Video: Highland Park liberals pray for more taxpayer dollars

¹⁴ if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. -2 Chronicles 7

Unfortunately for the liberals that infest the political ruling class in Highland Park, they did not humble themselves nor did they turn from their wicked ways, but instead prayed to a golden calf for more taxpayer money and took pot shots at Gov Snyder for trying to right the ship. The video report:

Exit question: how many of these community organizer types secretly prayed to Obama as their god? From a prior post: Video: Community organizers PRAY to Obama (no joke!)

Predictable: Obama Still Banning Prayers

Recent news: Poll: More Than 9 in 10 Americans Believe in God

The real shame is that if these people truly believed in God, they would vote that way, and there would only be 1 Democrat for every 9 Republicans. So a good chunk of these people have crafted themselves a golden calf instead. And that golden calf is trying to shade the true light of the world. Via memeorandum: Congressman: Obama Admin Still Banning Prayers

A Texas lawmaker is calling for a Congressional investigation of the Houston National Cemetery after he went undercover and determined that cemetery officials are still preventing Christian prayers at the funerals of military veterans.

If you want more background, I wrote a post on this very topic: Persecution: VA Bans Mention of 'God,' 'Jesus Christ' at Funerals for Vets

“The Obama administration continues to try to prevent the word ‘God’ from being used at the funerals of our heroes,” said. Rep. John Culberson (R-TX). “It’s unacceptable and I’m going to put a stop to it as fast as humanly possible.”

Culberson told Fox News Radio he attended a burial service at the cemetery under cover on July 8 where he said volunteer members of the honor guard from the Veterans of Foreign Wars were prohibited from using any references to God.

“The Obama administration had told the nation and me they were not interfering with the prayer said over the graves of veterans,” he said. “And I went undercover to personally verify that claim.”

...The cemetery is already the focus of a lawsuit filed on behalf of the VFW, an American Legion post and Houston’s National Memorial Ladies. They claim the V.A. banned members of the organizations from using the words “God” or “Jesus” at burial services. They also allege they were banned from reciting prayers or using religious language during services unless families approved the text in advance.

...“It makes my skin crawl that liberals are attempting to drive prayer out of a funeral ceremony for our heroes,” Culberson said. “We’re going to fix this so that no Obama liberal bureaucrat will interfere with the funeral of a hero.”

By his actions, Obama is a false prophet:

¹⁵"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. ¹⁶By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? ¹⁷Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. ¹⁸A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. ¹⁹Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. ²⁰Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. - Matthew 7 (NIV)

The same guy that is purging God from America 'by design', leaves "By their Creator" Out of the Declaration of Independence, that Snubs ‘In God We Trust’ as the US Motto, that made sure to thank other people in his Thanksgiving proclamation in 2009, but not Almighty God, and dropped "Year of Our Lord" from another proclamation, the same one that by executive order disallowed faith-based organizations to conduct worship services while providing social programs funded with federal money, and the same guy that defended infanticide (not abortion but the murder of crying born babies left to die in soiled linen closets) as an Illinois Senator not once but 4 times claims once again to commune with God: Obama: ‘I Do A Lot Of Praying’

And he recently invoked the Bible to push for amnesty for illegal aliens:

"Immigration reform is a moral imperative, and so it's worth seeking greater understanding from our faith. As it is written in the Book of Deuteronomy [10:19], 'Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.' To me, that verse is a call to show empathy to our brothers and our sisters; to try and recognize ourselves in one another."And that has what to do with rewarding those that broke our laws? Since he mentioned empathy, he seems to have less than zero for unborn children, or even those that were born and left to die alone in soiled linen closets in Chicago. Since Obama used the Bible to push his radical agenda, let's not forget this: Flashback Video: Obama mocks the Bible in 2006

Video: Bill O'Reilly Shreds Media for Calling Norway Terrorist ‘Christian’

