Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Attacks Atheists Who Object To College Video Touting Religion As Basis For Democracy
As a devout Christian man (ahem) Roger Ailes clearly does not like atheists. His disdain for those who do not follow the gospel according to the religious right (and that just might include the new pope) is demonstrated in his "news" network's constant attacks on atheists who object to what they see as improper incursions of Christianity into the public square. Giving the conservative Catholic imprimatur on these atheists attacks is Fox's personal priest, Fr. Jonathan Morris who never wastes an opportunity to whine about how these nasty "disrespectful" atheists are trying to remove God from America as we know it. Yesterday, the doe eyed little padre started off 2015 by violating his late 2014 axiom that we should forgive atheists!

Read moreAinsley Earhardt, Erick Erickson Whine About 'Bible Bashing' Newsweek Article
The level of Fox News Christian hypocrisy is stunning. While they feel it's just fine and dandy to bash those who are don't believe in Fox's version of Christianity, they get their nice, white Christian panties in a bunch over a Newsweek article which calls out Christians for their hypocrisy in cherry picking bible verses in order to suit right wing ideology. Tuesday's Fox & Friends got their patented persecuted Christian vibe on with yet another whine about how nasty Newsweek, OMG, "bashed" the Bible. Thursday's Fox & Friends rang in the New Year with a continuation of that whine!
Read more‘Pro Police’ Fox Again Snubs Slain NYPD Officer’s Funeral

In Fox News' pantheon of scary black men, Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Barack Obama, who accrued much of his scariness from his association with the pastor, top the chart. Ever since Obama's 2008 campaign, Fox News has used Rev. Wright, whose "God damn America" video was played 24 and 7 on Fox, to denigrate Obama at every turn.
