ISLAM AND THE JIHAD AGAINST MAJOR RELIGIONS

80 Comments

Christianity was not built on violence; Jesus was the Prince of Peace,  to love one another and turn the other cheek. Christianity began as a Second Temple Judaic sect in the mid-1st century. Originating in Judea, it quickly spread to Europe, Syria, Mesopotamia, Asia Minor, Transcaucasia, Egypt, Ethiopia and India, and by the end of the 4th century had become the official state church of the Roman Empire.

 Following the Age of Discovery, Christianity spread to the Americas, Australasia, sub-Saharan Africa and the rest of the world through missionary work and colonization. Christianity has played a prominent role in the shaping of Western civilization.

Where all other religions in the world teach that we must do some sort of good in cooperation with God in order to achieve the right to be in God’s presence, Christianity is the only religion that teaches salvation by grace.  This means that we are not made right before God by our efforts, sincerity, or works.  Instead, we are made right before God by faith in what Christ did on the cross.

Jesus did not speak His own words, but the words that the Father gave Him (John 8:38-42; 12:49-50; 14:24). His message was not primarily about Himself, but rather the good news that the Father ordained to be announced on earth. While Jesus Christ was categorically the most important individual ever to walk this earth, the Bible shows clearly that the gospel that Jesus brought was not simply about Himself. Read His statements, and prove this for yourself:

» And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. (Matthew 4:23)

Judaism’s main tenents: Unlike other ancient Near Eastern gods, the Hebrew God is portrayed as unitary and solitary; consequently, the Hebrew God’s principal relationships are not with other gods, but with the world, and more specifically, with the people he created. Judaism thus begins with ethical monotheism: the belief that God is one and is concerned with the actions of mankind. According to the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), God promised Abraham to make of his offspring a great nation. Many generations later, he commanded the nation of Israel to love and worship only one God; that is, the Jewish nation is to reciprocate God’s concern for the world. He also commanded the Jewish people to love one another; that is, Jews are to imitate God’s love for people. These commandments are but two of a large corpus of commandments and laws that constitute this covenant, which is the substance of Judaism.

Whereas Jewish philosophers often debate whether God is immanent or transcendent, and whether people have free will or their lives are determined, Halakha is a system through which any Jew acts to bring God into the world.

Ethical monotheism is central in all sacred or normative texts of Judaism. However, monotheism has not always been followed in practice. The Jewish Bible (Tanakh) records and repeatedly condemns the widespread worship of other gods in ancient Israel. In the Greco-Roman era, many different interpretations of monotheism existed in Judaism, including the interpretations that gave rise to Christianity.

Hinduism is a religion, or a way of life, widely practiced in the Indian subcontinent. Hinduism has been called the oldest religion in the world, and some practitioners and scholars refer to it as Sanātana Dharma, “the eternal tradition,” or the “eternal way,” beyond human history. Scholars regard Hinduism as a fusion synthesis of various Indian cultures and traditions, with diverse roots and no founder. This “Hindu synthesis” started to develop between 500 BCE and 300 CE  following the Vedic period (1500 BCE to 500 BCE).

Although Hinduism contains a broad range of philosophies, it is linked by shared concepts, recognisable rituals, cosmology, shared textual resources, and pilgrimage to sacred sites. Hindu texts are classified into Śruti (“heard”) and Smriti (“remembered”). These texts discuss theology, philosophy, mythology, Vedic yajna, Yoga, agamic rituals, and temple building, among other topics. Major scriptures include the Vedas and Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Agamas. Sources of authority and eternal truths in its texts play an important role, but there is also a strong Hindu tradition of the questioning of this authority, to deepen the understanding of these truths and to further develop the tradition.

Prominent themes in Hindu beliefs include the four Puruṣārthas, the proper goals or aims of human life, namely Dharma (ethics/duties), Artha (prosperity/work), Kama(desires/passions) and Moksha (liberation/freedom/salvation); karma (action, intent and consequences), Saṃsāra (cycle of rebirth), and the various Yogas (paths or practices to attain moksha). Hindu practices include rituals such as puja (worship) and recitations, meditation, family-oriented rites of passage, annual festivals, and occasional pilgrimages. Some Hindus leave their social world and material possessions, then engage in lifelong Sannyasa (monastic practices) to achieve Moksha. Hinduism prescribes the eternal duties, such as honesty, refraining from injuring living beings (ahimsa), patience, forbearance, self-restraint, and compassion, among others.

