OBAMA: WE NEED TO HELP PEOPLE OVERCOME THEIR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS
Truth and Action ^ | June 28, 2015 | Staff

Speaking in the Rose Garden shortly after the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage was announced, Obama stated that the progressives in society needs to ‘help’ those with deeply held religious beliefs overcome their convictions.

“Opposition in some cases has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs,” Obama said. “All of us who welcome today’s news should be mindful of that fact. Recognize different viewpoints. Revere our deep commitment to religious freedom.”

“Sometimes there are days like this when that slow and steady effort is rewarded with justice that arrives like a thunderbolt,” Obama said. Although the progress might have seemed slow to gay rights advocates, he added, the nation’s shift on same-sex marriage has been “so quick.”

“But today should also give us hope that on the many issues with which we grapple often painfully real change is possible,” the President continued.

Well, he's really unto something there. In the same vein in which religious organizations (and condemned for it) have tried therapies speaking to gay people and offering programs that make them see that being gay is merely a lifestyle option, Obama now suggests that the problem we've had regarding abortion, same sex marriage, is really a matter of people resisting these everyday normal things because religious people see abortion, same sex marriage as that of being in opposition to those who have moral principles, deeply held religious beliefs. Now, if we can speak to these people and get them to understand that their way of life, their religious beliefs is the problem , we wouldn't have these diverse opinions on these issues. Seems simple enough to me. Just get rid of God.

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind but now I see.

Shout, shout for glory,
Shout, shout aloud for glory;
Brother, sister, mourner,
All shout glory hallelujah..............................

Maybe Obama can help ISIS overcome their “conviction” of torturing and murdering others?

Is he going to have absorption chambers like Landru did in the Star Trek TOS episode “Return of the Archons”? You are not of the body.

I wonder what sort of “help” I’ll need to overcome the silly notion that maybe God knows what He’s doing a little better than a brainless, bat-eared socialist community-organizing activist goose-stepping zombie does? Not to put too fine a point on it...

“Shifts in hearts and minds is possible,” he said. “And those who have come so far on their journey to equality have a responsibility to reach back and help others join them. Because for all our differences, we are one people — stronger together than we could ever be alone.”

That sounds like there will be mandatory reeducation and sensitivity training provided by the anointed Left.
