Why you need to stop your lies against Obama & The Pope

[GodIsSalvation]

And? Continue on as you've laid a good foundation and shown you are willing to model God's design to your children. God's Word has more to say on the matter, however.

Consider 2 Timothy 3:14-17 which states:

"But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work."

Aye good points indeed!

Wallbuilders report on Obama:

"When one observes President Obama’s unwillingness to accommodate America’s four-century long religious conscience protection through his attempts to require Catholics to go against their own doctrines and beliefs, one is tempted to say that he is anti-Catholic. But that characterization would not be correct. Although he has recently singled out Catholics, he has equally targeted traditional Protestant beliefs over the past four years.

So since he has attacked Catholics and Protestants, one is tempted to say that he is anti-Christian. But that, too, would be inaccurate. He has been equally disrespectful in his appalling treatment of religious Jews in general and Israel in particular. So perhaps the most accurate description of his antipathy toward Catholics, Protestants, religious Jews, and the Jewish nation would be to characterize him as anti-Biblical. And then when his hostility toward Biblical people of faith is contrasted with his preferential treatment of Muslims and Muslim nations, it further strengthens the accuracy of the anti-Biblical descriptor. In fact, there have been numerous clearly documented times when his pro-Islam positions have been the cause of his anti-Biblical actions.

Listed below in chronological order are (1) numerous records of his attacks on Biblical persons or organizations; (2) examples of the hostility toward Biblical faith that have become evident in the past three years in the Obama-led military; (3) a listing of his open attacks on Biblical values; and finally (4) a listing of numerous incidents of his preferential deference for Islam’s activities and positions, including letting his Islamic advisors guide and influence his hostility toward people of Biblical faith:

1. Acts of hostility toward people of Biblical faith:

• December 2009-Present - The annual White House Christmas cards, rather than focusing on Christmas or faith, instead highlight things such as the family dogs. And the White House Christmas tree ornaments include figures such as Mao Tse-Tung and a drag queen. [1]

• February 2013 – The Obama Administration announces that the rights of religious conscience for individuals will not be protected under the Affordable Care Act. [3]
• January 2013 – Pastor Louie Giglio is pressured to remove himself from praying at the inauguration after it is discovered he once preached a sermon supporting the Biblical definition of marriage. [4]

• April 2011 – For the first time in American history, Obama urges passage of a non-discrimination law that does not contain hiring protections for religious groups, forcing religious organizations to hire according to federal mandates without regard to the dictates of their own faith, thus eliminating conscience protection in hiring. [11]
• February 2011 – Although he filled posts in the State Department, for more than two years Obama did not fill the post of religious freedom ambassador, an official that works against religious persecution across the world; he filled it only after heavy pressure from the public and from Congress. [12]
• January 2011 – After a federal law was passed to transfer a WWI Memorial in the Mojave Desert to private ownership, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that the cross in the memorial could continue to stand, but the Obama administration refused to allow the land to be transferred as required by law, and refused to allow the cross to be re-erected as ordered by the Court. [13]
• November 2010 – Obama misquotes the National Motto, saying it is “E pluribus unum” rather than “In God We Trust” as established by federal law. [14]
• October 19, 2010 – Obama begins deliberately omitting the phrase about “the Creator” when quoting the Declaration of Independence – an omission he has made on no less than seven occasions. [15]
• May 2009 – Obama declines to host services for the National Prayer Day (a day established by federal law) at the White House. [16]
• April 2009 – When speaking at Georgetown University, Obama orders that a monogram symbolizing Jesus' name be covered when he is making his speech. [17]
• April 2009 – In a deliberate act of disrespect, Obama nominated three pro-abortion ambassadors to the Vatican; of course, the pro-life Vatican rejected all three. [18]
• February 2009 – Obama announces plans to revoke conscience protection for health workers who refuse to participate in medical activities that go against their beliefs, and fully implements the plan in February 2011. [19]
• April 2008 – Obama speaks disrespectfully of Christians, saying they “cling to guns or religion” and have an “antipathy to people who aren't like them.” [20]"