Buddhism is a religion and dharma that encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices largely based on teachings attributed to the Buddha. Buddhism originated in Ancient India sometime between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE, from where it spread through much of Asia, where after it declined in India during the Middle Ages. Two major extant branches of Buddhism are generally recognized by scholars: Theravada (Pali: “The School of the Elders”) and Mahayana (Sanskrit: “The Great Vehicle”). Buddhism is the world’s fourth-largest religion, with over 500 million followers or 7% of the global population, known as Buddhists.

Buddhist schools vary on the exact nature of the path to liberation, the importance and canonicity of various teachings and scriptures, and especially their respective practices. Practices of Buddhism include taking refuge in the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha, study of scriptures, observance of moral precepts, renunciation of craving and attachment, the practice of meditation (including calm and insight), the cultivation of wisdom, loving-kindness and compassion, the Mahayana practice of bodhicitta and the Vajrayana practices of generation stage and completion stage.

The Jihad: The primary aim of jihad as warfare is not the conversion of non-Muslims to Islam by force, but rather the expansion and defense of the Islamic state. In theory, jihad was to continue until “all mankind either embraced Islam or submitted to the authority of the Muslim state.” There could be truces before this was achieved, but no permanent peace. One who died ‘on the path of God’ was a martyr, (Shahid), whose sins were remitted and who was secured “immediate entry to paradise.” However, some argue martyrdom is never automatic because it is within God’s exclusive province to judge who is worthy of that designation.

Western civilization in regards to political Islam. She argues that Islam needs to be separated into two different parts, one part of religion and the other part, political philosophy. She concedes that many aspects of the religious part of Islam are peaceful but argues that the political side is much more concerning due to its focus on Dawa, which means “to plead or to call non-Muslims to Islam.” This call to convert people to Islam is what she argues was a driving force behind the spread of Islam throughout history.

CHRISTIANS ARE DEPLORABLE – CLINGING TO THEIR RELIGION AND GUNS

10 Comments

We are all deplorables now. There is no distinction between non-deplorables and deplorables. The progressive reality is that the “deplorables” vote Republican and the “non-deplorables” vote Democrat. But the reality is that the Democrat voters are deplorable in the eyes of the Democrats, that is why the progressive cabal continues to pander to them. For instance inner cities like St Louis and Chicago are a melting pot of Deplorables. Any blind person can see that.

It’s deplorable that Trump has built his campaign largely on prejudice and paranoia and given a national platform to hateful views and voices, including by retweeting fringe bigots with a few dozen followers and spreading their message to 11 million people,” Clinton said.

But its not deplorable to call 50% of Americans deplorable according the lying Clinton. In fact the most deplorable thing today is the inner city, their school system, their gang problem and the Democrat politicians who run these cities of violence and crime.

The lady is a fabrication, a joke, a liar, a killer, but most of all the American people know she should be in Jail. When you have to reply to your bigoted bias statement, America knows how you truly think. This was not an off the cuff remark, this a prewritten campaign speech. “Really strong together”, B.S. When the likes of the progressives have divided the nation and then they say we are stronger together?

Washington State mall massacre committed by Turkish immigrant. A 20-year-old Turkish immigrant was arrested Saturday in the murders of five people in a Washington state shopping mall, authorities said. The Jihad continues against Western Culture and Society.

 

Jordanian writer murdered for insulting ISLAM (a religion of peace).

Jordan writer in blasphemy case Nahid Hattar killed

cr7lpqnxeaa1ezx

Nahid Hattar, a Christian, was hit by three bullets outside the court in the capital Amman where he was standing trial, state news agency Petra said.

(click)Mr Hattar’s killer was arrested and police are investigating the killing, TV reports said.

The writer was detained in August for 15 days on charges of insulting God.

The cartoon he shared depicts a bearded man lying in bed with two women and smoking, asking God to bring him a drink.

Mr Hattar was attacked on social media for being anti-Islam.

He said he had not meant to cause offence and wanted to expose radical Islamists’ view of heaven.

But the authorities said he had broken the law by sharing the cartoon.

