Let me rather say that God led him, as he stumbled, into that mission.
I am amused by theologians who state so stoutly that psychologists are the spawn of Satan (or something close to it). Psychology is the empirical study of the human mind. Psychology by definition leaves open the question of what may be guiding that mind. Actual psychologists (most of them today in fact) can embrace sub-Christian or even baldly materialistic world views. And they run into various absurdities as they do so. But the few that embrace orthodox theological worldviews are viewing the science (as much as it can be a science) as a servant, not as a master. Ultimately it does end up getting echoed in the bible. However that doesn’t mean every biblical pastor is skilled in applying the word of God (and thus bringing the spirit of God) to such areas. Some of them seem pretty stuck up in their little constricted theological worlds, and I could name names but don’t.
OTOH, there is so much materialism and quackery (Freud) in psychology that it's good to be very skeptical of the claims of this science.
Unfortunately, too many people enter the field without a solid grounding in philosophy and theology, both of which put the field in its proper perspective.
They may not even CARE about the philosophy and theology.
Freud cooked up an allegory (with satanic elements in it) and used that as the basis of his theory. Those who were “cured” were, I fear, plopped right into the arms of whatever cohort of demons that represents. It wasn’t a reconciliation with truth, but with a lie. That’s not to say that successful psychoanalysis couldn’t be done with a fundamentally biblical bent (God is very flexible in blessing as long as He operates within a framework of truth), but it also wouldn’t be “Freudian” then.
I wonder if it’s just one more way for the alpha hotels to pour even more gas on the fire they started. They want it to become an inferno of civil unrest and societal upheaval.
I’m not really believing all the crap our gov’t is pulling was what the average LIV had in mind when they voted for hope and change.
Is THIS it? Excellent analysis of dear leader...
?
I sense no arrogance whatsoever on Cooke’s part. It is a well-written and honest article.
As usual, Obama let other incompetents make a mess of things and stayed above it all so he can now pass blame. Or attempt to.
To suggest that Obama himself sabotaged Obamacare is to suggest that Barry0 got off his skinny behind. That man is not known for involving himself in anything requiring effort, so I doubt your hypothesis.
The software they are trying to fix is not fixable. Fix one part and another link will crash. Each link has to be integrated with all the rest of the links and departments' systems. You cannot get there from here.
Republicans should sit silently and let the Democrats try to fix what will come to be known as the largest government disaster (my prediction) in history. Recommendation to Republicans: do not touch it. It is like gooey tar and the stink will stick to you forever.
Democrats did it. Democrats own it. Democrats have to fix it.
He still has a 100% perfect record for “not knowing/not bearing responsibility”. That we allow this freak, and the freaks he has installed to lord over us, to keep residing in the WH is a sign that we are doomed as a nation.
Evil is always 'with us' because evil is 'within us'.
God isn't evil, Jesus wasn't evil, the animals aren't evil, the rocks aren't evil.
That only leaves one place for 'evil' to exist.
God gave us 'free will', to choose between DOING GOOD or DOING EVIL. Unfortunately, we make a lot of bad choices.
Obamacare needed sabotaging to fail like the Titanic needed someone drilling a small hole in the hull of the ship after it hit the iceberg.
Yes it is. The problem is the ACA is not fixable.
Libs want credit for _intending_ good and _doing_ evil.
When you’re the president you don’t have to do it personally you have people do things for you.
Hell of a concept.
You might want to give it some thought before making ridiculous statements.
The entire thing was designed to be a failure right from the start. It was never intended to work.
Obama is in charge. He’s responsible for the sabotage.
The fact the dems had their talking points in place to blame the republicans for the screw up should tell anyone above the level of idiot it was designed to be a failure.
If Charles C.W. Cooke doesn’t recognize that then he’s a complete idiot.
He recognizes it. However, as the re-election of obama demonstrated, idiots today comprise a majority of the population of the voters in the United States of America. It is these, along with a complicit media and cowardly “opposition” that will keep obama and future obmamas in power.
YES!!!
Thanks FGS!
