Stephen Green, “British Version of Peter LaBarbera,” Said to Be Wife Beater
The whole ugly story comes from Joe.My.God.:
Infamous anti-gay activist Stephen Green, who is well known as a British version of Peter LaBarbera,* has been divorced by his wife. Because he’d been beating her with a piece of wood. …Green’s wife also claims that their son had to be hospitalized after a beating from him. …
Last month the BBC raised the ire of LGBT activists when they interviewed Green as an “opposing voice” in a story about the birth of Elton John’s son. Green has publicly endorsed Uganda’s plan to execute homosexuals and his group, Christian Voice, has advocated for the overturn of Britain’s laws against marital rape, saying that the Bible demands that all women must submit sexually to their husbands. …

On the other hand, we’re not so sure Stephen Green belongs here. Oh, he’s a conservative, all right, but we’re not so sure he’s a hypocrite, what with 1 Timothy 2:11-14 and all.
But, hey, don’t blame us — we here at ConBab Central try our very, very best to adhere to Christian law (well, OK, and sometimes Mormon law, and Orthodox Jewish law) when pointing out the glaring differences between what Men-O’-God say, and what they do. It wouldn’t be fair to hold them to any other standard (like, oh, say, just plain, common decency), would it?
So… Hmmm… Yep. Stephen Green — assuming all these allegations are true (although, really, who could believe the word of a mere woman?) — is not a right-wing hypocrite. A brutish monster who makes jackals and hyenas appear civilized, perhaps, but not a hypocrite.
Except for that little issue of divorce. If Stevie were a real, Christian man, he wouldn’t have allowed the wife to divorce him.
Oh! Guess he is a big, fat hypocrite after all!
Whew! Are we ever glad that’s settled!