2. Acts of hostility from the Obama-led military toward people of Biblical faith:

• December 2013 - A naval facility required that two nativity scenes -- scenes depicting the event that caused Christmas to be declared a national federal holiday -- be removed from the base dining hall and be confined to the base chapel, thus disallowing the open public acknowledgment of this national federal holiday. [21]
• December 2013 - An Air Force base that allowed various public displays ordered the removal of one simply because it contained religious content. [22]
• October 2013 – A counter-intelligence briefing at Fort Hood tells soldiers that evangelical Christians are a threat to Americans and that for a soldier to donate to such a group “was punishable under military regulations.” [23]
• October 2013 – Catholic priests hired to serve as military chaplains are prohibited from performing Mass services at base chapels during the government financial shutdown. When they offered to freely do Mass for soldiers, without regard to whether or not the chaplains were receiving pay, they are still denied permission to do so. [24]
• October 2013 - The Air Force Academy, in response to a complaint from Mikey Weinstein's Military Religious Freedom Foundation, makes "so help me God" optional in cadets' honor oath. [25]
• August 2013 - A Department of Defense military training manual teaches soldiers that people who talk about "individual liberties, states' rights, and how to make the world a better place" are "extremists." It also lists the Founding Fathers -- those "colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule" -- as examples of those involved in "extremist ideologies and movements." [26]
• August 2013 - A Senior Master Sergeant was removed from his position and reassigned because he told his openly lesbian squadron commander that she should not punish a staff sergeant who expressed his views in favor of traditional marriage. [27]
• August 2013 - The military does not provide heterosexual couples specific paid leave to travel to a state just for the purpose of being married, but it did extend these benefits to homosexual couples who want to marry, thus giving them preferential treatment not available to heterosexuals. [28]
• August 2013 - The Air Force, in the midst of having launched a series of attacks against those expressing traditional religious or moral views, invited a drag queen group to perform at a base. [29]
• July 2013 - When an Air Force sergeant with years of military service questioned a same-sex marriage ceremony performed at the Air Force Academy's chapel, he received a letter of reprimand telling him that if he disagreed, he needed to get out of the military. His current six-year reenlistment was then reduced to only one-year, with the notification that he "be prepared to retire at the end of this year." [30]
• July 2013 - An Air Force chaplain who posted a website article on the importance of faith and the origin of the phrase "There are no atheists in foxholes" was officially ordered to remove his post because some were offended by the use of that famous World War II phrase. [31]
• June 2013 - The U. S. Air Force, in consultation with the Pentagon, removed an inspirational painting that for years has been hanging at Mountain Home Air Force Base because its title was "Blessed Are The Peacemakers" -- a phrase from Matthew 5:9 in the Bible. [32]
• June 2013 – The Obama administration “strongly objects” to a Defense Authorization amendment to protect the constitutionally-guaranteed religious rights of soldiers and chaplains, claiming that it would have an “adverse effect on good order, discipline, morale, and mission accomplishment.” [33]
• June 2013 – At a joint base in New Jersey, a video was made, based on a Super Bowl commercial, to honor First Sergeants. It stated: “On the eighth day, God looked down on His creation and said, ‘I need someone who will take care of the Airmen.’ So God created a First Sergeant.” Because the video mentioned the word “God,” the Air Force required that it be taken down. [34]
• June 2013 – An Army Master Sergeant is reprimanded, threatened with judicial action, and given a bad efficiency report, being told he was “no longer a team player,” because he voiced his support of traditional marriage at his own promotion party. [35]
• May 2013 - The Pentagon announces that "Air Force members are free to express their personal religious beliefs as long as it does not make others uncomfortable. "Proselytizing (inducing someone to convert to one's faith) goes over that line," [36] affirming if a sharing of faith makes someone feel uncomfortable that it could be a court-marital offense [37] -- the military equivalent of a civil felony.
• May 2013 - An Air Force officer was actually made to remove a personal Bible from his own desk because it "might" appear that he was condoning the particular religion to which he belonged. [38]
• April 2013 – Officials briefing U.S. Army soldiers placed "Evangelical Christianity" and "Catholicism" in a list that also included Al-Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood, and Hamas as examples of "religious extremism." [39]
• April 2013 – The U.S. Army directs troops to scratch off and paint over tiny Scripture verse references that for decades had been forged into weapon scopes. [40]
• April 2013 - The Air Force creates a "religious tolerance" policy but consults only a militant atheist group to do so -- a group whose leader has described military personnel who are religious as 'spiritual rapists' and 'human monsters' [41] and who also says that soldiers who proselytize are guilty of treason and sedition and should be punished to hold back a "tidal wave of fundamentalists." [42]
• January 2013 – President Obama announced his opposition to a provision in the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act protecting the rights of conscience for military chaplains. [43]
• June 2012 – Bibles for the American military have been printed in every conflict since the American Revolution, but the Obama Administration revokes the long-standing U. S. policy of allowing military service emblems to be placed on those military Bibles. [44]
• May 2012 – The Obama administration opposed legislation to protect the rights of conscience for military chaplains who do not wish to perform same-sex marriages in violation of their strongly-held religious beliefs. [45]
• April 2012 – A checklist for Air Force Inns will no longer include ensuring that a Bible is available in rooms for those who want to use them. [46]
• February 2012 – The U. S. Military Academy at West Point disinvites three star Army general and decorated war hero Lieutenant General William G. (“Jerry”) Boykin (retired) from speaking at an event because he is an outspoken Christian. [47]
• February 2012 – The Air Force removes “God” from the patch of Rapid Capabilities Office (the word on the patch was in Latin: Dei). [48]
• February 2012 – The Army ordered Catholic chaplains not to read a letter to parishioners that their archbishop asked them to read. [49]
• November 2011 – The Air Force Academy rescinds support for Operation Christmas Child, a program to send holiday gifts to impoverished children across the world, because the program is run by a Christian charity. [50]
• November 2011 – President Obama opposes inclusion of President Franklin Roosevelt’s famous D-Day Prayer in the WWII Memorial. [SUP][51][/SUP]
• November 2011 – Even while restricting and disapprobating Christian religious expressions, the Air Force Academy pays $80,000 to add a Stonehenge-like worship center for pagans, druids, witches and Wiccans at the Air Force Academy. [52]
• September 2011 – Air Force Chief of Staff prohibits commanders from notifying airmen of programs and services available to them from chaplains. [53]
• September 2011 – The Army issues guidelines for Walter Reed Medical Center stipulating that “No religious items (i.e. Bibles, reading materials and/or facts) are allowed to be given away or used during a visit.” [54]
• August 2011 – The Air Force stops teaching the Just War theory to officers in California because the course is taught by chaplains and is based on a philosophy introduced by St. Augustine in the third century AD – a theory long taught by civilized nations across the world (except now, America). [55]
• June 2011 – The Department of Veterans Affairs forbids references to God and Jesus during burial ceremonies at Houston National Cemetery. [56]
• January 2010 – Because of "concerns" raised by the Department of Defense, tiny Bible verse references that had appeared for decades on scopes and gunsights were removed. [57]

