Christians Are ‘Enemies of the Constitution’: Military Confirms It Will Court Martial Christians Who Express Their Faith

Sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the military is stated to be “treason,” an act of “spiritual rape” and that Christians are “enemies of the Constitution” according to new guidelines being established in Obama’s military.

The road to persecution and eradication of Christians in what once was America is being set before our eyes.  Empowering the State to persecute Christians for their faith is about to take it’s first step to becoming policy in the military, where Obama is Commander-In-Chief.   I refer you to the entry from last week that reported that Obama’s military has declared Christianity a ‘Hate Group’.  That declaration was not an accident, typo or misunderstanding.  It was the justification for the criminalization and punishment of Christians within the military.

Under Obama, the Homosexuals were led out of the closet and celebrated, and now Christians are being forced into the closet and threatened to don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t mention or hint at their faith .

As most Americans rolled their eyes and ignore these patterns of hostility to patriotic American Christians, Obama’s regime is now quietly implementing the machinations to criminalize the Christian faith from inside the military.  Interestingly, Islam is not under the same auspices of consideration – even after the Jihad attack on Fort Hood.   However, Christians are specifically labelled and declared in official documents to be everything from ‘domestic terrorists’; ‘extremists’ and a ‘hate group’.  This is no surprise to those of us whom have been warning about where this would go since it was discovered in April of 2009 that the DHS had officially listed Right Wing Christians as ‘extremists’ without any mention of Jihadist Islam or Muslims in their report to Law Enforcement.

Today, Breitbart reports that Obama’s Pentagon has confirmed IT WILL  develop court-martial procedures to punish Christians in the military who express or share their faith.

Understand this now – the military will PROSECUTE any Christian in the military who even expresses or shares their faith in Christ.  The penalty for a court martial could be imprisonment and/or expulsion with dishonor from service.

As I said before, Obama’s transformation of our society is one that is a harbinger of horror as other Godless Leftist regimes of the last century illustrate.  A military unmoored from biblical morality and it’s soldiers of the Judeo-Christian principles and ethics, is a military that will be used to commit horrors at the request of an evil leadership without remorse from it’s soldiers.  Such a military could be used against American citizens without any shred of compassion to further the aims of a perverted leadership.

PENTAGON CONFIRMS IT MAY COURT MARTIAL SOLDIERS WHO SHARE CHRISTIAN FAITH

The Pentagon has released a statement confirming that soldiers could be prosecuted for promoting their faith: “Religious proselytization is not permitted within the Department of Defense…Court martials and non-judicial punishments are decided on a case-by-case basis…”. 

The statement, released to Fox News, follows a Breitbart News report on Obama administration Pentagon appointees meeting with anti-Christian extremist Mikey Weinstein to develop court-martial procedures to punish Christians in the military who express or share their faith.

(From our earlier report: Weinstein is the head of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, and says Christians–including chaplains–sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in the military are guilty of “treason,” and of committing an act of “spiritual rape” as serious a crime as “sexual assault.” He also asserted that Christians sharing their faith in the military are “enemies of the Constitution.”)

Being convicted in a court martial means that a soldier has committed a crime under federal military law. Punishment for a court martial can include imprisonment and being dishonorably discharged from the military.

So President Barack Obama’s civilian appointees who lead the Pentagon are confirming that the military will make it a crime–possibly resulting in imprisonment–for those in uniform to share their faith. This would include chaplains—military officers who are ordained clergymen of their faith (mostly Christian pastors or priests, or Jewish rabbis)–whose duty since the founding of the U.S. military under George Washington is to teach their faith and minister to the spiritual needs of troops who come to them for counsel, instruction, or comfort.

This regulation would severely limit expressions of faith in the military, even on a one-to-one basis between close friends. It could also effectively abolish the position of chaplain in the military, as it would not allow chaplains (or any service members, for that matter), to say anything about their faith that others say led them to think they were being encouraged to make faith part of their life. It’s difficult to imagine how a member of the clergy could give spiritual counseling without saying anything that might be perceived in that fashion.

In response to the Pentagon’s plans, retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, who is now executive vice president of the Family Research Council (FRC), said on Fox & Friends Wednesday morning:

It’s a matter of what do they mean by “proselytizing.” …I think they’ve got their defintions a little confused. If you’re talking about coercion that’s one thing, but if you’re talking about the free exercise of our faith as individual soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines, especially for the chaplains, they I think the worst thing we can do is stop the ability for a soldier to be able to exercise his faith.”

FRC has launched a petition here which has already collected over 30,000 signatures, calling on Secretary Hagel is stop working with Weinstein and his anti-Christian organization to develop military policy regarding religious faith.

Notice that it is only Christianity that will be prohibited from expression.  Islam and other religions are not affected.  The fact is that Chuck Hagel is a Muslim Convert, and his hostility to both Israel and Christianity was well documented during the Senate Hearings, and the Ruling Class confirmed him to the post anyway. Petitions are not going to dissuade him towards implementing Obama’s policy of persecuting Christians while uplifting other religious proselytes like the Muslim Brotherhood. Drumming out Christians from the military and society appears to be one of the goals.  If you note history – the military and government are usually the first place a regime’s political enemies are driven from before they are criminalized and eventually driven from society as a whole.

We can pray God would move on Hagel’s heart with these petitions – but it is becoming increasingly apparent – God has given our nation over to tyrants from within.  Soon I fear – what our Brothers and Sisters in the Faith have suffered in much of the rest of the world, will soon become part of our daily life here as well.  Matthew 24 will finally be realized on a people who have no experience with it, since they had protections from The Almighty since Christians first set foot on these shores.  A winnowing of whom will be left standing in the faith may be in our very near term futures.

UPDATE: Townhall has their opinion about this.  I think their title is incorrect.  It should actually read:

 ”This Is What Tyranny Feels Like”

This Is What Intolerance Smells Like

President Obama’s new “religious tolerance” consultant to the Pentagon, Mikey Weinstein, wants Christian military service members who openly talk about their faith in uniform to be charged with treason, which is a crime punishable by death according to military law.

By employing his consulting services, and as Commander-in-Chief, President Obama is effectively endorsing Weinstein’s recently voiced and written views such as: “Today, we face incredibly well-funded gangs of fundamentalist Christian monsters who terrorize their fellow Americans by forcing their weaponized [sic] and twisted version of Christianity upon their helpless subordinates in our nation’s armed forces.”

Weinstein’s inflamed word picture helps the rest of us understand what the world looks like to those who live with their eyes wide shut and sort of sounds like that old cereal commercial… except this time Mikey doesn’t like it – Christianity, that is, so no one else should. And Mikey’s giving the rest of us an object lesson in intolerance by showing us what liberal secularists are about: “It’s our way, or we shut you down.” In this case, Obama’s anti-Christian hit man, Weinstein, proposes that honorable men and women in the military who speak about their faith should be charged with a crime worthy of capital punishment. Smells like bull to me.

In recent months, there has been a push against Christianity in the military. A few notables include a military training instructor labeling Jews, Christians, Catholics and Mormons as extremists alongside al Qaeda. The Army blocked a Southern Baptist website, citing it displayed “hostile content,” (the Pentagon has since blamed it on a malware glitch), and an Army email was distributed warning fellow soldiers to beware of Christian ministry “hate groups.” Each of these incidents could be reasoned-away individually, but they all have one thing in common: Intolerance has an unmistakable stench.

News has it that Mr. Weinstein endorsed the Southern Poverty Law Center’s recent statement listing certain Christian organizations as hate groups. He also whole-heartedly agreed with comments made by radical Army Lt. Col. Jack Rich, who told his subordinates to be on the lookout for dangerous Christian soldiers who should be expelled from the military for their beliefs.

Lauding the Lt. Colonel’s statement in a Huffington Post anti-Christian hit piece April 16, Weinstein said, “We should as a nation effusively applaud Lt. Col. Rich,” and said America should go further to “vigorously support the continuing efforts to expose pathologically anti-gay, Islamaphobic, and rabidly intolerant agitators for what they are: die-hard enemies of the United States Constitution. Monsters, one and all. To do anything less would be to roll out a red carpet to those who would usher in a blood-drenched, draconian era of persecutions, nationalistic militarism, and superstitious theocracy.”

Gee, if I didn’t know better, I’d think he was speaking about why we are fighting the war on terror.

Religious intolerance reached the proverbial Foggy Bottom in the same article when Weinstein described Christians as “those evil fundamentalist Christian creatures” who hide behind the “facades” of “family values” and “religious liberty.” The same attributes could be also pinned to America’s founders, whom I suppose Mr. Intolerance would also deem as subversives.

It is obvious, foamy-mouthed Mikey has a bone to pick with Christians, and he’s found an effective way to get what he wants by working for the president and the president’s new military “yes man” Secretary Chuck Hagel.

Our fine men and women of the military, who are part of a historically noble institution, deserve so much better but are once again the punching bag at the expense of this intolerant administration.

In America, You May Not Speak About Christian Viewpoints In Public

The Left in full attack mode after Sports Commentator shares his Christian views on Homosexuality, forces Network to publicly apologize and demandsCommentator also apologize for his faith.

