Breitbart Is Vetting Obama's Connections to Radical Alinsky

If you had any doubt that Obama was trained in Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" methods, or that he believes in and actually taught such Marxist/fascist/radical methods, the following post should remove all doubt! Be sure to scroll down on the section that reveals the ENTIRE poster - where you will see Obama's name listed!!

The Vetting, Part I: Barack's Love Song To Alinsky

http://www.breitbart.com/

The vetting of President Barack Obama begins now, with Andrew Breitbart's final piece, exposing Obama's association with a radical leftist play titled -- appropriately enough -- 'The Love Song of Saul Alinsky.'

Excerpt:

Prior to his passing, Andrew Breitbart said that the mission of the Breitbart empire was to exemplify the free and fearless press that our Constitution protects--but which, increasingly, the mainstream media denies us.

“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” – “Who guards the guardians?” Andrew saw himself in that role—as a guardian protecting Americans from the left’s “objective” loyal scribes.


Andrew wanted to do what the mainstream media would not. First and foremost: Andrew pledged to vet President Barack H. Obama.

Andrew did not want to re-litigate the 2008 election. Nor did he want to let Republicans off the hook. Instead, he wanted to show that the media had failed in its most basic duty: to uncover the truth, and hold those in power accountable, regardless of party.

From today through Election Day, November 6, 2012, we will vet this president--and his rivals.

We begin with a column Andrew wrote last week in preparation for today’s Big relaunch--a story that should swing the first hammer against the glass wall the mainstream media has built around Barack Obama.

Dr. David Jeremiah's new television series is entitled, 7 Days Until Christ Returns.

This is not designed to say that Christ will return after the next seven days (for no one knows the day nor hour - but God Himself). It is a study to see what Christian individuals might do differently if each of us KNEW that Christ would return in seven days.

From Dr. Jeremiah's site:

7 Days Until Christ Returns
ABOUT THE CURRENT TELEVISION SERIES

Want to see asteroids from space? Tidal waves engulfing whole cities? Iconic structures collapsing? Just visit your local theater. Doomsday films attract huge audiences as movie-goers imagine the world’s final destruction. But we don’t need these movies to find answers.
All the information we need is in the Bible. One day the world will face a period of distress and great tribulation such as it has never seen before and will never see again. But not so fast! First, Christ will return for His own. That can happen at any moment . . . maybe 7 days from now.

Now, we don’t know exactly when Christ will return, and the Bible warns us against setting dates. But that doesn’t mean we can’t use our sanctified imaginations in thinking about it.

What if we did know Jesus was coming again 7 days from now? Would we live differently?

In 7 Days Until Christ Returns, Dr. Jeremiah presents a personal 7-step action plan to prepare for the Second Coming of Christ. These 7 messages will encourage you to develop an awareness of areas in your life that you would want to change if Christ were returning in the next 7 days.

Obama birth certificate forger hunted by Sheriff Joe Arpaio law enforcement, Arpaio indicts media, Media receive 5 Orwells for Orwellian efforts “Why has Obama, since taking the White House, used Justice ...

When Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his Cold Case Posse gave a news conference on March 1, 2012, there were dozens of news cameras present in the audience, taping the event. There were even several questions asked after all of the evidence had been shown. But what kind of questions did the news people ask? Mostly "gotcha" type questions designed to get the investigators to admit that they are "birthers" out to accuse Obama of fraud. I did not hear ONE person ask any questions about the devastating evidence that was presented that will require additional investigation.  I didn't hear ONE news person ask about the "person of interest" that was mentioned as a possible forger of the COLB for Obama.  I did not hear ONE news person ask about the evidence for the forgery of Obama's Selective Service form.  I ask you, if this case had been evidence against former President George W. Bush, would the media have treated it with silence this way?  Of course not!  We have seen how the media blasts all their proverbial guns at the GOP candidates, but remains mute about such a big case against Obama.


Two George Orwell quotes shared by Citizen Wells:

“The past is whatever the records and the memories agree upon.
And since the party is in full control of all records, and in
equally full control of the minds of it’s members, it follows
that the past is whatever the party chooses to make it. Six
means eighteen, two plus two equals five, war is peace,
freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.”…George Orwell, “1984″

“If the party could thrust its hand into the past and say
of this and that event, it never happened–that, surely,
was more terrifying than mere torture and death.”…George Orwell, “1984″

Apparently, the news people did not report on the press conference. Media of mass deception blackout...once again!


In what some might call a completely unrelated case, there is much suspicion regarding the death of Conservative Activist, Andrew Breitbart. I mentioned this in the comment section of a previous post, but I wondered why the media of mass deception immediately trotted out the idea that Breitbart died "of natural causes." An autopsy has been done and it will take 6 - 8 weeks for the results.


At least SOMEONE is asking questions about Breitbart's sudden death!

Why No Coverage of This Odd Obama Remark about Religion?

American Thinker - 1 day ago

Did you miss the news coverage these past days in which that really odd comment that Obama made about religion came back to embarrass him and embroil him in great controversy? There wasn't any.

