Remember the Alamo — Tony Alamo

The story of Tony Alamo is bound, someday, to be made into a movie. It’s so bizarre, so improbable, so full of incident and crime and sin that it makes some soap operas look clean! The horrifyingly saddest part of this story is that Alamo was viewed and viewed himself as a conservative Christian minister. In the eyes of the world, it gives all such persons a bad name. And on top of everything else it plays on and plays right into the ultra right wing paranoia in America about a “NEW WORLD ORDER’ secretly masterminded by the Pope, as an attempt to turn America into a Fascist state. One can only imagine Alamo’s reaction to the revelation last week that Catholic bishops aided in getting the health care legislation changed so that abortions wouldn’t be funded with federal money. Dan Brown couldn’t have thought up a conspiracy story this good, or a nefarious character as amazing as Tony Alamo.

Victim to Tony Alamo: what kind of a man of God does what you have done?

Tony Alamo, the disgraced preacher, has been sentenced to 175 years in prison as a result of his abuse of young girls, crucifying Jesus again in their flesh by sexual degradation and humiliation. He shamed them in private, violating their bodies, and in public, where they were paraded before the congregation as his “brides.”
