Obama Celebrates Diwali

Reader Comments
Back to blog

Even our own president has chosen to promote Islam and even celebrate Diwali, a four-day festival, falling in October-November, celebrated by displaying lights and worshiping Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity. This holiday promotes gambling and some believers think that if a person doesn’t gamble during the holiday they will be reincarnated as a donkey. This is all part of the “one-world faith”, the movement to treat all religions as being equal. devil worshipping, paganism, christianity all considered the same. Make no mistake-There is only one God!
Deuteronomy 4:35 You were shown these things so that you might know that the LORD is God; besides him there is no other.
Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. --This means believe in the Lord, repent of your sins, read the Bible and follow the Lord and not follow the world.

I've just read several religion stories on this site, and the comments at the end of them. It's clear that there are several people on here who just go on, like broken records, about whatever issue is their particular hobby-horse, no matter what the topic of the story is. That's sad.
I think it's wonderful that Obama acknowledged Diwali, a holiday celebrated by a billion people around the world. The mere acknowledgement of it is not an unconstitutional promotion of religion. It is merely a way to say to those who celebrate this festival that we recognize the common bond of humanity that we share with you. Namaste. We see, in you, a reflection of our own humanity.
And we could always use more celebrations in this world.

More attacks on Constitutional freedom by Alf, with hints i should be a prostitute on a corner? He's made himself a place on one of those corners where a fellow stands with a sign that says "Repent, the End is Near," and sticks out his beggar bowl for a handout. Comment sites are maintained to spread information. Here. the topic is "What do people think about Obama celebrating an India religious rite?" But Alf is far off topic, asking why I get up in the morning. As an addict of Scripture literature, he can't understand the process of evolution. But it's on record he says I'm "a product of reverse evolution." Far from asking him to stop commenting, let him make more wrong guesses and snicker to himself as thinks he "scored another one against atheists." They include atheists Edison, inventor of many uses of electricity; Burbank who improved quality & amount of crops, Morse who invented the telegraph and James Smithson who gave us the Smithsonian Institution for the advance of knowledge.

Alfxx, with his head crammed between pages of his precious Holy Book, suggests he's been glued to Rush broadcasts a long, long time, Rush makes millions with his attacks on homosexuals. Fat himself, Rush foolishly says Lesbians are fat Let Alfxx websearch famous homosexuals. Some of the most beautiful women on TV and movies are--guess what? Lesbians. Rush, divorced, attacks marriages of other people he can never know. Alf shows he's a Teacher's Pet of Limbaugh, I've been insulted for defending Constitutional rights, by far better linguists than Alf. Is xx a place under a pew, where Alf has never heard of the Constitution?