3. Acts of hostility toward Biblical values:

• March 2014 - The Obama administration seeks funding for every type of sex-education -- except that which reflects traditional moral values. [58]
• August 2013 - Non-profit charitable hospitals, especially faith-based ones, will face large fines or lose their tax-exempt status if they don't comply with new strangling paperwork requirements related to giving free treatment to poor clients who do not have Obamacare insurance coverage. [SUP][59][/SUP] Ironically, the first hospital in America was founded as a charitable institution in 1751 by Benjamin Franklin, and its logo was the Good Samaritan, with Luke 10:35 inscribed below him: "Take care of him, and I will repay thee," being designed specifically to offer free medical care to the poor. [60] Benjamin Franklin's hospital would likely be fined unless he placed more resources and funds into paperwork rather than helping the poor under the new faith-hostile policy of the Obama administration.
• August 2013 - USAID, a federal government agency, shut down a conference in South Korea the night before it was scheduled to take place because some of the presentations were not pro-abortion but instead presented information on abortion complications, including the problems of "preterm births, mental health issues, and maternal mortality" among women giving birth who had previous abortions. [61]
• June 2013 – The Obama Administration finalizes requirements that under the Obamacare insurance program, employers must make available abortion-causing drugs, regardless of the religious conscience objections of many employers and even despite the directive of several federal courts to protect the religious conscience of employers. [62]
• April 2013 – The United States Agency for Internal Development (USAID), an official foreign policy agency of the U.S. government, begins a program to train homosexual activists in various countries around the world to overturn traditional marriage and anti-sodomy laws, targeting first those countries with strong Catholic influences, including Ecuador, Honduras, and Guatemala. [63]
• December 2012 – Despite having campaigned to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, President Obama once again suspends the provisions of the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 which requires the United States to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and to move the American Embassy there. [64]
• July 2012 - The Pentagon, for the first time, allows service members to wear their uniforms while marching in a parade - specifically, a gay pride parade in San Diego. [65]
• October 2011 – The Obama administration eliminates federal grants to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops for their extensive programs that aid victims of human trafficking because the Catholic Church is anti-abortion. [66]
• September 2011 – The Pentagon directs that military chaplains may perform same-sex marriages at military facilities in violation of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. [67]
• July 2011 – Obama allows homosexuals to serve openly in the military, reversing a policy originally instituted by George Washington in March 1778. [68]

