Satan Attacks God’s Design By Making Graham Cracker Ad
Read Time:3 Minute, 30 Second
The devil is the CEO of Honey Maid graham crackers. At least that is what the American Decency Association is implying as they join the anti-gay boycott of the venerable company, led by the American Family Association subsidiary One Million Moms.
These right wing homophobic religious fanatics are upset that the cracker company’s “This Is Wholesome” ad features a same-sex couple with their children, which the ADA’s Steve Huston claims is Satan’s doing.
“With Nabisco, Coca-cola, Chevrolet and the plethora of advertisers out there trying to make homosexuality look normal and wholesome, you’d think that this issue has become a cultural wave that has taken in a very large percentage of the population,” Huston writes.
“It’s not a matter of acceptance; it’s a matter of an evil agenda which is being pushed upon America and around the world. Satan continues to attack God’s design and skew it to his own workings. He continues to take words like ‘wholesome’ and ‘family’ and twist them for his own purposes.”
When I think of graham crackers I think of the camping I may do this summer and the smores I might eat around a campfire. I fondly remember eating a bowl full of soggy graham crackers for breakfast and talking with my mom. They were an easy snack to give my children with a little frosting on them. Yes, I have some wholesome memories of graham crackers, Nabisco graham crackers.
Apparently Nabisco and I have a fondness for different things now. Of course they wanted to sell crackers and I was really just interested in eating them; but now Nabisco wants to change definitions like family and wholesome. Now I am older and more interested in protecting definitions like family and wholesome; I’m interested in being a conscientious consumer, watching where I spend my dollar.
…
Satan wants us to see sin as normal and not so bad. He delights in taking what God has made “good” and was meant to glorify God and change it, counterfeit it, making it to please Satan himself instead of the Creator God. The fallen one desires men to see themselves as gods, having to answer to no one but themselves.
As Honey Maid explains on their Youtube page,
“Today we celebrate all families. From working moms to two moms;” I can’t help but think how far we have come. Do you realize we’ve been accepting two moms for a long time? Granted, we’ve been accepting two moms in different homes because of divorce; but now Honey Maid and others are putting two moms in a same-sex relationship. They are making two dads to seem normal. Both are wrong; both are unwholesome; both run contrary to the Word of God. Satan whispers, “Did God really say…?” “YES, HE DID!” should be our quick and relentless cry.
With Nabisco, Coca-cola, Chevrolet and the plethora of advertisers out there trying to make homosexuality look normal and wholesome, you’d think that this issue has become a cultural wave that has taken in a very large percentage of the population. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! The fact is that homosexuals account for less than 2% of the population of the United States of America. You can see the numbers of this 2011 study for yourself here.
It’s not a matter of acceptance; it’s a matter of an evil agenda which is being pushed upon America and around the world. Satan continues to attack God’s design and skew it to his own workings. He continues to take words like “wholesome” and “family” and twist them for his own purposes. He takes a symbol of God’s promise (the rainbow) and hijacks it, twisting it to his own design. Satan calls it normal; God calls it sin. We live in a day when “evil” is called “good” and “good” is called “evil.” That which is meant to glorify God (family, the church, etc) is being taken and bent out of shape until it is hardly recognizable.
We just can’t make this up, and neither can RightWingWatch who contributed materially to this story.

“…being pushed upon America…” I wish they would open their eyes to the reality that America is made up of more than just their intolerant, ignorant, bible-thumping, inbred set; they are not the “real America”, we are. But religion creates and perpetuates the whole idea of Us vs. Them; it separates groups and invariably raises one group above the others.
Norman Rampart: True there will always be those who are hateful of homosexuality, racial differences, atheism, etc, but theirs is a shrinking fringe minority who see their power and privilege slipping away. Unfortunately, as their base shrinks, only the nuttier (and louder) ones remain; that means it will get uglier in the public forum before it gets better.
They better hope we are more gracious than they were when they had power.
Great points made here. There’s nothing wrong with a little optimism.
You’ll never change them you know. They’ll always be so terrified of homosexuality that, to them, it will always be evil.
I was born straight (as it happens), he/she was born gay, he/she was born bi…and life goes on.
I wish they’d get over it but they won’t will they?
The day will come when the vast majority will accept people who are different from the rest of us, but there will still be those few who are so filled with hate they will never be accepting.
I am leaving this here. Honeymaid rebuttal to the haters. Love will always win over hate and good people will win over intolerant bigoted fucks. Also too, the guy from Firefox Eich who donated to proph8 against marriage equality resigned today. Last week the haters hated him because he didn’t go far enough in his hate, today he is a martyr for their cause because big gay and their allies forced him out of a job. The spinning these right wing freaks do, could keep the planet going in power if we could harness it.
I guess I have to stop eating my graham crackers with peanut butter – not. Screw you nuts. My grand kids love them too.
Personally, I like whole wheat bread, peanut butter, and honey. I have one at least once a week.
Does that make me one of Satan’s Spawn? If not, I apologize, I am trying. 😀
No I don’t think that would qualify James.
Damn, and I try so hard! I eat them shamelessly and have even fed them to my children. Doesn’t that make me at least a little evil? 😉
I love graham crackers with peanut butter.
I eat graham crackers, and so did my kids. We didn’t eat them by the pound, only a few at a time, and I made sure of that. Pretty much anything in moderation is OK for you.
“Moderation” that’s the key. It’s something the religious reich does not understand. FOr them, everything is all or nothing.
Smores and Graham Crackers with frosting are a “wholesome snack”? Yes, refined sugar is good for you. Just ask any sugar producer.
Not only does this moron not care about truth, human decency, and equality for all. He doesn’t even care about the health of his children.
If they really want to go after big gay, they need to stop using Apple products CEO is gay, Microsoft, Google etc since they are all about equality. Forgot that part the first reply.
One million moms is only about 100k of them with landlines. They are always targeting everyone, it’s what keeps them in the news. Yesterday they were all about boycotting the Noah movie, which as you know is a righteous use of time when god’s gentle people boycott. When the rest of us do it we are abusive, intolerant, big gay loving fascists.
It is too early for this crap. Stone thee who has hurled the first stone. Now, put that in funny little America value package.