Excerpt:

Consider this latest compelling evidence of double-standard bias:

At the very time that the media was so forcefully focusing on religion-related remarks made by Santorum, news broke that a court in Iran had just ordered a 34-year-old married father of two to be put to death for converting from Islam to Christianity. And supposedly, not a single journalist in the mainstream media connected the dots between that action and these incredibly foolish and manifestly false words that Barack Obama had said about Islam:

Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance.

Obama said this in his June 2009 Cairo speech that the media praised to the high heavens -- literally. Remember how Newsweek editor Evan Thomas gushed: "Obama's standing above the country, above-above the world, he's sort of God...he's the teacher"?

How can it be that it did not occur to a single one of the best and brightest of America's major news media journalists that it might be interesting to ask Barack Obama if, in light of an Iranian court's ordering a death sentence for the crime of converting to Christianity, he still stands by his assertion that Islam shows us "the possibilities of religious tolerance"?

While gleefully pouring controversy over Santorum, as they would with any conservative, they covered for Obama by not asking him obvious questions that would have stirred up controversy that would still be raging. Such as:

Which specific words and deeds did Obama have in mind that made him conclude that Islam was demonstrating for us "the possibilities of religious tolerance"?

Does this ordered execution for conversion from Islam cause Obama to reconsider his view that Islam equals religious tolerance?

A media that did not see itself as playing a supporting role in Obama's re-election campaign would have a field day contrasting this stark fact of barbaric intolerance with Obama's mind-bogglingly foolish false praise.


[Blind] followers never question.

The media do not put such tough, embarrassing questions to Obama because they see themselves as his allies and their role as his protectors.

What Is Right About Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer | FrontPage Magazine

I never thought that I would ever hear about a Daily Kos Kid making a 180 degree turn from his radical leftist/pro-Islamist ideology! But today, I found one!

Mr. Eric Allen Bell has written an absolutely riveting account of his journey from the the left's "romance with tyranny and terror" through discovering what two political warriors (Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer) on the right of the blogosphere have done to expose what Islam is REALLY all about. This man has put down the CAIR propaganda Kool-Aid.  In his essay over at FrontPage Magazine, he reveals how has used his own research to back up his decision to abandon his "not-thinking" ideology so often spewed by the political left, and tells how the often painful journey actually freed him from the errors and mindset that the left used to keep him in darkness and away from the truth .


What Is Right About Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer FrontPage Magazine

Excerpt:

[Editor's note: The article below is written by Eric Allen Bell, a filmmaker who was recently banned from blogging at  the “Daily Kos” because he wrote three articles that ran afoul of the mindset there, specifically naming “Loonwatch.com” as a “terrorist spin control network.” Don't miss Eric Bell on Frontpage's television program, The Glazov Gang.]

I write this mainly for the benefit of so many of my Liberal friends.  I know you have good hearts, but have been badly deceived by your peers and leaders when it comes to the threat of Jihad, and the character of those few brave individuals, who have had the courage to risk everything, to stand up for liberty and human rights…

BACKGROUND:
In the summer of 2010 I was invited to write an article for Michael Moore.  I was in production on a documentary I was calling “Not Welcome” regarding the backlash against construction of a 53,000 square foot mega mosque in the middle of the American Bible Belt.  His endorsement gave me a huge boost with the Hollywood crowd.  Having worked in the entertainment industry for years, this was not my first film, but it was to be my first documentary.  So when I went on to write a few more articles for MichaelMoore.com the wheels were greased for me to get into a room with the right people, and secure the finishing funds I needed to complete post production.  And if there is one thing Hollywood loves (almost as much as congratulating itself), it’s the story of an innocent minority group being wrongly persecuted, preferably in the South, especially if the antagonist happens to be the Religious Right.  And as my editor and I assembled the first 25 minutes, of the 300 hours of footage shot, this film promised to deliver just that.  “Wow, I really wasn’t expecting this.  I would like to thank the members of the Academy, Michael Moore and the Prophet Mohammed for making all of this possible…” 

But then the winds changed direction.  It seems that fate had issued a Fatwa against my perfect plan.  The Arab Spring sprang into action and ruined everything, as it degenerated disappointingly into the Islamist Winter.  It was as if I had been slapped upside the head by reality, thus knocking off my blinders and causing me to ask a lot of inconvenient questions.  I was left wondering if there was perhaps more to the story of so-called “revolution” than what had been portrayed on Al Jazeera and “Democracy Now with Amy Goodman”.  You can read more about this in an article I wrote for Front Page Magazine here: “The High Price of Telling the Truth About Islam”.

I took a second and more critical look inside Islamic scripture, comparing and contrasting the countless acts of Islamic terrorism, with specific commands to carry out these violent and barbaric attacks on innocent infidels as ordered in the Koran, the Hadith, and the Sunnah.  And after much difficult soul searching I had realized I was making more than just a documentary.  I was making a terrible mistake.   So I went back to my backers and told them how I had changed the outline of the documentary, to include a critical examination of the violent dimension that informed so much of the Islamic world today, and throughout history, and how desperately this story needed to be told, and I consequently lost the backing to my film.
As a writer who had written over a hundred articles for The Daily Kos, a liberal blog which receives about a million visitors a day, I wrote 3 articles outlining what I had learned about Islam, it’s execution of homosexuals and how hundreds of millions of women around the world were living under Islamic gender apartheid.  I called attention to this as a human rights issue, human rights being in theory a big concern among Liberal audiences.  The warm reception that followed included being labeled a “bigot” a “right winger” and an “Islamophobe” in the hundreds of subsequent reader comments, demanding that my “hate speech” be banned.  And after that the Islamophobia watchdog site, Loonwatch.com created a link for readers to write directly to the editors of DKOS, demanding my voice be silenced.  And I was immediately banned from ever writing for The Daily Kos.

