Lee Duigon is the author of the Bell Mountain Series of novels, contributing editor for Our Faith for All of Life magazine, sometimes contributor to the BarbWire website, fanatic wingnut, affiliate of R.J. Rushdoony’s Chalcedon foundation, theocrat and conspiracy theorist.
An unconditional fan of Trump, Duigon was very happy that it was Trump and not Obama (“Barack Hussein Ebola, who looks black”, as Duigon calls him) who got to fill the vacant SCOTUS seat left by the death of Anthony Scalia: “one more Obama judge on the Supreme Court, and it would’ve been ‘All children under 16 are now over 16,’ ‘Our national language is now Arabic’,” because Duigon perceived Obama as someone he disagreed with on political issues and if you disagree with Duigon on some political issue you automatically support whatever else Duigon doesn’t like and you’re a Muslim and a pedophile. Of course, Duigon is also convinced that leftists “really are the servants of Satan. What you say and do can be explained in no other way” because to Duigon, explanations that appeal to facts and evidence are attempts to appeal to something Duigon won’t recognize as relevant. “Are Liberals Retarded?” asks Duigon and apparently answers in the negative: no, they’re just serving Satan. The TV show The Mick also left him without “doubt that the whole project of the Left, the secular humanist whoopee crowd, is satanic to the core.”
And to counter the influence of demons and Satan and general dangers posed by the left – “leftist schemes for Utopia inevitably involve lots of barbed wire, machine gun towers, re-education –they like to call it ‘sensitivity training’ – and piles of dead bodies” – we need to engage in spiritual warfare: “the time has come to take our country back. And, because there can be nothing worthwhile accomplished without it, to re-Christianize America.” Indeed, as Duigon sees it, “America needs an exorcism.” And the pushback is (possibly) working: Today’s liberals are unhappy because “Satan is unhappy”: “When the devil is angry and unhappy, his servants are angry and unhappy.” So there.
No fan of LGBT rights, Duigon has lamented that “I was born in a country inhabited by men and women. Now I live in one dominated by freaks.” America is currently under threat of “wicked officials in thrall to Big Sodomy” who will “force churches to perform same-sex ‘marriage’ exercises” and make sure “pastors and priests will be punished if they speak against it” (religious freedom and free speech will also be banned due to “insatiable and unappeasable” gay rights advocates). Indeed, people supporting LGBT rights “put our country in danger of God’s judgement – as when a few lawyers on the Supreme Court ‘legalize’ the same-sex parody of marriage, without benefit of any law being passed by the legislature, and the, er, president orders the White House lit up with ‘rainbow’ lights to celebrate this evil.” Here is Duigon’s response to the 2015 SCOTUS ruling legalizing same-sex marriage: the “antichrists” celebrating the court’s decision, which will destroy freedom, will go to Hell. And remember that “the militant ‘gays’” pushing their “gaydeology” (Duigon compares them to super-plants from outer space that eat people) are “only the street muscle for a ‘progressive’ project to beat down church, family, and anything else that competes with the secular, God-denying state;” The real enemy consists of “t]he teachers’ unions”, “the atheist militants, the abortion fans who chant ‘Hail, Satan,’ “ and “the statist schmucks who staff ‘human rights’.”
Duigon is also a hardcore young-earth creationist and has published creationist screeds e.g. for the Chalcedon foundation. As for the theory of evolution (“a false religion”), Duigon claims that “the more I study the matter, the less sense it makes”. We do not doubt that evolution doesn’t make sense to Duigon, but we do suspect him of lying when he suggests that he has tried to study it. He does claim that the theory of evolution “is the source of all the rot-runaway statism, institutionalized atheism, eugenics, 'gay pride' parades, 'transgender' restrooms, the destruction of 'inferior races, and all the rest. If it stinks, Darwinism is at the root of it."
And, oh: What do you think Lee Duigon thinks about vaccines? Lee Duigon thinks vaccines, at least Covid vaccines, are “experimental drugs” that can easily wind up “making you sterile, or killing you”. Because of course he does.
Diagnosis: At least he’s trustworthy in the sense that if Lee Duigon claims p, you have good reason to think not-p. Otherwise, he is dingbat insane, angry and hateful. Some people do read what he writes, though, without immediately recognizing it as laughable drivel.
