Now that he has his own website and programming, CGI's Bill Watson is off and running toward Crazyville! Indeed, this guy makes Dave Pack, Gerald Flurry, and Bob Thiel look sane and reasonable! Considering himself to be free of Tyler's control, Mr. Watson now appears to feel free to say whatever pops into his befuddled mind. In the latest episode of his Wall Watchers: Current Event Updates, the Medina, Ohio pastor's preoccupation with right-wing extremism and circular reasoning are on graphic display.
Gone are the euphemisms for talking about Covid origin and vaccination conspiracy theories. Mr. Watson no longer feels the need to pat his arm to signify the vaccination or "jab" as he refers to it without actually vocalizing the words. During the first thirty-eight (38) minutes of this latest episode, he rails against mandates and characterizing the Covid vaccination shots as vaccinations (Bill insists that the shots be referred to as "gene therapy"). The "good" pastor insists on his rights to control his own body, and what is placed into it and denies that ANY government has the right to impose ANY mandates regarding ANY kind of vaccinations (even the traditional ones). Ironically, the pastor doesn't seem to mind imposing controls on what women do with their own bodies.
The sources which support and vindicate Mr. Watson's perspective? The same ones who generated these conspiracy theories when the virus started! Now that the crazies are in control in Washington (RFK Jr. at Health and Human Services), the Florida Surgeon General's office, and at the CDC, their pronouncements on the subject are presented as gospel truth! For Mr. Watson, big pharma and the CDC were conspiring together to control and kill Americans and to coverup their nefarious activities by suppressing reports of problems with the "jab."
In the remaining twelve (12) minutes of his presentation, Mr. Watson decried attacks on what he calls "Biblical Christianity." According to Mr. Watson, the only valid interpretation of Scripture relative to human sexuality is the one which supports the traditional narrative (anti-homosexual, anti-"gender dysphoria"). Ironically, Mr. Watson preaches against almost everything else these "Biblical" (Traditional) Christians preach! Apparently, they interpreted Scripture correctly regarding sexual ethics and missed the mark on everything else!
For Pastor Watson, "Biblical Christianity" is engaged in a great "spiritual war" against what he calls "Progressive Christianity" (any Christians who do not support the doctrine of Biblical inerrancy or the "truth" about sexual "normality"). In both politics and religion, Mr. Watson abhors "modern thinking," especially the kind which he characterizes as "liberal" or "progressive." The pastor also appears to believe that "human experience" should NOT be consulted in formulating a coherent theology - just what he says that the Bible says! In yet another twist of irony, Watson insists that "Progressive" Christians are denying the exclusivity of salvation through Jesus Christ (he apparently hasn't been reading any of my posts on the subject). Indeed, he completely misses the irony of his own teaching that Christians are obligated to observe many of the provisions of Torah (in addition to their salvation through Jesus of Nazareth).
Finally, Mr. Watson pointed out that God is doing the calling of people to himself. Hence, he reasons that Christians shouldn't worry about evangelizing or reaching out to those nasty and perverted modern or progressive thinkers. In other words, there shouldn't be any problems in just targeting conservative or traditional-leaning folks as the only worthwhile field for evangelizing and/or preaching his "warning" message (Apparently, Jesus didn't really mean the whole world when he commissioned his followers to teach his message)! Yeah, let's all ignore those pesky problematic passages of Scripture and read The Blaze! After all, isn't that where the REAL "truth" is to be found?
