The Christian Civic League of Maine's Mike Hein calls Pam's House Blend:
"a leading source of radical homosexual propaganda, anti-Christian bigotry, and radical transgender advocacy."

He is "praying that Pam Spaulding will "turn away from her wicked and sinful promotion of homosexual behavior." (CCLM's web site, 10/15/07)


Ex-gay "Christian" activist James Hartline on Pam:
"I have been mocked over and over again by ungodly and unprincipled anti-christian lesbians."
(from "Six Years In Sodom: From The Journal Of James Hartline," 9/4/2006, written from the "homosexual stronghold" of Hillcrest in San Diego).

"Pam is a 'twisted lesbian sister' and an 'embittered lesbian' of the 'self-imposed gutteral experiences of the gay ghetto.'" -- 9/5/2008



Peter LaBarbera of Americans for Truth Against Homosexuality heartily endorses the Blend, calling Pam:

A "vicious anti-Christian lesbian activist."
(Concerned Women for America's radio show [9:15], 1/25/07)

"A nutty lesbian blogger."
(MassResistance radio show [16:25], 2/3/07)


Pam's House Blend always seems to find these sick f*cks. The area of the country she is in? The home state of her wife? I know, they are everywhere. Pam just does such a great job of bringing them out into the light.

Former assistant dean at Pat Robertson's Regent Univ and his wife plead guilty to child sex abuse

by: Pam Spaulding

Wed Sep 02, 2009 at 16:00:00 PM EDT


It's getting to be a broken record, isn't it? Yet another member of the pious set proves the far-right judgmental conservative set is populated with a boatload of deviants. In a Virginia Beach Circuit Courtroom in separate hearings, Stephen Lee McPherson, 40, and Melina Ann McPherson, 37 pled guity of taking indecent liberties with a minor -- not one incident, mind you, but several between 1996 and 2000 involving three sisters. It occurred while the McPhersons were house parents at Hope Haven Children’s Home. It makes you sick.

Haven is a Christian-based shelter run by Union Mission Ministries, which was directed by Stephen McPherson’s grandfather, the late Rev. Ted Bashford.

Court records show Stephen McPherson repeatedly molested two of the sisters under his supervision and manipulated them by citing Bible verses that he said justified the abuse. Melina McPherson engaged in sexual acts with the third sister, cited Bible verses to justify her actions and told the victim that “they had a special relationship,” according to court records.

Stephen McPherson already is serving time on related sex abuse charges. He pleaded guilty in January to sexually abusing the two girls in Chesapeake. The McPhersons moved to Chesapeake in 2000 and took the three sisters there after adopting them, records show.

He was ordered to serve 16 years in prison after pleading guilty to forcible sodomy and object sexual penetration charges.
Stephen will serve 3 years. It's not clear how long Melina McPherson will serve. She agreed to serve 40 days in exchange for the guilty plea (the couple has two young kids at home; I don't even want to know what's going on under their roof - she shouldn't be near ANY kids), but the judge has not said yet whether he would accept it.

This is why straight people shouldn't be allowed around children.


*putting on smarmy "christian" face*
No no no!!

It's the HOMOSEXUALS who's after the children.

THIS is "christian love".


[ Parent ]
What about the children?
So, the McPherson's sexually abuse children they adopted, are convicted and serve jail time.  This is all good, but do they permanently loose custody of the the three girls they adopted?

[ Parent ]
Probably...
The kids have been placed in a foster care situation, where i really hope they're getting the help they need.

I thought most convicted sex offenders, particularly where minors were victims, can't be within a certain radius of children, and that certainly precludes living in the same house.

Gahd. Much as I don't want to think about it, I do want to know what possible translation of the Bible they were reading. It must have been Eddie Izzard's "Gospel According to Saint Bastard."


[ Parent ]
"What about the children?"
The three sisters were described as teens at the time the abuse took place; they must now all be adults. Believe it or not, one of the reasons claimed for the abbreviated prison sentences in the VA Beach trial (particularly for the mother) is that the girls didn't want the two young natural sons of these people to grow up without at least one parent.

[ Parent ]
Wait a minute ...
Isn't Regents University where George Bush was getting all those lawyers he was installing in the Justice Department? You know, the ones who replaced the politically incorrect (viz. impartial) lawyers? The ones who instigated witch hunt vendettas against Democratic elected officials? The ones who ... ah, you know.

I'm an atheist, but I was raised by these same king of people and I can say honestly that right-wing, conservative christians have nothing in common with the Christ of scripture.


[ Parent ]
could it be??
...manipulated them by citing Bible verses that he said justified the abuse

wait, i've been told by fox news and republican leaders that the bible is the inerrant word of god, and that this country was founded on it.  how can something inerrant and forming the basis of democracy contain passages that can be interpreted to exploit minors?  it's only the passages about killing HOMOS that we're supposed to be taking literally, people, not the ones about raping children, beating women, and being subservient to our masters.  i mean, come on!      

The gays stole my lunch money


THREE G*D DAMN years? Forty F*CKIN DAYS!
They raped three girls, they used the foulest of tactics of quoting scripture to them while they did it.

Honey, if any of those girls were my relatives, they'd throw away the G*D DAMN key, or they wouldn't be breathing.

"race, taste. and History finally overcome....and you ain't there"

What does Pat Robinson
have to say about all of this?

Or is he working up the script blaming teh gheys for the return of the swine flu?


I guess there's a good chance that Stephen will be catching "brain cancer" in prison.
Oh well.

Why?
Why can't they pick on someone their own size?  

Because
THAT would be a fair fight.

This is why these "christian" types prey on children, depressed and mentally vulnerable people (single moms whose father ran off, gays having to choose between family and freedom, etc.).

Was he one of McDonnells advisors?

Or did the (19th century mysogenist Virgina gubenotorial) candidate take a bunch of his classes?

Modern Translation "It has served us well, this myth of Christ."


Right Wing Lies and the MSM
We need to remind the straight community that the rate of violent crime against children is committed by straights to gays at a ratio of 11 to 1 and that 3 out of 4 children raped are girls (not boys by gay men). These statistics are from the Bureau of Prisons. We need to throw this in their face every time they bring up children in their discussions of LBGTs.

History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government.-- Thomas Jefferson
