GOD DID IT, PART II
Dynamist.com ^

Posted on 09/16/2001 4:58:12 PM PDT by VinnyTex

GOD DID IT, PART II: Reader Randall Parker calls my attention to this Worldnet Daily article by Anthony C. LoBaido, which makes Jerry Falwell's offensive theodicy look sophisticated and kind. A small sample:

Is New York the head of the "Great Satan"? All that is evil in the world can be found in New York: MTV, the United Nations, the U.N. abortion programs, the Council on Foreign Relations, New Age Church of St. John the Divine, Wall Street greed, Madison Avenue manipulation and of course more confirmed AIDS cases than the rest of America combined. Let's remember the filthy sodomite gay parade last summer in New York. Let's remember all the New York politicians falling all over themselves to praise this sick spectacle.

And let's not forget that New Yorkers elected—by a landslide—the openly Marxist, treasonous and abortion-mongering, occultic Hillary to a Senate seat. All while fully knowing what she was all about.

So are we all innocent here in New York? Are we innocent with our porno, drugs, filthy Jay Leno monologues, our idolatry, materialism and consumerism? Innocent when Republican Governor George Pataki stands next to the blood-stained dictator of Communist China as he rings the opening bell for the stock market on Wall Street?...

Can the remnant in America help but honestly ask themselves: Is this the fulfillment of Revelation chapters 17 and 18 (Mystery Babylon) or has God raised up Shiite Islam as a sword against America?

These guys should apologize to their fellow Americans, but first they should apologize to God. Since WND chooses to end the piece with a plug for my friend Hugh Hewitt's book, implicating Hugh in the article's sentiment, I've asked Hugh for a response. I hope he will cancel his Worldnet Daily column. Free speech is essential as government policy, but there are some people, as Ramesh Ponnuru puts it in this excellent column, whom civilized people should not let into our houses. Not only LoBaido but the editors who published him should be shunned. [Posted 9/15.]

Funny how Mao Tse Tung (atheistic butcher of millions) lived a life of plenty and died at a ripe comfortable old age.

And the chaplain of the New York City fire department was crushed unrecognizable by tons of concrete falling from the sky.

Why don't these "God's judgement" people have an answer for that?

Free will is the issue here..and what man is choosing...

Now God is no puppet that you can have dance to your tune...He will issue judgement when He is ready..even if you are not..

Didn't God destroy Sodom and Gomorrah? Kill everyone except a handful of his Chosen who built the ark?

So the workers at the World Trade Center can be compared to Sodom and Gomorrah?

Do you even read the New Testament? Do you know that Jesus condemned the Pharisees for holding that the son was suffering because of the sins of the father?

How do you pray to a God who destroys innocent people because OTHER people have sinned?

You have such an immature and perverted understanding of God.

How do you pray to such a devious God?

Have you scripture that shows that Satan can act without Gods permission?

So God uses Satan to tempt and torment human beings?

What kind of God is it that you worship?

Are you one of those people that would let their child die from an ear infection because God will fix the problem if that is his will?

They do, but you lack the good sense to understand it. It is pointless to waste the explanation on you.

Would God allow Satan to exersize his power? After all isn't Satan the enemy of God? Do you knowingly let your enemy strike you? silliness..

Please take your bible off the shelf and read it...Satan can not act on man without God's permission..he stands at the throne of God..he is the accuser of the breathern..

God is Sovereign and is in control..read your bible

These people do NOT know the God I love.

They seem not to realize that Jesus condemned their perverted view.

They hold it so they can feel smug and self-righteous. THEY weren't killed, so THEY are the good guys!

Sick.

I think they will say the chaplain died for all of our sins, but didn't somebody already do that?

I have been saddened by much of what I have read here these last few days.

But also heartened by those who have rallied to condemn this mental sickness.

Regards.

A sick and demented person might think so.

Kevin. You buy this "God's judgement" nonsense?

Yes, of course.

That must be it.

Isn't this the part where you call him a swine?

The best seller no one reads (well almost no one):

Lu 17:25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.
26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

You have a much greater understanding of the true God than these vengeance-filled zealots.

None of them have acknowledged that Jesus Himself condemned the position they now hold.