Time and time again, Islamic nations have not only proved but certified the vicious nature of their beliefs.

Answers are demanded by today’s lying politicians to the salient question why they believe that Muslims can be integrated into Western societies. It has never been done  in 1500 years. Only an IDIOT believes it possible. 

 

Afghan, who planted bombs in NY and NJ caught red handed. Ahmad Khan Rahami, 28, who was described as “armed and dangerous.”

Rahami’s family lives in an apartment above First American Fried Chicken in Elizabeth, New Jersey, Mayor Chris Bollwage said. The family has a history of clashes with the community over the restaurant, which used to be open 24 hours a day,
— The Rahami family alleged discrimination and harassment in a lawsuit against the city and its police department in 2011, arguing that officials conspired against them with citations for allegedly violating a city ordinance on hours of operation.
— The suit alleged that police officers and city officials had said “the restaurant presented a danger to the community.” It also accused a neighboring business owner of saying, “Muslims make too much trouble in this country” and “Muslims don’t belong here.” The defendants, including police officers and city officials, denied the allegations.
— Bollwage said a 2012 ruling on the case favored the city, adding that the family’s restaurant was “disruptive in the city for many, many years.”

This malcontent never fit in (they never do), a loner, a deadbeat, unhappy with Western ways, dissatisfied of everything America stands for, an outsider, raged about American way, homophobic, a cultural malcontent; family had reservations too, they were schizophrenic, accused police of harassment, brought suit against the town, thought they were the object of discrimination. Please note that the the culprit had 7 brothers and sisters. Click here to learn more about the Rahmani family and their Jihadist view of America. Total estimated cost for the bombings etc is $100,000,000. Is Clinton going to cough up the money to pay for this.

This type of behavior is prevalent in the Muslim community. Contrary to outreach by Christians and Jews, the assimilation of Muslims with the zestful lives of the West is never going to happen. Fifteen hundred years of brainwashing, intimidation, infighting between themselves and some think there is hope that a cultural red line or glass ceiling will be penetrated. No way, ain’t gonna happen. Haven’t Americans noticed the demands of Muslims, demands that we, America, bow down to their culture rather than vice-versa. It must stop before it is too late.

The bottom line here is that these people were not Americans, but angry immigrants who were not happy in in the land of the Cowboy, blaming US for their failures We have seen these types in every community, money hungry, anti America, never to be culturally assimilated, accumulating money to be used for their retirement back in their home country. One may ask why did you come here in the first place? These people are interested in building America, they are interested in tearing it down.

France has the problem, we have the problem, New York has the problem, Saint Cloud has the problem.  Of course these incidents are always condemned, but that is like papering over the real problem. Muslims do not fit in, PERIOD. Donald Trump is the man to not hold back, but to do what should be done. And we all no what that is. And to reiterate, this Muslim malcontent had Jihad training in Afghanistan and Pakistan. He was interview about this, his answer, he was visiting relatives. Relatives, most relatives in these countries are Jihadists, suicide bomber types. Again, the FBI fell flat on their face.

Islam,  is the religion of Satan. This is a given, no matter how many spokesman defend the “religion of peace” it will never fly in America. Christianity, the Judeo-Christian ethic and Western civilization is anathema to Muslims. Their ways do not culturally fit into our society. The sooner we realize this, the better off we will be. Every predominantly Muslim country in the Middle East will be free of Christians by the next decade. Turkey, once the focal point of Eastern Christendom, Constantinople their Rome, has less than 170,000 Christians amongst 80,000,000 Muslims. Erdogan will see to it that those remaining will suffer pain by the day.

But we weigh in, one salient point needs description. The NBTP has nothing against Muslims who live peacefully in their own countries; there is no animosity here. For instance, Morocco, Tunisia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, for the most part are peaceful and law abiding. In fact, Saudi Arabia is a prime example where Islam, the Sunni version, predominates religious and social life. However, Christianity, no churches in Mecca or Medina, is forbidden.  This is due to the cultural class of Christianity and Islam. The government seeks the status quo going back 1500 years.

Muslim society goes about their ways without cultural conflict obeying their strict code of Islam for the most part without allowing Christian values to permeate their culture. The above examples provide an insight on the areas of conflict among society. The best way to prevent a continuation of flash points is to recognize that the Koran is not compatible with the Bible. Integration will never succeed when two religions clash, not only at the margins, but in the body of verses. So let it be said, let it be done, separation is the avenue toward peace, integration is the avenue toward revenge and conflict.

