Deutchland Uber Allies as the on hold music?

That’s not a mistake, that’s a message. That song is so tightly bound to the NAZIs that it is never played anymore.

Imagine if Robert Byrd (former Klan member) used “Dixie” as the on hold music for a phone meeting of african americans? Everyone would know it wasn’t an accident.

Either Obama arranged it to send a message, or a miracle occured and God is trying to send a warning to these rabbis.

Accident? No.

By the way,

Is there really such a prayer saying “partners?”

I am seeing things about God and a Book of Life, but not “partners” as in decision making.

Indeed. Evaluating him is like watching the Soviets fighting the Nazis and trying to decide who to root for.

Surreal.

My bet would be it was some little punk a$$ 20-something staffer who thought it was a real hoot. You know, the type of professionals that Obama surrounds himself with at the White House./s

I thought maybe this was a satire article when I saw that. Deutchland Uber Allies? Must be satire.

But no, apparently it is real.

God help us.

We’re not partners

He's riding a fine line, and IMO, it's better not to take the bait. He is trying to appeal to the large nr of Jewish seniors in blue states.

In Jewish tradition, no Jew is to live in a city w/o a physician, because physicians are God's partners in restoring life, God's gift, to the sick.

Oh-blah-blah wants us to start hollering to get the Jewish seniors back on board.

We can assent to God’s will or we can dissent. We aren’t “partners”. Our Lord doesn’t need our input as to what is right or wrong. He doesn’t take advice from us. We don’t get a vote on His Law.

This world has been made hideous by the works of men who thought of themselves God’s “partners” (or surrogates).

I think it is a general tactic, it was deployed against Hillary Clinton in the primary.

BTW, my link at 19 is a Jewish paper and it does not say that the “partners” part is part of a prayer.

It’s so funny, because when you read the prophets, they refer to themselves as ‘The Slaves of Christ’. For all the esteem we hold Paul, Elijah, Ezekiel, and Jeremiah in, they had a very tough life.

The rest of us get to choose, by contrast, on whether to do God’s will or not.

The concept of partnership with God is such a foreign one from the standpoint of Christian Apologetics.
