Bookmarked!
Is the Army really having services to mark the National Day of Prayer in the first place? I heard a judge ruled the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional.
Yeah. We leftists are highly supportive of Islamic terrorists who murder American soldiers on US army bases!!
or this country!
I have major problems with Obombas comments about CHRISTIANITY....can we DROP HIM????
I have problems with his whole administration and Congress - let’s drop them all in NOVEMBER and beyond. I am sick of the PC progressives trying to ruin America. I’m thinking,Jehovah God is not happy with America at present.
I heard a judge ruled the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional.
If I recall correctly, he did, but did withheld a ban on up-coming events.

man...how far we have tumbled
attending church as a lad in the 60s and gazing out the sunday school class window in spring wishing i were fishing or roaming the woods off in the distance or looking at other churches across town realizing my buddies were temporarily entrapped there as well....and thinking I had forever to live..lol
i never figured my nation would collapse so fast and so disgustingly...the future looked so bright for all of us then...people were happier and more optimistic
things now look dirty and ironic and jaded....and past tense
am I the only one?
poor kids here never knew another reality...America and our culture once stood for something optimistic.......it was not a myth
now we live under a tyranny of all the fringes of the culture
"The one thing that history teaches us is that history teaches us nothing..."
This seems like a re-run of the first century. Christians were persecuted by the Romans not because they professed belief in Christ as God the Son, and Saviour. The Romans were OK with many gods and Religions.
What they hated about the Christians was that they said that Belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour was the only way to Salvation.
The Christians said that all the other gods were false.
The Romans were fine with "...diversity and appreciation of all faiths." It was the 'obnoxious' position of the Christians that the God of the Bible was the only God, and that Christ was the only way, that the Romans hated...
And so the Pentagon takes the position of First Century pagan Rome...
When the next one goes crazy like the nut at Fort Hood, the people who made this decision should be tried for murder as well. Placate, placate, what ever happened to common sense ! We continue to mock God and everything this country once stood for. I believe there is a real eye-opener down the road for us.

It sounds as though this jackass has drunk one Tom Collins too many....
"It's (Muslim world) a part of the world I love very much," Graham said, according to CNN. "And I understand it. But I certainly disagree with their teaching."

DEMOCRACY THROUGH CHRISTIANITY
MacArthur pondered Showa conversion
By MIKIO HARUNA
Kyodo News
Gen. Douglas MacArthur, supreme commander during the Allied Occupation of Japan, once considered attempting to convert Emperor Showa to Christianity, a diary of the U.S. secretary of the Navy shows.
In his diary, James Forrestal wrote that during his meeting with MacArthur in Tokyo on July 10, 1946, the general said he had “given some consideration” to persuading the Emperor to convert but thought it would need a “good deal of reflection and consideration before it could be carried out.”
Kyodo News obtained a copy of the diary, which was found at the library of Princeton University, Forrestal’s alma mater in New Jersey. The author later became the first U.S. secretary of defense, a post created in 1947.
MacArthur’s idea of spreading Christianity in Japan by having the Emperor change his religion probably stemmed from the general’s belief that democracy arises from Christian principles, according to Ray Moore, a professor of Japanese history at Amherst College, in Massachusetts, who described MacArthur as a “19th century man. http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20000504b7.html
A devout Episcopalian, MacArthur said to a visiting group of evangelicals that “Japan is a spiritual vacuum. If you do not fill it with Christianity, it will be filled with Communism. Send me 1,000 missionaries.” He asked U.S. missionary societies to send “Bibles, Bibles and more Bibles.
There are good Muslims in the military.
But they would be considered apostates by most Muslims.
Remember, it is only the 70% which make the remaining 30% look bad.
Hey, Col.Tom Collins: Major Hassan thanks you for the all-inclusive and diverse policies you so vigorously defend.

How did America become so blind?
Never mind ... I really DO know.
Jesus is no longer welcome except in the lives of the remnant ... it's just a matter of time when He who lets will no longer be here.
This is a disgrace. Rev. Graham is one of the most highly respected Christian preachers in the country. His father is a living legend, and he has a son serving in Afghanistan. The Army should be ashamed (though I have no doubt this came direct from their CIC)
