“Barack Hussein Obama Calls Christianity into Question - Religion in the Public Square is Dealt Another Blow!”
by Gerri Gibney on 06/20/13
What
will it take for half the Americans in this country to wake up? Religious people and their institutions are
being openly attacked by President Barack Hussein Obama and there is no
outrage? I don’t believe it is right to
speak of politics from the pulpit, but this is not about politics anymore it is
about religious freedom.
If
you haven’t read his comment about Roman Catholic and Protestant schools, here
it is: “If towns remain divided—if
Catholics have their schools and buildings and Protestants have theirs, if we
can’t see ourselves in one another and fear or resentment are allowed to
harden—that too encourages division and discourages cooperation,” Obama said.
I
will not make explanations or excuses for parochial schools, their very
underpinnings are based on the Gospel.
No one should be looking to rationalize or to try and justify their
mission in education. What should be
happening is that people of all faith groups should be chastising and bringing
to task this incompetent, non-thinking, divisive president who knows nothing of
Christianity and yet purports to be a member of it.
We
do not need to defend ourselves as people of faith; instead, President Barack
Hussein Obama needs to apologize for his offensive, untrue, hurtful remarks.
He
is trying, and doing a very good job of it, to erase religion from the public
square and unless all of us as people of faith start to speak up it will
happen. A move has been underway to get
rid of the tax exempt status for religious institutions. It will only be a matter of time before the
hue and cry will go out to remove this exemption from religious groups who will
not ordain homosexuals and who will not marry them. And, if a religious group does not ordain
woman, they will be under attack as well.
President
Barack Hussein Obama surrounds himself with clerics when the need for a photo
op arises, especially at national disasters, when he asks us to pray for all
people. Yet, it seems that the very
people who he calls on to lead us in prayer, he has no regard for as people of
God. They are simply tools for him in
his unending thrust for complete power.
President
Barack Hussein Obama should be left on the national stage with not one member
of the clergy to call on God for His help, and His blessings. Better we quietly and with purpose do so in
our churches, synagogues, and homes to call on Him in all things. Amen.
