Recently I've posted my opinion piece at one of the US Christian forums. But no one has replied to it. I sincerely believe that we Christians can't turn a blind eye to what is happening in our country and what policies our candidates for President will promote.

Here is what concerns me deeply.


Hillary Clinton always called herself a feminist, and now (as opposed to the 2008 election campaign) she makes extensive use of voters' false pride by offering them to contribute to participate in would be historical event – the election of the first female US president.

At the same time, you need to be aware of reasons why the former First Lady is so focused on the women's question, and what are her aims in this matter. First of all, the probable cause of it all is the absence or distortion of paternal love in her childhood. For example, Carl Bernstein in his biography of Hillary, "A Woman in Charge: the Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton," wrote that her father used to regularly abuse and humiliate her mother and had established strict physical discipline in their home. Perhaps, it is this distorted vision of traditional values as mere supremacy and authority that made Hillary Clinton a man-hater, if not even a misanthropist.

Well, June 10, 2016 the main US presidential candidate from the Democratic Party said that in the case of victory she would defend the right of women to abortion and public funding of the procedure. Thus, her promises go further than to aimlessly turn pregnant women and doctors into killers, she is going to make all taxpayers abetting in this crime.

Alongside with that, a possible "mistress" of the Oval Office is fully aware that "religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed" in order to accommodate abortions. Doing so she will destroy the very basis of our society! Moreover, Clinton is committed to deliver the fate of next generations into the hands of organ-traffickers – particularly into the hands of her sponsors from Planned Parenthood.

While expressing her pride for working with Planned Parenthood and StemExpress, happy mother Hilary could not be unaware of allegations against them for illegal and inhumane trafficking of embryos. What is more, she supported them against "unjust attacks"! In exchange for this, CEO of "StemExpress" Cate Dyer gave the former First Lady not only financial assistance, but also an explicit public support. And after that Clinton is trying to convince Americans that her feminism is "moderate" and traditional values are of great importance for her! How naive is that? Nonetheless, a lot of media publications seem to be issued with such an unattainable goal!

Clinton's position on abortions is far from common sense, and it seems like it never was supposed to be reasonable. It is merely a result of warped spirituality, mental depravity and even unhealthy subconscious aspirations. And all these diseases are still feeding it. That is why the former First Lady who is shown to be an example of humanity and progressiveness, fails to hear biologists saying that by 20 weeks after fertilization unborn babies are capable of feeling pain. Yes, when the unborn child in a womb is divided into parts – it hurts them! Nevertheless, Hillary Clinton attacked bill against cruel late-term abortions and other proposed legislative measures dealing with unborn pain, dismemberment abortions, informed consent, webcam abortions, parental involvement, etc.!

Did a feminist Hillary Clinton ever think how many girls she had depraved and sold into slavery to sin or pimps by her pandering to irresponsible behavior? How many girls – the very those who "matter to economic and political progress around the world", might have a chance "to work and earn as full and equal partners in society" and thus lead the country to prosperity, – haven't been born because of her?

None too concerned. Vote for Jesus Christ and let God take care of the rest.
 
Voting for Clinton simply because she is a woman is no different than those that voted for Obama in 2008 because he's (half) black. Those people should have their voter registration revoked, because those are the two worst reasons to vote for a candidate.
 
Insightful Maria. The issues and policies are all that matter. To deviate from the principles of godliness which comes from the blinding corruption of [perceived] power will always bring suffering. We need to state and live the godly principles so they become societal salt and light.

Feminism is a part of a Hellenistic culture of corruption. Idol worship becomes the norm whether in the form of money, sex, sports, holidays, food, buildings or etc. Men corrupt themselves in these things and women are left with a response to stop it. They fall into the same idolatry of power trap and the system ends itself - the serpent has bitten it's tail.

As to abortion, we need to avoid the either-or fallacy --
...... 'EITHER you are Pro-Life OR you are Pro-Choice .....

The fallacy rejects the roots:
... What created the fetus - pride, lust, fear, jealousy, covetousness, that leads to fornication?

