Obama Includes Evangelical Christians on List of Religious Extremists
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 13, 2013 | Jim Hoft

Earlier this year the Obama Administration warned military personnel that Christian Evangelicals were a number one threat to America.

The Obama Administration included Christians in their list of religious extremists.

The above slide came from a U.S. Army Reserve Equal Opportunity training brief titled “Extremism and Extremist Organizations.” The Obama Administration included Evangelical Christians with Al-Qaeda and the Ku Klux Klan.

Now this…

The Obama Administration “strongly objects” to a proposed amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would have protected the religious rights of soldiers – including evangelical Christian service members who are facing growing hostility towards their religion.

So many other things going on in the world that should attract attention, but Obama and his gestapo are more worried about how I pray and where I attend church. I think there are prophecies concerning this in the bible. And i think there is an Anti-Christ involved.

The only religious extremists I see are those who reference Christians in extremist ways.

Evangelical, fundamentalist..., these and other terms are inflammatory.

I haven’t once in my life referenced Christians in this manner. I am a Christian. I am not a fundamentalist, or an evangelical. I am a Christian, period!

Beyond that, what my beliefs are is no business of these anti-Christian zealots.

Hitler went after the Jews first and was planning to go after Christians next.

It looks like Christians are the main target this time.

The thing about being a Christian is, you can’t kill us, only change our address.

I am Catholic. If we were doing a better job fighting this tyranny, we’d be higher on the list.

THIS is why the government and all its various agencies see nothing WRONG with the abuses going on.

They ARE fighting terrorism. They are fighting what the current regime has re-defined as “the terrorists”.

They’re just abiding by what our most trustworthy and upright governmental leaders have set in place.

On a poster in my Sunday School class growing up:

"If you were accused of being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?"

---

Keep the faith and be happy to be accused. While the evil ones hate you, remember WHO loves you.

John 15:18-19 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Looking at the general response to a thread I posted here, that might take some doing — seems we can't even get the will to fight inviting invading illegals to stay in out congress. Of course you might have more luck with a common tradition as grounds than my appeal to a legal/constitutional 'gotcha' that the States could use to legally eviscerate the traitors in the Federal government.

Not that I doubt that the Obama Adminstration feels this way, but something is off about this list. If this really were a Government list, then they wouldn’t misspell “Mormon”.

Observant Jews get coveted Spot No. 3, despite (to my knowledge) having never commited an act of terror in the USA, ever.*

Wow, I “Placed” without trying!

* I am sure that spenty of Jews have committed acts of terror in the USA, but I am willing to bet they were non-observant and probably Communist Atheists. In short, the opposite of an observant Jew.

Including Islam is just a decoy.

The radical Leftist is projecting themselves once again. The radical Left is redefining who the enemy of America is, and it isn’t them so sayeth them. So guess who it is!?

It’s all part of the war on traditionalism. We are Christian, Conservative America, therefore we are the bad guys clinging to all that made this Nation the superpower, the success it became.

They are the good guys with dreams of making the same mistakes that have been made over, and over through the centuries, and expecting different results.

They deem it so.

LOL.

I suppose it is a place of honor.

All those radical papists trying to install an RC monarchy.