There IS NO TOLERANCE from the ‘Progressive’, Leftists – only tyranny.  Yet another example of their insidious attacks on the biblical faith in America is now playing out as the entirety of the MarxoFascist Left celebrates and revels in the ‘coming out’ announcement of NBA basketball player Jason Collins that he engages in sex with men.

I almost expected His Heinous Obama to declare a national holiday as the zeitgeist of the minority Gay Agenda continues to force itself upon us all and turn the civil and religious society in America inside out and upside down.

But spoiling the faggotry celebration of the Left on parade, was ESPN commentator Chris Broussard – dared to share the fact that his faith views homosexuality as a sin – but doesn’t use his faith to demean or attack those who are.  He noted that simply disagreeing with a lifestyle earns contempt, ridicule and declarations of bigotry and intolerance.

That was enough to send the Marxofascist Left and their media universe allies into a full meltdown – and the heat so intense for the network to punish Broussard – that he is having to ‘walk back’ his statements while the network goes full throttle to apologize that Broussard’s Christianity is not to be tolerated.

ESPN APOLOGIZES FOR COMMENTATOR’S CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW ON HOMOSEXUALITY

Ben Shapiro

While the left lectures Americans about the historic breakthrough made by NBA free agent Jason Collins in announcing his sexuality and calls for well-deserved tolerance, they are on full-out attack against ESPN commentator Chris Broussard for expressing his Christian views. And now ESPN has been forced to apologize.

It all started when Broussard appeared on Outside the Lines to talk about Collins. Appearing with ESPN senior writer LZ Granderson, who is openly gay, Broussard was asked by the host, “How ready is the NBA and the locker rooms for having an openly gay teammate?”

Broussard answered, “The climate in society is very set for this thing to happen …. A lot of people feel like if you come out and say you don’t agree with homosexuality, you are viewed as a bigot, you are viewed as intolerant. So I think the climate is right for somebody to come out and say they are gay. I’ve been texting with players, GMs, coaches, agents throughout the day … and it’s been overwhelmingly supportive of Jason, from former teammates to guys who have played against him.” Broussard acknowledged that a few players said they might be uncomfortable with a gay player in the showers, but that “I don’t think you’ll see somebody come out and be against this, whether because of their true feelings or because of political correctness.”

Later in the conversation, Granderson said, “If we really want to move toward progress and toward full acceptance, we have to have this conversation and this process. Broussard then seconded that motion, and gave an example of that conversation and how it could be productive:

I’d like to second what LZ said. “I’m a Christian. I don’t agree with homosexuality. I think it’s a sin, as I think all sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman is. [ESPN's] L.Z. [Granderson] knows that. He and I have played on basketball teams together for several years. We’ve gone out, had lunch together, we’ve had good conversations, good laughs together. He knows where I stand and I know where he stands. I don’t criticize him, he doesn’t criticize me, and call me a bigot, call me ignorant, call me intolerant.

In talking to some people around the league, there’s a lot Christians in the NBA and just because they disagree with that lifestyle, they don’t want to be called bigoted and intolerant and things like that. That’s what LZ was getting at. Just like I may tolerate someone whose lifestyle I disagree with, he can tolerate my beliefs. He disagrees with my beliefs and my lifestyle but true tolerance and acceptance is being able to handle that as mature adults and not criticize each other and call each other names…

Personally, I don’t believe that you can live an openly homosexual lifestyle or an openly premarital sex between heterosexuals, if you’re openly living that type of lifestyle, then the Bible says you know them by their fruits, it says that’s a sin. If you’re openly living in unrepentant sin, whatever it may be, not just homosexuality, adultery, fornication, premarital sex between heterosexuals, whatever it may be, I believe that’s walking in open rebellion to God and to Jesus Christ. I would not characterize that person as a Christian because I do not think the Bible would characterize them as a Christian.

This has been the traditional Biblical view for thousands of years. Still, traditionally religious people in the United States, like Broussard, have reached an understanding and tolerance for those with whom they disagree. Mutual tolerance between the traditionally religious and proponents of the morality of homosexuality is what the conversation between Granderson and Broussard was all about. As Granderson said, “Chris and I have had those uncomfortable conversations, the NBA now needs to have those uncomfortable conversations.” Tolerance is the goal. And tolerance requires tolerance on both sides.

But instead of having those uncomfortable conversations, and coming to mutual respect for one another’s positions, the left went after Broussard hammer and tongs. The hashtag #firechrisbroussard quickly skyrocketed on Twitter. The same left that praised Bob Costas to the skies for randomly sounding off on Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher and gun control now decided that Broussard was way out of line. The LA Timesran an online poll asking, “Should Broussard have said what he said on TV?”

Kelly Dwyer of Yahoo! Sports wrote, “The last thing [gay youths] need is to see someone like Chris Broussard, who ESPN (and by extension, the NBA) trusts as both its voice both at games and in-studio, to be referring to them as sinners who are in ‘open rebellion to God.’” Deadspin’s John Koblin said that it was “unclear why [Broussard’s opinion was] necessary or even relevant at this hour.” Variety subtly suggested, “In December, ESPN suspended commentator Rob Parker for questionable comments on the race of NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III, then chose not to renew his contract after it expired at year’s end.”

In response to all this leftist tolerance, ESPN dutifully released a statement apologizing for Broussard’s comments: “We regret that a respectful discussion of personal viewpoints became a distraction from today’s news. ESPN is fully committed to diversity and welcomes Jason Collins’ announcement.” Naturally, Buzzfeed’s Kate Arthur ripped ESPN anyway for not sufficiently falling into line: “So no apology from Broussard …. ESPN got itself into this ridiculous, impossible situation here by relying on one of its employee’s religious beliefs to inform a discussion about the huge Collins news …. What I would like to know, therefore, is why they put Broussard on the air to discuss his personal feelings about Collins, homosexuality, and Christianity, rather than his area of professional expertise — basketball — in the first place.” Arthur went on a rampage, calling Broussard “punitive, unforgiving,” and lamenting that “Collins’ beautiful announcement” had been tarnished by ESPN’s “outdated, homophobic pit of its own making.”

Broussard’s opinion was verboten according to the left. Granderson’s was not. The right was happy to air both opinions. Yet the left thinks that Broussard was way out of bounds. That’s because the goal of the left in overplaying the Jason Collins coming out party – a presidential call? Really? – is to portray those who disagree on homosexuality as bigots and homophobes who want to deny people like Collins happiness. Broussard never even remotely suggested that Collins should not have come out. He repeatedly stated that the time was ripe for Collins to come out. Virtually everyone on the right agrees with that general perspective. But Broussard violated the most taboo of all standards: he suggested that he had a different moral view than that of the left. And so now his job may be in jeopardy.

When it comes to tyranny and tolerance, the case of Chris Broussard is far more telling than that of Jason Collins. It is the left that wants tyranny of expression. Tolerance only extends to those deemed worthy by the left.

American Christians Surrender To Islam

The growing trend of Pastors, Politicians and Parishoners converting to, or compromising the Muslim faith with the God of The Bible.

Let’s face it, Christianity has lost it’s salt in the West.  It is become a lukewarm limp noodle that will not stand for the God of the Bible, Jesus Christ, The Gospel, The Commandments or against sin.  Instead, the wet tissue paper of today’s Christian church stands for ‘tolerance’, ‘diversity’, ‘acceptance’ and ‘love’ while adhering to a Satanic deception that Christians should not judge sin, or right from wrong.  The number of American Christians I have heard that say proselytizing or preaching the Gospel is ‘offensive’ to non-Christians and should not be done, is epidemic.  They buy the media’s argument that trying to convert others to Christianity is a sin, while nary a word about the conversion of Christians in the West to Islam and Hinduism.  II Timothy 3:5  is what the Christian church in America is become, and how we have arrived at the point that embracing homosexuality and even perverting the God-ordained institution of marriage IN the church is growing in acceptance.

Greater Christianity in America no longer even stands for itself.  It has become a lip-service faith.  A  hybrid of the secular materialistic society that dominates our culture.  Gone is the focus of doing Matthew 28: 19-20.  Missionary funding and support for preaching the gospel takes a back seat to bigger monuments to self;  ’great works of the Lord’ focused on getting more bodies into pews and offerings into plates than transforming lives with the Gospel.    Giant mega buildings with coffee shops and ATM’s in the lobby designed to draw thousands that sit empty and unused most of the week.  Televangelists and false preachers beg their members for money for personal lavish royal lifestyles.  Convenience, programs and perks make church more a social club than a place to sharpen iron for the task of a way of life we have been called to.  Instead the people want to hear smooth and easy things for itching ears.

So too has arisen the political Left church – whose doctrines are a melding of Marxist philosophy with the Beatittudes of the Sermon on the Mount that champion what they say is Christian Socialism.   Those that do say they adhere to the bible, are more intent it seems to tear other Christians apart, hide themselves from the world and fight or eschew others in the faith over matters of doctrine, catechism and understanding, rather than standing against sin.

Divorce, adultery, addictions, abortion, homosexuality are as practiced in the church in America as it is in the collapsing society at large.

