Misinterpreting the Christian Response
Misinterpreting the Christian Response
Many “alleged” Christians fail to see typical Christian responses to evil in the world. In the haste to stop the killing of 6 million Jews, thousands of Christians signed up to go and fight. But closely scrutinize who says Christians stood back and watched in silence. Few mention Pope Pius XXII’s secret actions to transport as many Christians as possible out of Nazi Germany, or the hundreds of Catholics that worked tirelessly to save as many Jews and Christians from death camps, or even Saint Maximilian Kolbe who traded his life for a citizen incarcerated in a death camp.
Those “kangaroo” Christians seem to forget who came up with the Emancipation Proclamation (Lincoln{Christian}), or a Congress of mostly Christian Republicans who passed the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution—mainstays for all Blacks today. The writer remembers Catholic Archbishop Joseph Rummel excommunicating three segregationists (1962) for refusing to integrate church schools in Louisiana.
Starting in 1981, the perfect solution was devised for the oncoming crisis of HIV/AIDS, much of which was transpiring in the Black community. A Nobel laureate couldn’t have come up with a better solution—total fidelity in marriage, and no sex with anyone but your marriage partner. Many ignore that advice.
Shockingly, many have molded “enhanced interrogation techniques” with “torture”. There’s a huge difference--as well as a major definition variance--they don’t want to talk about. Torture involves extreme physical pain or even death, such as the cutting off of appendages, gouging of eyes, use of shredders to the body, electrical shock—you name it. Blood is usually involved.
But water boarding, only done on 3 prisoners in the US, is probably the most “enhanced” of the techniques. Because of the conditions of the test, there was no pain, no blood, no death—only fear. As a result, hundreds maybe thousands, were saved from certain death from terrorists during the “Second Wave”--an assault intended for a high rise on the West Coast, but thwarted by the information gained from water boarding those three terrorists. Interestingly, all three terrorists are walking around today with their digits intact, tongues attached, and none the worse physically or mentally.
It’s likely even Jesus would have OK’d water boarding if it would have saved his Mom. He would’ve done the same to save his Dad, or any one of His disciples. For that matter, He even died to save all humans. It’s obvious He would not be happy with those who voted for the candidate who kills because it’s above his “pay grade” to know if they’re alive. Checking the Commandments, killing innocents is against the 5th. Because pro-aborts don’t know for sure life does not exist at conception, they are still willing to risk that it’s not killing.

America needs revival... fall on your face before the Lord!
America is in deep need of spiritual revival. Our beloved country has become a haven for a sin-filled culture that no longer recognizes absolute good and absolute evil. Absolute truth is loosing it’s value in our society because of what our secualr school administrators are indoctrinating our children’s minds with. Homosexual indoctrination, the acceptance of abortion on demand, the teaching that morals are not absolute and are not from God, etc. has become the norm for America these days.
However, there are those of us that know absolute truth and know that God is still in control and still judges nations just as he did in the Old Testament times. We need revival in America. We need our churches leaders to start re-instating truth filled sermons instead of watered down sermons designed not to hurt someone’s feelings. We need a spritual awakening like never before. In order for God to stay His judgment on sinful America, we must repent and turn back to Him.
There is a national movemnet to do so. It s called the Call To Fall - on our faces before God and ask for His mercy on our nation. It is a call for revival.
I ask you to visit the website and tell you church leaders about the call to fall before the Lord in repentance and to join the revival movement on July 5, 2009.
Please be in prayer for that day and for our nation that God may bless us an forgive us for our nation’s rebellion against Him.
Sincerely,
Rob Hood

America''s Christian Heritage
Believe it or not, but America was indeed founded upon Christian principles. Some far left atheists and agnostics do not like to hear this so they fight against it using fake quotes given by college professor talking points in a left leaning classroom atmosphere. It’s odd that atheists think that the founders of America had no religion when it is a fact that the people back then were very much more religious than we “right wing extremists” are today. Here are a few sites that you might enjoy while learning about real American history not taught in public government funded schools, but only by private research:

Parents Fight Homosexual Indoctrination of Kindergartners
Parents fight homosexual indoctrination of kindergarteners
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 5/16/2009
A California school district seems intent on teaching pre-school children to accept the homosexual lifestyle.
The Alameda Unified School District announced it was considering a supplemental curriculum to eradicate “homophobia” in kindergarten children. Brad Dacus, founder of the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), said the meeting room for the public session earlier this week was overcrowded with angry parents.
“Nowhere at anytime did it give any protection for children being bullied because of their faith, their religion, their size, their race, ethnicity,” he points out. “It is only going to give this special anti-bullying protection for homosexuals and transsexuals.”
Dacus said an attorney from PJI spoke before the board meeting. “And [the attorney] made it very clear that this is an abridgement and an affront to the neutral role that school districts are supposed to play in respecting the rights of parents and not to engage in such overt and open indoctrination and mandatory acceptance of such controversial, immoral lifestyles,” he concludes.
Parents cannot opt out their children from the curriculum. Dacus says it is important to remember that the children are kindergarten age, and many cannot even write their names—
yet they are being taught that homosexuality is an acceptable lifestyle.

