Do not use potty language - or references to potty language - on the Religion Forum.

Excellent, excellent points. I would go so far to say that even Hitler did not know the evil he was capable of before he gained so much power. Such is the slippery slope of exchanging freedoms for perceived security. It is a cliche, but this is why people shout warnings of "Hitler!" and "Fascist!" while they still can.

Sadly, I think these points are lost on the dear deacon who runs the blog, along with so many others in the clergy that do not understand that the Christian principle of self-determination is the cornerstone of Western society.

Thank you for pointing this out. I almost posted a P.S. to that effect. I agree that Hitler didn’t have a clue what he had/would become. He simply put the programs and structures in place before he became quite insane from STDs and mescaline abuse. At that point, there was no way to stop him and the rest, as they say, is history.

The cautionary tale here is don’t put programs and policies into place that are begging to be abused by those with no integrity or who may be downright certifiably mad. It’s too late to stand up and fight then.

The article doesn’t discuss what Nazi’s were. It discusses what they eventually became. Those who compare Obama to Nazi’s are comparing him to Nazism in the earlier days with a belief that it could very well grow into what Nazism grew into.

Before the election I would compare Obama to Hitler in a few ways. As I have watched his Presidency MO, he has actually become more like Mussolini.

"...he has actually become more like Mussolini."

Certainly in the looks department.

I still think Axlerod is Hitler.

To join with some of the other posters:
The author ignores the many links between Hitler's brand of socialism and Obama's brand of socialism. The lesson should be that such zealots are capable of consequences that most would have believed when they voted for 'change'.

There is no evil that exists in the world, proportionate to the evil of abortion.

There is truly a culture of death amongst the socialists...the atheistic. Persons should not be surprised that when mankind teaches, promotes, supports, encourages and funds the slaughter of innocent defenseless little boys and girls throughout the whole world...that life becomes something trivial in significance and magnitude and dignity to the generations of persons being subjected.

Those whom refer to themselves as progressive can hardly truly claim that their ideals progress mankind to a more peaceful plateau - their violence and bigotry undergird their every action. They are ignorant of the truth, because these persons refuse to admit that mankind is as evil today as at any other time throughout our history. Nothing has changed - we are on the same path and have increased in momentum...the longer time goes on the more certain our outcome is and the more difficult it is to change that outcome.

To dismiss the actions of atheistic socialism as being unique to the Nazis is delusion. Wouldn't it be wonderful if only those humans at that particular point in time had that same violence and bigotry...that same ideology and philosophy? The elderly, disabled, incompetent, poor, etc, are all a "drain" on society and are all costly to respect and to provide care for. The good thing to do is to honor, respect and protect them and their wisdom. The so-called progressive thing to do is to eliminate them...their effect from society altogether and forever..to discount them and to trivialize their contribution to man and to life. Progressives have such little Faith.

To dismiss drawn parallels and similarities of atheistic socialist ideals and philosophies and practices, as being unfounded simply because someone uses the most infamous scenario in the world, is disingenuous and pure denial of the truth. The person who wrote this article showed his ignorance in several places and it will do no good to point out the particular instances, suffice to say, he is a product of the "system."

We slaughter over 50,000,000 defenseless little boys and girls every year in the world...and somehow the progressives believe this is a good. We promote assisted suicide in some states here and practice euthanasia at our nursing homes and somehow progressives see this as a good. Throughout the world the progressives call for the destruction of life, be it for economic, evnironmental, social or political "reason," is is not a good but an evil. When progressives are more worried about whether Michael Vick had a hand in killing seven dogs so he can't participate in their religion (sports and entertainment) and less worried that a mother like Whoopi Goldberg proudly and publicly claims to have slaughtered seven of her own children...their evil intents are as clear today as they were in 1940.

I know, it doesn't begin with this administration, but this particular administration displays its atheistic socialism on its sleeve. Over time perhaps this could be good or could be at least weaved by God into a good as perhaps persons will finally have to separate themselves from what has been convenient for their own causes and move more away from the evils that are conveniently and passively not acknowledged.

The reason the national socialism failed then - it lied about the dignity of the human person - the reason it will always fail.

Well, I think history has shown that socialism/communism/marxism, the same disease just different development stages, has killed many more people than did the Nazi's.

So when we get down to it, seems like Nazi labelers are being a little gracious to Obama.

If we give Obama time and resources I'm sure he and his power hungry mob, including Dr. Zeke and John Holdren and Van Jones, will yet again prove socialism/communism/marxism is capable of mass brutality and barbarism even in America.
