Obama is not a Christian

There I said it.

First of all, Obama does not know scripture int he least bit.
June 28, 2006 he talks about The Holy Bible and takes it MASSIVELY out of context.
"Should we go with Leviticus that suggests slavery is okay? Or we could go with Deuteronomy that suggests stoning your child if he strays for the faith. Or should we just stick to the sermon on the mount; a passage that is so radical that it is doubtful that our own defense department would survive its application. Folks haven't been reading there Bible."
Last time I checked Christians don't make fun of Jesus or The Holy Bible.
Maybe he is just an open heretic?

Obama - "I'm pro choice."
Open heretic again?
"If you believe that life begins at conception...that is a core issue of Faith for YOU." Not us?
"Science holds the key to our survival as a planet...it's time we put science at the top of our agenda." Not morals (which come from faith)
"It's [science] about ensuring that facts...are never twisted or obscured by politics or ideology...the highest purpose of science is for knowledge and truth." Scripture is the only truth there is. Science has scientific theories, not truths.

He does not attend mass each week.

"All people of faith - Christians, Jews, Muslims, Animists, everyone - knows the same God."
That's funny - that is not what the Christian Bible says. Jesus said in John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth, and the life. In 2008 Obama was asked if Jesus was the only way to salvation. He said "Jesus is the only way FOR ME." He affirms Christ as his own savior (to make people think he didn't lie when he ran as a Christian) but then negates Christ as the only savior of the world. Jesus warns us about this Matthew. Obama is then saying the death of Christ was unneeded since there are multiple paths. Who should we believe, Jesus Christ or Obama. Hmmm.....

He bowed to the Muslim king.

On multiple occasions he has said things about "my Muslim faith."

On multiple occasions he leaves out "endowed by our creator" in the DofI


He is simply not a Christian by any Biblical or historical measure.

Forgiveness

At my last confession, the Priest was able to get into my deepest feelings with a few minutes.
It was amazing what he knew about me without saying it. I hear God's words through him.

God...
I'm a sinner. I sin every day. I don't deserve the love you give to me. When I look up at the cross and thing about what you did for me, it's hard to understand why. I don't deserve you, yet every time I need you, you are there. Without fail you carry me through everything. I hope one day I will be worthy to stand in your presence. I'll fall to my knees and beg for your mercy. I'll pay for my sins and then I hope you invite me in.

God, forgive me for I am a sinner. I promise to follow your word, live your word and spread your word.
You are the light, the truth and the way.

My post today is more of a sad one...

I ran through the cemetery during my run today and of course my eyes filled wit tears as I started thinking of my grandma.
I remembered when I was in preschool. Ethan wanted to marry one of the girls in the class. Of course, I was jealous.
My mom asked who I was going to marry and I said i don't know. She said well what girl do u love the most? I thought for a few seconds and said Grandma. My mom gave me an old ring that I gave to her. Grandma asked what we will do with Pop Pop. I said throw him out!
I don't think I talked to him for like a month ahah.
Well, I still love you the most grandma. I don't want to throw Pop Pop out anymore though.
It's stories like this that make me laugh and cry at the same time.

I love you so much and I miss you.

Cast strength upon me, oh Lord. I wish i had no more tears to shed.
May I someday join her in paradise.

Silly Liberals...

Using the "alcohol is legal so marijuana should be legal" argument is stupid.

First off no one said alcohol being legal was a great idea. During prohibition alcohol related diseases went down, accidents went down, abuse....

Also, alcohol is used for many other things than simply getting drunk. It is used in cooking and pairing with food. People can drink one or two drinks at night with dinner or after dinner and not get drunk. Yes, people use it to get drunk and it causes problems...but that is a much smaller percentage than those who use it responsibly. And, again, I never said it was a great idea.

Lets look at marijuana. Number one it is a stepping stone to harder drug usage...which I think both sides can agree is not a good thing. No one smokes weed a little. Every time people smoke, it is to get high.
People murder other people over drugs. True. First, these people are obviously scummy, stupid and immoral. They can't find a legal way to make money and get a real job. They are also TAKING AWAY HUMAN LIFE. Do we really want that in the gene pool and have them raise kids that will continue in their footsteps. So a drug dealer gets killed? That means in 15 years when his son would have grown up we will have one less drug dealer on the streets, one less person mooching off the government. Doesn't bother me any. Maybe he would have been the one to offer YOUR kids drugs and start them on a life path to disaster.
Yes, murder will go down if it is legalized but I don't think it would be worth all of the other problems it will carry with it.

The ONLY good thing that could come of making marijuana legal, would be for the government to subsidize it, like they do with alcohol and tax the crap out of it and make easy money off pot heads. (They should also raise taxes on cigarettes enormously and alcohol reasonably.)