“Mission Accomplished” Sign Means More than You Think
“Mission Accomplished” Sign Means More than You Think
This morning Diane Sawyer (GMA) brought a “Mission Accomplished” sign out, and couldn’t wait to get rid of it because of her distaste. A more personal bias of the war in Iraq by the media has likely never been seen. The rest of the cast seemed to have the same disrespect for the sign, and anyone has to ask “What do they not know?” Or probably more succinctly “What are they refusing to believe?
The first and foremost mission of going into Iraq was to remove Hussein from power. He could have removed himself peaceably, but he chose not to. He was eventually killed by execution by the people he maligned for so long.
But one might wonder how one could think that the mission was actually accomplished. We know that Hussein was removed from power, and according to the AP, the grand total of 110,600 Iraqis actually died since the American incursion: Michael Medved : Honest Numbers on Iraqi Deaths Deserve Honest … This seems to contrast with irresponsible estimates of 10x that high, while most of those deaths were accomplished by terrorist IEDs.
We know that no innocent Iraqi was ever targeted to be killed by the military. Also independent elections have taken place to revitalize the Iraqi dream. And we know that not a drop of Iraqi oil was taken from Iraqi soil.
In Iraq 3100 schools have been renovated, 38 new schools have been built, Iraqi women are now allowed to attend schools, Iraq’s air force now consists of three operational squadrons, Iraq’s police force has over 55,000 fully trained and equipped police officers, there are more than 1100 new building projects, there are 1,192,000 cell phone subscribers, cell phone use has gone up 158%, and the Baghdad Stock Exchange opened on 6/04.
All of the previous facts, and many others, can be verified on the Department of Defense website: [http://www.defenselink.mil/].
So many things mainstream media never says: as promised on 2/08 by Col. Michael A. Bills, commander of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, US and Iraqi troops were in full control of Mosul by the end of 7/08. Mosul was one of the last bastions of terrorists left in Iraq. (Mosul footage here.)
Overall, attacks in Mosul and in Ninevah province have declined from 50 a day at the start of the year, to the present number of 10 a day. Major Ra’ad Jalal, an Iraqi officer, revealed: “The security situation in Mosul is improving. It’s safe here now. I’d be happy to come here even without all of this protection.” [12/08]
The continued assaults are fewer, but they don’t diminish the momentous progress. Capt. Hunter Bowers, who presently is in Mosul, summarized his thoughts about their progress in a recent e-mail: “We have had some great success here and a lot of it has to do with the integration of the Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police.”
Hussein has been removed, over 40 million Iraqis are now free to run their own country with their own oil, and America and its allies do not have to worry about a terrorist nuclear bomb on their front doorstep made by Hussein.
The mission has been more than accomplished. But what does that say about the media?