So is it any wonder, that now we hear American pastors, preachers and televangelists equating Islam as equal to or superior to Christianity?  Should we be surprised that a new heresy of Chrislam is being pushed and promoted by the leadership of large Christian churches and denominations?  Does it alarm any in the faith that former American Christians find no power in Christianity, and are flocking to Islam and converting to a faith that stands for the purpose of conquering and to conquer with the bow and the sword?

I continue to be amazed at how God moves His true servants with a message that He wants a remnant to hear.  A pastor friend of mine wrote an observation last week about this very subject – and his essay was followed by one story after another that illustrated his point to an alarming perfection.  A pattern is emerging as America and the West are continually given over to strong delusion to believe a lie, and the desire to follow those lies with eagerness because Christians are too busy following men, and not Scripture.

Becoming Muslim  

By Jim O’Brien

While passing through a line at an airport security check I witnessed an animated conversation between a male and female pair of security guards. Both were Americans, formerly Christians and he was questioning her decision to convert to Islam. She, at a loss to find a convincing answer threw up her hands and exclaimed, “It’s something you wouldn’t understand.”

You may be as perplexed as I am that any American, born in a country where freedom and justice have been highly valued, would choose to embrace Islam. You may be shocked to know that a wave of tens of thousands of people in the Western Culture have converted to Islam. Even more appalling is that 75 percent of those multiple thousands are women.

If the trend could be worse, it is. Most of these women gravitate to the more misogynistic groups where women have no rights. Yet they insist all the while that they feel liberated and free.

Abigail Esman, an award-winning author, has written a new book called Radical State: How Jihad is Winning Over Democracy in the West. Ms. Esman has studied many such women.

She writes that “most of these young women display little self-confidence or ability to define their own values and behavior-qualities that make them easily influenced by others, and susceptible especially to those who offer up a lifestyle option that relinquishes them from responsibility for their actions, that gives them a code of behavior and the ease of attributing what they do or wear or eat to God and not to self.”

Because the profiles of the converts are very similar, “recruiting by radical Muslims is made so easy-and is-performed virtually programmatically.”

BBC reports that, “Muslim women are targeted by extremist recruiters for jihad precisely for their willingness to follow the advice of more ‘knowledgeable’ Muslims and the commands and demands of Muslim men.”

Why are such women so valuable to Muslim extremists? The answer was given by Zubeidat Tsarnaev, mother of the Boston marathon bombing suspect in a CNN interview. She said, “If they are going to kill him. I don’t care. My oldest son is killed, so I don’t care. I don’t care if my youngest son is going to be killed today. I want the world to hear this. And, I don’t care if I am going to get killed too. And I will say Allahu Akbar!”

Muslim extremists are looking for women so lacking in values and so easily influenced by others that they will raise a child to be sacrificed on the altar of Muslim jihad. And they are finding them in the Western Culture.

When the Apostle Paul preached to Gentiles in Galatia many were converted to the rational faith of Christianity. Some of those who had been enslaved to pagan gods found freedom in Christianity. But freedom is hard to maintain. It requires taking responsibility for self. So some of the new Christians sought out new masters to whom they could become enslaved again. Paul admonished them when he wrote, “O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth…”

Paul was shocked that free people would volunteer to become slaves again. No rational person would give up obedience to truth to become enslaved to a man unless he was mesmerized or hypnotized.

So we are as shocked in the 21st Century as Paul was in the 1st. There are beings among us with the body of a human but lacking the spirit of freedom. They seek bridles and chains to be led by unscrupulous tyrants. They have gained a foothold; may they never gain dominance in the land of the free.

Well Jim, my friend, when the leadership of the largest congregations and denominations in America start preaching that Allah and The Father of the Bible are one and the same – is it any wonder that this people would sell themselves into the slavery of Islam?

Pastor Rick Warren Says Allah and God Are One in the Same

Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California is the eighth largest church in the United States with an average attendance of 20,000 or more.  Rick Warren is the founder and senior pastor of this mega church.  He is also known for his popular book and program of church growth known as The Purpose Driven Church.

He has built his temple of thousands on a platform of liberal theology.  His preaching is more emotionally based than spiritually based which is how, according to Rick Warren, you build a big church.  The bottom line of his philosophy is that it is more important to build a big church than teach sound biblical theology.

In his typical liberal fashion, Pastor Rick Warren has joined a movement known as King’s Way.  The movement’s goal is to bring Christians and Muslims together without either group trying to proselytize or convert the other.

As part of this effort, Warren announced that he wants to create a set of principles that both evangelical Christians and Muslims could agree to in the effort to bring churches and mosques closer together.  One of those principles is that we both worship the same God.  In other words, God and Allah are one in the same deity.

Sorry Pastor Rick Warren but you couldn’t be more wrong.  If you really believe this, it demonstrates just how far from the Bible you have strayed.

Yes, I know that Muslims trace their history back to the Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Jews and Christians trace their history back to Isaac, also the son of Abraham.  Warren used this common history as the basis of making his statement on God and Allah being one and the same.

However, the Muslim view of Allah and is not the same as the Christian view of God.  Here are some major differences:

• Allah is one in substance and person where God is one in substance yet three persons in the Godhead.
• One of the persons in the Christian Godhead is Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
• In Islam, Jesus was all human who was a prophet whose message has become corrupted.
• Christianity is based upon Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection.  Islam believes that Jesus did not die on the cross but did bodily ascend into heaven (it was one of his disciples).

There are many other differences, but I listed these as they are critical to the Christian faith.  Christianity is based upon the fact that Jesus was God incarnate who died on the cross, was resurrected from the dead and ascended to the right hand of the throne of God.  Islam does not recognize Jesus’ deity, death and resurrection.

So who exactly does Rick Warren worship?  Does he worship God and Jesus Christ or does he worship Allah who denies the deity of Christ?  If he worships God, then he cannot believe that God and Allah are one and same.  If he worships Allah, then he is not a Christian.  You can’t have it both ways.

But it doesn’t stop there, Americans refuse to accept the fact Jihadist Islam is at war with us, and seeks to kill, main, and subjugate by force.

Man Shouts Allah Akbar and Tries to Cut Rabbi’s Throat: Police Say Motive Unclear

It’s another one of those baffling mysteries. Muslims attack non-Muslims while shouting Allah Akbar and no one can figure out a motive.

Agnes Thibault-Lecuivre, a spokeswoman for the Paris prosecutor’s office, said the two victims had been wearing Jewish skullcaps, and the attacker was detained after a chase through the synagogue. The Simon Wiesenthal Center, which monitors anti-Semitic incidents worldwide, said in a statement that the assailant screamed “Allah-u-Akbar” — or “God is great” — during the attack.

The rabbi, who is in his late 40s, was recovering from surgery for a neck injury and his 18-year-old son sustained lesser injuries in the attack. The assailant was of Iranian origin, and an official investigation was underway to determine a possible motive.

Neck injury is the Washington Post’s delicate way of saying that he tried to cut Rabbi Baruch d’Epinay’s throat.

The motive is incomprehensible. The one thing we can be sure of is that Islam has nothing to do with it. The media is emphasizing the loony angle because the Muslim attacker was a patient, but a Muslim attacking a Rabbi is not a mental breakdown, it’s conventional enough behavior. There have been plenty of Muslim attacks on Jews in Europe. Major Muslim leaders have called for doing far worse than slashing two men with a boxcutter.

But once we’ve dismissed the Islamic motive and focused on the loony issue,why was the Muslim slasher committed to a psychiatric hospital in the first place?

“He was detained on 28 March after being arrested for” the damage committed on the astronomical clock of the cathedral of Lyon, “said another source.

So it’s a real interfaith issue.

What was his entirely secular reason for attacking the church clock? He complained that the clock was interfering with his prayers.

Then there are the Islamic countries within our country that serve as Jihad training camps, open and in our faces with the permission of our own Government.

Islamabergs arise all over America.  Islamic Jihad Training Camps dot the landscape under the permissive eyes of the federal Government.

Hidden in the picturesque Catskills Mountains, in Hancock, NY, siting on more than 80 acres of land, surrounded by trees, rolling hills, lakes and, most importantly, armed guards that protect it, is a city within a city. Its Islamic leaders call it “The Town of Islamberg.” Located at 2732 Roods Creek Road, Hancock, NY, the Town of Islamberg is more like a country within a country.

It’s an Islamic community, located about 3 hours from New York City. It has set itself up as its own city-state, with its own laws, its own government (its own mayor, deputy mayor and 5 town council members; government departments of “Land and Development,” “Finance,” “Education” and even a “Medical Services” department), as well as its own military. The Islamic council members are not elected, of course. They are self-appointed demagogues who rule their community with the iron fist of Islamic law. There is no Sheriff Andy, no Barney Fife, no Aunt Bee in this town.

The group behind this initiative is an organization called Muslims of the Americas (MOA)—an organization, by the way, that was once listed as a terrorist organization by the United States Department of State. The group’s founder, Sheik Gilani, fashions himself as a direct descendent of Muhammad. He was the man to whom Wall Street journalist Danny Pearl was on his way to meet in Lahore, Pakistan on January 22, 2002, hunting for al Qaeda connections, when he was abducted and slaughtered by an Islamic extremist.

