God’s teachings advocate self-defense, and the Israelites defended themselves many, many times. Besides, my government has actively declared war on my faith. If I have to defend it with the ‘sword’, I will. No, that doesn’t mean I’m going to attack Bill Maher for the things he says (as tempting as it is). I am talking about the violation of my God-given right to my religion, outlined by the Founders.
The gov’t has decloaked and it’s plain to see they are involved in an organized criminal operation on steroids. What should the Christian do when the gov’t classifies Christianity as a hate crime and outlaws it? If you think they’d never do such a thing, read up on the NDAA and ask yourself if there is anything they’re not capable of.