SALAFI – THE POLITICAL DEHUMANIZATION OF SOCIETY

[VIDEO] An Islamic Salafi Classroom in the UK

FROM MARKET SLANT 

by Soren K.

Warning: (Click FOR VIDEO)Sensitive material. Violent intolerant concepts being taught to minors.

This is likely a Salafi teacher. Why that matters at the bottom as described by Nicholas Nassim Taleb

The first reaction of many people educated in the West after seeing something like the above is disbelief. That is the liberal side of you living in false hope there is no evil in the world. The side of you that believes in relativism and that we cannot know the absolute. It does not want to judge. It forgets that just because we cannot know absolute hate, does not mean it does not exist. To you my liberal friend, I say this. Hope and denial are different sides of the same coin.

The first reaction of many others in the West is anger and a desire to stamp out this atrocity. That is a conservative orthodox side of a person that thinks it has the right to correct that which it hates with more hate. That killing the person responsible for this will fix the problem. No, it will only fan the flames. And if it doesn’t and the crusader wins, what will be the cost in lives, lost culture and generations of healing.

I do not pretend to know the right answer. But we must acknowledge that evil exists and that even Ghandi had a point where he would take up arms. Everyone does.

Conversely we must know that while defending ourselves is at some point unavoidable in a cause we determine to be righteous, the line to which we are moved to cross in defense of innocent lives is not easily known.

Personally, I felt both feelings when viewing the above. The disbelief and the rage both were felt deeply.

  • Disbelief- “This  must be fake”- but I don’t believe so. Assume it is real
  • Rage- “This woman must be stopped at all cost”- on who’s authority do I claim the right to do so and define all cost

Ignorance and hate exist in the world. We are not advocating reciprocal hate against Muslims. We are deeply saddened that these children are being inculcated into a hateful black and white world before they can even reason. Then when they begin to function as rational human beings, they are slammed even more with pseudo reason. Christianity had its dark ages and may be headed in that direction again if the polarization of Islamic  youth  continues.

Nicholas Taleb on Fundamentalist “Religions”

A definition of Salafi as commonly understood is in order first.

Salafis are fundamentalists who believe in a return to the original ways of Islam. The word ‘Salafi’ comes from the Arabic phrase, ‘as-salaf as-saliheen’, which refers to the first three generations of Muslims (starting with the Companions of the Prophet), otherwise known as the Pious Predecessors.

And the main thrust of Taleb’s point addresses this misconception

FTA:The problem with the European Union is that the naive I.Y.I. (intellectuals yet idiots) bureaucrats and representatives of the talking “elites” (these fools who can’t find a coconut on Coconut island) are fooled by the label. They treat Salafism as just a religion –with its houses of “worship” — when in fact it is just an intolerant political system, which promotes (or allows) violence and refuses the institutions of the West –those that allow them to operate. -NNTaleb

OBAMA ON ISLAM – CHRISTIANITY

84 Comments

1. “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam”

3. “We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world — including in my own country.”

4. “As a student of history, I also know civilization’s debt to Islam.”

5. “Islam has a proud tradition of tolerance.”

6. From Obama’s book, The Audacity of Hope: “I am not willing to have the state deny American citizens a civil union that confers equivalent rights on such basic matters as hospital visitation or health insurance coverage simply because the people they love are of the same sex—nor am I willing to accept a reading of the Bible that considers an obscure line in Romans to be more defining of Christianity than the Sermon on the Mount.”

7. Obama’s response when asked what his definition of sin is: “Being out of alignment with my values.”

8. “If all it took was someone proclaiming I believe Jesus Christ and that he died for my sins, and that was all there was to it, people wouldn’t have to keep coming to church, would they.”

9. “This is something that I’m sure I’d have serious debates with my fellow Christians about. I think that the difficult thing about any religion, including Christianity, is that at some level there is a call to evangelize and prostelytize. There’s the belief, certainly in some quarters, that people haven’t embraced Jesus Christ as their personal savior that they’re going to hell.”