MOA has nearly three-dozen villages, camps and Islamic compounds scattered around the United States, all of varying sizes and population, in Texas, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, California and Tennessee. But this camp in Hancock, which also serves as their headquarters, is the first to be so brazen to set up its own Islamic government. And the one thing they all have in common: This is where everyone–-men, women and children–-prepare for Jihad against America. So, please join me in taking a moment to thank those millions of ass holes that voted for an administration that will NO DOUBT welcome more and more Towns of Islambergs and Islamvilles all over the country with open arms.

Want to know just a wee bit more (you can get more detail from the link provided below) about the MOA thinks and preaches about Jews? Just a snippet: “Jews are an example of human Satans. In the U.S. there are now thousands of temples where Satan is worshipped.”

How ‘bout a small sampling of what they think of Christians? “By having put their god on a crucifix as opposed to executing Satan, they not only have blasphemed against the Wisdom and Judgment of God Almighty, but reduced Him to a role of subservience to Satan.”

America? “America is no longer the home of the free and the land of the brave. The constitution and the Bill of Rights are just pieces of paper that don’t mean a damn thing anymore, unless you are white and an anti-Muslim hatemonger of course.”

Violence? “We must put a stop to the violence and aggression against our peoples by force if necessary. We must work with each other and collectively refuse to accept the injustice and aggression of the West and its protégé, Israel.”

Naive American citizens of all faiths, government officials and of course our media obviously embrace this crap. I guess the desire to be known as a bridge-builder is more important than confronting extremism, and the fear of being called Islamaphobic is more important than protecting our culture and national security.

Here’s what the course of action should be:

First, how ‘bout we freeze their assets, and take their property. We then have our military empty these camps and towns and peacefully escort them all out of this country and back to their 7th century cave dwelling lifestyles, and then put the names of every man, woman and child on a no-fly list.

Second, if they refuse to leave peacefully, we air-strike first and then bulldoze their compounds.

This is America. We are Americans. We cannot allow this to continue on American soil. People who come here, who live here, must do so because they want to be American. We cannot co-exist in America with people who do not want to be American.

Osama bin Laden went through so much trouble, time, training and expense to bomb and terrorize, America into submission. And little did he know that all he had to do was buy property in America and start forming his own Islamic government. Apparently, it’s as simple as that. The guy wasn’t too bright after all, now, was he?

An American Holocaust – Working Our Way Up To Auschwitz

Abortion, eugenics, Death Panels – steps already conditioning society to accept the mass death of classes of ‘undesirables’.

While the majority of churches are silent and the rest busy fighting other Christians over matters of doctrine, a genocide has been taking place on their watch with their near-consent.  An entire generation of Americans have been butchered in the womb since abortion was legalized, and the removal of the consequence for illicit sex turned into a form of birth control, is now seen as a Constitutional Right by the majority.

The horrors of what goes on inside American abortion mills was layer front and center at the trial of Kermit Gosnell, horrors that the ObamaMedia has deliberately refused to report or make mention of.  The testimony lays bare the sickening horror that Americans would rather remain ignorant of, and like perhaps the German people of 70 years ago, will plead they didn’t know what was occurring at clinics in their own neighborhoods.

A culture of death will not stop at removing what is inconvenient in terms of pregnancy, history shows us that a desensitized people will then move on to removing other people and classes who they see as a burden, or whom they disagree with politically.

Richard F. Miniter at the American Thinker has some content thoughts to consider regarding America’s march towards despotism and a pathway to mass death.

 

Working Up to Auschwitz

A demon has been revealed in twenty-first-century Philadelphia, and the three broadcast networks have been enforcing a policy of silence about the discovery.  So have most major newspapers.

One reason may be that the trial of late-term abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell for multiple counts of murder is about an African-American killing mainly African-American babies — and so the common sense among liberals, or, as a friend of mine would say, the “coven-sense,” is that such a story disparages that community.  This is something newspapers are loath to do.  In much the same manner that they cannot dwell upon the causes of hand gun violence in inner city black communities.  Or perhaps they view these killings as prophylactic: one cure for out-of-wedlock births.

But perhaps an even more telling reason for ignoring the Gosnell story is that among the terrible details is revealed the fact that many, many babies being aborted late-term survive the process — not just a tiny few, as pro-abortionists keep insisting.  And so these innocent little souls have to be murdered.

In Dr. Gosnell’s clinic, typically by cutting their heads off.  In one instance, a child arrived on the table with its eyes and jaw torn off by Gosnell’s forceps.  While this helpless, sinless, creature lay writhing on the table, screaming, Dr. Gosnell gestured impatiently at an assistant – do something about that.

How many children were so murdered?  I believe that Gosnell’s charged with seven counts, but testimony indicates there may have been a hundred — maybe more, maybe a lot more.  And so the liberal press, ever supportive of a woman’s right to “choose,” just can’t have that known.

Then, too, let us remember that in the Illinois state legislature Barack Obama consistently voted against allowing these children any protection.  That governors, like Cuomo in New York, have consistently opposed any restrictions on the practice of late-term abortions.  That an official of Planned Parenthood recently suggested that the right to kill children extends well beyond birth.  Why not?  If it’s right to kill them when they’re minutes old and screaming, why not kill them when they’re six months old or a year?

It’s all apiece with the liberal culture of death.  In Holland, reports exist that older people refuse hospitalization out of fear that a doctor will kill them.  In England, the National Health Service is placing helpless elderly on what is euphemistically called the “Pathway” and refusing them medication, food, and water.  Under ObamaCare, we will have much the same, with what Sarah Palin called “Death Panels” deciding who lives and who dies.  It’s just that some people, in the liberal view, deserve to be killed.  Or put on the “Pathway.”

How can you kill a child?  I cannot fathom it.  At one time I was very opposed to one class of children — grandchildren.  I wasn’t old enough to be a grandfather.  I still didn’t know what I wanted to be when I grew up.  So my wife had to literally drag me along, sulky, morose, and bitter, to the hospital to see my first grandchild.

But when I walked into that room and my beaming daughter put her tiny baby in my arms, all that vanished, and I was in love all over again.  Together with our own newborns again from thirty years in the past.  Indeed, I was transported.  This, I confirmed in that instant, is what this world is all about.  And I just can’t shake the feeling that if someone from outside just held one of those children for a moment before Gosnell had him or her killed, that person, rich or poor, black or white, conservative, Christian, Jewish, agnostic, or not, would fight to the death to save them.  But because they weren’t held and loved, because they never got the chance to transport that someone, they died screaming.  And the fact that they did is so very sad — not just for them, but for us.

On the other end of life’s spectrum, we have a guy I’ll call “Buddy.”  I met him while enrolled in a cardiac rehab program at a local hospital.  It is a wonderful place to go.  Staffed by RNs and containing some special versions of the machines you see in gyms, the staff reviews your medical records and works out a program of rigorous exercise to restore cardiac health.  They’re very pleasant, but you don’t argue with them; they’re the experts, and you’re the patient, who, left to your own devices, let yourself get out of shape.

I usually work out next to Buddy.  Buddy is precisely the same age I am but was struck with MS ten or so years ago.  Today he’s twisted up like a pretzel, can walk only with a walker or two canes, and weighs almost nothing.  One day after we became friendly, I watched him struggle to lift a free weight to his shoulder.  It wasn’t an easy go; he had the trembles in a big way, and his eyes were just about starting out of his head.

But I have a talent — often regretted, I should add — of saying what comes to mind.  “Buddy,” I asked “what do you expect to get out of this program?”

He turned that emaciated head on that twisted spine and grinned up at me.  ”Rich, I expect to get back to one cane.  And won’t that be something?”  Then he laughed and laughed.

I wanted to cry, but I laughed along.  How wonderful was that spirit?  That’s what this world is about, too.  Spirit and the precious life that gives rise to it.  And much like that first meeting with my granddaughter, I was transported — went home feeling ten feet high — after listening to Buddy laugh at his affliction.  Life, as Christ told us in the Sermon on the Mount, was good.  Your father wouldn’t give you anything that wasn’t — would he?

But what would that spirit, that good life, count for with a “Pathway” in England, or how would a Death Panel in the United States view Buddy’s twisted body and inability to get around on his own?  The answer darkens one’s soul, and all I can be certain of is that if we are to be men in this life, we have to defend that spirit, those lives.  Those to be born, the elderly, the infirm and ill.  Everybody.

Shakespeare said it:

Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known.

Finally, it is wise to recall that long before the death camps, the Nazis began murdering homosexuals, and then every retarded child whose parents they could convince to bring in for “treatment.”  Nazis, shall we say, didn’t hatch their “final solution” overnight; they worked up to the idea of Auschwitz by gradually acclimatizing selected Germans to the idea of killing whole classes of people by killing only certain types of people first.

All in the name of a greater good, of course.

And I’m afraid that that’s exactly what’s happening here with our babies and our old.  We’re working up to Auschwitz — and, like the Nazis who engineered it, to an eternity in hell.

