Fischer: America For Christians Only

February 20, 2012 by 23 Comments

Bryan Fischer continues his cavalcade of crazy bigotry by saying that America should not allow anyone into the country unless they convert to Christianity. Video below the fold.

About Ed Brayton

After spending several years touring the country as a stand up comedian, Ed Brayton tired of explaining his jokes to small groups of dazed illiterates and turned to writing as the most common outlet for the voices in his head. He has appeared on the Rachel Maddow Show and the Thom Hartmann Show, and is almost certain that he is the only person ever to make fun of Chuck Norris on C-SPAN.

    Come on Ed, I think you’re being a bit unfair to Fischer – he just wants to enforce the constitution as the founders intended. :p

    For some reason this title made me think of warning stickers.

    “Caution America is only for use by Christians, excessive use of Christian America may lead to headaches and nausea. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery while under the influence of Christian America”

  • eric

    I fully agree…as long as I get to decide which sects count.

  • brucecoppola

    @eric: The only sect Bryan Fischer wants in America is his. Which, of course, would make us a homosectual country.

    Thanks, I’ll be here all night…

    And the Christian Taliban is an entirely different thing from the Muslim Taliban. Oh sure, they both hate women, gays and apostates, but at least the xtians like the Jews, so long as they’re in Israel. They want them to have their own homeland so they can all get killed and then Christ will come back.

  • Irreverend Bastard

    Can I convert to just any form of Christianity, or are there some that don’t count? Are Mormons Christians? Is God one person, or three?

    And be good to your waitress!

    You win a free Internet. Well played, sir.

  • Michael Heath

    I noticed that while not mentioning Jews, he argued in a way that require them to convert as well.

    If Fischer got his way it would be Spain, 1492, all over again. No Jews, no Muslims.

    What happens to those who were born in the US and then convert, or become atheists?

    Where are they deported to, especially if they only have US citizenship?

  • Artor

    Well, according to our Next President *gag* Santorum, non-Catholics aren’t really Xtian, so Fischer better convert quick before he’s thrown out on his ass.

    As happy as I’d be to see Fischer go somewhere very far away and never be heard from again, I’d really rather it not go down quite like that.

    As happy as I’d be to see Fischer go somewhere very far away and never be heard from again, I’d really rather it not go down quite like that.

    I would expect the people who are already somewhere very far away would insist that it not go down like that. Send him some place else!

    And the only Christians that count are members in good standing (and fully tithed) with the Reformed Latter Day Upper Primitive Revival Hoppist Espiscopalian Anglicans. Everyone else, get your passports.

    He is a vile human being. I am so tired of hearing this type of intolerance, though he takes it to a new level. I have to admit, it is because of people like him that I started my blog, and became active in the atheist community where I live. I just can’t sit by and not speak out about it anymore.

  • Ace of Sevens

    Did he say UN security forces have taken over the American South?

  • TGAP Dad

    Just when you thought no one could top Ann Coulter’s infamous “We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity, ” along comes Bryan Fischer.

  • M Groesbeck

    Though I was born a U.S. citizen (two American parents), I didn’t enter the U.S. until I was a few weeks old. I was, at the time, not officially Christian. Does this mean I’ll have to go back to Tahiti?

  • http://euroatheist.wordpress.com pelamun

    M Groesbeck,

    unfortunately France only gives you French citizenship if one of your parents was also born in France. So no luck there.

    What I wouldn’t give to be a fly on the wall during a psychological evaluation of this man.

    There is something deeply wrong with him. I don’t know what, but I’d love to put a name to it.

  • sunsangnim

    The UN dictates US immigration policy? Who does this guy think he is, Alex Jones?

  • doktorzoom

    There is something deeply wrong with him. I don’t know what, but I’d love to put a name to it.

    I guess the DSM-V doesn’t actually recognize “Assholery” as a disorder…
