The report notes, correctly: “The Obama administration no longer even speaks of freedom of religion; now it is only 'freedom of worship.' This radical departure is one that threatens to make true religious liberty vulnerable, conditional, and limited.”

Freedom of Religion devolving into Freedom of Worship can be likened to when Stars of David were painted on Jewish store fronts back in the not to distant past. It’s a first step in setting up a strawman.

But with my Hope and Change agenda I will make sure they are before I leave the White House.

The outcome of the November elections is still questionable at this time.

It just shows how few Christians in this country are concerned about their religious freedom that they would even consider voting for Obama.

“I don’t think, generally, Christians are being persecuted in this country.”

That means WE ARE.

Does anyone hear actually think that the Sheep will give a damn about faith, when they’re getting EBT and American Idol?

As long as they have bread and circuses, and as long as they get free sh!t, they’ll keep the Left in power.

Thank you for posting this.

Christianity was an illicit religion throughout the Roman Empire from 64 - 312 AD, punishable by death. During this time the message of the early church was so compelling that pagans and secularists chose to be Christians, even at the risk of their own and their family’s lives. By the time of the Edict of Milan, Christians were a dominant force in the Empire, and may have been in the majority. How else to explain their new-found status as a preferred religion under Constantine?

Somehow, we have allowed America to lose her Christian heritage. But all things are possible through Christ. And we have already proven that a pure and dedicated church can prevail against paganism and secularism.

Republicans have nominated men for the top of their ticket who hail from the two most persecuted religions in America.

Overall it is going to be about the economy. The economy still decides the elections.