 

The Church’s Failed Influence Of Maintaining American Culture

Christian freedom is fading in America, and soon the faith itself will be shoved underground by an oppressive government where only the doctrines of the state are allowed to be preached.

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” – John Adams

” Where there is no religion, there is no morality…With the loss of religion…the ultimate foundation of confidence is blown up; and of life, liberty and property are buried in ruins” – Timothy Dwight

I’ve been crying aloud the warning for years that the church in America was losing it’s salt and influence in maintaining our culture.  Sadly, when speaking about this topic at myriad churches and public rallies and events – the vast majority of Christians are disinterested.  In counties where the Ten Commandments were threatened to be removed, asking pastors of hundreds of churches to come and lead the community in prayer were met with silence and indifference.  Some did not want to “rock the boat” by appearing to be ‘political’.   In one county alone, after contacting over 100 Christian churches – only 1 pastor came.  That should have been my wake up call that the Christian church in America was fading into irrelevance.  For if those that pay their Savior lip service each week would not stand on the bedrock of His Word as the foundation of our civil society – why should I expect the church to stand against state-imposed homosexual marriage and homosexual doctrine being forced upon society?

As it is – the greater Christian church itself sat in decades of ridiculous prosperity and riches while the nation practiced infanticide, killing hundreds of MILLIONS of babies murdered in the womb.  An entire generation of Americans murdered in the most precious and safest place that God ordained, simply for the sake of convenience for a hedonistic people to have illicit sex without consequences.  The churches by and large?  They hear, see and speak no evil against the evil being practiced in their midst.

Are Christians become as biblically illiterate and ignorant as the secular hedonists?  Do we think we will not be held to account for losing this gift of liberty and allowing such evil to go unchallenged? Do Christians now believe their is no judgment for their indifference and apathy?

I believe that it is the tiny remnant of Christians that have not turned their heads and have stood in the gap, that God has not judged the nation prevented it to suffer in collapse and ruin by the heinous weight of it’s national sins.  But scripture is clear – at some point the cup of iniquity overflows, and even God’s anointed would suffer along with a nation of people that were called by His Name – that refused to repent and do those things that God expected His people to be doing in the first place.

When reading a majority of the Founders, they understood that the civil society and liberty itself could only exist if the whole people were a moral and upright people who were self governed by God.  In modern parlance, Christians were intended to be the Jedi Knights of safeguarding the Republic by maintaining watch over the culture and keeping it on the straight and narrow path.  As the church’s influence faded – so too did your liberty and freedom.

And the church itself doesn’t seem to mind – as long as their collection plates keep getting filled and their II Timothy 3 generation of members are entertained with the smooth and easy things their itching ears want to hear.

The American Thinker has nailed the issue of the fading influence of the church in America.

The Church’s Fading Influence on American Culture

By Simon de Hundehutte

It seems people have misunderstood, as well as misrepresented, the church’s role and influence in “secular society.”  The early Christians lived in the secular society of Rome, but by heralding the good news of salvation, what some might call “thumping,” their words along with their deeds changed all of society of their day.  In present-day America, however, secularists have taken over and changed the rules of the debate on so many key cultural issues.

Religion, or more accurately, the Christian way of life, is being shoved out of not only politics but the American culture.  We believers are being forced to accept things anathema to our way of thinking and living — accept them or be labeled “haters” or, more recently, “thumpers.”

Every Christian is keenly aware of the Great Commission, where Jesus commanded, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 28:19).  Christians in the earliest days of the Church did not keep silent about their faith, bringing it with them (and many times at great cost) into the public arena.  St. Paul debated at the illustrious Mars Hill with Greek and Athenian scholars (see Acts, Chapter 17).  Many there, in fact, welcomed his insights and reasoning skills.  Others, including both civic and religious leaders of the day, wanted him to keep his views to himself.

Think about it:  Christianity in a few hundred years after the resurrection of its namesake had changed the entire Roman Empire.  And certainly not by keeping its beliefs bottled up, only to be uncorked for an hour or two every Sunday.  No, the Good News was front-and-center in a believer’s life, sometimes even shouted from the mountaintops (when the spirit so moved).

But, I am afraid the days of free speech for Bible-believing Christians may be quickly winding down.  If the Supreme Court sanctions gay marriage, God and country will both soon fade away.  America will fast become like Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s Germany.  It may be that the day is near when any church unwilling to preach the State’s “gospel” will not be allowed to exist.  (Woe to churches which currently meet on public property — in school auditoriums, for example.)

If we Christian’s are no longer able to share what the God of the Universe has revealed to us, how can anyone’s thinking on gay marriage or abortion or taking care of the planet or whatever be shaped or swayed?

I walked past a parked car the other day that was plastered with bumper stickers championing a far-left point of view.  One that especially grabbed my attention said, “The last time religion and politics mixed, People got burned at the stake!”

After pondering this for a second, I thought, I wish I could meet the driver of this car and let him know that a more accurate statement would be, “The last time religion and politics mixed, William Wilberforce freed the slaves.”  It has been Gospel-believing Christians, applying the tenets of the Word of God, who have taken on the huge challenges of humanity and, many times through much personal sacrifice (think martyrs), have freed many from bondage.

In the book of Romans, Paul challenges people to “be transformed by the renewing of your thinking.”  (Romans 12:2).  Will the Christian way of thinking be welcome in the “court of public opinion,” or will we just settle into being a country filled with people who have a bumper-sticker mentality, never having a thought beyond the cleverest saying we can slap onto the tail end of our vehicles.

 

“America Needs A Spiritual Cleansing” – Rand Paul

Senator Rand Paul says America needs a, “spiritual cleansing of the people” and explains that “salvation” doesn’t come through elected leaders.

Amen and AMEN to what the good Senator from Kentucky has to say. Now if only more Americans would understand and live the – we might have a chance to pull a Nineveh in this country before God pulls our plug for our national and collective wickedness.

Exclusive: Rand Paul Says America Needs A “Spiritual Cleansing”

The Brody File

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, Senator Rand Paul says America needs a, “spiritual cleansing of the people” and explains that “salvation” doesn’t come through elected leaders.The Brody File spent a couple days with Rand Paul and his family down in Kentucky. Rand Paul’s wife (Kelley Paul) sat for the interview as well at their home in Bowling Green Kentucky.

Video here.

Senator Rand Paul: “I think it’s important that people know that for the country to get better it needs more than just politicians. Politicians aren’t enough and it needs resurgence through churches, through revivals through a spiritual cleansing of the people.

…“Changing a particular law is not going to make us a better people but that comes from the people themselves.”

…“I don’t want people to think that salvation comes through elected leaders. It doesn’t.”

…“What’s the number one cause of poverty in America? It’s having kids before you’re married. Can you have a law to prevent that? I don’t think any law even if you did have a law couldn’t prevent it from happening. We have to convince kids that it’s a big huge mistake not only from a religious point of view but from an economic point of view that it’s not a good idea to have kids before you’re married. The hard part is then people say you’re harsh and you’re against single moms. Well, I’m not against single moms. I just want to talk to them before they become the single mom. I want to talk to them when they’re 17 years old and convince them wait, get married and your life will be better and it’s a better way to do things.”

…”People say you shouldn’t talk about moral issues. Well, I think there are moral issues that no law will be able to fix but there’s no reason why a political leader can’t also have some impact in moral issues that really the law may not be able to fix but maybe by me saying that the marriage unit, the marriage unit, the family unit is an important structure, it’s been with us for thousands of years and we shouldn’t give up on that.”

Obama’s Easter Service: Religious Conservatives Are Racists, Gender Slaves, Homophobes and Anti-Immigrant.

Reverend’s Message at Obama’s Easter Service Says The Religious Right want blacks “in the back of the bus,” women “back in the kitchen”, “Gays in the closet” and immigrants “back on their side of the border.”

As we can expect from His Heinous, Barrack The First – after issuing a proclamation that today, Easter Sunday is “Cesar Chavez Day” – he and his brood attend a political rally masquerading as an Easter Service.  A political congregation of Leftists pretending to be a Christian church.  Instead of a sermon about the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the Hope Christians have in it, yet another Obama pastor; the Rev. Dr. Luis Leon - offered an anti-Christian Conservative screed, making outrageous claims that promote the religion of Obama’s class and race-war pushing “Progressives” or as I refer to them:  National Socialists.

From pool reports, not only did the Sermon castigate Religious Conservatives, but it redefined what the Resurrection of Jesus was all about.  Instead of the focus being on the Risen Christ and Life and Hope in Him – instead the message was about an “Easter Vision”, which admonished the attendants to see the world and reality in “a whole new way”.  And what way is that?  Well, it’s a new way that denounces the ‘old ways of the past’ (sound familiar?) and castigates Religious Conservatives for being racists, sexists, nativists and homophobes.

Prayers were then offered for Obama and the Muslim leaders in the Middle East and the rulers in Haiti.

I suppose it will not be long before we hear about prayers being said TO Obama.  After all, there are songs of worship and praise to him being taught grade school kids in public schools.

