James Hutchins at UCCTruths is hopping mad: UCC National Office to Host Terrorist Art Show

Yes, this time I've gone off the deep end. No issue has bothered me more than the UCC's relationship with convicted Puerto Rican terrorists that are responsible for over 150 bombings in the U.S. during the 70's and 80's. There is no moral or theological reason for defending members of this group who have killed and injured dozens of people. What is further shocking and completely contradictory to any of our beliefs is that there is no record (in the nearly 30 years that the UCC has been advocating for these terrorists) that our denomination ever reached out to the victims of FALN violence.

From November 16 until December 1, the national offices of the United Church of Christ will be co-sponsoring and hosting the traveling art exhibition "Not Enough Space" commemorating the 25 years of imprisonment of terrorists Carlos Alberto Torres and Oscar López Rivera.

In their promotional materials, the UCC is positioning the terrorists as political prisoners "serving long prison terms for acts and beliefs in favor of Puerto Rican independence."

Sounds innocent enough, doesn't it? The truth is much different...

No permalink, scroll down if necessary (now at the top). There's much, much more. The United Church of Christ is one of the mainline Protestant denominations who's national office has been pushing various Leftist issues, including divestment from Israel. This is incredible.

As a side note, if you recall my entry Temple in the Morning, Terror in the Evening... that reported on Massachusetts Green-Rainbow Party Gubernatorial candidate Grace Ross attending a terrorist fund-raising event, these Puerto Rican "independistas" were also, along with Palestinian terrorists, a cause celebre that evening.

Entirely OT, humor, but gotta share this: The Principles of Jewish Buddhism.
