But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven. (Matthew 10:33)
Are you a believer? I’m not asking if you’re a Democrat, a Republican or an independent. I’m asking if you believe in God. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The God of the living, not the dead. The great “I Am.” Ads by Google

If so, here’s something to seriously consider in the voting booth on Nov. 6. In its official 2012 version, the Democratic Party finally scrubbed all recognition of God from its party platform. This was intentional. It was by design. No one should have been surprised. It was a long time coming.
In just the last decade or so, extremist elements within the Democratic establishment have lodged a successful secular-socialist coup. The alarming consequences of this “progressive” triumph have become manifest throughout the pages of the DNC’s 2012 platform. They were also on display at the recent Democratic convention.
Slippery was the slope into Democrats’ anti-theist primordial bog. In 2004, there were seven mentions of God in the platform. In 2008, there was but one.
And in 2012?
None.
Zip, zero, nada.
Godless.

“The style of delivery was one of those ‘moving finger/moving hand’ things ~ which Daniel translated. That’s the mene mene tekal upharison”. I’ve heard it said this was one example of God’s sense of humor——the “king” He sent the “finger” to, actually pissed his pants and died as a result of seeing this message written on the wall of his palace after a drunken party, during which he used blessed vessels to drink wine from!
I like YOUR style.
Great Viking Kitty graphic, DV! You’re on fire tonight. Really cool stuff.
You just don't see that often ~
Actually I've never seen it before but I recognized it. So, I looked for the contextual subtext and that was in the Dubrovnik city motto.
Too big for a koinkydink so it must be real ~ and it was certainly impressive. Reality sometimes isn't what you think it is.
The Dubrovnik motto suggested the Democrats were a gang of thieves and idiots who'd sold their souls for gold ~ which I think everybody else thinks as well.
So, they'd been measured, and weighed, and judged ~
They didn't pee their pants with fright ~ so it will take more ~ and I fear what will happen to them next.
Well said...
but, I’m hoping the democrat “peeing of the pants” happens the closer to November we get.
(I’ve enjoyed your posts!)
Placemark,
If you expect any political party to adhere to your own theology, you’d better believe the teachings of a large religious confession move to a country where a sizable majority of the population are at least moderately pious members of your confession. (Jews could move to Israel. Us Orthodox Christians could high-tail it to Greece or Romania if we wanted that. I’m not sure whether you’ve got anywhere to go.)
The point here is that in America we have expected our leaders to be at least “ceremonial deists”, and probably more, to be theists of some sort precisely because our rights come from God, not government, and whether the politician is a Christian you or I would regard as orthodox, a Christian or a sort you or I would regard as heretical, a believing (as opposed to merely ethnic) Jew, a Mormon, or a deist, there is a basis in their creed for that belief. (Notice I exclude Muslim here — the Islamic conception of God, unlike the Jewish, Christian, Mormon or deist, stands in opposition to the notion of human rights.) It is not hypocritical of the GOP to call the ‘Rats on the carpet for transgressing this norm, even if their actions during the RNC were distasteful to conservatives in the ways you enumerate.
Interesting post. I see a lot to agree with. I still can’t get over how I felt, watching the video of the rat convention. I felt like I was seeing a very black-—and a very old-—evil, right there on parade in front of me.
Awwww......kitty!
I have not been on FR recently. What is going on? How is Raising Cain’s posting wrong?
How so? If the Republicans embrace injustice, and conservatives not only tolerate it but demand other conservatives praise the GOPe, not to mention join in prayer with Mormons and other various heretics and/or fakers (as long as they’re Republican), how can we say that we care what God thinks about anything? The enemies of God are running both parties, and they use their vapid, worldly version of religion to appeal to people who have no real discernment. In effect, the GOPe and the conservative movement have only the form of godliness, but possess none of its power.
“I find it offensive to even suggest for a single moment that God has anything to do with the GOP or the DNC. We’ve long since passed up when truth, honor and justice was important in who we vote to lead us and in how our party behaves. This is simply a secular battle between two opposing groups of heathens, sociopaths and useful pawns, and the end result will be that God will give us up to being ruled by evil Men, since our trust was in men and not in God.”
We all watched as the GOP & Romney lied, cheated, bought and stole the election. That means that there are many people in the GOP & romney & his campaign who either don’t believe in God (I know Romney does not believe in the one true God) and feel they can do whatever they want or do not fear God, so they do whatever they want.
Has FR turned into a polically correct blog or did a very rich person it buy out or 51% of it?
The things I’ve been reading on a few of these threads makes me wonder what is going on. Sorry, I’m with Raising Cain. I’m probably going to be zotted for this. Hey, it’s never happened to me, but if it’s for speaking the truth while offending a protected group.....well...go ahead...I’m going to bed.
When you’re zotted is that like being grounded from a certain thread or all threads? Is it for 24 hours or like my dad always did 1 to 4 weeks?
Old evil indeed, just repackaged and contemporized for the masses ignorant of the Truth.
What they display as zeal is actually maniacal hysteria at this point.
They see their opportunity to forward their brand of socialism, via the left path, slipping away.....we, that hold dear the true light and modesty and moderation, i.e. conservatism, must not allow socialism to hide amongst our leaders on the right.
The right usually has a more mature, toned down, hysteria that is more subtle.....don’t buy into it.
I’ve seen this as a tag-line and a post:
“I’m voting for Paul Ryan.....and the other guy!”
Ryan is not without his faults, who is, however, I believe that he will provide the moderation the other guy needs.
Busy night. Wonderful graphics!
I imagine that you’ll get zotted only if you hijack multiple threads with the exact same complaints about Romney as you put in nearly every other one, and then mouth off to the Moderator when s/he tells you to knock it off.
And if you really want to feel the wrath of the Viking Kitties, be insufferably holier-than-thou the whole time while giving all other Christians a bad reputation.
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
You simply MUST make that its own thread! Wowsers, what a read!