PASTOR AT OBAMA’S EASTER CHURCH SERVICE: ‘CAPTAINS OF THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT’ WANT BLACKS ‘IN THE BACK OF THE BUS,’ WOMEN ‘BACK IN THE KITCHEN’

The pastor at the Washington, D.C. church where the Obama family celebrated Easter on Sunday said members of the religious right want blacks “in the back of the bus,” women “back in the kitchen” and immigrants “back on their side of the border.”

“It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious right are always calling us back…for blacks to be back in the back of the bus…for women to be back in the kitchen…for immigrants to be back on their side of the border,” Rev. Dr. Luis Leon said in his sermon, according to the White House press pool report.

Reuters reporter Jeff Mason tweeted that Leon also said the religious right wants gays in the closet.

Christ Ignored For The Religion of the Left: Google Favors A Marxist Over Jesus on Easter, Obama Decrees Today Is Cesar Chavez Day

Obama and the major media proves that the real religion of Democrats and ‘Progressives” is Leftism; Marx-ism, Social-ism, Maos-im, Commun-ism.  They worship their ideology – not the Lord – whether they admit it or not.

This was holy week for those who revere the scriptures (Passover, Unleavened bread, Good Friday, Easter) – the State Media illustrates their disdain for any faith from the bible.  While by itself this slight can be discounted as a sign of anti-Chrisian/Jewish bias, but collectively over the last decade or so – today’s omission of acknowledging Whom most are celebrating today, and replaced with a Leftist icon reveals the fact that the religion of Democrats and Liberals is their political religion of the Left in all it’s doctrines.  They worship the State and their ideology above all else.

So on Easter Sunday – Obama issues Presidential Decree that today is Cesar Chavez Day, and Google ignores Jesus for Chavez.

While this author keeps the biblical feasts, I am disgusted what Google has done today.  It’s boycott time.

My pal John has a great rant about it today.  Thanks John.

On Easter Sunday 2013, Google honors an Alinsky Radical Instead of Jesus

by John Galt
March 31, 2013 11:55 ET

Just when one thinks that our nation’s corporations can not suck up enough to the Alinsky-Obama radical leftists, here comes Google on Easter Sunday:

Seriously?

Cesar Chavez, a learned disciple of Saul Alinksy and his tactics is Google’s choice on Easter Sunday upholding the Imperial Leader Obama’s edict that March 31st from here on out be known as “Cesar Chavez Day” in a proclamation issued last Friday:

Presidential Proclamation — Cesar Chavez Day

CESAR CHAVEZ DAY, 2013

- – – – – – -

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

 

A PROCLAMATION

 

Every year, Americans all across our country pause on March 31 to remember a man who made justice his life’s calling. Growing up the son of migrant farm workers who lost everything in the Great Depression, Cesar Chavez knew hard work and hardship from an early age. He labored long hours for little pay, taking odd jobs to help his family get by and forgoing a formal education to follow the crop cycles. But where others might have given up or given in, Cesar Chavez never lost hope in the power of opportunity. He lived each day by a belief as old as America itself — the idea that with courage and determination, any of us can reach beyond our circumstances and leave our children something better.

 

More than anything, we remember Cesar Chavez for lending voice to the voiceless. When no one seemed to care about the invisible farm workers who picked our Nation’s food, beset by poverty and cheated by growers, a courageous man dedicated to dignity stood up and spoke out. Alongside Dolores Huerta and fellow organizers, he rallied a generation of workers around “La Causa,” marching and fasting and boycotting for fair pay and protections on the job. They fought through decades of setbacks and fierce resistance. But through every trial, Cesar Chavez refused to curb his ambitions or scale back his hope. Step by step, march by march, he helped lead a community of farm workers to make the change they sought.

 

Cesar Chavez’s legacy lives on at Nuestra Señora Reina de la Paz, his home and workplace, which I was proud to designate a National Monument last October. It also lives on in those who remember his central teaching: that when workers are treated fairly and humanely, our country grows more just, opportunity becomes more equal, and all of us do better. Because even with the strides we have made, we know there is more left to do when working men and women toil in poverty without adequate protections or simple respect. We know there is more to do when our broken immigration system forces workers into a shadow economy where companies can ignore labor laws and undermine businesses following the rules. Fixing those problems means securing what Cesar Chavez fought for at La Paz. It means taking on injustice, making sure hard work is rewarded, and bringing more Americans into a rising middle class.

 

In 1966, when Cesar Chavez was struggling to bring attention to his cause, he received a telegram from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “As brothers in the fight for equality, I extend the hand of fellowship and goodwill,” he wrote. “We are with you in spirit and in determination that our dreams for a better tomorrow will be realized.” It is a story that reminds us how here in America, we are bound together not by the colors of our skin or the languages we speak, but by the values we share and the brighter future we seek for our children. So today, as we honor a man who risked everything to stand up for what he believed in, let us reflect on our common cause and recommit to moving forward together — as one Nation and one people.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 31, 2013, as Cesar Chavez Day. I call upon all Americans to observe this day with appropriate service, community, and education programs to honor Cesar Chavez’s enduring legacy.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this

twenty-ninth day of March, in the year of our Lord two thousand thirteen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-seventh.

 

BARACK OBAMA

This proclamation and the “honor” paid to this hero of illegals and unionists alike did not go unnoticed by the Daily Caller in their article this morning:

Google honors Cesar Chavez on Easter

But does Google know or care about Chavez’s affiliations or how the United Farm Worker’s union has developed close relations to extremist unions like the SEIU? Probably not and it is doubtful they have reviewed the history of his associations especially with one Saul Alinksy:

Cesar Chavez I know, but who is Saul Alinsky? I asked the same question 10 years ago after attending a Teatro Campesino production in Orange County. The theater company was inspired by Chavez and Dolores Huerta in the 1960s, and after the show, UFW activists led a series of call-and-response cheers: “Que viva Cesar Chavez! Que viva! Que viva Dolores Huerta! Que viva!”

Paeans to other Chicano icons followed. Then came a less-familiar blast: “Que viva Saul Alinsky!” The crowd roared its answer, but I was stumped. Alinsky wasn’t a surname I had heard during my Chicano upbringing. Saul, yes. But not Alinsky! As a history professor at Cypress College, I was too embarrassed to ask anyone in the crowd that day.

Later, I learned that Alinsky founded the Chicago-based Industrial Areas Foundation, which sent battle-tested organizers to train and develop local leaders on issues related to voting, discrimination and police brutality. In his classic treatise, “Rules for Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals,” Alinsky showed how working-class blacks and white ethnics could work together to end employer discrimination and municipal neglect.

For example, to influence elites holding power to make concessions, “Rules for Radicals” proposed the tactic of threatening to have community activists purchase 100 seats for a symphony performance in Rochester, N.Y. Beforehand, the attendees would enjoy bowls of baked beans with subsequent “obvious consequences” as they sat in their concert seats.

To persuade an upscale department store to change its discriminatory hiring practices, Alinsky suggested that protesters order all items in sight, have them shipped C.O.D., and then refuse delivery later. These two tactics signaled that long-standing privileges would be threatened if a community withheld basic rights from its most disadvantaged residents.

One of Alinsky’s disciples, Fred Ross, founded Community Service Organization chapters throughout California after World War II. In Los Angeles, the CSO worked with Chicano activists to promote English and citizenship classes, voter-registration drives, and get-out-the vote campaigns. To aid Edward R. Roybal’s election to the Los Angeles City Council in 1949, the CSO registered 12,000 new voters. Roybal became the first Mexican-American to sit on the City Council since the 1880s, and he later represented Los Angeles in Congress for 30 years.

One of Ross’ protégés was Cesar Chavez. Like his mentor, Chavez traveled the state developing CSO chapters and leaders. After asking community members to invite neighbors, co-workers and family to a house meeting, Chavez listened to their problems and organized them to demand redresses to their grievances. His success led Alinsky and Ralph Helstein, president of the United Packinghouse Workers of America, to summon Ross and Chavez to San Francisco in 1958 to discuss the creation of a CSO chapter in Ventura County. Helstein believed that a CSO there could buttress the UPWA’s efforts to combat the citrus industry’s exploitation of bracero guest worker

- From the Ventura County Star article “The Alinksy, Chavez, Obama Connection,” by Frank P. Barajas, November 2, 2008

In other words, the ties that bind, the historical connection of radicals, especially pro-Marxists like Dolores Huerta who would if empowered to do so force Google to share all of their operating profits with the poor and to become a unionized shop to support their ilk are still strong yet so-called capitalist corporations like Google could care less. Why? Let’s go to the United Farm Worker’s home page and see what kind of affiliations they support:

Besides the SEIU, the other groups highlighted all have a history of association with extremist left wing groups which are anti-business and in many cases anti-American or against our Constitution in their actions and proclamations. Interestingly enough, the “Change to Win” Hoffa founded splinter group allegedly has strong ties to George Soros’ groups and their causes and of course SEIU’s Andrew Stern.

It’s a good thing that I believe in the 1st Amendment and every corporation’s right to speak and act freely with their money, no matter how destructive to our freedom they might be. In response, for now, we the people have that same freedom and I might suggest an alternative search engine to voice one’s displeasure over Google’s choice to honor a radical over Jesus.