In the weeks that passed I received many “goodbye” texts and emails from friends letting me know that we were no longer friends.  I saw my name get smeared in print – lies, misquotes, distortions, character assassination.  Loonwatch.com named me the “Loon At Large”

(UPDATE: Since appearing on the Michael Coren show and telling my story about how Loonwatch put my name out on the street in the Islamic world, Loonwatch has since pulled that article from their site.  Thank you very much Michael Coren!).

My friend count on Facebook took a hit.  My blog, which has had over 23 million visitors and  usually receives at least a million visitors per month, got hacked over and over for weeks before my traffic rebounded.   And, many of my subscribers left the site, telling me that I was “spreading intolerance and ignorance”.  On donations and ad revenue I took a massive financial hit.  For so many who had known me for so long, I had become nothing more than an “intolerant hate monger”

PAMELA GELLER:
In the process of defending myself from all of these accusations, in a desperate attempt to distance myself from those names that had become synonymous with “Islamophobia” at least in my circle, I made critical remarks about Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller – comments meant to distinguish myself from the real “hate mongers” but comments that turned out to be uninformed and just simply just not true.  I thought they were true at the time.  But having only recently sipped from the well of knowledge, I had not yet flushed all of the Kool Aid out of my system.

For example, in a Daily Kos piece (before my excommunication for blasphemy) I wrongly lumped Pamela Geller in with Pastor Terry Jones, a religious zealot who preaches burning the Koran.  A simple YouTube search will yield no shortage of remarks made by Geller, stating she opposes the burning of books, all books, and that furthermore she is not anti-Muslim, does not advocate persecution or hatred of Muslims, and even goes so far as to point out that it is in fact Muslims themselves, who are the biggest victims of Islamic violence.  The number of times she has spoken out for the hundreds of millions of Muslim women, who suffer under gender apartheid alone, is evidence that Pamela Geller is not a hate monger, but rather a fearless advocate for human rights – including the rights of Muslims.

It is amazing, the human capacity for seeing only what we want to see.  And it is especially humbling, I can tell you, when one identifies that unattractive quality within oneself.  But the freedom that comes with trading in your cozy conclusions for difficult questions is well worth the cost.  Everything is up for grabs.  You evolve.

Knowing that there are currently hundreds (if not thousands) of liberal leftists in our government running (more specifically -  RUINING) our country through their drunken, propagandized CAIR Kool-Aid stupor should be HIGHLY ALARMING to the majority of the American people.

As the author of the video (that I have shared several times on this blog) had stated regarding Of Mosques and Men: Reflections on the Ground Zero Mosque" :

"Come out of the cave America - it's dark in there."

The Case of Obama’s Ambiguous Birth Narrative

I have been writing about Obama's ineligibility issues for years. But with the release of the so-called "long form birth certificate," in April, 2011, Obama and his cronies probably had hoped to put the issue to rest. Well guess what? The release of that document has only heightened the interest in solving the true story of Obama's birth narrative.

The alleged "Certificate of Live Birth" has been shown to be a forgery - by many experts in the field of determining the authenticity of birth documents!

Perhaps SOMETHING will be finally be done about this after Sheriff Joe Arpaio [read details at first link above] releases the findings tomorrow that he and his Cold Case Posse have accumulated over the course of several months' worth of investigation into Obama's mysterious records. Two important blog posts to read before tomorrow:

1. Cry and Howl: Sheriff Joe to Release Findings About Barack Obama March 1, 2012. Be sure to click on and read the two links provided at the Cry and Howl blog!

2. The Daily Pen Blog spot: Vital Records Indicate Obama Not Born IN HAWAII HOSPITAL (PART 2)

Even though I have been following this issue for some time now, the following important information was brand new to me:

THE LEFT MARGIN

Many have wondered why the left margin of the image of Obama’s alleged 1961 “Certificate of Live Birth” is curling away under a digital “clipping mask”. An obvious explanation used by Obama’s defenders is that it was copied from a book of bound certificates in the main office of the Hawaiian department of Health.

However, this explanation does not explain two very significant facts about the image which, when considering vital statistics reporting methodology, render the certificate image a fraudulent document unqualified to determine the eligibility of Barack Obama to be President.

First, the overlay of what appears to be security paper was used around the visible part of the document image to conceal the lower portion of the document which contains birth metrics, health information and coding guidelines about the specific circumstances of the birth and the child’s biography after birth. For example, the author of this story has an original birth certificate which contains notations in this portion of the document indicating a change in paternity five years after his birth.

More importantly, however, the left margin of the document is not visible because the forgers wanted to conceal the codes scribed in that area. A few of these numbers are visible. However, the ones that are only partially visible or concealed are the ones which reveal the codes reported about the location and circumstances of paternity of the birth.

The numbers 6, 2 and what looks to be the flourish of a 5 appear next to the entry boxes for parental information.

