Carnegie Hall Concert

[edit]

A little support material, no idea how to include it (http://kerryon.blogspot.com/2005/02/passion-of-bloodlust.html):

If it's religion they want, give them instead Mahalia Jackson, performing with the Duke Ellington Orchestra in the Duke's original suite "Black, Beige and Brown", a concert at Carnegie Hall in 1943 to uplift and benefit the Russian War relief fund, to help in the fight against the crushing invasion by Nazi Germany. Imagine, in an era of segregation, a negro orchestra encouraging a godless country to keep up the fight against Hitler, with Mahalia Jackson's spirited, woeful voice singing about slaves who seek strength, and who cherish their Sunday day of rest so that they can replenish their spirit to keep on:

And it all went to help fund global militant atheism, unbelievable! TMLutas 02:38, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


The above entry is clear proof that the author is biased on this subject. Red baiting and red scare paranoia are not objective information sources.

Also the decrying of support for victims of the nazis because they lived in a "godless nation" and references to "global militant aethism" is not only paranoid conspiracy mongering of the first order, it reveals a shocking ignorance of the American principle of religious freedom and the non-establishment clause of our constitution which requires our government to abstain from religion, making the USA the original "godless nation" which allows religious zealots like the author above to spew their anti constitutional beliefs despite their antipathy to the bill of rights.
