Jesus is stated to have visited the Temple in Jerusalem, Herod's Temple, at which the courtyard is described as being filled with livestock and the tables of the money changers, who changed the standard Greek and Roman money for Jewish and Tyrian money, which were the only coinage that could be used in Temple ceremonies. According to the Gospels, Jesus took offense to this (extorting profit from the people to hear the word of God), and so, creating a whip from some cords, drives out the money changers, and turns over their tables, and those of the people selling doves Matthew[21:13] And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.21:14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.21:15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased, Jesus said, "Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give." (Matthew 10:8).
We have been detailing how the Right-Wing lunatic radio station in Paducah is propogandizing Western Kentucky voters by the means of a church. Our main point is that such hate-filled folks with hate-filled rhetoric have no business in a church. Well, lets listen to some of the hate played today by WKYX-WKYQ:
In a move that is characteristic for the Republicans in Western Kentucky, Exxon Ed Whitfield is taking the cowardly road. Instead of facing potential opponents and angry mobs bent on stifling discussion as Democrats all over country have Whitfield is hosting a "Tele Townhall" meeting. This sounds mysteriously like the "Information Meeting" that the far-right loons on the radio here will be holding in a church to propogandize Western Kentucky voters of whom many trust religous institutions.
I wrote this diary after hearing a hate-filled misleading ad on WKYX-WKYQ. Already using a church to propogandize the masses in Western Kentucky, they had also decided to play blantantly false ads about the healthcare bill from this site. That is when I realized the people at this station would sink as low into the abyss as possible to preserve profits over people.
We have detailed both here and here about how a far-right radio station owned by Bristol Broadcasting is holding a propoganda meeting in a church. They feature a panel of "knowledgable people" including a right-wing reporter, and a Doctor who is a huge contributor to Republicans who will present far-right-wing talking points as fact and will attempt to propogandize religous folks in Western Kentucky.
Want to know the state of things in Western Kentucky? We have a very right-wing radio station which plays lunatics such as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck during the day. Their views are broadcast daily, and since Republicans own the airwaves and the printed news around here go uncontested in successfully propogandizing the masses.