Without the false seed, the fetus and thus the fallacy does not exist. Church and Government needs power and control. Sex is one mechanism to attain this. Pimps is a good observation and warning.

Promote the issues and policies to awaken church and state that
..... "the government is upon His shoulders"
 
A friend of mine from Illinois has recently wrote me... Our mutual acquaintance committed suicide a couple of years ago that day. And the reason was her lesbianism. No, there was no public criticism, humiliation or misunderstanding in her family, and she didn't have to keep her habits in secret... It's spiritual illness itself that was the cause. And now this disease infects the whole our country. The scale is frightening. I don't want America to suicide. That's why I've decided to share my friend's article with you.

The majority of Catholics voted for Obama just as they did for Roosevelt and Kennedy. This is likely the same for other more adherents of liberal-moderate religions.

You have to admit to some extent, that the masses are moved along by explicit embellishment or attack of core belief issues. I agree with you, up to pulling the right to vote from someone. But ask yourself why are these "issues" even issues? I'm talking about the social and cultural topics. We all know why unemployment, economics, spending, taxes are on the table...because no one ever solves them, try having the same perpetual challenges in your job from week to week, year to year, election cycle to election cycle and see what happens. What is it the Donald says? Your Fired!
 
I have a theory along these lines - that Trump might be a stooge candidate where the U.S elite oligarchs put forward a populist candidate that would initially satisfy the disenfranchised right who have in the last few years become mobilized (like the Tea Party Movement). Trump initially said many things that would ingratiate him to the disenfranchised right in order to win the Republican nomination but since then almost immediately has become a caricature of a ineptitude.

I find it difficult to believe a billionaire would have more in common with the disenfranchised right than the other billionaire elite cronies who run the political scene in the U.S. He seems to have come out of nowhere politically, again like Obama with no apparent history or track record with which to verify his credentials.

In terms of policy and implementation of said policy there is precious little difference between the Bush's Clinton's and Obama. They all have eroded the rights of the citizens, eroded U.S. sovereignty, enriched the shadowy oligarch's by transferring wealth from the citizens via the Federal Reserve scam. The U.S. government is becoming more and more authoritarian and operating outside their constitutional areas of authority. Just look at the militarization of local police forces and the way they are treating the citizen's.

Side Note:- Everyone of the recent Australian Prime Minister seems to radically change their tune immediately after visiting the white house - The US VP - Joe B just visited Australia immediately after the recent Australian election. I wonder what the need for that visit was?

I think the Republican versus Democrat hostility is a little like Pro wrestling - on camera they appear to hate each other but behind closed doors they count and distribute the cash from their little political enterprise in a much more collegiate manner.

I say again I think Trump was put forward to first gather the disgruntled right together - attach them to a candidate and then dissipate them politically (via the candidate's self destruction) them as a threat to the powers that be.

Obama was a Clinton stooge - he literally came out of nowhere, with a hidden past and strong ties to the Clinton's. Obama's rhetoric of change without specification did not have any real effect on the agendas, policies or practices of the Government.

There was no real practical political difference between Bush, Clinton, Bush W, Obama. They are all just stooges and front men for the real powers in control. It's just a pantomime drama for the masses - grab some popcorn and watch the show.
 
Will likely write in my own candidate choice.  Don't like either of the mainstream options I have been given to choose from.  Ultimately, I am more concerned with the election of my local government officials like county sheriff, state house officials, etc.

Anissa, please accept my condolences!

Being fired doesn't violate our faith. It's just about prosperity and comfort. It can hardly harm our souls. It's a challenge that can be coped with by God's mercy.
But sodomy is a spiritual disease indeed. It not only abuses our faith but poses a threat to the salvation of our loved ones' souls! We just can't ignore this.

The 'fired' statement was an anti-trump sentiment, not about people being fired from a job.

And that some men and women choose to have butt-sex is a threat to peoples salvation?
 
Judging by the two nominees I would say that US voters in general couldn't give a rats behind who they vote for.
 
It is the U.S. President who must protect the interests of the majority and strengthen the power of the state, including its moral foundations. Obviously, this is not something Hillary Clinton is going to do.