10. “I find it hard to believe that my God would consign four-fifths of the world to hell.  I can’t imagine that my God would allow some little Hindu kid in India who never interacts with the Christian faith to somehow burn for all eternity.  That’s just not part of my religious makeup.”

On Christianity:

1. “Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation”

2. “We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation.”

3. “Which passages of scripture should guide our public policy?  Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that eating shellfish is an abomination?  Or we could go with Deuteronomy, which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith?”

4. “Even those who claim the Bible’s inerrancy make distinctions between Scriptural edicts, sensing that some passages – the Ten Commandments, say, or a belief in Christ’s divinity – are central to Christian faith, while others are more culturally specific and may be modified to accommodate modern life.”

5. “The American people intuitively understand this, which is why the majority of Catholics practice birth control and some of those opposed to gay marriage nevertheless are opposed to a Constitutional amendment to ban it. Religious leadership need not accept such wisdom in counseling their flocks, but they should recognize this wisdom in their politics.”

 

MIDDLE EAST CHRISTIANS AT A CROSS-ROADS

10 Comments

Not a day goes by where Christians are blown to bits, unsightly slaughtered by violent Jihadists. Contrary to what some leaders say, the Middle Eastern Christians are on the verge of extinction; hope is fa figment of their imagination. They have no choice, move or be killed. Bloody as it sounds, the reality is that it is happening under the eyes of the Christian world who either looks the other way or wishes it went away.

There is no appeasing the radical mindset of a Islamist. At first it was the Jews who pay the Dhimmi, with them gone the Islamists go after the Christians. Unless all Christians are eradicated from countries with large Muslim populations the blowing-up, targeting, harassing, killing, raping will continue. Pray for peace, but the reality is peace to us is war to them.

CHRISTIANITY TODAY IN ISRAEL – JUDEA AND SAMARIA

11 Comments

The latest message from the Palestinian Authority. As published in the Jerusalem Post. 

 President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday accused Israel of continuing to “consolidate an Apartheid regime by accelerating policies that destroy the two-state solution.”

Abbas’s latest accusation came in a “Christmas Message” in which he repeated other charges against Israel, such as the construction of an “Annexation Wall” and the uprooting of “historic olive trees” near Bethlehem.

“Jesus is a symbol for all Palestinians,” Abbas said. “Palestine and its people take pride in being the birthplace of Christianity and having the oldest Christian community in the world.”

Palestinians in Bethlehem, he said, would celebrate Christmas this year “surrounded by 18 illegal settlements and an annexation wall, which are taking over their land.”

Abbas went on to say this Christmas comes during a particularly difficult period and that international intervention is “desperately needed to protect the Palestinians.”

He accused Israeli extremists of attacking mosques and churches, and said the “twin cities of Bethlehem and Jerusalem have been separated for the first time in more than 2,000 years of Christianity.”

The PA president stressed that there can be no Palestinian state without Jerusalem as its capital.

He also reiterated his condemnation of terrorism by Islamic State and other groups, saying he supported action against them.

“We express our solidarity with the peoples who have been affected by their evil actions, and particularly with the millions of refugees who were forced to leave their homes in search of safety,” he said.

SEE THE STORY FOLLOWING WHICH IS AT ODDS TO ABBAS’S CUDDLING OF CHRISTIANS THIS TIME OF YEAR.

The latest Christian Church burning by Muslim extremists, September 2015

Obama’s “peace partner,” the Palestinian Authority, has been “curiously” silent over the major fire set yesterday at a Christian church in Bethlehem, the biblical birthplace of Jesus Christ. Curious? Hardly.

The destruction of churches is a rife in Muslim countries. It’s hardly exclusive to ISIS.

Gabriel Naddaf, spokesman for the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem, wrote on his Facebook: “I call to strongly condemn the burning of the holy Church ‘St. Charbel’ burned tonight in Bethlehem by Palestinian extremists. I condemn in the strongest terms the powerlessness of the Palestinian Authority in maintaining the holy places of Christians in Palestinian territories. I call PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas to handle the hazardous events seriously and with severity instead of preaching morality to Israel.”

But Abbas did no such thing. And the world is so cowed by these devout savages, they have come to silently accept this evil, and worse still, shill for it.

