The Democratic Party's Godless Platform
Catholic Online ^ | 9/5/2012 | Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq.

Posted on 09/05/2012 9:09:21 AM PDT by Unam Sanctam

All reference to God has been removed from the 2012 Democratic platform. This a curiosity indeed: how the Democratic party claims a warrant to lead a "nation under God," and a nation whose foundational document refers to the "Laws of Nature and Nature's God," when the natural law and the name of God have apparently become so abhorrent to it.

...

According to The Blaze, the 2004 platform for the Democratic party contained seven references to God, the 2008 platform retained one mention, and the 2012 platform apparently intends to banish God altogether.

Did they change it to Allah, perhaps?

To communists, the government is God.

No man, whether good or evil, can reign in power unless God ordains it. This does not necessarily make a ruler a willing servant of God, for he may in fact be the servant of Satan (as was Pharaoh in Moses’ time); yet God in His omnipotent power and sovereign prophetic plan for mankind, chooses who rules in the kingdom of men. Proverb 21:1, “The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.” Nothing happens in this world without God’s approval (as hard as that may be for some people to grasp). God has given to man a freewill and therefore, must let humanity run its course. God uses the nations to judge the nations.

Ecclesiastes 8:9, “All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.” Leaders will be held far more accountable by God, who will be judged for the lives they affect. President Barack H. Obama wickedly signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law on December 31, 2011 which now permits U.S. troops to have sex with animals. The new law also gives Homeland Security the power to indefinitely detain U.S. citizens. This is treason!!!

you can read the rest here..

For a party that believes in murdering unborn infants and calling it “choice”, this should not be a big surprise.

They have gone insane - collectively.

I caught snippets of the speeches last night on the radio. Hysterical, shrieking, freakshow...

And boy, do those Dems love guys named “Castro”....

The underlying goal of both communism and socialism is to replace God with the state. It’s no longer “give to the poor”, but “give to the government”. Liberal churches today try to “modernize” God to fit more in line with conformist idealism and worldly views. Political correctness itself is the replacement of right and wrong with whatever does or does not appeal to the social collective consciousness, as though there is no difference. Who controls that collective consciousness, however? The mass media typically. And who controls that?

” They have gone insane - collectively.”

Obama finished off the DNC. They are now hopelessly leftist.
Same with the MSM. Obama was their chance to give up any pretense of fairness. I think Obama will be beaten soundly.

“...Obama finished off the DNC. They are now hopelessly leftist...”

I believe they’ve been hopelessly left since the 60s, when the commies were fully infiltrated into the party structure; most of the folks in this country that were voting D have been voting with no idea whatsoever of what that party has become.

When the Communist Party of the USA decides to back a Democrat candidate...when the Socialist Worker’s Party of the USA backs the Democrat candidate...when the Revolutionary Worker’s Party backs the Democrat candidate...well, let’s just say has to wonder Whiskey Tango Foxtrot..

But hey...it’s just coincidence, after all...

No complaints by any of them after O was elected either.
Usually they bitch, but the commie clubs got everything they wanted this time.

The Communists said they would destroy us from within and they have taken over the dimocraps. Their voters are so stupid they can't even see it. Dim voters are incapable of critical thinking. After all, they are government undereducated. And they belong to the government!

Maybe it was God that wanted to remove any association with the Democrats. Who could blame Him?

Since no other name is lifted up, just the audience, USG and DNC, I can see the future darkly: man made.

Perhaps it’s a blessing, _He_ never said His name was God. He is our Elohim but that’s not His name; I am a man, but that is not my name.

Come now and know Him well enough to call Him by His name...
His has many, since He is so many things to us! for us! with us! El Shaddai... YHWH Rapha...

Everywhere the western Bible translated into English, His name was switched from YHWH to LORD. He is our LORD but that is not His name.

“Give thanks to YHWH, call on his name”... Psalms 105:1a

Allah is probably planned for the next convention.

“Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder.” Arnold J. Toynbee

“Who could blame Him?”

Because the Democrats have proven themselves to be the party of: cultural depravity, infanticide, assisted suicide/”euthaniasia”, perversity as “diversity”, unregulated “immigration”, fiscal insolvency, literal kow towing to our enemies/self-inflicted military weakness, social, political & economic form over substance, stagnant unemployment/hostility to industry, contempt for the citizenry and Constitution (and on and on and on).

Of course you know this Sapper26—we all do. I’m just re-stating it.
While we are heartless or hardhearted, Democrats see themselves as “compassionate,” a synonym—at least as far as the “Religion of Peace” is concerned—for suicidal.

The Dem slogan since 2008 has always been: ‘Barack Akhbar!!’

Bump for personal project.

I intend to share this info with everyone at my church, stressing that it's merely a news item. No candidates' names will be mentioned (in fact, the word "vote" won't be mentioned at all)