Water Boarding Not Torture by a Long Shot
Water Boarding Not Torture by a Long Shot
Many redefine definitions, and readjust known words to fit one’s politics. It’s been done before, and is being done now. Definitions of marriage, movie ratings, euthanasia, adultery, and torture have all been changed and modified to fit what many say they should mean.
If one takes the word “torture”, the Thorndike-Barnhart dictionary defines the word as “the act of inflicting very severe pain; a very severe pain or suffering—agony”. That definition was published in 1979.
That definition includes eye gouging, electrical shock, cutting out of tongues, cutting off appendages, putting live bodies into shredders, etc., etc…are normally employed by your average terrorist. Now, many roll a number of other items into that definition called “enhanced interrogation methods”.
They include “walling” (people ‘pay’ to have rougher things done to them at Cedar Point Amusement Park), the “attention grasp”, the “facial slap”, “dietary manipulation”, “sleep deprivation”, a “stinging insect” (harmless caterpillar), and worst of all—“water boarding” (simulated drowning).
The CIA briefed top Democrats and Republicans (including Pelosi and Rockefeller) more than 30 times between 2002 and 2006, who “each got complete, benchmark briefings on the programs”. This source continued to speak on a condition of anonymity: “If Congress wanted to kill this program, all it had to do was withhold funding.” Some Democrats have called for prosecutions of the Bush administration officials for allowing enhanced techniques to be used. One of the full interrogation memos is available at GOPUSA.
Michigan Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R) stated that any Democrats who raise concerns now are being disingenuous at best. It seems they signed off on such techniques in 2002, but now they’re raising doubts. Pelosi knew that water boarding was in the planning stages, but her source admitted she did not object. Pelosi’s reply: Yes, the Bush Office of Legal Counsel said the techniques “could be used”, she explained, “but not that they would.”
Porter Goss who became the CIA Director, specifically wrote in the Washington Post, he, the Senate Intelligence Committee members, and Pelosi herself, were comprehensively briefed, “understood what the CIA was doing,” and “gave the CIA our bipartisan support” [http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/dsaunders/2009/ds_0430.shtml]. Bottom line: if the definition of torture is to be changed, you add another dictionary entry. You don’t just add on to a previous definition.
In actuality, a Democrat Congress refused to ban water boarding twice in the passage of the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005, and the Military Commissions Act of 2006. The CIA has a pointed memo that water boarding could only be used under very strict limitations: 1) only if the CIA has credible evidence that a terrorist attack is imminent, and knowing this information can prevent, disrupt, or delay this attack, and 2) other…methods have failed to illicit this information within the perceived time limit for preventing this attack.
Kalid Sheik Mohammed (KSM) was one of only three terrorists water boarded in 2003 by the CIA. No more have been done. Before they were water boarded, Abu Zubaydah and KSM had “expressed their belief the general US population was ‘weak’ and lacked resilience and would be unable to ‘do what is necessary’ to prevent the terrorists from succeeding in their goals.” Before water boarding, KSM simply said, “Soon you will know.”
CNS News: CIA Confirms That Enhanced Interrogations Foiled L.A. ...As a result of those techniques, it was learned that KSM (mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks) revealed his plot of the Second Wave. That involved the Garuba Cell, containing a 17-member Jemaah Islamiyah cell tasked with crashing a hijacked airliner into a building in Los Angeles. If, or when, this would’ve happened, how many hundreds or thousands of Americans would have died in this attack? Per a CBS/New York Times poll [4/29/09], 62% of Americans opposed the idea of conducting hearings of the Bush Administration.
Fortunately, the information was obtained, the Second Wave never happened, and Americans’ lives were saved all because of water boarding three terrorists. None of the terrorists were injured, and all three are still walking around unhurt. Even though water boarding was exceedingly rare in interrogations of al-Qaeda terrorists, certain members of our armed services go through Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape training (SERE) per their own intentions.
One who has watched certain sci-fi epics realizes that there are a number of other methods that can be used to obtain desired information without harm. Certain drugs are used today with the desired result. A mind wipe, or alternative reality could also be used in the near future. These techniques are coming, but it would be difficult to define them as torture.
One probably figures his family’s life is worth someone being water boarded to get the necessary information to continue their life. It would be difficult to answer them in their afterlife as to why you didn’t believe water boarding was worth saving their life.

Screaming Activists Terrorize Boston Church During Ex-'Gay' Meeting
Screaming Activists Terrorize Boston Church During Ex-’Gay’ Meeting
http://www.massresistance.org/docs/gen/09b/ParkStreetChurch_0428/index2.html
From Mass Resistance ( www.massresistance.org )
Prominent homosexual activists lead screaming demonstration, terrorize Boston church sponsoring ex-gay religious event.
Police make no arrests. “Jesus was gay” pamphlets also handed out.
May 1, 2009
Tuesday afternoon, April 28, several major homosexual activist figures, including a prominent state employee, led a screaming demonstration to terrorize a downtown Boston church while it was holding a peaceful religious training event inside. Using a bullhorn, they illegally trampled through an adjoining Revolutionary War-era cemetery in order to be directly outside the church’s windows. Despite numerous apparent violations of the law, the Boston Police talked with them but refused to make any arrests.
The group of about 30 hardcore homosexual activists started their demonstration across the street from the church, in the Boston Common, around noon. After a few haranguing speeches, they marched (with a high-powered bullhorn) to the sidewalk in front of the church and began screaming and chanting.

"Does God Love Michael's Two Daddies?" A new way to combat leftwing extremist!
Are you tired of the homosexal agenda that radical leftists are promoting across the classrooms of Elementary Schools in America? Remember Heather’s Two Mommies? It was ridiculous that the militant homosexual lobby wanted to force re-education of homosexual indoctrination down the throats of small children not yet old enough to understand what it was all about. Now you can successfully combat these left wing extremists on thier own turf!
Apologetics Press has a book called “Does God Love Micheael’s Two Daddies?” and it comes highly recommended to any parent battling the forces of evil in their school disctrict. Here is more info:
Does God Love Michael’s Two Daddies?
Author: Sheila K. Butt
Price: $7.95
For the last 15 years, the homosexual community has been publishing children’s books promoting homosexuality, starting with the book Heather Has Two Mommies. Other books such as Daddy’s Roommate and My Two Uncles have followed suit. To our knowledge, no comparable children’s book designed to combat the promotion of homosexuality is available on the market—until now. Does God Love Michael’s Two Daddies? is a professionally designed and illustrated book that promotes God’s love for all individuals, while at the same time showing, in a loving way, that homosexuality is wrong. This book has tremendous potential to positively influence the lives of thousands of children growing up in tumultuous and confusing times.