Benjamin Netanyahu posted in his Facebook page:

“I am proud that the Christian community in Israel has grown each year. Unfortunately, across the Middle East, that trend happens only in Israel. In many other parts of our region, the Christian community is persecuted and attacked. Even in the territories of the Palestinian Authority, including Bethlehem, the cradle of Christianity, the Christian community is shrinking every year.

“PA Strangely Silent after Muslims Set Bethlehem Church Afire,” By Yaacov Levi,  Israel National News, September 27, 2015
The Palestinian Authority has been curiously speechless after Muslims set a major fire at a Christian church in Bethlehem Saturday.

bethlehem church

The Palestinian Authority has been curiously silent over a major fire at a Christian church in Bethlehem.

In its sole statement, the PA said that the fire at the St. Charbal church in the city was caused by an “electrical malfunction” – a description that is at odds with an account by Israeli Christian Arab Father Gabriel Naddaf, who said that the church was burned down Saturday night by “Palestinian extremists.”

“I condemn with all my heart the laxness of the Palestinian Authority in protecting Christian holy places it controls. I also hope that all the Christian leaders who demonstrated when the Church of Bread and Fishes near Tiberias was burned down will also demonstrate against this terrible act,” Naddaf wrote on his Facebook page.

According to Christian community leaders in Bethlehem, the fire was started by extremist Islamists who for months have been threatening community members with harm. As a result of the fire, several rooms on the church’s second floor were completely destroyed. No one was killed or injured.

Sources quoted by Naddaf said that the fire was just another in a long series of attacks by Muslims against Christians in Bethlehem. “The PA tries to sweep these incidents under the rug but it never condemns these acts, which interfere with freedom of religion,” the sources said. Before PA chief Mahmoud Abbas “lectures Israel on its morality, he should look at his own responsibilities and deal with them appropriately,” Naddaf wrote.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu also discussed the fire on his Facebook page, saying that he was “very proud that the Christian community in Israel grows annually. Unfortunately Israel is the only place in the Middle East where this is happening. In most parts of the region, Christians are persecuted and attacked. In the PA as well, including in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Christianity, the Christian community shrinks each year.

“If the church was burned down by extremists, I would expect the PA to do everything possible to catch those responsible, as Israel has done when it comes to attacks on shrines of all religions,” Netanyahu added.

ABBAS A PSEUDO PALESTINIAN SUICIDE BOMBER

Posted on by

Just as he does every December, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, along with other PA officials, made the Christmastime claim that Jesus Christ was a Palestinian, rather than a Judean. What an insult to Christianity and Christian history to have this Jew Hater spew out this filth which denigrates Christianity and the Son of God. Abbas, a suicide bomber, has resorted to what can be called hallucinations of the mind.  So now we have it, according to Mazen, Jesus is a Palestinian Muslim.

The facts from the new testament, text defines Jesus as  a Jewish resident of Judea. The Roman Empire changed the name of “Judea” to “Palestine” one hundred years after Jesus’s death.

Palestinian Christians have suffered as dhimmis for centuries. An English traveler in the Holy Land in 1816, for example, remarked that Christians were not permitted to ride on horseback without express permission from the Muslim Pasha.5

Other European travelers to the Holy Land mentioned the practice whereby “a dhimmi must not come face to face with a Muslim in the street but pass him to the left, the impure side,” and described how Christians were humiliated and insulted in the streets of Jerusalem until the mid-1800s. The British consul in Jerusalem wrote that in the Holy Land, particularly in Jerusalem until 1839, Christians were pushed into the gutter by any Muslim who would swear: “turn to my left, thou dog.” They were forbidden to ride on a mount in town or to wear bright clothes.

From 1953 until 1967, Jordan undertook to Islamize the Christian quarter in the Old City of Jerusalem by laws forbidding Christians to buy land and houses….It ordered the compulsory closure of schools on Muslim holidays and authorized mosques to be built near churches, thus preventing any possibility of enlargement.