• July 2010 – The Obama administration uses federal funds in violation of federal law to get Kenya to change its constitution to include abortion. [73]
• September 16, 2009 – The Obama administration appoints as EEOC Commissioner Chai Feldblum, who asserts that society should “not tolerate” any “private beliefs,” including religious beliefs, if they may negatively affect homosexual “equality.” [74]
• July 2009 – The Obama administration illegally extends federal benefits to same-sex partners of Foreign Service and Executive Branch employees, in direction violation of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. [75]
• May 2009 – The White House budget eliminates all funding for abstinence-only education and replaces it with “comprehensive” sexual education, repeatedly proven to increase teen pregnancies and abortions. [76] He continues the deletion in subsequent budgets. [77]
• May 2009 – Obama officials assemble a terrorism dictionary calling pro-life advocates violent and charging that they use racism in their “criminal” activities. [78]
• March 2009 – The Obama administration shut out pro-life groups from attending a White House-sponsored health care summit. [79]
• March 2009 – Obama orders taxpayer funding of embryonic stem cell research. [80]
• March 2009 – Obama gave $50 million for the UNFPA, the UN population agency that promotes abortion and works closely with Chinese population control officials who use forced abortions and involuntary sterilizations. [81]
• January 2009 – Obama lifts restrictions on U.S. government funding for groups that provide abortion services or counseling abroad, forcing taxpayers to fund pro-abortion groups that either promote or perform abortions in other nations. [82]
• January 2009 – President Obama’s nominee for deputy secretary of state asserts that American taxpayers are required to pay for abortions and that limits on abortion funding are unconstitutional. [83]

4. Acts of preferentialism for Islam:

• February 2012 – The Obama administration makes effulgent apologies for Korans being burned by the U. S. military, [84] but when Bibles were burned by the military, numerous reasons were offered why it was the right thing to do. [85]
• October 2011 – Obama’s Muslim advisers block Middle Eastern Christians’ access to the White House. [86]
• August 2010 – Obama speaks with great praise of Islam and condescendingly of Christianity. [87]
• August 2010 – Obama went to great lengths to speak out on multiple occasions on behalf of building an Islamic mosque at Ground Zero, while at the same time he was silent about a Christian church being denied permission to rebuild at that location. [88]
• April 2010 – Christian leader Franklin Graham is disinvited from the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer Event because of complaints from the Muslim community. [89]
• April 2010 – The Obama administration requires rewriting of government documents and a change in administration vocabulary to remove terms that are deemed offensive to Muslims, including jihad, jihadists, terrorists, radical Islamic, etc. [90]
• May 2009 – While Obama does not host any National Day of Prayer event at the White House, he does host White House Iftar dinners in honor of Ramadan. [91]
• 2010 – While every White House traditionally issues hundreds of official proclamations and statements on numerous occasions, this White House avoids traditional Biblical holidays and events but regularly recognizes major Muslim holidays, as evidenced by its 2010 statements on Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Hajj, and Eid-ul-Adha. [92]

Many of these actions are literally unprecedented – this is the first time they have happened in four centuries of American history. The hostility of President Obama toward Biblical faith and values is without equal from any previous American president.