The possibility of the presence of a “5” in this location has foreboding implication with regard to Obama’s birth. According to the Vital Statistics Instruction manual, this code means “Other” with regard to “Type of Location of Birth” – Code Outline shown here:

Essentially the presence of this code in any case is an indication of a Place of Birth other than a Hawaii Hospital and other than by a Hawaiian Medical Doctor.

The presence of the “6” next to the “Place of Birth” item is most troubling. As the second digit of the number 56, the 1961 VSIM uses the number 56 to code the location of births which occur outside of the United States but which are processed “in conjunction with” the county of registration. The states and the District of Columbia are numbered in alphabetical order from 01 to 51 while Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, and the Panama Canal were 52 through 55, respectively. This left the number 56 as the code for classifying “Remainder of the World”. This can be found in the 1961, 1962, 1968, 1977, 1993 and 1999 versions of the VSIM. In 1993, number 55 became the code for New York City because of its large birth volume it was classified as its own major birth rate statistical reporting area.

Essentially, this means the code tape file contains two spaces for the state to record a geographic code for the foreign location of the occurrence of the birth without showing that location on the certificate for a resident mother.

The presence of a “2” is probably the second digit of “12” which is the indication of the VSIM geographic code for Hawaii as the state of the Mother’s “Usual place of Residence”.

There is MUCH, MUCH MORE EVIDENCE THAT SHOWS HOW THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE IS A FORGERY AND HOW THE PURPOSEFUL ELIMINATION OF THE LEFT HANDED MARGIN WAS DONE TO DECEIVE THE PUBLIC!!!


Note this portion:

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAYUpon analysis of Obama’s alleged “Certificate of Live Birth” image by former Social Security Administration record investigators consulted for this report, artifacts appearing on the document indicate this document is not a reliable source of identity verification. They provided this assessment for our report:

“Mr.Johannson,

Thank you for inquiry regarding the contents of the document image you submitted on February 8th, 2012. We are familiar with the controversy surrounding this particular document and have included our best possible evaluation without access to the corroborating information.

ITEM 1: The image of Obama’s alleged 1961 “Certificate of Live Birth” posted to the internet in April, 2011, contains handwritten (penciled) numeric and alphanumeric characters which confirm that preliminary coding marks were applied to the document.

On authentic certificates filed by the Health Department, these penciled notations were used on the original, paper version of the record kept by the State-level office of the Department of Health after a photo static copy was provided for medical record archives to the facility shown on the certificate. Moreover, they were applied to even-numbered certificates in 1961, which were those from which statistics were reported to the National Center for Health Statistics. Typically, they are not found on an original certificate which was prepared by an attending medical authority present at the live birth event because the medical personnel do not report natal statistics, the state registrar’s office does.

Therefore, an official copy of the hospital version of this same document in coordination with the code file tape created by the National Vital Statistics office will confirm whether the birth information is accurate between the four agencies who processed it, including the local registrar office, the state registrar, the hospital and the U.S. Vital Statistics office in the appropriate reporting region. All should have copies of this record.

If Obama’s birth occurred in 1961, it would be subject to the NCHS reporting methods and coding for that year. Therefore, his birth statistics would have been tabulated in the State office but not necessarily recorded and published by the NCHS statistics report. However, if the tape file record of his birth were discovered in the NCHS tape file archive, this would be contradictory to what we have been told about his birth.

Therefore, according the SSA panel, it is unlikely the certificate would not have been coded with preliminary notations in 1961, since vital statistics were coded from microfilmed images and translated to punch cards which contained approximately 150+ digit spaces for each birth registration. These cards were tediously completed, in blocks of 20 birth records, with a majority of the records being required, by contract with the NCHS, to be completed by July 31st of the following year.

Beginning in 1960, punch cards were hand-fed into a scan machine and the resulting data was then stored on a magnetic tape reel by the NCHS. According to the official U.S. Vital Statistics System Development handbook, this procedure required several hours for each record and was in effect under Hawaii’s contract with the NCHS until 1971.

ITEM 2: It is important to remember that births are just one of four types of more than 40,000 vital records which required processing, copying and filing in Hawaii. State vital records registration officials simply could not afford to spend time applying preliminary handwritten codes to vital records which were not going to be included in the annual reporting block.

Adding to the challenge, unlike today’s electronic system, the initial coding process was manually performed in 1961. With more than 40,000 records in need of processing and microfilming, why would a municipality waste resources to do unnecessary accounting? The resources were simply not available to do this for all the births, deaths, marriages and divorces in the time frame required, so the even-numbered reporting method was introduced. Besides, the NCHS contract with the states paid only a few cents per record to the (state) Health Department. If these penciled numbers appear on a vital record, the content of that record was reported as part of the even-numbered certificates to the NCHS as required.

Based on this, it is conclusive that Obama’s certificate number is either fraudulently assigned by forgers, or it was changed to an odd number after the original contents of the document were entered in order to prevent inquiries into Obama’s record file tape. Under either circumstance, information about Obama’s birth is being intentionally obscured in order to hide his actual natal history and the negative impact it would have on his eligibility to be president.

It is our recommendation that the identity of this individual, including his natal history, as well as all major forms of primary identification including social security number, education records, licenses and travel records be formally and thoroughly investigated.