And the same media the downplayed the Fort Hood shooter's Muslim roots deserve to get shredded for linking the Norway shooting with Christianity - a religion where "though shall not murder" is one of the 10 commandments. Just a quick recap, Nidal Hassan, who yelled Allah Akbar as he murdered 13 servicemen at Fort Hood - ironically in a no gun zone - was taped murdering 13 people, plus a 14th victim - an unborn child. Flashback Video: Obama Warns Against ‘Jumping to Conclusions’ One Day After Ft. Hood Shootings

Fast forward to just a few days ago and the media has "Christian" and "conservative" all over the place in any story regarding the Norway shooter. Via memeorandum: O'Reilly Shreds Media for Calling Norway Terrorist ‘Christian’

Transcript:

"Impact" segment tonight: mass murder in Norway. A vicious killer, Anders Breivik, has murdered at least 76 people in the Scandinavian nation of Norway. Breivik is a brutal fanatic who apparently objects to the presence of Muslims in Europe.

Last Friday he bombed buildings in Oslo and then took an automatic weapon to an island a few miles away gunning down 68 people. Norwegian authorities couldn't get to the island because they didn't have a helicopter, if you can believe it.

Now, on Sunday, the "New York Times" headlined "As Horrors Emerged, Norway Charges Christian extremist". A number of other news organizations like the "LA Times" and Reuters also played up the Christian angle. But Breivik is not a Christian. That's impossible. No one believing in Jesus commits mass murder. The man might have called himself a Christian on the net, but he is certainly not of that faith.

Also Breivik is not attached to any church, and in fact has criticized the Protestant belief system in general. The Christian angle came from a Norwegian policeman not from any fact finding. Once again, we can find no evidence, none, that this killer practiced Christianity in any way.

So why is the angle being played up? Two reasons: First, the liberal media wants to make an equivalency between the actions of Breivik and the Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh and al Qaeda. The left wants you to believe that fundamentalists Christians are a threat just like crazy jihadists are.

In fact, in the "New York Times" today an analysis piece says that some believe we have overreacted to the Muslim threat in the world. Of course, that's absurd. Jihadists have killed tens of thousands of people all over the world. The Taliban, Iran and elements in Pakistan use governmental power to support terrorism by Muslims. But the left-wing press wants to compare nuts like Breivik and McVeigh to state-sponsored terrorism and worldwide jihad.

Again, dishonest and insane.

The second reason the liberal media is pushing the Christian angle is they don't like Christians very much because we are too judgmental. Many Christians oppose abortion. Gay marriage and legalized narcotics, secular left causes. The media understands the opposition is often based on religion. So they want to diminish Christianity and highlighting so-called Christian-based terror is a way to do that.

Darned right! And well said. I don't agree with O'Reilly on most topics, but he's spot on on this one.

Video of Fox News Anchor: Mitt Romney "Obviously Not A Christian"

I'll save for now a fact that will tick off my Mormon readers and friends - Mormonism is not just some Christian denomination but is rather a non-Christian cult (sorry friends and readers! But it's true) That being said, this doesn't belong in a news story at all:

I'm more concerned about Romney being a global warming hoax kool-aid drinker than him being a Mormon.

Charles Rangel: What would Jesus do on the debt talks? God: Owe no one anything (Romans 13:8)

Interesting how pro-abort Democrats are so quick to invoke God when they're in a pinch. From CNN, after racking up an absurd $14.5 trillion in debt, Rangel comes out with this: Rangel: What would Jesus do on the debt talks?

Veteran Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel made an impassioned plea to religious leaders Friday, calling on them to lobby members of Congress and the Obama administration to remember the "lesser of my brothers and sisters" during this weekend's debt negotiations.

Interesting how pro-separation of church and state Democrats are so quick to go to religious leaders when they're in a pinch.

"What would Jesus do this weekend? Or Moses. Or Allah. Or anyone else," the New York congressman said at a press conference on Capitol Hill. "I don't want this book (debt negotiations) closed without the clergy having an opportunity to forcefully express themselves as well as I know they can do."

