Christians With Their Heads In The Sand
The Chattanoogan ^ | Friday, July 31, 2015 | Bill Reesor

Posted on 08/04/2015 4:44:41 PM PDT by jacknhoo

Christians With Their Heads In The Sand Friday, July 31, 2015 I recall how history tells us of the German people living next to the gas chambers, ignoring the smell and horror of over six million Jews being slaughtered, and then acting as though they didn't know it had happened. I can also recall that Eisenhower was so disgusted with these callused and unconcerned people that he made them face their denial by marching them all past the dead and decaying piles of corpses of the slaughtered Jews within these electrified wire compounds.

Get where I am going with this? Tell me how some Christians can say that they will be able to look our Savior in the eyes and justify being supporters of a political party in our country that had a knock down drag out fight to keep abortion, the killing and shreading of these unborn babies, in their party platform during their convention. They wouldn't even condemn "late term abortion".

I could site other Biblical standards that the Democrat party violates as well. Positions that are completely contrary to those who claim to believe in our Lord and his admonition to "suffer the little children to come unto me".

Remember, Christian means "Christ like", so I ask you, after the revelations of this week that exposed Planned Parenthood and their barbaric killing and cutting up of innocent life from the womb and then selling those parts like so much meat at the local butcher shop, do you think God is proud of you hypocrites? Are you really living "Christ like"? Why you're no better than the Germans living near the gas chambers.

Oh, I won't let the Republicans off the hook either, they sit back and run for re-election each cycle and utter not a peep against this evil for fear of loosing a few votes. They gave up that fight a long time ago. They trade fighting for life for personal prestige and profit. All of these politicians make me sick, but some Christians who claim to to possess a deep moral conviction to follow the admonitions of our Lord are the worst, because some of you voted to put the likes of Harry Reed, Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, and yes Obama in power as they continue to foster these practices. Then you go to church on Sunday morning singing "Amazing Grace" from your pews.

If God hasn't taken his hand of protection off our country already, then He surely will soon. And you know what, we will only have ourselves to blame. We will answer for our actions or inaction someday in heaven. If I had my way, I would, like Eisenhower, make you all march past the petri dishes at Planned Parenthood and view the dissected body parts of these innocent children, and then tell me you are "Christ Like". I dare you to go by the "Choices Pregnancy Center" just behind Sams off Lee Highway and read the letters at the memorial wall left by anguished young mothers to their aborted babies like I have, or see the toys and teddy bears that they left as well. If that doesn't break your heart, then we've become more like the Germans of WWII than I thought, and there is no hope for us as "One Nation Under God".

Sad fact remains the Jews were herded into the chambers

The 50 million abortions were carried out on women who willingly went to the facilities and PAID to have them performed

also the islamonazis are slaughtering, torturing, actually crucifying Christians in the mid east and some parts of Africa....

(some financed and armed by Obama)

and so many pastors, priests, ministers say nothing

this does not change the subject, this adds to the evidence for the posted article’s premise... that so many so-called Christian clergy apparently don’t give a damn about human lives being slaughtered en masse

In the Middle East, there are literally Christians with their heads in the sand. Our country isn’t doing anything about that either.

Thank you for referencing that article jacknhoo. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Don’t overlook that even if all federal lawmakers supported providing funds for Planned Parenthood, it remains that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to tax and spend for anything like Planned Parenthood.

“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

The reason that federal funding exists for Planned Parenthood in the first place is the following imo. The corrupt, post-17th Amedment ratification Senate is not doing its job to protect the states as the Founding States had intended for the Senate to do, in this case by refusing to kill vote-winning but unconstitutional House appropriations bills that provide funding for Planned Parenthood.

The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and Constitution-ignoring, pro-abortion senators along with it.

So your point is that the nameless souls who died as a result of the women’s “choices” were also herded into the clinics to die?

Here’s the deal: Talk all you want about standing up to evil but I tell you that people need a leader and a clear course of moral action. Without these two things, the vast majority of people concede their autonomy and responsibility to whoever seems to wield the power and control. If that is the evil, then they cede to evil. So far, no clear leader exists and no moral agenda has been elucidated.

What I am pointing out is that 50,000 women were not forced or coerced to have abortions and even paid to have them
That is the real tragedy

Maybe the civilians didn't know. After all, the author seems to think the Holocaust only happened to half of the actual number of victims.

Trying to understand your point ( and getting nowhere)

Because the writer didn’t say 11million ( to include the non Jewish souls who were herded into the chambers )

....that must mean the townspeople didn’t smell the stench from the crematoriums?

Just what do you mean

The author condemns people who allegedly didn’t know about the Holocaust, yet in the article he only mentions half the victims.

Some here will.Probably most.

It’s also incredibly frustrating to encounter self-declared Christians, who will not vote.They won’t even register.
They have an individual right to not vote.

What they don’t have, is any right to claim moral outrage about the steep descent into corrupt depravity of this nation, and the world.

It is impossible to persuade them that they are shirking their duties, both to God and mankind, when they so actively decide to passively submit to evil in the public square...