In Israel, too, Muslim fundamentalists seek to assert dominance over Christian Arabs. “Attacks against and condemnation of Christians are also often heard in mosques, in sermons and in publications of the Muslim Movement.”16 In Nazareth, a significant clash developed in recent years when Muslims sought to build a grand mosque next to the Basilica of the Annunciation, the dominant Christian landmark in the town

The PA, in fact, denies historic Jewish – and thus Christian – ties to Jerusalem. Walid M. Awad, Director of Foreign Publications in the Palestinian Ministry of Information, asserted: “The location of the [Jewish] Temple on the Temple Mount is in question….There are scholars who say that it might be in Jericho or somewhere else 4 kilometers outside of Jerusalem.” Asked “The New Testament talks of Jesus going to the Temple in Jerusalem. Are you suggesting that Jesus went to Jericho rather than Jerusalem?” he responded, “It depends on what temple you think he went to.”44 U.S. Ambassador Dennis Ross asserted: “The only new idea [Arafat] raised at Camp David was that the temple didn’t exist in Jerusalem.”

Continuing the Islamic tradition of Saladin – who constructed two mosques contiguous to and taller than the Church of the Holy Sepulcher – mosques have mushroomed adjacent to and usually taller than churches. Loudly amplified Muslim sermons have been aired during Christian services, including the Pope’s April 2000 address in Nazareth, which had to be halted until the Muslim call to prayer was concluded.

Christians should start demanding blood for blood when it comes to Muslim incitement. Prayers only go so far.

 

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH by MICHAEL OBERNDORF

Enough!

 

It seems as if it’s at least once a week over the past seven years that one conservative columnist or another, and often several, lists the crimes and blundering of Obama and his administration. Everything these radicals have done has served to undermine the Constitution, the Rule of Law, our traditional culture, Christianity, our economy, our sovereignty, and our national security. Had they been white conservatives, any one of these actions would have gotten them, a) impeached; b) investigated by a Special Prosecutor; c) indicted; or, at the least, d) driven to resign. But since We, the People no longer have any real representation in Washington, none of this has occurred.

Our government has been taken over in a silent coup by radical Marxists, neo-fascists, and self-serving con men, posing as elected representatives from both parties. Over and over and over and over,  the ruling “elite” has ignored the fact that 60 to 90% of the American people have opposed the laws and policies that they have gone ahead and shoved down our throats, anyway. These have been discussed in excruciating detail time and again in the past, so I will not repeat what you should already know.

Instead, I want to look at what’s happening today, right now. The free world, aka, the civilized West, is being overrun by a barbarian invasion (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44vzMNG2fZc). It is being passed off as “refugees”, but the vast majority of the invaders are military age, single, Muslim males. Obama has sneeringly mocked those who have voiced concerns over this fact – repeat: FACT! – accusing them of being afraid of “widows and 3-year-olds”. However, he fails to acknowledge that there are almost zero of these among the invaders. Instead he tries to tell us, Americans who, unlike him, were raised in this country, by freedom-loving parents with the Judeo-Christian values that have made America a bastion of freedom, that not allowing him to foist 100,000 or more of these potential violent, Muslim terrorists on us is “not who we are.”

 

Indeed, it is his policies in the Middle East that have created ISIL/ISIS and allowed dozens of other Islamic jihadist organizations to arise and/or expand exponentially. And though after years of attacks, he still refuses to admit that nearly all the acts of terrorism worldwide are by Mulsim zealots (https://www.facebook.com/AussieLanguage/videos/vb.213358308795914/671460799652327/?type=2&theater).

The “mainstream” media, in blatant collusion with him, also refuses to call it Islamic terrorism, and is complicit in aiding him in covering it up at home (http://www.dcclothesline.com/2015/11/22/a-list-of-islamic-terror-attacks-planned-andor-accomplished-in-the-us-that-hussein-obama-has-covered-up/).

Many in America are convinced that Obama is a closet Muslim and his actions over that past eight years have done nothing to disabuse us of this notion (https://www.facebook.com/Gallagher.Mike/posts/10150459723149943).

In fact, as we speak, Obama is touring Asia, bad-mouthing America in Muslim countries as he has done before, trying to make it look like those who resist his pro-Islamic jihadist policies are an ignorant, bigoted minority. In addition, his attempt to force 100,000 Muslims into American communities – mostly in Republican areas – is clearly – repeat: CLEARLY! – an attack on our freedom unprecedented (there’s that word again that the “mainstream” media love to apply to his actions) in the entire history of OUR country.

Enough!