[Funrider]

So, original poster.

Anything to say to THAT above evidence.

 

[Kerim]

After being on earth about 6 decades, I personally cannot call ANY politician in the world a liar.
I hope I can explain the reason properly in English

Politics is the oldest art known by men, hence it has evolved more than any other art in our life.
Politics is the art of controlling the masses with a smile and continuous hope.
Politics, since always, has needed gifted and well-trained persons to play its very important roles before the masses.

Let us jump to the present international Politics which is evolved incredibly

Politics could be seen now as a long non-stop series (broadcasted worldwide).

The top producers and directors in the world of this great international series don't need to show up (as it is the case for movies). And they have all the necessary means (power and money) to hire the politicians that are needed on almost over the world (at least in the important regions). Please note that, here, 'hiring a politician' means convincing someone, in a way or another, to play faithfully his given role that should serve at the end the plans of the Politics' Elite producers.

How these actors are replaced or even fired (sometimes making of them, scapegoats) also depends on where they play their roles. For example, some of them could be replaced or re-hired by great ceremonies of so-called free elections (as in America). Some others are instructed to play the kings or princes as in Saudi Arabia.

In brief, how could I call an actor, named politician, a liar?
A good actor has to tell his audience interesting stories as they are written on his given scripts.
Also, he could be instructed to play the Good, the Bad or the Ugly because all these roles are needed to make a good movie... hence good politics

Nevertheless Kerim, in politics, some possess and display a godly normative morality and some do not. Those that do use their position to increase salt (e.g. holiness and agape love) and light (e.g. truth and reform) and those that don't use their position to further immoral wickedness and spiritual deceit clothing them with the appearance of Satan's "light" (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).

When I examine Obama's political choices, what I see is a worker of iniquity who fits neatly into the latter category that is deceived and deceiving others.

This thread has been going on for over a month. I find the subject boring and unimaginative. Thank you to all for the clarification but as my mind has enough clutter in it already all this stuff that has been posted goes into the recycle bin.

 

[AgeofKnowledge]

Yet ironically, instead of simply ignoring the thread: you chose to enter it and make an unhelpful comment. As you say, sometimes less is more and truly, in your case here, nothing is even better.

Please when you see a free independent person (anywhere in the world) is allowed to have a position among the top politicians, don't forget to send me a note

On the other hand, I agree with you on the fact that some politicians, as the actors in movies, could be given the role to play also the 'good'... if not the 'very good'

 

[AgeofKnowledge]

You're making a false assertion that not one politician in the world at a high level possesses and displays a godly normative morality.

That aside, were you influenced by the writings of Max Weber per chance?

[David_1]

Poor David, too blinded by liberalism to see the truth..

I don't mind criticism based on facts and evidence. AgeofKnowledge is working overtime to present that. I am fine with that.

This thread is about lying. This threads asks people to not bear false witness, which is a commandment from God. So YOU wisebeardman might want to respect that and take God Seriously.

What is acceptable:
* I don't like Obama's governance based on (insert xyz fact backed up by real evidence (not Fox News)).

What is unacceptable:
* OBuma's a secret Communist Mooslem that sacrifices babies in his basement.

One is an opinion, the other is blantant lying and bearing false witness.

If people don't get that, then frankly I think a lot of you are headed for damnation with your constant lying and disrespect of God.

I claimed he was a socialist, not a communist. Communism is a form of socialism. Socialism is the belief that at the end of the day, the government bears the burden of support and must run the country in its entirety, from morality to economy. A randian libertarian, the opposite side, believes at the end of the day, it's the person who bears the burden of supporting himself and his is the only authority for morality and economy. Obama's actions speak to him being a socialist.

I, however, am a modern feudalist. It's a belief that the constitutional monarchy is closest to a better form of government, but where the house of lords is still appointed by the monarchy. Call me a radical or deranged, but it's what I believe.

But... Obama is a secret Communist Muslim who sacrifices babies in his basement.

He was raised to be a classical Marxist and advocated such in college; however, no babies in the basement. You just bore false witness on the latter point.

It should be noted that some things are harder to qualify than others. Here's an example:

Why is Marxism a bad ideology?
