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.
Tony Alamo makes ‘Malakh’ in The Lost Symbol look like a regular guy.