Well, if they were genuine clergy rather than leftists posing as religious leaders, they would invoke common-sense scriptures that are clearly anti-debt, like these:

8 Owe no one anything, except to love each other... - Romans 13:8

21 The wicked borrows but does not pay back, but the righteous is generous and gives; 

In addition, it is clear in the Bible that when you owe someone, you are considered a slave to the debt owner. In that regard, going into debt is warned against. But let's get back to Rangel who may want to read one of the commands from Jesus Himself: "give to Caesar what is Caesar's, give to God what is God's." You see, Charles Rangel is a bona fide tax cheat and believes God wants him in office still: Corruptocrat Charles Rangel (D-NY): GOD told me not to retire. Once again, here's to you Mr. tax-cheating lying sac of crap Harlem Congressman:

Persecution: VA Bans Mention of 'God,' 'Jesus Christ' at Funerals for Vets

I guess it's pointless to point out that the Declaration of Independence is based on unalienable rights given us by The Creator, that the US Constitution was sign in "the Year of Our Lord," that the very Founding Fathers that wrote the 1st amendment used federal money to build churches and print Bibles for public schools (I dare say they knew better what they meant than liberals do today), that church services were held in all federal building on Sundays, etc. These atheists are God-hating wackos and this kind of moonbatery goes directly against the founding of this country. As it is: Poll: More Than 9 in 10 Americans Believe in God. But don't tell that to the minority liberal ruling class that wants to ban God. Speaking of: Veterans Affairs Bans Mention of God at Funerals for Vets

The VFW District 4, American Legion Post 586, National Memorial Ladies Join Lawsuit Against VA and Director of Houston National Cemetery for Religious Hostility

HOUSTON, June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, Liberty Institute, on behalf of the Veterans of Foreign Wars District 4, The American Legion Post 586, and the National Memorial Ladies, returned to federal court with new allegations of religious hostility and unlawful censorship by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and its director of the Houston National Cemetery. Last month, Liberty Institute successfully represented Houston pastor Scott Rainey in the same federal court after Houston VA officials tried to prevent him from praying in Jesus' name at a Memorial Day ceremony.

"The hostile and discriminatory actions by the Veterans Affairs officials in Houston are outrageous, unconstitutional and must stop," said Jeff Mateer, Esq., general counsel of Liberty Institute. "Government officials who engage in religious discrimination against citizens are breaking the law. Sadly, this seems to be a pattern of behavior at the Houston VA National Cemetery."

Amongst the complaints are these:

• VA Forbids Mention of God at Funerals for Veterans and Requires Families to Submit Prayer for Approval to the Government
• Government officials told burial teams that prayer and religious speech could no longer be included in the burial ritual unless the family submits a specific prayer or message in writing to Director Ocasio for her approval.
• VA instructs the VFW and a Private Funeral Home that they may not present the option of prayer to families.
• VA Tells Volunteers to Remove "God Bless" from Condolence Cards to Grieving Families.
• VA Closes Cemetery Chapel; Uses it for Storage: The chapel where families used to gather, pray and reflect has been closed and is now called a "meeting facility" and used for storage. The chapel cross and Bible have been removed and the bells that once used to chime are no longer used.

Your taxpayer dollars, hard at work sticking a finger in The Creator's eye. The real shame is that if the general population truly believed in God as per the above poll that I mentioned, they would vote that way, and there would only be 1 Democrat for every 9conservatives. So a good chunk of these people have crafted themselves a golden calf instead, and we are reaping the bad seeds sown in places like public ed. A history lesson is needed here:

Missouri conservative Rep. Todd Akin is absolutely correct and needs not apologize for speaking the truth on this matter: MO Conservative Todd Akin Refuses to Apologize For Saying, ‘At the Heart of Liberalism…Is a Hatred For God’ 

Well, I think NBC has a long record of being very liberal and at the heart of liberalism really is a hatred for God and a belief that government should replace God.

Darned right!
