Thomas Sowell - "Senator John McCain could never convince me to vote for him. Only Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama can cause me to vote for McCain."  ...“Obama is being hailed as the newest and freshest face on the American political scene. But he is advocating some of the oldest fallacies, just as if it was the 1960s again, or as if he has learned nothing and forgotten nothing since then... But politics is not about facts. It is about what politicians can get people to believe.” 

The Top Ten Reasons Why I Love Hunting by Doug Giles - He’s a simple little executive breakdown of our two candidates: John McCain Congress: 26 years Military: 22 years Barack Obama Congress: 143 days Military: 0

Playing it safe, Obama steps back from McCain's challenge for a series of summer debates - Democratic candidate Barack Obama on Saturday backed away from rival John McCain's challenge for a series of joint appearances, agreeing only to the standard three debates in the fall. In May, when a McCain adviser proposed a series of pre-convention appearances at town hall meetings, Obama said, "I think that's a great idea." In summer stumping on the campaign trail, McCain has often noted that Obama had not followed through and joined him in any events. Obama's reversal on town hall debates is part of a play-it-safe strategy he's adopted since claiming the nomination and grabbing a lead in national polls. Advisers to the Illinois senator, speaking on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss strategy, say Obama is reluctant to take chances or give McCain a high-profile stage now that Obama's the front-runner.

NRCC HITS DRILL-NOTHING DEMS WITH NEW VIDEO  - The NRCC just relased a new video titled Democrats: An Agenda Americans Just Can't Afford.

Saudi Arabia to Deport 15 Christians Deportation Comes Two Weeks after King Abdullah Calls for Reconciliation between Muslims and Christians at Saudi Hosted Interfaith Dialog - The Washington-DC based human rights group, International Christian Concern (ICC) www.persecution.org has learned that Saudi Arabia is deporting 15 Christians on Tuesday, August 5th, for holding private worship meetings in a house in the city of Taif. On Friday, April 25, twelve Saudi Arabian police raided a house where 16 Christians were holding a prayer meeting. The first officer to enter the house after breaking down the main gate pointed a pistol at the Christians and ordered them to hand over their resident permits and mobile phones. The other 11 police followed quickly and started searching the entire house. They confiscated an electronic drum set, an offering box with 500 Saudi Riyal in it ($130), 20 bibles, and a few Christian books.


Indoctrination: "Mainstream" Media & Education? - (Education?) The good, the bad, and the ugly...Without a Heritage every generation starts over  Will our descendants know moral virtue? The primary responsibility of education DOES NOT belong to schools.  (Deuteronomy 6:5-7)

"A trained intelligence can do much, but there is no substitute for morality, character and religious conviction."  President Calvin Coolidge

"Knowledge unenlightened by the truth of God is dark knowledge. We may have a B.S., an M.S., and a Ph.D., but without the Lord all we have is dark information. It may help navigate us in the world of darkness, but by itself will never lead us to the truth. Apart from the revelation of the Spirit of God, none of us could ever find our way into the light. Darkly educated people are like those whom Paul described to his young protégé', Timothy, as 'always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth.'" (2 Timothy 3:7) Rediscovering the Kingdom by Myles Munroe
 


"Politically Correct" - (Politically Correct with PC dictionary) Examples and results of Political Correctness which means using unrighteous deception which lack Biblical Moral Virtue. Remove the Light (Jesus) and darkness (politically correct secular humanism) inevitably ensues.

First corrupt their young minds, then subject their health to the "natural" results of that corruption (as politicians, school administrators, judges, and worse, parents appease because of "political correctness.")

Lesbians Terrorize San Diego Community During 2008 Political March Lesbians Terrorize San Diego Community During Obscene Political Event As Parents Are Forced To Keep Their Kids Off The Streets To Protect Them During The 2008 San Diego Dyke March. Public Obscenities By Radical Lesbian Group Spells Doomsday For Family Values If Same-Sex Marriages Are Not Banned In California. (JHReport) In a scene that actually provides a rare and horrifying glimpse into the real world of lesbian politics, a large group of radical lesbian activists, some carrying signs with very obscene language, marched through a major public street in San Diego, California on Saturday, July 26, 2008. Calling itself San Diego Dyke March, the group of approximately 300 lesbians so disturbed a number of residents in the community of North Park, that one fearful churchgoer who resides in the area has alleged that a number of other church members were forced to keep their children indoors to avoid being exposed to the disgusting activities of the women. During the march, one shirtless woman exposed her bare chest. Photographs from the Dyke March show that this woman had had her breast surgically removed. During the march this same shirtless woman carried a sign that read, "I'm A Dyke. Ask Me How." ...The most disturbing aspect of this vile event can be seen in the photographs of children carrying signs along with the adults. One child had a sign that read, "I Love My Dyke Mom." Another small child had a sign that read "Queer." Near these children, a woman was carrying a sign that read, "I Love My C*unt" with a heart signifying the word love." ...Oftentimes American voters have a very difficult time obtaining factual information regarding the true motives of the gay political movement in the United States. When most conservative, pro-family activists attempt to inform the public about the true reality of the more radical elements of the homosexual agenda, they must contend with misinformation and pro-gay propaganda being disseminated by the liberal media. This confusing manipulation being created by the pro-gay media makes it very difficult for parents, teachers, and many politicians to protect children in a culture that promotes pornography over education and homosexual rights over the rights of parents to choose when and how they discuss sexual issues with their kids.

