“One Democratic governor is citing adherence to Christian values as a reason to oppose the United States building a wall”
It is politicians like this that the establishment clause was meant to protect us from.
The religion of liberalism is happy to masquerade as “Christian” when convenient. Coincidentally, Satanists do the same.
There’s a back story to the denial of God at the Democratic convention this week.
The Democrats didn’t just deny God once in Charlotte.
They denied Him three times.
First, God was stricken from the platform. When that decision was reported in the national media and criticized by Republicans, Barack Obama himself stepped in and pushed for restoration of references to “God-given potential” and affirmation of Jerusalem’s status at the capital of Israel.
But the controversy didn’t end there.
The platform amendments had to be ratified by the delegates on the floor.
On the first vote, the “ayes” and nos” seemed equally loud. The convention chairman, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, tried a second vote. The results were the same. After a third try, Villaraigosa announce that that “ayes” had the necessary two-thirds vote to carry the amendments.
It was then that the decision was met with a wave of booing, with delegates shaking their heads that the threshold for approval had not been met.
What’s the significance of the three denials?
It’s reminiscent of the denials of Jesus by Simon Peter on the day He was arrested for a sham trial before the Sanhedrin. I didn’t hear a cock crow at the Democratic convention, unless you count Bill Clinton’s speech.
The good news for Democrats who were part of the anti-God convention in Charlotte is that there is still forgiveness available to them. Unlike Simon Peter in the Gospel stories, I am unaware of any Democrats weeping bitterly after they realized what they had done in the rejection of the Almighty.
But it’s not too late for Democrats to recognize what they have done – not only in rejecting God purposely in their platform and by specific omission, but also in adopting a platform that is anti-God from top to bottom.
It specifically calls for child sacrifice – called abortion, these days. But not only do they condone the practice, they do so for any reason, at any time and with the coerced support of tax dollars provided by Americans with a strong moral and religious objection to doing so.
It specially calls for redefining marriage from the biblical definition of a lifetime union between one man and one woman to one that includes the union of same-sex couples, something termed an “abomination” by God.
And, equally importantly, it calls for the expansion of government and its pre-eminence over the conscience of individuals. As the Obama administration argued in court yesterday, the government can make a requirement that violates religious beliefs and that a company cannot reflect the religious faith of its owners.
This is a revolutionary platform – in the worst sense of the word.
It is anti-God, anti-Bible and anti-American.

Moonbeam has a comment on Christianity? That’s rich.
AND .. California already has a BORDER WALL.
While it’s not the magnificent structure the President is planning to build, but it does stop a lot of traffic; even though the wall is climbable .. it is not for the faint of heart.
And .. what does being a Christian have to do with a wall ..?? I guess it’s okay if we get raped and murdered; only the liberals can decide it’s okay for illegals to enter the USA.
