when there is much poll worshipping, the people in charge of the polls have their own agenda and we’re now all right wing extremists because of believing in God and country, how do you fight against this takeover by those who would kill Christianity?

This has been happening for a long time and one only hopes that the enemies of Christianity have overplayed their hands because they are moving much faster with their assaults on God than ever before in our history.

First my senators take on Homeland Insecurity over the rightwing extremist bit and now my representative hits the BoyPresident over his request to hide the symbol of our Lord’s name. I could not be more proud.

But one thing does bother me. I don’t understand why Notre Dame would invite Obama to speak or Georgetown would allow him the use of one of their buildings. Given his own words against classical Christianity and its core doctrines, I am ashamed to see both institutions pandering to him. One wonders if Benedict XVI will discipline either or both universities. If he does not, my respect for the Roman See will fall, perhaps even totally disappear.

This country’s institutions and ethos are derived directly, and inexorably, from a variety of sources, essentially Christian (Protestant much moreso than Catholic as I understand it), with some important Deist contributions (like thoses incorporated by Thomas Jefferson and George Washington in various writings).

I fail to understand why those connections are constantly attacked, except for the purposes of undermining and corrupting the principled American will. They are absolute facts and should be universally acknowledged as such, not subject to vain attempts at erasure.

It’s like saying we are in the year 2009, while refusing to acknowledge that attendant with an otherwise arbitrary number must come the initials words, which have meaning:

2009 A.D., or AD 2009, or
2009 anno Domini (in the year of our Lord 2009
It’s bad enough that B.C. (before Christ), has been replaced in certain circles by B.C.E (before common era)

2009 loses its meaning. It might as well be the year 1430. That would be 1430 AH (anno Hegirae (in the year of the Hijra), the current Muslim year), or 5769 (if you’re Jewish.

Imagine trying to convince everyone in America to embrace another calendar system that doesn’t directly reference the birth of Jesus Christ. The Milennium celebration was after all, whether one likes it or not, the celebration of 2000 years of Christianity

All this is patently offensive, disrepectful, and insidious. It’s deliberately designed to detach Americans from understanding the basis of justice and inalienable rights in their own history.

I find it particularly telltale that the Obama Administration engages, perpetuates and fosters this behavior by covering religious symbols (in Georgetown University of all places!) wherever it goes. Why bother going to a religious setting if you can’t acknowledge the religion that helped create it?

Dude, if you don’t like to be associated with religion, don’t stand in front of their symbols when making a speech, and don’t quote Scripture.

Georgetown ought to be ashamed of itself for complying with the request to cover anything, especially the IHS–”the Name which is above every other name.” Georgetown, one would hope, still believes that Jesus Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords. There are plenty of places where Obama could have given the speech if Georgetown had refused to cover up and the WH considered that a non-negotiable. It’s as though they’re trying to one-up Notre Dame.

At Paul’s time, “Jesus Christ is Lord!” was a provocative political statement. It appears we may be heading back in that direction.

We are, after all, a nation founded on the principle that we are one nation, under God

The nation was found on the principle of “We the People”. It gets top billing , in big letters, so it kinda hard to miss.

Where God is moved out , the Devil moves in.

Could you read this into the Congressional Record? While CSPAN is on so some of the voters of this country could become more well informed?

“While the President continues to quote the scripture and reference his faith, it seems the White House is subtly attempting to remove God from our every day lives.”

Don’t forget: Satan had a very good knowledge of scripture and quoted it when he was tempting Jesus in the wilderness. Just sayin’…

I have to say this is pretty ridiculous. I’m not a religious guy, but I did go to a Jesuit high school. I’ve since gone back to the school to give a speech to the kids about what they should do to prepare themselves for entering the world outside of high school. I talked in front of a huge cross. Do I believe in it? Not really important. It’s part of the school, and if I’m at the school, it’s out of respect that I honor their traditions. Centuries old traditions. Yes, Obama is the president, so a question of “Who are you to change this?” is not really relevant, but it seems like another one of those thing Obama is choosing to do that seems to have no positive aspect, but can be potentially offensive. Similar to how Obama gave the English the bust of Winston Churchill given after 9/11 back to them.

Honestly guys, Obama’s only ability to remove God from your life, is an ability you grant him. I ignore pretty much all of what Obama tells me to do already. I assume you guys probably do as well. It’s really not that hard.