IXquik.com

For now, there is nothing forcing anyone to endure the extremist views of Google when doing something as simple as a web search because at some point they need to learn the lesson that political correctness does not always equal profit.

Liberty’s Absent Warriors

Where the heck is the Christian Church while America is being turned into a Godless totalitarian society??

America is being transformed into a Godless MarxoFascist Police State right in front of our eyes – and outside of some radio talk-show hosts ranting about it every weekday – the country is largely silent about where Obama is taking the nation while our liberties and rights are being systematically stripped away from us.  Where is the Christian church?  With the exception of some high-profile examples of companies like Chick Fillet and Hobby Lobby standing against the infringement of their right to the exercise of faith in how they run their businesses, church leadership is dead silent as evil is being declared good, and righteousness is being legislated into an evil.

God is speaking with warnings to His Servants who are attempting to wake up a lukewarm church to impending judgement.  They appear to be voices shouting from the wilderness as the larger extent of Christians in America continue to ignore or shut their ears to the warnings.

Chuck Baldwin and Dave Daubenmire today share sentiments that match mine, nearly verbatim.  Sadly to answer the question “Where is the church?” – appears most Christians only want to hear smooth and easy things.  The happy-happy, joy-joy theology from the mega-church memes of Joel Osteen and Rick Warren, is what the vast majority prefer to hear rather than the sound biblical principles that once forged our nation’s society.  Pastors do not want to rock the offering plates and tithes, or raise the ire of the government and potentially risk their 501C-3 status.

Liberty was first fought for from the pulpits in the Colonies.  It has to be defended in like manner.  If the church refuses to stand on biblical principles against tyranny – then this people have no hope of ever retaining what liberty they have left.

A people who refuse to be governed by God and who stand to defend that right at all costs, will be ruled by the tyranny of men, and subjugated by the same.

Christians, Please wake up!  America is in the throes of a burgeoning Police State

What is it going to take for pastors and churches to wake up and realize that America is in the throes of a burgeoning police state? Ladies and gentlemen, the long-standing veneration for law and order does not include blind submission to governmental abuse of power. Yet, it seems that very few Christian conservatives are even paying attention to what is happening before their very eyes.

For example, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has purchased over 2 billion rounds of hollow-point ammunition (enough to wage a 30-year war); the DHS has purchased over 7,000 AR-15s. The DHS calls them Personal Defense Weapons (PDW). These are the same semi-automatic rifles with high capacity magazines that when you and I buy them are called “assault rifles.” Plus, the DHS has purchased over 2,700 armored vehicles, the same kind that the US military uses in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Department of Defense (DOD) calls them MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected). They carry .50 caliber weapons that fire from inside the vehicle. The vehicle itself is impervious to mines and small-arms fire. They are the vehicle of choice for our combat troops in the Middle East.

Pray tell, why does the DHS need that kind of firepower? And who do they anticipate using all of this firepower on?

If all of that isn’t disconcerting enough, we have now learned that the DHS has spent 2 million dollars on producing shooting targets of American gun owners. These are called “non-traditional threat” targets. They include pregnant women, elderly citizens, mothers in playgrounds, and even little children. These targets are produced by a company called Law Enforcement Targets, Inc. The company calls these targets “No More Hesitation” targets.

What is the DHS planning to do? Turn the entire continental United States into one big giant Waco?

Can one imagine the reaction by the DHS if a company was producing shooting targets depicting law enforcement officers?

I guess another question I have is who are the people whose faces appear on these targets? Did they know they were being photographed to be used on a shooting target? Or were their images photoshopped? Whose mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, daughter, son, and child are being used for these targets? I wonder how many Americans whose loved ones appear on these targets know that the photographs of their family members are being used as targets for DHS agents to shoot at. And how would any of you like it if those targets bore the photographs of YOUR loved ones?

This is bizarre! If this wasn’t so very, very real, one would think that it was one big practical joke. But it is no joke!

While our own domestic federal police department (a blatantly unconstitutional entity, by the way) is arming itself to the teeth, our President and Vice President are in a full-court press trying to disarm the American citizenry of their most effective and efficient self-defense tool: the semi-automatic rifle. Are we supposed to believe that all of this is mere coincidence? It is true that I was born in the morning, but it was not yesterday morning!

Adding to our cause for concern is the way our veterans are being treated (or should I say mistreated) by the federal government. As far back as 2009, returning Iraq and Afghan War veterans have been labeled as potentially “dangerous extremists” by the DHS (along with people who are pro-life; people who support Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and yours truly; people who believe the US should get out of the UN; people who are opposed to the “New World Order;” people who believe in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ; etc.). Today, more and more veterans are being labeled with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), and other such names, and being told that they are not fit to possess a firearm.

In addition, under President Obama’s recent Executive Order, physicians, both military and civilian, are quizzing their patients regarding firearms and have the potential authority to write a derogatory diagnosis about a patient that could be used as an excuse for the government to deny his or her right to keep and bear arms. (If you have a physician that asks you any questions regarding firearms, my advice is to find another doctor immediately!)

My friends, our country is being transformed into an Orwellian society right before our eyes! All the while, most pastors and churches seem to be completely oblivious to it. And, of course, most of the reporters and journalists in the mainstream media are nothing more than compliant propagandists for anything Big-Government. The same is true for most educators in our major colleges and universities.

But it is the apathy, indifference, and blindness of our pastors and churches that is the most disconcerting. The most influential group of leaders in America is still the pastors–the trend away from traditional churches notwithstanding. There are over 300,000 evangelical churches in the United States. Can one imagine what would happen in this country if half of these pastors would get up in their pulpits this Sunday and sound the clarion call to stand up and fight these insidious encroachments against our liberties? What if 25% would? What would happen if only 10% would rise up and take a stand?

Dear Christian friend, how can you stay in a church where the pastor will not take a stand for your liberties? How can you give such a church your tithes and offerings? Do you not realize that any pastor and church that refuses to fight and protect your liberties is helping to put the shackles of tyranny and oppression around the necks of your families?

Regardless of how sound you believe your pastor to be doctrinally, or how educated he is, or how much Hebrew and Greek he knows, or how warm and caring he is, or how much you personally like him, if he is not willing to take a public stand for your liberties, he is a willing accomplice to the demise of our republic and the rise of totalitarianism in this land–as surely as the pastors of Germany were accomplices to the rise of Hitler’s Third Reich!

Christian, please wake up! A police state is being constructed before your very eyes. Your liberties are being systematically expunged. While you are waving your hands and praising Jesus, the enemies of liberty are laying the nets and traps around your homes and communities that are going to be used to enslave you. While you are fixated on your pastor and church staying doctrinally pure, the barbed-wire fences are being built around the camps in which your children and grandchildren will be incarcerated. While you sit comfortably on the padded pews in your heated and air conditioned church sanctuary and listen to an inspiring sermon that makes you feel warm and fuzzy all over, the sacred principles that protect your right to freely worship, and speak, and defend your family are disappearing.

Beyond that, not only are many thousands of pastors not resisting this emerging police state; they are actively and enthusiastically joining with the big-government toadies in helping to eviscerate our freedoms. Is your pastor one of these? If so, you might as well be listening to sermons written by Joseph Goebbels.

Big-Government propagandists love to couch submission to oppression under the guise of patriotic duty to law and order. But submission to oppression is not patriotic; it is imbecilic! And make no mistake about it: the attempt to outlaw, ban, and confiscate our firearms, especially our semi-automatic rifles, has nothing to do with law and order; it has everything to do with overt oppression. To such an egregious encroachment against our liberty there can be no submission, only determined, resolute resistance.

And a similar cry from Coach Dave Daubenmire today also.  Where I differ from him in understanding, is that his optimism of ‘rebuilding a nation’ after we are rendered to dust is not biblical.  We SHOULD NOT attempt to rebuild that which God Himself allows to be torn down.  This is as true of a nation as it was for the Temple system in Jerusalem.

OUR SILENCE IS DESTROYING THIS NATION!

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. -Rom 1

We have no one to blame but ourselves.

To put it as the Bible does, we are without excuse.

We. Me and you. Our silence, our cowardice, and our unwillingness to take some heat has cooked our own goose.

We won’t be able to say we didn’t see it coming, because we did.

We won’t be able to say we couldn’t have done anything about it because we didn’t even try.

We won’t be able to say it wasn’t our fault, because it was.

Silence isn’t golden, it’s yellow. The only thing necessary for evil men to triumph is for good men to do nothing. To permit is to participate. For he who knows to do right and not to do it, to him it is sin.

Sin. There is that word. Our silent acquiescence to the destruction of this nation is without excuse.

Sin. A word we have stricken from the public discourse in America, and a word that has been put in the closet in most of our churches.

Sin. The cause of every misery this nation is about to endure.

“Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.” -Isaiah 1:4

We knew better. We knew that the road to hell was paved with good intentions, yet we permitted the god-haters to lead us down the yellow-brick road only to discover that OZ was only a figment of someone’s imagination.

