Christmas is just a secular holiday to some people....no religious signifigance at all! Without a political motivation, they would have no reason to attend church or otherwise recognize the reason for the season.
Obama LOVES Rmadan but seems to ignore Easter and Christmas.-I.M. Kane of The Millstone Diaries writes of the attempt to eliminate Good Friday from our national conscience.
Did this act of intolerance and anti-Christian bigotry occur in San Francisco’s notorious Castro District? Fire Island? Key West?Boston?
None of the above.
This Stalinistic attempt at erasing history was perpetrated in Davenport, Iowa.
A taxpayer supported group ominously called the Davenport Civil Rights Commission has imposed its narrow-minded bigotry on the people of that middle-American city.
The apparartchik responsible is a petty bureaucrat named Craig Malin.
Just as no one in the managed “mainstream media” (MSM) asked the fundamental question “Why did the islamic jihadi known as the Underwear Bomber choose, of all days, Christmas day to attack the US?” No one seems to see the acceleration of hate-filled anti-Christian bigotry subsequent to Mr. Obama’s assinine assertion while visiting Turkey last year that Americans no longer consider their country a “a Christian nation … but a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.”
The Underwear Bomber chose to attack us on CHRISTMAS! Maybe he didn’t get the memo from Obama.
Sadly, the extremists in Davenport, Iowa did.
I.M. Kane reports that this anti-Christian zealot “...made the name change unilaterally, and then... sent a memo around to municipal employees informing them that Good Friday was now “Spring Holiday.”
“We merely made a recommendation that the name be changed to something other than Good Friday. Our Constitution calls for separation of church and state. Davenport touts itself as a diverse city and given all the different types of religious and ethnic backgrounds we represent, we suggested the change..,”
Of course, the Constitution calls for no such thing. The phrase “separation of church and state” is found nowhere in the U.S. Constitution. The concept is totally foreign to our foundational documents. Our Constitution and Declaration of Independence explicitly recognize and aknowledge our Creator God.
Making Obama’s de-Christianization dream come true seems to be the goal of the Davenport Human Rights Commission and Leftists everywhere. Why?
Because the state is a jealous god. The state can have no other gods, especially the True and Living God, before it. Doing so limits the powers of the state.
Dennis Prager makes the compelling point that
“...Leftism, though secular, must be understood as a religion (which is why I have begun capitalizing it). The Leftist value system’s hold on its adherents is as strong as the hold Christianity, Judaism and Islam have on their adherents. Nancy Pelosi’s belief in expanding the government’s role in American life, and therefore her passion for the health care bill, is as strong as a pro-life Christian’s belief in the sanctity of the life of the unborn.
Given the religious nature and the emotional power of Leftist values, Jews and Christians on the Left often derive their values from the Left more than from their religion.
Now, of course, most Leftist Jews and Christians will counter that Leftist values cannot trump their religion’s values because Leftist values are identical to their religion’s values. But this argument only reinforces my argument that Leftism has conquered the Christianity and the Judaism of Leftist Christians and Jews. If there is no difference between Leftist moral values and those of Judaism or Christianity, then Christianity is little more than Leftism with “Jesus” rhetoric added, and Judaism is Leftism with Jewish terms — such as “Tikkun Olam” (”repairing the world”) and “Prophetic values” — added.
But if Christianity is, morally speaking, really Leftism, why didn’t Catholics or Protestants assert these values prior to 19th-century European Leftism? And, if Judaism is essentially a set of Left-wing values, does that mean that the Torah and the Talmud are Leftist documents? Or are the two pillars of Judaism generally wrong? “
Fundamentally liberals, progressives and Leftists in general hate Jesus, hate the Bible and hate Christians with a passion. They do so because it presents rival truth claims. They have their religion. The state is the “god” for Leftists, and any who dare disagree are blaspheming their “god.”
This Christmas please pray for the conversion of Obama, Pelosi and all of your Leftist friends and neighbors. They are bowing down before the pagan idol known as the state. They seek to silence the Truth because He is the sole source of light and darkness hates the light. Pray for them. It’s their only hope
