TO BLACK CHRISTIANS--IS OBAMA OUR SAUL?

Wow! That was a good read. I was thinking about the attacks on Christianity, here and abroad, and came across the ACLU. They certainly are doing their best to take Christianity down, such as trying to ban Jesus' name in prayers in the military, or their apparent hatred of the ten commandments. But they have no problems embracing the Muslim religion. I have yet to figure that one out.

Eric,
They have no problem embracing Islam because they feel that if they can create a false moral equivalency between a "religion" that most Americans perceive as violent, repressive, and even evil, and Christianity, then (in using Islam in this manner) they can, thereby, discredit Christians, and thus, Christian values.

This is why they are embracing Islam. It's as simple as that! For the liberal "progressive" agenda (Socialism) to have a chance of succeeding in America, Christianity (following the teachings of God and the Holy Bible) must be discredited, people must not believe in a power higher than themselves so that they can be made to worship only other men and allow themselves to be governed (not by higher principles of personal relationship with God (Jesus), which is the origin of freedom (life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that only comes from acceptance of God's being in control-Faith)but by Government.

Christianity IS freedom from faith in the supreme governance of men. That's why it must be discredited. If people here can be made to think of it as repressive (equivalent to Islam which is nothing but repressive) then the Socialist agenda can succeed. A people who does not know or believe in the "realness" of Christ have no one to turn to except the mob of other flawed human beings.

Islam, global warming (getting people to actually believe that humans can control the temperature of the planet),pro-abortionism (promoting as "law", a woman's right to kill her unborn infant), homosexual "marriage" moral equivalence and acceptance of this as "natural" and just; all these are part-and-parcel of the rejection of Jesus Christ and the elevation of the myth of authority of man to provide "social justice."

Islam is not dangerous to a tyrannical or even socialist government. They go hand-in-hand! Christianity, however, gives freedom. That is why it must be destroyed in any Fascist or Socialist/ Communist governments like the one Obama and Co. are trying to force on America. While Islam purports to not support abortion and homosexuality, the way it is used in Sharia law driven societies is selective. What Islam does support, however, is fascism; control of other people’s lives by self-appointed leaders. So it has much in common with the “progressive” agenda that Obama and his cabal is trying to institute in this country; control of every aspect of production, wealth, and personal choice. We are simply too free to be of any use to the overall “progressive” agenda, and Christianity guarantees our knowing we are free from the authority of men who would rule over our lives and consciences.

Christianity (and Judaism) is the only thing standing in the way of Socialism, Marxism, Fascism, and Communism.

You really laid it out here. Excellent. Given I am a more simple type humanoid I will hit bottom line for me personally ...

Christianity = personal responsibility and acceptance of consequences

Islam = knuckling under to the whims of someone else