Best Regards,


Records and Claims Investigations office
Social Security Administration

Based merely on the fact that Obama’s stated father, as shown in the image of this alleged 1961 Certificate of Live Birth was not an American citizen, Obama is not eligible to president of the United States. However, the NCHS coding and vital statistics reporting methods have left more than ample artifacts to formally investigate the truth about this most ambiguous shell of a man.

Perhaps it’s time for America to embrace the truth, engage the consequences of this deception and lies and, then…move on.

Rick Warren Goes Over the Deep End - Again!

I have written about Rick Warren's heresy in several blog posts in the past, however, the new revelation about Warren's error-laden Chrislam beliefs take his apostasy to a whole new level!

Warren is an example of why liberal Christianity DOES NOT WORK. It is NOT BIBLICALLY BASED, and therefore, does not adhere to the truth of God that is represented by His Living Word - our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ - or the written Word of God - the Bible.

There is such a thing known as outreach to people of other faiths. But when a lie is being promoted as the basis of such an "outreach," there is no absolute truth to hold it together!

Please educate yourself if you think that Warren is correct in his thinking that "Christians and Muslims worship the same God." THEY DON'T - PERIOD!!!. Please read the first post by clicking on this LINK.

There are several additional posts to read under the first one at that link above which might further cement in any reasonable mind all information why it is impossible for Christians and Muslims to be considered as worshipping the same God!

I present a copy of the original post on this page. In addition to my explanation, there are two links (at the bottom of this page) to excellent essays done by Bill Muehlenberg of CultureWatch:

Why Muslims Don't Worship the Same God as Christians

While sharing comments at Sarah Palin's Face Book page, I pointed out to a young man who had written that "Muslims, Jews, and Christians all worship the same God" that he is incorrect. I referred him to an essay I had written back in 2006 at my Talk Wisdom Discussion Forum. I thought that it might be a good idea to share it on this blog so that when you encounter people (even some Christians!) who state that "we all worship the same God," you can be armed with the truth.


Do Muslims and Christians Worship the Same God?

The short answer is no! The bottom line is this - Hal Lindsey does not believe that Muslims worship the same God as Christians and Jews and I agree with him and his reasoning on the subject.

However, I also realize that some Christians do differ on this issue. In fact, President Bush once stated (incorrectly, IMO) that Islam worships the same god as Christians and Jews. I disagree and I will share many reasons that will explain to you why this is not possible.

First, a summary:

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heavens glory and will return again, to earth, to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. (Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; John 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14, 15; 1 Corinthians 15:3,4; Romans 1:3,4; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Timothy 6:14,15; Titus 2:13.)

The Koran denies that Jesus is the Son of God although it describes the virgin birth in a passage similar to Luke 1:26-38 (Surah 3:45-47) (Note: Surah is in the Koran).

The Koran calls Jesus a prophet, equal to Abraham, Jonah and others, but places Him in rank far below Muhammad. Surah 4:171 says that "Jesus...was only a messenger of Allah...Far is it removed from His transcendent majesty that He should have a son."

Muhammad totally ignored the claims that Jesus made about Himself. Jesus said, for example:

"I and the Father are one" (John 10:30).
"Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father" (John 14:9).
"Before Abraham was born, I am" (John 8:58).

The Bible also states that God Himself called Jesus His Son (see Matthew 17:5).

Demons trembled as they recognized the Son of God (see Matthew 8:29).

Doubting Thomas acknowledge Him as "my Lord and my God" (John 20:28).

John identified Christ as the author of creation (John 1:1-5); so did Paul (Col. 1:15-17) who also said, "In Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form" (Col. 2:9).

The only way to deal with this kind of evidence is to do what Muhammad did - simply ignore or deny it. Islam denies Jesus Christ's Deity so they do not worship the same 'god' in their god of Allah.

Next, a response to someone who thinks Allah and Yahweh are one in the same.

In response to an individual who was attempting to equate Allah with Yahweh, I wrote the following response and included some comments from others who agree with my stance:

What Muslims believe:

"Christ, the son of Mary [note: not as the "son of God"], Was no more than A Messenger; many were Messengers that passed away Before him [here, equating Jesus with mere Messengers, or perhaps prophets, but certainly not the Son of God]. Sura 5:75, Abdullah Yusef Ali, 10th ed. reprint, 2001.

"The similitude of Jesus Before Allah is as that of Adam; He created him from dust . . . ". Sura 3:59. A subsequent "created" man, like Adam. Not God.

What Christians believe:

However, "And the angel [being Gabriel, the same angel that allegedly dictated the "Holy Koran" to Muhammad] answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35, KJV).

The Scriptures refer to Christ as "the seed of the WOMAN," knowing that no woman has any seed. The seed has to come from the male; Christ, as the Word incarnate (John 1:14), in an INCORRUPTIBLE SEED (1 Pet. 1:23) not like unto "corruptible MAN" (Rom. 1:23). Not like Adam, a created man who was not the son of God.

Thus, it comes down to a choice between these two disparate positions.

Either God showed up in the flesh, or he did not.

At this point in history, that makes you either believe God's inspired Scriptures testifying of himself in the flesh, or Allah's declaration that he did not visit in the flesh nor will he return once again.

