"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
The democrat party has quickly become the antithesis of Judeo-Christian values.
I am not quite sure how it's possible to practice these values while voting democrat.
He hit the nail right straight on the head.
Democrats sound so phony when they talk about anything related to religion.
For example, Howard Dean said that it’s not true that Democrats don’t have values. He said that Democrats have a lot in common with evangelicals. And he said that Democrat values are that they don’t think children should go to bed hungry at night.
Hillary Clinton has said that she’s always been a praying person. When asked the last time she went to church, she hemmed and hawed and said that doesn’t matter. Do you know of any person of faith who describes themselves as a “praying person” as Hillary did? She made that term up thinking it would fool somebody, apparently.
And they say “blessed are the peacemakers” and talk about how Jesus preached that we should help the poor . Which the big gov’t Democrats interpret to mean that we must create and expand social programs to “help the poor”.
But many people of faith volunteer and work through charities, and don’t expect or want the gov’t to be doing the work of “helping the poor”.
It is why they try to shift the argument to advancing socialism. But there is no “charity” in forced taxation to pay the dole out to the underclass.
And “universal healthcare” covers those who have money (they choose to spend on other things) as well as those without money.
They also have to attack the religious texts to suggest that same sex marriage IS morally acceptable.
They start with the agenda items and THEN seek to find justification for them instead of modelling policy on biblical teachings.
Ultimately if we “are” to fund our brothers’ health care because the bible instructs us to do so, then by the separation of Church and State, it CANNOT be government policy to do so. Not everyone follows that religion.
I do suppose that during the Primaries Hillary was PRAYING like never before ("Let me win! Oh PLEASE let me win...")
It is time for the Atheistic/Socialist party(Democrats) to come on out of the closet and admit they hate Bible believing Christians. But of Satan's many pawns(useful idiots) most don't believe he exists, and the others are deceivers like their master who is deceiving them. Hollywood is full of folks who don't realize they're the devil's tools.
There is a hot spot in hell reserved for some of the fake "Reverends" we've got mugging for the cameras at every political event.
When you mix religion and an election(popularity contest), you get a nasty brew of watered down hypocrisy that flows from the mouths of compromising souls in the form of sugary sound-bites.
Yes, Cal hits a huge homerun with this column.
Try to think of it as a "Political abortion".
There, that's better.
I really hope that people are “smartening” up when they try to connect the “ardent” catholic pelosi with any kind of faith in Christ.
There. I completed that for her.
......”It is why they try to shift the argument to advancing socialism. But there is no “charity” in forced taxation to pay the dole out to the underclass......”
I have felt for many years that the Democrats’ biggest sin is the denigration of true charity by seeking to impose big government programs to “help the poor”. Nothing kills true charity faster than the government confiscating all the wealth in order to redistribute it according to their wishes. This sort of philosophy kills the human spirit.
Los”ing”?
A. Only half the congregation is 'kneeling'.
Cheers!
Cal don’t always hit ‘em outa the park for every Christian. He complains that Pelosi’s when-life-begins weasel-wording “makes Catholic teaching a matter of personal preference, not objective truth.” But isn’t much of Catholic teaching, like the priest’s mandatory celibacy, a matter of ordained pronouncement and tradition or purported divine revelation?
On CNN, Michelle Obama was talking about how she would talk to her husband about people in debt. Yet her solution was to work out government policies, NOT increase their own contributions to charity.
But there is no “charity” in forced taxation to pay the dole out to the underclass.
Socialists think that charity begins and ends at the voting booth.Vote for me, and you won't have to give at the office. In fact you can criticize Republicans who tithe as being cheap.
