Yeah, /sarc.
Two candidates with two false views of god. The one who’s buddies fly planes into buildings and believe their god isn’t coming back until they kill everyone who doesn’t believe what they do, isn’t ever going to get my vote.
It is a lesson as to why a person’s worldview matters, though.
Well said.
I heartily agree on your worldview comment.
I also highlighted 11 FREEPER threads from '08 to '12 focusing on Obama's links to Islam (I put that on a Spring thread)
Two candidates with two false views of god.
It's more than just false views of God. It's false gods who wind up controlling these POTUS candidates.
Remember, 'twas these very SAME false gods who controlled Japan, Italy, and Germany during the 1930s and at least the first half of the 1940s.
In that sense, we as Americans can no longer look down upon the Japanese, the Italians, or the Germans who acquiesced or actively sanctioned placing emperor-gods (Japan), fascists (Italians), or madmen-fascist dictators (Germany) into place.
Americans are about to openly sanction placing these false gods at the helm of the power of the so-called "free" world...
These candidates are no "Hitlers" by ANY stretch of the imagination, but the Japanese had emperor-gods well before they launched their wars of the 1930s (vs. China) or 1940s (U.S., etc.) [These emperors were indeed openly acknowledged as "Divine"]
And now we have a man who falls into the camp of his father's cousin -- Lds "First President" Marion Romney -- who taught: "The truth is … man is a child of God— a God in embryo." -- Marion G. Romney, in Conference Report, April 1973, p. 136; or Ensign, July 1973, p. 14.
Romney believes HE is just as divine as the Japanese emperor did once upon a time.
And here many Christian voters know all this...and yet are willing to openly endorse these false gods at the helm of our nation.
As 2013 unfolds, everybody duck!!!! (I've heard God isn't too keen on His people endorsing rivals as competing gods to Him...something about "idolatry" and all that)