Do Homosexuals Have the Right to Adopt? - Friday Five: Thomas Atwood - by Devon Williams - 'It's self-evident that the natural order of the family is a mother and father.' Catholic Charities of Boston has placed 720 children into adoptive families over the last 20 years. Now, a Massachusetts law requiring child-placement services to allow homosexuals to adopt has forced the organization to end its adoption program. Thomas Atwood, president and chief executive officer of the U.S. National Council for Adoption, said children are the victims when faith-based organizations are forced to choose between compromising their beliefs and closing their doors. Atwood recently spoke with CitizenLink. 1. How do you respond to gay activists who claim they have the "right" to adopt? A lot of the argumentation you hear for nondiscrimination in child placements amounts to a rights argument, a right of adults. But, there is no right to adopt. Adoption is about finding the best possible parents for children, not about finding children for adults who would like to parent. There's no right to adopt, and if there's no right to adopt, then there's no "equal right" to adopt. So the rights argument is totally out of place. 2. How do "nondiscrimination" laws like the one in Massachusetts affect children?  It's really a violation of religious liberty to force a faith-based organization that does not recognize homosexual orientation as an appropriate lifestyle for parenting to make those kind of placements. An equally fundamental problem is that when you force compassionate, professional, excellent agencies — who have been making placements for years and decades and more than a century — out of service, the result is going to be that children will not have families. There are potential adoptive placements and foster placements that will not be made.

Emerging Church leader promotes lifestyle rather than faith A Christian broadcaster claims that Emerging Church leader Brian McLaren is fulfilling the biblical prophecy that in the latter days men will not put up with sound doctrine – according to II Timothy 4:3.

Why Are You Paying For This? by Kevin McCullough - "The fact that this site even exists is only half as offensive as the fact that 99% of all parents in America don't know that this is being done to target their children," said the Lovely Bride to me on Wednesday of this last week. She is right. Because of our collective willingness as a society to do anything and everything we can - accept those things that we really have responsibility to do, we have created a world that has given birth to the website "www.TakeCareDownThere.org". Worse yet YOU have funded this mess, and seemed unresolved to do anything about it. Planned Parenthood sends its thanks. In the event you would have not heard what the "TakeCare" website is all about let me give you a bit of an idea. Picture a fun, freewheeling website. A place of pastel colors, moveable design parts, promising to give you all the ins and outs on "the ins and outs." Designed to be so innocent looking from the moment it loads, parents would never have need to worry about there kids being able to find truly objectionable material. Right? Far from merely providing low cost abortions for primarily African American girls in the inner city of America, Planned Parenthood now seeks to further corrupt your child in which comedy skits serve as sex education, and homosexual, and casual sex philosophies are promoted not just as normal - but are shoved directly into the face of those watching.

Global Warming - A New Religion  (Total change Ministries) You may be asking why I am writing on global warming in a Christian newsletter? The main reason is that the global warming agenda is taking the form of a religion with global domination of nations, policies, and commerce. It is based on faith, not science. Critics are silenced and compliance is demanded. The whole thing reeks of manipulation and a deception sweeping the earth. I see this issue as just one of the forces attempting to bring in a new world system. The others, of course, are the oil and food crisis, and global terrorism. These combine to justify sweeping away our freedoms, taking control of our economies, and giving place to a world government based on 'saving the planet". We have a genuine food crisis now, but all of these seem to be problems created by manipulated policies and public reaction to media. ...First - A Little Science and Missing Common Sense ...A New Earth Religion? ...The New Eco-Religion. ...The Real Agenda ...Many of these observations came from a tremendous article on global warming as religion.
