness. "The concave organ [vagina] should be sealed with concrete."
  • "The women are the problem in history," he said in 2004. "Women who don't want to have children should cut away their breasts, bottoms and love organ because the purpose for those was first for the children. If they don't fulfill that purpose, then they are not needed."
  • "Woman's sexual organ is like the open mouth of a snake filled with poison," he said in 1996.
  • The goal of getting involved in politics and social services, say his clerics, is to cleanse Satan from humanity's bloodline. Meanwhile, under George W. Bush's Healthy Marriage Initiative and abstinence-only grants, his pastors have won nearly $1 million in public funding.
  • Moon's abstinence-only education group Free Teens USA, is funded by the Department of Health and Human Services.
  • Jerry Falwell's still in business thanks to a $3.5 million bailout from Moon in 1995. Or Tim LaHaye of the Council For National Policy, who took money to serve on the board of a group rehabilitating Moon's image, once wrote a letter addressing Moon as "the Master."

Keep in mind that this loonbag's reach isn't limited: "Moon, the first President Bush said, is "the man with the vision" whose newspaper "restores sanity to Washington."