The Koran indicates there WAS AND IS NO SON OF GOD in the flesh at any time. Muhammad thus cuts off the Isaac line through David to Jesus by God acting through Mary, and substitutes the illegitimate Ishmael to substitute himself for Jesus Christ as the New Testament "Comforter".

Jesus would then have been the son of Joseph (a corruptible man, dead and buried without resurrection), and therefore could not be the Son of God.

What does that make Muhammad?

I realize that some readers will regard this as harsh. I am just sharing the truth of the matter.

We are warned about such non-scripture by Paul when God cursed Muhammad (and any angel with whom he was consorting) for preaching "another gospel" (Gal. 1:8-9).

Below, are more differences that I have gathered through other's postings. (I will include first names or screen names only)

1. Muhammad sought earthly power and riches, including women from conquest. Jesus taught us that the Kingdom of Heaven is not of this world, and he gave up His life, via a gruesome Roman execution, so that we all might live again in the Kingdom of heaven, with all the angels and saints. And a final human act of murder and self-destruction will not gain one access to that Kingdom of Heaven, much less 72 dark-haired perpetual virgins. No, allah and God are quite different beings, with different requirements for believing in them. (contributed by John)

2. No Muslim believes that Jesus Christ in the trinity is one with God and God. Therefore they do not worship the same God. Allah does not reflect John 1:1 at all. Hence the reason one can not preach the teachings of Christ around Mecca. (contributed by Merle)

3. It is TOTALLY ILLOGICAL to say the god of Islam and God of the Jews and Christians are one and the same. Islamic scripture KORAN and Hadith is rife with Allah's disdain and hate of the the Jews and Christians. It is IMPOSSIBLE for God to hate the people (Jews and Christians) He created. Therefore Allah of Islam and God are not the same. (contributed by Paul)

4. To base arguments on the superficial use of the word 'God' misses the mark entirely. Even cults use the word 'God'. It is true that Judeo-Christian and Islamic beliefs have Abraham in common. From there though, Islam takes every Judeo-Christian belief and turns it upside down. (contributed by Terry)

5. Perhaps I can fill you in on some key points as to why I have trouble (with anyone who holds the opinion) that Allah is the same God of the Bible - God of Christians and Jews. First we need to be careful to resist our natural urge to claim common ground for the sake of unity and peace. Instead we need to look at historical facts and religious aims to see whether such commonality is possible. And we need to proceed LOGICALLY. The question we are asking is : Who is Allah? Here we are asking who Allah, the God of Islam is. We are asking who is the Allah god muslims worship to?

The Koran points out that Allah is the same as the God of Jews and Christians ( "the People of the Book") And muslims claim their faith as "the faith of Abraham" in one Creator God. So the question is settled? Well, not so fast!

As well meaning religious people, we like to see unity and peace. And we like to establish commonality with our neighbors. However to answer this key question, we need to be more objective. So let's clear up our mind and approach this question from the standpoint of a new muslim convert who is being introduced to Islam. What is the most important statement of Islam? It is the Shahada: That there is no deity but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet. This all important pledge states that Allah is the only God there is and Muhammad is his prophet. If you say this before two witnesses, you become a muslim. This all important claim of Islam DEFINES Allah.

Note that there are two parts to Shahada - "Allah is [the] only God that exist[s]" and "Muhammad is Allah's prophet". In other words, Shahada states "There is only Allah" but who is this god, Allah? "Allah is Muhammed's God" because Muhammad is his spokesman (prophet).

So the fundamental axiom of Islam DEFINES who Allah is. Allah is the God Muhammad worshipped! And this is a point that ALL MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS, AND JEWS CAN AGREE ON.

Allah is the god Muhammad worshipped. This is how we should clarify who Allah is. This statement: "Allah is the God Muhammad worshipped daily" is a statement we all agree on.

Now we examine cold and hard historical facts.Was Muhammad ever a Jew? Nope. Was Muhammad ever a Christian? Nope. In fact, historians would agree that Muhammad was an Arab pagan who worshipped at Kaaba temple of Mecca. And he worshipped the supreme deity of Arab paganism - Allah of Mecca. We know that there is connection between the God of Christians and the God of Jews BECAUSE JESUS HAS BEEN A JEW AND SO WERE ALL EARLY CHRISTIANS. We can safely say that Christianity is a branch, if you will, out of Judaism because all early Christians were Jews and Christians accept Jewish Old Testaments VERBATUM.

By the same key criteria, we cannot say that Islam is a growth out of Judaism nor Christianity. Muhammad had never been a Jew nor a Christian and muslims do not accept the Bible verbatum. Instead Islam AIMS TO REPLACE THE BIBLE WITH THE KORAN. Because they believe that the Bible is full of errors while the Koran is the perfect book from the Heaven.

So let us summarize the above point why Allah is not the same as the God of Christians and Jews.

a. "Allah is the God Muhammad worshipped." If you want to talk Islam, you have to start from the Shahada. If you are unwilling to see the meaning of Shahada, we are talking at cross purpose. Shahada says that Allah is the God Muhammad worshipped and he is the only God there is. All other deities are idols to be denied and oppressed. (This is a point that all muslims, Christians, and Jews can agree on. )

b. Muhammad was an Arab pagan who worshipped at Kaaba temple of Mecca. (This also is a point that all can agree on. ) He was and never had been a Christian nor a Jew.

c. Therefore, Allah is NOT the God of Christians and Jews. (contributed by Jay)

I am very politically aware of what is going on in the world today. In fact, here in America, as long as your god is just a word, the world has no problem with you. However, mention the name of Jesus Christ and they do have a problem. Why is that? Why is Jesus so offensive to those who do not believe in him?