The time has come for We, the People, who make up the clear majority of the citizens of America, to stand up and demand that Barack Hussein Obama resign from office, immediately. It’s obvious that no one in Congress will live up to their sworn Oath of Office to do their mandated duty and impeach him. Thus, it is up to us, the ones suffering most under his oppressive, dangerous, destructive, and totally unconstitutional and un-American policies, to take back the power we mistakenly delegated to the cabal occupying our capitol and the White House.

We need to take to the streets, declare a general, nationwide strike if necessary, and not stop until he steps down. We have seen the left force out dozens of conservatives over the years, including a Republican president, so what we would be demanding is not in the least extreme. And since the left will hysterically scream “racism”, merely cite what has been pointed out in the column above. Tell them, “It’s his actions, not the color of his skin,  stupid!”

This, of course, is not to say that if any of the Republican candidates want to support us in the demand for Obama’s immediate resignation that they would not be welcome. But this needs to be ours. We don’t need another self-proclaimed “leader” to make this happen. America is OUR country. We, the People are the owners, and it’s time we acted like it.

 

POLITICALLY CORRECT CHRISTIANS – OUR GREATEST THREAT

585 Comments

With Obama leading the band on politically correctness Christians have no chance in dictating the message. Do not be mistaken by the lies coming from the liberal progressive cabal. Those lies infer that the country was not born on the Judeo-Christian ethich, but were free of a state sponsored religion. Truth be told, the country was born on a strict moral code reflecting the biblical truths that orthodox Christians hold dear; this includes those of the Jewish faith. Don’t be misled by today’s Romans.

The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights.

Notice the word “respecting” which according to the  Merriam-Webster dictionary means “considering“. In (click here for more details) Everson v. Board of Education (1947), the Court drew on Founding Father Thomas Jefferson‘s correspondence to call for “a wall of separation between church and State”, though the precise boundary of this separation remains in dispute.

Let there be no mistake about it the Founding Fathers adhered to the Christian faith in some way or another, they believed in the Ten Commandments, but most of all were men of morals. Washington took his oath of office with an altar bible borrowed from the St. John’s Lodge No. 1, Ancient York Masons lodge in New York and he kissed the Bible after taking the oath of office. Subsequent presidents followed suit, up to and including Harry Truman, but Dwight D. Eisenhower broke that tradition by saying his own prayer instead of kissing the Bible.

As time progressed many citizens were offended by symbols of Christianity, suits were brought, regulations changed and symbols removed. Additionally, courts have ruled that any form, be it words, statutes or verse be removed from public property. These courts have desecrated the foundation of the United States and the principles which it stands for.

We see the results today, foreigners with a different culture have been invited into our country with a religious zeal of hate. This hate has been instilled in them from birth; “infidels are to be killed or forced to convert.”

We are concerned that the majority of today’s Christians are pacified. They have rolled over without a fight, watching the principles they stand for tarnished to no end. We are not saying that Christian should be promoted by government, but we are saying is that the principles of Christianity should be the guiding light going forward without government interference.

We might ask why are the Ten Commandments place so often on court houses, schools, public places if it were not for instilling a strict moral code on its citizens?

Our country is at war, one that we are losing. Unless the Judeo-Christian ethic is once again vigorously promoted the United States, the moral leader of the free world, will lose, if it has not already done so, its preeminent status in the world.

One salient point, sending children to parochial schools saves the taxpayer $10,000 at a minimum per child and people had the audacity to question the subsidy for school bus transportation. What nerve.

 

MIDDLE EAST CHRISTIANITY HAS GONE THE WAY OF THE DINOSUARS

1 Comment

So let it be said, so let it be done. Countries ruled by the Islamists have either killed or run the Christians from their historic homelands. Turkey and Iran are bereft of Christians. The interesting narrative here is that the Christian world under the leadership of the Pope turns a blind eye to the killing of their brethren. The Muslims who give solace to the remaining Christians do so as a public relations gimmick. Erdogan of Turkey is a perfect example.

Christianity in the Middle East is in a death spiral. Once the majority they soon will be non existent. Turkey, once a 100% Christian nation has only 200,000 remaining out of a population of 80,000,000. Christian Europe, the appeaser of appeasers, stand by while their people are murdered by today’s Muslim Mongols. This is a battle of culture; peace on one side, mass murder on the other. When will they learn that there is no compromise in accommodating a religion of destruction, killing and rape.