The theory that legalizing it will make the usage go down is silly. The only way this could happen is if the government taxes it so high, the poor (the majority of people who smoke pot) could not afford it.

Before any liberals start yelling, screaming and crying...
I didn't say I don't drink.
I didn't say all people who smoke are lazy pieces of shit.
I didn't say the immediate effects of smoking are that terrible.
I didn't say legalizing it wouldn't help boost the economy immediately.

Even the liberal socialist Obama said it is a silly idea.

Mass today

Going to Mass at Our Lady of Peace Parish, St Stephen Church, is always an experience.

When Mass started, the cantor had to tell a Church full of adults to turn off there cell phones. This, alone, is very sad. Then each time, without fail, someones cellphone goes off. Here is a news flash...God probably doesn't like when you distract everyone with your cellphone while HIS BODY is up on the altar. Leave your cellphones in the car adults. Whoever is trying to call you isn't as important as GOD.

To the people who let their kids talk the entire time. STOP DOING THAT. When I was a little kid my dad made me sit up straight and keep my hand folded to be respectful to God and those around me.

How about when we pray, middle aged man in the seat ahead, you actually pray instead of staring off aimlessly or rubbing your wifes back.

Ohh yeah and one more thing. Show up to Mass on time and don't leave after the Eucharist because MASS ISN'T OVER YET.

You might be thinking that none of these things are a big deal...but they are. They are distracting to the people around you and disrespectful.

On positive notes:

The Baptism was amazing. The baby was so happy and they had a whole lot of family there to support them. Way to start your baby on the right track for life! God bless your family.

We sang in Christ Alone...which is one of my new favorite songs.

Father Hoan is a funny guy.

The family next to me I see every time I go to 10:30 because we both always sit in the same spot. You can tell they didn't shower, or have nice clothes to wear. It looks like a grandmother taking care of her grandchildren. Without a doubt I know I will see them there. You are giving your grandchildren more than you even know. It's not about the material things. You are showing them God and that is a miracle. You are true blessing from God on your family and the people around you. How beautiful.

Someone brought up a decent point to me today about the hypocrisy of the right side. I clarified this to him and he, a democrat, actually suggested I write a blog posting about it because he actually thought I was right. There's a first...

The argument is that the right side supports rights for unborn babies yet does not support rights for homosexuals.
If there is a separation of church and government, which there very well should be if we are to continue the ideas this great country was founded on, then our arguments must be ones that are political, not religious.
An unborn baby is still a human and humans have rights. Religion aside, the country also says that murder is wrong. People can argue that it is still a fetus all they want and it doesn't count as life, but if they actually knew science, they would realize they are incorrect. I could write twenty-five pages on that...so I'll save that for another time. A quick point-of-thought...when someone is pregnant do they have fetus showers? Does anyone ask "how is your fetus doing?" No.

So, if we can agree that a unborn baby is a human, which I think anyone with an IQ above 50 can, we can agree that it has certain rights. One of those rights is life. It is a crime to kill a 50 year old, just like it is a crime to kill a baby. Abortion/murder leaves one dead and one wounded. The right is pro life because they think GASSPPP murder is wrong!(although they may feel the same in their religious beliefs)

The right side supports legal rights for heterosexual and homosexual couples. However, they do not support "gay marriage." They do support legal bindings. Well, is that fair?
Yes. Marriage was created by the church. If we are to have separation, than marriage for heterosexual or homosexual couples should not have anything to do with politics. It should be left up to the church to decide. The right doesn't support "homosexual marriage" because it has nothing to do with politics, not because of their religious beliefs (although they may feel the same in their religious beliefs)

Aside from that, I would like to clear up what Christians say about homosexuality.

Lets take a look at homosexuality. Here are some facts:
-A lot of Christians believe homosexual couples should have the same legal rights as heterosexual couples.
-Christians do not believe that being homosexual is a sin.
-Christians believe that leading a homosexual lifestyle is sinful.
-Christians believe that having premarital sex (be it with the same sex or opposite sex) is equally as sinful.
-Marriage is a sacrament between a man and women
-There ARE CHRISTIANS that ARE HOMOSEXUAL! They understand that isn't the lifestyle God wants for them. They try there best to lead a life of abstinence.

God controls your soul. He didn't make you homosexual. God creates us perfect and we CHOOSE to sin. I choose to sin. Everyone chooses to sin. People make the argument that "so I choose to be gay?" NO! Did people choose to be straight? NO! Development and nurture control that...I hope to write on this at another point as well to help explain.

Remember, Gods love is unconditional and timeless. He wrote two books, The Holy Bible and Nature. They NEVER contradict each other...ever.
