The 1,000-year flood in Louisiana is a terrible natural disaster. Tony Perkins is the president of the Family Research Council. He and his organization are spectacular homophobes who have stoked the flames of anti-homosexual bigotry for years. They’re the kind of Bible thumpers that work themselves into a fevered and clammy sweat reading and rereading, and staying up late at night to read in the bathroom, the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. They are usually pretty quick to point out that natural disasters and terrible tragedies that befall groups of people they do not like are the result of God’s wrath.
Perkins is on vacation this month, but today he called into his own radio show to lament the “biblical proportion” disaster that will allegedly force his family to live in a camper for the six months it will take to rebuild his home. Today’s guest host for Perkins’ show is former Family Research Council vice president Ken Klukowski, who now works for Breitbart.
Interestingly, Perkins mentions that about “80 percent” of his church’s followers are basically homeless because of these floods of “biblical proportions.” Not missing a beat, Perkins and guest host Ken Klukowski, explain that this flood is a chance to roll around in God’s glory.
...to sanctify you and to use this as an incredible, encouraging spiritual exercise to take you to the next level in your walk with an almighty and gracious God who does all things well.”
The Nile isn’t just a river that’s turned the color of blood in Egypt.
Here’s the Family Research Council interviewing Tony Perkins, on his own show, to discuss this “flood of near biblical proportions.”