We didn’t hand-off to our children what had been handed off to us and as a result we wake-up daily to a nation that we no longer recognize.

We love to blame the government, or the Congress. We point our fingers at the senators, or the courts. We blame the Devil, or the Devil’s spawn in the Whitehouse. We blame TV, and the media. We throw our stones at “rock music” or violent video games. We blame guns and drugs, divorce and debauchery, or race and religion.

But we never blame ourselves. We never look deep in the eyes of the man in the mirror, and trace the wrinkles carved on the surface of our skin to the self-inflicted wounding of turning from Biblical principles as the cause for the deep scars in America’s soul.

We did it. You and I. We spent so much time looking the other way that we can no longer find our way. We have watched our children walk the well-intentioned path for so long that it is almost impossible to rescue them as this nation slides into hell.

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” -Psalm 9:17

One nation under God. In God we trust! God bless America!

Who are we kidding?

Why should God bless America?

We are a deluded nation. Everything that we see in this nation is false.

The stock market is soaring as the nation sinks. Economic prosperity is an illusion. We produce nothing in America any longer except for porn and debt. The market will tank. It happened before and it will happen again. Yet you remain in the market. You think things will get better because the government tells you it will. You are deluded.

Education expenses are skyrocketing in America. The more we spend on education, the more sheep-like our children become. We teach them that debt is the path to the American dream. Schools teach our children foolishness and we continue to pay for it…the higher the education the lower the wisdom. Professing ourselves to be wise we have children who have become fools.

The dollar is being destroyed before our very eyes. Folks find nothing strange about believing in the security of the stock market or the American dollar, yet laugh at the accumulation of silver and gold, the only real money in the world.

Lunch is always free…at least for awhile. Eventually someone has to pick up the tab. Nearly half of Americans are eating lunch for free yet we don’t understand the consequences of the bill coming due. We live off of credit in our personal lives, so government borrowing is no big deal.

Drones are now flying over America. They tell us that the drones will never be used against American citizens. The government is purchasing so many rounds of ammo that the shelves in our local gun shops are empty. If guns are so bad, why does the government have so many? Tanks? The DHS is purchasing freakin tanks!! Thousands of them…wonder why?

The wrath of God is being revealed.

Dorothy’s emerald shoes have rusted. Instead of “there’s no place like home” we find ourselves chanting ‘there’s no place at home.” What do you do when home sweet home is no longer so sweet?

Those of you who read my writings regularly know that I am a glass-half-full kinda guy. I trust in the faithfulness of the Lord and His promise to never leave us or forsake us.

But we have forsaken Him. We have forgotten God. Singing “God Bless America” will not make it so. He has blessed us…more than any nation in history…but we have spent the inheritance.

We have done it to ourselves. We are complicit in the suicide of a super-power.

So, what do we do now?

Calamity is certainly in our future. How it will play out I really don’t know. But are you going to prepare to make it to the other side?

The other side of what, you may ask. The other side of whatever is coming. Is it possible the calamity comes before Jesus returns? What will it look like? Are you prepared?

I have come to the conclusion that we cannot stop whatever is coming. Only the chastening of the Lord will return us to our senses. Because he loves us, he must discipline us. God’s love will hurt.

But there will be an “other side” of this whole mess. We will not be the first nation to have gone through such chastening. It will be time to rebuild. I pray I, and you, are up to the challenge.

Prepare now. Prepare your hearts. Read while you still can…especially the Word. Find and connect with like-minded believers. Hundreds may be depending on your person preparedness.

When the dust settles…if it ever does…folks will be looking for those that they can trust. Those with a plan…those with an answer…those who can lead with righteous judgment…those people will be more important than bullets, beans, or money.

Something horrible is coming. You can feel it…we know something is amiss…the wrath of God is soon to be revealed. We traded our children’s future for a pot of stew…

We will be without excuse…

Warning America of Coming Destruction and Judgment

The parallels of the fate of Ancient Israel suffered are crying out to America.  Judgment is soon at our door.

Jonathan Cahn, author of ‘The Harbinger’ and pastor/rabbi of Beth Israel Messianic Congregation of Wayne, NJ, gives the key note address at the Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast in Washington, DC. 01/21/13.  As a Watchman on the Wall, he is warning America from the pages of scripture of our national sins that will soon condemn us to judgment.

Our first clear warning for our nation to repent was the removal of God’s Hedge of Protection, and America’s repentance was short lived.  Two years after 9-11, America and her courts were removing God’s Commandments from courthouses and public spaces.  Since then, God and Jesus Christ are ridiculed, scorned, mocked and His followers called ‘intolerant’, ‘bigots’ and worse by a growing segment of this nation’s civil and cultural leadership.

The warning given here in this message is one many servants of God have been proclaiming of late. But even His Churches have become lukewarm and salt-less, ignoring the warnings and messages.  Instead they find solace in a gospel of wealth and prosperity they have constructed for themselves, recreating Jesus into an image that fits the decadence and self-absorbed culture

Youtube has been busy removing this video as offensive almost as soon as it is uploaded.  The warning of truth is considered offensive to this generation and efforts to marginalize and silence those whom God has anointed for that work would suffer the same fate as Ancient Israel’s prophets of God should this people be empowered to do so.

This message is powerful. Bold.  Illustrating biblical prophesy and the parallels our nation is facing.

Pastor Cahn shared these words of Abraham Lincoln, “And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God … and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.” My eyes filled with tears. How I long for a leader of our country to speak such words now.

Unfortunately, as with much of American Churchianity – this event was attended only by like minded brethren and has already been afforded its contempt in mass media coverage while the masses gathered to praise Obama as sovereign and lift their prayers to … apparently the spirits of our ancestors.

Jesus said, “He who has ears, let him hear!”

Isaiah 6:9-10
And He said, “Go, and tell this people:
‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’
“Make the heart of this people dull,
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
Lest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”

UPDATE: Youtube has scrubbed all uploads of this keynote address and keeps doing so within minutes of someone uploading a new version.  In all cases it says the video was ‘removed by the user’.  The reason given for this on some Christian forums is supposed ‘legal threats have been made’ because the Presidential Seal is present and Cahn has not been given permission to share, publish, broadcast or otherwise exhibit his keynote address.

Thankfully this video is currently being hosted at Vimeo – but given how quickly this is being taken down by ‘those who uploaded it’ – makes for interesting speculation.

The parallel of Ancient Israel’s destruction and America is cited in Isaiah 9:10-21.  Replace Jacob with ‘The West” and Ephraim and Manasseh with America or your town – and the warning is consistent with how God warns a nation of HIS people who called themselves by HIS Name – to repent or face destruction.

The Lord sent a word against Jacob,

And it has fallen on Israel.

All the people will know—

Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria—

Who say in pride and arrogance of heart:

“The bricks have fallen down,

But we will rebuild with hewn stones;

The sycamores are cut down,

But we will replace them with cedars.”

Therefore the Lord shall set up

The adversaries of Rezin against him,

And spur his enemies on,

The Syrians before and the Philistines behind;

And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth.

For all this His anger is not turned away,

But His hand is stretched out still.

For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them,

Nor do they seek the Lord of hosts.

Therefore the Lord will cut off head and tail from Israel,

Palm branch and bulrush in one day.

The elder and honorable, he is the head;

The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

For the leaders of this people cause them to err,

And those who are led by them are destroyed.

Therefore the Lord will have no joy in their young men,

Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows;

For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer,

And every mouth speaks folly.

For all this His anger is not turned away,

But His hand is stretched out still.

For wickedness burns as the fire;

It shall devour the briers and thorns,

And kindle in the thickets of the forest;

They shall mount up like rising smoke.

Through the wrath of the Lord of hosts

The land is burned up,

And the people shall be as fuel for the fire;

No man shall spare his brother.

And he shall snatch on the right hand

And be hungry;

He shall devour on the left hand

And not be satisfied;

Every man shall eat the flesh of his own arm.

Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh;

Together they shall be against Judah.

For all this His anger is not turned away,

But His hand is stretched out still.

America is not heeding the warning, neither are most churches willing to hear or preach this message.

In fact, during this impassioned message as you watch, especially near the end, watch men in ties and suits and women walking around the stage behind and in front TALKING while Pastor Cahn is still passionately preaching. The amount of DISRESPECT for one giving such a message is even self evident among those attending a prayer breakfast. They were not listening – they were busy talking to one another – a HUGE amount of disrespect to the Word of God being expounded upon by those people I am sure think highly of themselves because they attended.

In a way, that is a microcosm of the church itself in America. Some applaud the message of warning and repentance, and most of those are in the seats in the back and out amongst the gathered. Meanwhile, the leaders, the pastors and organizers – are busy squawking among themselves, disdaining the message, and nary even paying attention to the dire warning and call that IS THEIR CHARGE TO GIVE TO THEIR FLOCKS.

But they are not heeding, nor even listening. They are mostly about their own agendas, ministries and efforts – few of which are even related to Matthew 28:19-20, or equipping the Saints to actually go out and do that Commission.

Lord help those of us with ears to hear, and through HIS Spirit – MOVE in action to DO what needs to be done among a wayward people in an age of evil.
