Another known and puzzling link: Jim Wallis is Obama’s “spiritual adviser.” He is a card-carrying communist, self-declared. Puzzling because I was under the impression communists were not religious and hated religion. Do a Wikipedia search on him for more information.

Another thing to ponder: The TransPacific Treaty Obama is trying to tie up involves all communist nations including El Salvador, Nicaragua, etc. This must be voted down and not ratified. Spread the word.

'Puzzling because I was under the impression communists were not religious and hated religion.'

I'll clear things up for you. Communists *say* they are against religion, but really they are simply anti-God. Indeed, communism is itself a religion in which the state replaces God, and they are perfectly comfortable using religion as a tool or a means to an end (i.e. "liberation theology.") Communists are all about the disruption and overturning of traditional order, and will exploit novel or non-traditional religious or spiritual belief systems to upend social order and create upheaval they can exploit. The Soviets were perfectly happy to support radical islam in overturning western leaning powers (i.e. see, "Iran"), but in many ways it came back to bite them.

The Soviets were happy to see the rise in "new ageism," "paganism," etc. spread in the west because it undermined traditional the traditional Judeo-Christian foundations in our society.

Again, communists are not anti-religion. They are anti-God.
