"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Good article my FRiend, and I can't help but ponder if (in an alternate universe) back when Republicans took over the House in '94, if the son of Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich had released a documentary revealing the lies and hypocrisy of the left, exposing the America-hating un-intelligentsia of (for example) New York and L.A. society, if there would be such fawning reviews of such a work as we're seeing with the daughter of 'Madam Speaker'?
Pelosi's spawn also proved what a bunch of cowards the Left is. Going after Christians is easy. They're not a threat. You can be as smug and condescending as you want to Christians and at no cost to yourself. In fact Pelosi's spawn will be celebrated at "courageous" & given accolades.
Islam on the other hand.........
I doubt Pelosi's spawn has the courage to do a similar "documentary" on Islam.
Gee I wonder if this woman is going to do a piece like this on Islam?
But those who reject God are angry with God and hate Him; they just can't get their hands on Him so they go after those who love Him and have a personal relationship with Him.
And yes, those who reject God hate Him, but don't forget the horrendous fear these people have deep within their souls- the fear of knowing, even if they don't consciously recognize it, that there is a God Who is a holy God and Who does not tolerate sin and rebellion and before Whom they will stand one day and be held accountable for their sin. A holy God Who offered a way of escape from eternal punishment by sacrificing Himself - a God Whose sacrifice they reject, a God Who they have spit on and ruthlessly worked to erase from the face of the earth. This is the God they innately know they will have to deal with someday.
Terror plays a huge part in what these people do.
Interesting timing. Is the daughter an alter ego of the mother ? Is she a mouthpiece for her mother's agenda ?
As Mama Pelosi launches her career as a national leader, this report suggests someone places a high priority on taking down religion in the public square.
Is this an harbinger of things to come ?
BINGO!
Correction= Alexandra not Alexis
I will bet there is plenty of praying going on when liberals take their last breaths.
Sounds like a 6th century death cult
that have their sites set on destroying us.
The Devil knows his time is short....and he is using clueless liberals to attack the Church and Faith....
America is reaping what she has sown.
Its time for all of us to get right with the Father....for that is the only solution to the appostacy of America.
While there are a few activist Atheists out there (usually college students new to the idea), most of us just prefer to be left alone to pursue our own lives. I don't hate anybody in general, I don't sit around all day fuming about believer-types. All you all spend a lot more time thinking about me than I do about you.

So many believers tell me that I'm afraid that God exists that I've started to wonder if they aren't just projecting their fear that there is no God onto me.
And that is the gist of it all.
The halcyon days of self-delusion are over and the bill has come due. I firmly believe that this nation is now under judgment: the killing of 45 million human beings will not go unpunished; the acceptance and celebration of behaviors which God declares is abominable will not go unpunished; the years of tolerance of those who have worked tirelessly to force atheism on everyone in this nation, including Christians, will not go unpunished; the systematic, decades-in-the-making twisting of good into evil and evil into good will not go unpunished- all of our rebellion against God as a nation has not gone unnoticed and will not be ignored.
Proverbs 14:34-34:
Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a reproach to any people.
Nothing in Scripture exempts America from coming under judgment.
I don't want to say we're at the point of no return, but it would take a mass, nation-wide repentence and massive, immediate change in the direction we are well into to convince God to have mercy on this country. And, to be honest, I don't see that happening.
It is no coincidence Islamic pagans hate Israel, Jews, Christians and Western Civilization. The entire basis of Western Civilization is Mosaic Law, something both the Neo-Pagan Left and the pagan Islamic thugs cannot abide and wish to destroy.
The very idea that human beings have individual rights not subject to the whims of an earthly monarch, but subject to the laws of Yahweh, is directly from Moses.
Exactly. There's a terrible double standard in the media. I can't believe they don't see it; they just don't care to fix it.
Actually, the only time I think about atheists, aside from praying for people in general to find salvation, is when an atheist or an organizaton of atheists bursts onto the scene with some demand that will cost me my some or all of my religous freedom.
I have yet to see any group of Christians demanding that everyone be forced to attend church; however my children can be expelled from school for praying. That's the sort of thing that causes Christians to think about atheists.

Usually the simplist explanation for something is the correct one. What, exactly, would motivate someone to spend time and money to follow a group of people around, film them, use cutting-edge and daring camera techninques to make them look as much like goobers as possible, interject little commetaries during the film about what the subjects in the film believe- all for the purpose of discrediting them?
Why, for example, has no one infiltrated a militant abortion group, or a militant Muslim group, or a militant homosexual group that brainstorms and seeks methods to legalize adult-child sex? Why is it always Christians who have to be ridiculed and discredited? Hmmmmm?
Because it is the Christians and the One they represent who are the threat. And the people who feel compelled to shut us up do so based on their own base, natural emotions: hatred, contempt, and yes, fear
Excellent points you make!
Not having seen the movie in question, I can't attest as to whether it was a hit piece or not. At first blush it sounds more like a "stranger in a strange land" film than anything else.

Not sure about the abortion group one, but I know that there have been movies made about the other two groups. Can't think of the names off the top of my head, but if you want to find them you can.
What the heck? Just watch Dateline, or 60 Minutes, they have stories about pedophiles and crazy Muslims at least once a year.

I think that it's a lot more complex than that. Evangelicals are a fairly powerful voting bloc that's all but absent from the major cities in the mid-west and the costal megapolisis. To us up in these parts, some of the things that Evangelicals do and say look and sound mighty strange. Jerry Falwell's moronic comments about 9/11 or Pat Robertson's... being crazy old Pat Robertson, for example.
Now I haven't seen the film, so I might very well be wrong, but I imagine that Alex Pelosi is coming at the subject of Evangelicals as the ultimate outsider. I at least understand and share some of your conservative values, she does not or at least does not agree with them. From that outsider's perspective you're going to look unusual and probably a little scary. The fact that her point of contact for part of the film was Ted Haggard didn't help things either, and probably justified (in her mind) some of the biases that she brought to the documentary.