Perhaps you already agree that we Muslims and Christians do not worship or serve the same God.

Christians believe in the Trinity (I John 5:7). God the father, God the Son (Jesus), and God the Holy Spirit.

Jesus said, "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30).

"If you have seen me you have seen the Father" (John 14:9).

In non-theological words, Jesus is God revealed to us in the flesh. Muslims do not believe in the same god, that is the God of the New Testament Bible. Let's just call it like it is. People must not try to trivialize our differences for the sake of peace.

When I was debating an individual about this topic, at the very beginning I had stated, "Since you are using a book - Koran - that I view as an improper addition to the Bible, anything I might say to rebut your allegations will probably not be accepted by you.

I do not say that the Koran is an improper addition to the Bible with a mean-spirited goal, it is just the truth as I see it being a born-again Christian. The Bible gives us a double warning in Revelation 22:18,19 not to add nor subtract from what is written, therefore, any book written after Revelation would be adding (and, in some cases subtracting, according to what is written in them) to God's Word which we are told not to do according to these verses."

With that said, I will share a few points regarding his dismay when I called Ishmael illegitimate.

I am currently in the middle of a Bible study on the book of Genesis. Here is a partial recap of chapter 16:

Here we find Sarai and Abram frustrated by the passing years without a son. So they devise their own strategy for "fulfilling" God's promise--and reap the consequences. Read Genesis 16.1.

It has been ten years since Abram and Sarai entered Canaan. What action does Sarai how suggest (16:1-2)?

Suggested Abram sleep with her maidservant to build a family through her.

2. What do you think this indicates about their trust in God?

They doubted that His promise would be fulfilled without them stepping in and "helping it along" the way. Sarai influenced Abram to commit adultery. (Another point to recognize is the name changes of both Sarai and Abram to Sarah and Abraham before Isaac was born; but even more significantly this occurred after Ishmael was born. A name change in Scripture is quite significant in that it indicates a great change in the path of the person. We see this in the New Testament when Saul was renamed Paul after his encounter with Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus and thus his conversion from not only just Judaism, but from being a persecutor of Christians to becoming one of the greatest apostles for Christ!)

3. How can our impatience with God's timetable lead us into unbelief and even disobedience?

It led to the sin of adultery in order to get the child they so desperately wanted. In fact, God did come through later with the conception and birth of Isaac.

7. Ishmael means "the God who hears." What does that reveal about the outcome in 16:15-16?

The Lord heard the child and Hagar's misery. Even though He told her the good news that He would increase her descendants so that they would be too numerous to count, He also told her the bad news; that Ishmael would be Gen 16:12- "And he will be a wild man; his hand [will be] against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren."

This is indicative of the hostility we have seen between Arabs and Jews throughout the centuries. We also see it in the radical fringe of Arab/Muslim terrorism going on around the world. (This is not to say that ALL Arabs/Muslims are terrorists because of course they all are not, but to point out that the hostility predicted in this Biblical account has come to fruition down through the generations and can be seen today as a result of this prophetic description of Ishmael in Genesis 16:12.)

I WILL REPEAT FOR ABSOLUTE CLARITY. I AM NOT SAYING THAT ALL MUSLIMS/ARABS ARE TERRORISTS!

In Chapter 17 we see that God's one and only covenant is revealed through Isaac. I have already included the Bible verses in previous posts.

Lastly, at my Bible study this past Tuesday, we ran across the following verse that reveals an astonishing truth about which son God Himself recognized as Abraham's "only son."

In Genesis Chapter 22 verse 2 we read:

"Then God said, "Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about."

Of course, we know that God provided a substitute for Isaac at the last moment by providing a ram caught in in a thicket by its horns (verse 13). This was a foreshadowing of the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the sins of mankind at the cross.

But notice also that God said that Isaac was Abraham's only son. Thus, we recognize Isaac's line in succession to Jesus Christ, not Ishmael's line of descendants.

Update on 3/4/12:

Rick Warren's Tower of Babel

Most important points:

One critic has accurately commented that rather than obeying the Great Commission and creating disciples of the Jesus of the Bible, Warren is “building a Tower of Babel that leads to nowhere.”

I would agree in that when Christian groups join together with other groups that have such fundamentally divergent goals and doctrines, the danger is always compromise. Throughout the Old Testament, the commandment of God to the Israelites was to never enter into agreements, covenants or marriages with the surrounding peoples, lest the Israelites would find themselves led away to worship other gods. In such a post-modern culture, these concepts may sound amazingly intolerant, but the wisdom of the Lord’s proscription against treaties and partnerships is seen in Warren’s agreement not to evangelize his Muslim “friends” and co-laborers for mutual social causes.

