Knights of Columbus & "under God" in Pledge....
In the l950's era of Catholic Sen. McCarthy, when socialists were blacklisted out of the State Dept. & all sectors of the communications media, the Knights of Columbus successfully lobbied Congress to add "under God" to the Pledge. The motto "In God We Trust" was put on our money before that. Why did Christians do that? They did it to FORCE children to HEAR, SAY & READ the word "God" most of their lives. They were expected to believe there are no atheists & that everybody bows heads and prays. It was done to make children believe nonexistent god exists, so they'd give money as tithes to churches--as kids and when they go to work. "Catcher in the Rye" was banned because schoolboy Holden says he "must be an atheist." Believers didn't want kids to even SEE the word "atheist.' As more people graduate from college, they realize they were lied to about religion. That's why so many religious families send their kids to church schools. They don't want the kids to lose faith. But gradually, the population of the USA is becoming more secular. Eventually, successful lawsuits will remove religious contamination from the Pledge and money. The nation will once again be "indivisible."
Obama (homosexuality Article)
OK U.S.A.our pledge is one nation under god right?? ok so Obama being our president its sinfull. God says in the bible that...
Romans 6:1-2 Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of his wonderful grace? 2 Of course not! Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it?
Romans 1:24 So God abandoned them to do whatever shameful things their hearts desired. As a result, they did vile and degrading things with each other’s bodies. 25 They traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen. 26 That is why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. 27 And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved.
28 Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be done. 29 Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and gossip. 30 They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud, and boastful. They invent new ways of sinning, and they disobey their parents. 31 They refuse to understand, break their promises, are heartless, and have no mercy. 32 They know God’s justice requires that those who do these things deserve to die, yet they do them anyway. Worse yet, they encourage others to do them, too.
Matt 19:4 “Haven’t you read the Scriptures?” Jesus replied. “They record that from the beginning ‘God made them male and female.’* 5 And he said, ‘This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.’* 6 Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together.”
AND ABORTION IS A WHOLE NOTHER SUBJECT!! its murder!!
To homosexuals
I will simply write out a few scriptures for those supporters of HOMOSEXUALITY who feel "We (believing Christians) now live under the new Covenant...thankfully--so the passages in Leviticus are not applicable for the Age of Grace--we're still sinners--just saved from our sins by Jesus' vicarious death on the cross."
I ask you to prayerfully look at

DONT JOIN THE GAY MOVEMENT TO WIN THE ARGUEMENT ON GAY RIGHTS. FOLLOW THE SCRIPTURES, PLEASE
GOD'S POWER IS STILL WORKING ON EARTH TO SET GAYS FREE FROM THE POWER OF HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE
HUMAN RIGHTS CANNOT DELIVER FROM SIN. ONLY JESUS CAN, AND HE LOVES YOU.

You missed my whole point.... !!!
The Bible says there are a lot of things we are not to do....so we dont do them,'
If a person has lusts that are wrong..Biblically.... then if they do not act on them they are not being a sinner.....
If a person is gay and refuses to act out is he/she a sinner?
I know what scripture says about the act.. not the actor....
The World didnt END
Every one spoke, prayed and the world did not end!!!
All those here who complain here must not be sinners?
The Word of God as quoted by Jesus used a great example.. He said to sinners.. Let he who is WITH OUT SIN cast the first stone
Believing Christians are supposed to be the example and lead and point others to Christ Jesus!
I see little of this here,,,,
The commandment is to go out to all the world and preach the Gospel so that others can be saved..... and its to be done in LOVE!
Any Comments?
We don't live under the Old Testament rules
We (Christian's) don't live under the Law of Moses. Jesus fulfilled the law and died on the cross of Calvary for all sins for all people for all times--however the New Testament makes it very clear that the free gift of salvation is available to anyone who would put their faith and trust in Jesus and believe he is who he says he is.
We (believing Christians) now live under the new Covenant...thankfully--so the passages in Leviticus are not applicable for the Age of Grace--we're still sinners--just saved from our sins by Jesus' vicarious death on the cross.
This is only for people who want a personal relationship with Jesus. We are exhorted to lead Godly lives and to avoid sin.
Gene Robinson divorced his wife and committed adultery with another man with whom he continues to live in open adultery. Not very good credentials for being a Bishop.
And here we go . . .
Let the religion of convenience practitioners begin to sling their mud - happens every time you mention the word "gay" and some bible-thumping "christian" gets wind of it.
So how many of you "christians" who responded to this story have worn clothes of two different cloths? How many have resisted selling your daughters into slavery? How many little gardens had differing crops planted side by side? And how many of you, back in your glorious teen age and early twenties, jumped into bed and had pre-marital sex?
Undoubtedly 99% of you - and, as a result, each of you has violated some passage in Leviticus.
So, hypocrites, please foolow the 11th commandment - Keepeth thy mouth shuteth for thou know-est NOT of what ye speaketh.
The bible is the single greatest, and most edited work of fiction EVER written -
Don't believe that? Where are the Gnostic Gospels? Where is the Gospel According to Judas? And wher is the Gospel written by - GASP - the woman Mary Magdaline?
All removed by the Church - in order to control the masses of people who fall for this rubbish - yes, I think the words in the bible are rubbish.
The bible was written as a tool of ancient government to control people - and what a tool it has been!
In any event - If Churches and religion want a seat at the table, then end the tax exempt status for ALL religions and let's end the deficit!
re we in bizarro-world?
a 'bishop' who is 'horrified' that prayers by clergy at inaugurations have been 'strongly Christian?'...and who promises that HIS prayers won't have any of that nasty 'scripture' in them...what planet is this? the whole thing reminds me of the punchline to an old joke:
"i'm not the guy who called the trumpet player a #####, and i'm not sitting next to the guy who called the trumpet player a ####; what i want to know is, WHO called this #### a trumpet player?"
the god of all our understandings??? would that be the god of AA, or the god of barney the dinosaur?
Gene Robinson
Thank God that our family wised up after the Episcopal Church started going against the Scriptures and we left the Episcopal church and started attending a Bible-believing non-denominational. It's not about the liturgy, it's not about politics on the altar, it's not about the canned prayers for every social issue that's currently sweeping the nation, it's about the Word of God. Gay people do not belong leading a Christian church. It's Biblical and it's a sin that's lived without repentance. It's like slapping God in the face. He loves everyone even though we all sin and fall short of God's Glory, but for leaders who are supposed to be living my example this is wrong, just as it's wrong to be living with someone you are not married to.
Dr. King and the "God I pray to"
Any true Christian knows that God loves every soul. AND because of that love needs His children to live rightly in His guidelines; which includes NO sexual perversity (i.e., a man lying with another man...an abomination to God) I find it extremely disrespectful to the memory of Dr. King (a true Christian!) to allow such an act to happen where he gave the I Dream speech. I pray that Obama will make better decisions while he is in office for the sake of our country.
