The name “Battle Cry” — and especially the shameless, spiritualized dick-swinging of the “City Hall Rally” — has little to do with what St. Paul meant by “spiritual warfare.” It is, instead, the latest example of all that the so-called “culture warriors” seem capable of: Marking their territory by pissing on trees.
From the bogus “War on Christmas” to the fetishistic devotion to Ten Commandments markers, this territory-marking has become an obsession for many of the alleged followers of Christ. “They’ll know we are Christians by our love” apparently proved too difficult, so instead we’ve settled for “They’ll know we are Christians by our bullying dominance of the public square.”
