Porn Star Punks Pastor Hagee: ‘I Considered Flashing My Boobs’

By David Edwards

Wednesday, November 28, 2012 12:49 EST

A porn star who has appeared in dozens of adult films recently came face to face with a conservative pastor who believes that “America’s hope for survival is the anointed preaching of the gospel with such force that the chains” of pornography are broken.

Larry Flynt’s Hustler provided Raw Story with a copy of Nina Hartley’s Nov. 27 column titled “John Hagee Meets With the Great Whore of Babylon.”

Hartley explains that Hagee had come to Beverley Hills in August — “just spitting distance from the Flynt building” — to tell a group of Christians about how he “went to Israel as a tourist and came back a Zionist.”

“As a Jew, I’ve long found it annoying that evangelicals are so hellbent on getting all the Jews to return to Israel—not for our own good, mind you, but to bring about Armageddon and the Second Coming,” she writes. “With ideas like that, it’s not hard to imagine what Pastor Hagee would think of my job and what that makes me in his eyes.”

Wearing conservative a red blazer and holding a copy of Hagee’s book, Hartley ventured into the event and asked if Hagee would be signing autographs.

I'm not a consumer of pornography and have a hard time saying that it is 100% beneficial to society, but she certainly speaks from a place of truth.

For a number of issues. Having heard her speak I can tell you that Ms. Hartley is smart, tough, and focused. Good on her.

and condescending that evangelicals cozy up to them as brothers but underneath it all evangelicals still believe that everyone including Jews will in the end bow their knee to Jesus Christ.

I also cringe when they try to lump us in with their hate under the banner of Judeo-Christian values.
