Newsweek Has a Disgusting New Name for the Values Voter Summit

While Newsweek has been a liberal rag for years, its recent attacks on conservatives — and especially Christian conservatives — make it clear it’s a rag that doesn’t deserve to be on any magazine rack in America.

As an example of Newsweek’s sick hatred for Christian conservatives, consider its decision this week to label the Family Research Council a hate group, despite the FRC being one of the nation’s top Christian non-profits and charities.

“Donald Trump To Speak At Hate Group’s Annual Event, A First For A President,” blared a headline for a Newsweek piece published Thursday.

The headline was referring to Trump’s decision to attend the council’s Values Voter Summit, an annual political conference for Christian conservatives.

“President Donald Trump will be the first sitting president to address the Family Research Council’s Values Voter Summit, which the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) described as a ‘rogues’ gallery of the radical right,’” Newsweek’s piece read.

Funny how Newsweek chose to quote the SPLC, which many conservatives have rightly argued is itself a hate group — one that frequently distorts the facts to smear conservatives, and one that many still blame for a shooting that occurred at the FRC’s headquarters five years ago.

“The shooter, Floyd Lee Corkins, admitted that he wanted to ‘kill as many as possible and smear the Chick-Fil-A sandwiches in victims’ faces, and kill the guard’ after he saw the FRC listed on the SPLC’s website as a ‘hate group,’” The Daily Wire reported last month.

But why does the SPLC hate the FRC? Because of its commitment to Christian values and beliefs, including the belief that homosexuality is a sin.

Does this mean Christians have the right to hate or persecute homosexuals? Of course not. But Christians surely do have a right to not tolerate the homosexual lifestyle — and this is a constitutionally guaranteed right the leftists at the SPLC, Newsweek and other liberal rags greatly resent.

Be that as it may be, this belief doesn’t make Christian conservatives hateful or the FRC a hate group. It just makes them Christians of a certain belief.

And sorry to burst the bubbles of the genuinely hateful airheads at Newsweek magazine, but unlike Islam, Christianity truly is a religion of love and peace.