The commandment is no less pressing today. The concept of holiness biblically has always revolved around the idea of separation. The Lord takes covenants, agreements and partnerships very seriously and commands us not to enter into partnerships with those who possess such antagonistic views toward the most essential biblical doctrines of the Trinity, the Incarnation and the Divine sonship of Jesus. Beyond this, while the ultimate emphasis of biblical hope is messianic, looking for the return of Jesus, Muslims await another Jesus who returns to literally abolish Christianity. If Warren was pursuing friendships for the purpose of evangelism, I would openly stand with him in this goal. But I think it is clear that Warren is pursuing an agenda far more in line with the spirit of the age than with the goals of the early Christian Church.

But Medearis and other critics of the concept of “Christianity” fail to consider 1 Peter 4:16-17 where the apostle made the following very clear statement: “However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?”

Beyond this, Jesus’ commandment to baptize and make disciples in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is an unequivocal call to make converts who make public confessions and identify with a visible community and a specific creed.

While some may argue that Rick Warren’s efforts are in line with what they understand to be the mission of the Church, the slippery slope is seen in syncretistic expression and practices of the Insider Movement, which may truly be called “Chrislam.” While Warren and numerous other well-meaning Christian(?) missionaries who endorse and practice the C5 or Insider methodology believe that they are serving Jesus, their methods always lead to dishonesty, blurring the lines of truth, compromise and eventually outright heresy.

Critics of this blog may ask why I bring up such topics as this one. The answer is because of what is written as a warning in Jude:

Jud 1:16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling [words], having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.


Jud 1:17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;


Jud 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.


Jud 1:19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.


Jud 1:20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,


Jud 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.


Jud 1:22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:


Jud 1:23 And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.


Jud 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,


Jud 1:25 To the only wise God our Saviour, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

Mar 13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if [it were] possible, even the elect.


Mar 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

2Ti 2:10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.


Mat 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.


1Pe 2:6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.


1Pe 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe [he is] precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,


1Pe 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, [even to them] which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.


1Pe 2:9 But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:


1Pe 2:10 Which in time past [were] not a people, but [are] now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

Montesquieu's Roadmap for Our American Constitution

In my last blog post - A Founding Father's Quote for Election 2012, I found a quote from Montesquieu written descriptively below the word origin of "vice."

Word Origin & History

vice
"moral fault, wickedness," c.1300, from O.Fr. vice, from L. vitium "defect, offense, blemish, imperfection," in both physical and moral senses (cf. It. vezzo "usage, entertainment").

"Horace and Aristotle have already spoken to us about the virtues of their forefathers and the vices of their own times, and through the centuries, authors have talked the same way. If all this were true, we would be bears today." [Montesquieu]

This morning, I reached chapter 5 in Mark Levin's book "Ameritopia: The Unmaking of America" which covers the writings of Montesquieu. It is amazing to see how the warnings contained in this chapter fit so well with describing the current gangster government under Obama.

Before I get to that chapter, I have to share something I saw on O'Reilly last night. Producer Jessie Waters attended the Academy Awards on Sunday night. He stood on the "red carpet" and approached several "celebrities" to ask them political questions. Apparently, Cameron Diaz was heard saying, "I don't do Fox News." But George Clooney was willing to speak with Mr. Waters. Jessie asked George if he thought that Obama was doing a good job. Clooney answered, in a liberal leftist predictable way, that he thought Obama was doing a good job. As Clooney started to depart from the microphone Jessie was holding, he also said, "and it's President Obama." The look on Clooney's face as he walked away but continued to look at Waters didn't even need to be analyzed by a body language expert. It was a look of disdain, disgust, and contempt. All of that because Waters disrespected Obama by not giving him the proper label that Clooney thought he should have. But do you recall how Clooney and the rest of the Hollyweird crowd denigrated, trashed, disparaged and cursed about President George W. Bush? How quickly they forget that "respect" mantra when they are spewing their vile comments against a Republican President. Hypocrisy - Clooney is thy name.

Waters didn't verbally bash Obama. No! All he did was make the "mistake" of not saying his current title - and THAT was disrespectful in Clooney's mind? Give me a break!!

What's more, O'Reilly agreed with Clooney (sort of) that Obama should be given respect because of the position he holds. Tell me Bill, would that have applied to Hitler too? It isn't about the position one holds that deems what kind of respect should be given - it's about whether or not that person's deeds in the office deserve respect!

I'm sure that there have been MANY video clips of O'Reilly just calling Barack by his last name. So...should O'Reilly call himself out on that?

I think that it is humorous to see Fox News anchors fall all over themselves because Presidential Candidate Rick Santorum called Obama, "a snob." I'm sure that the crazies at MSNBullCrap are apoplectic over it!! But again, the media of mass deception called President Bush every derogatory name you could imagine, but THAT was OK?? Hypocrisy, MSNBC is thy name!

Let's look at the definition of that word and see if it fits Obama:

snob   /snɒb/ Show Spelled[snob] Show IPA
noun
1. a person who imitates, cultivates, or slavishly admires social superiors and is condescending or overbearing to others.
2. a person who believes himself or herself an expert or connoisseur in a given field and is condescending toward or disdainful of those who hold other opinions or have different tastes regarding this field: a musical snob.

Word Origin & History

snob

1781, "a shoemaker, a shoemaker's apprentice," of unknown origin. It came to be used in Cambridge University slang c.1796 for "townsman, local merchant," and by 1831 it was being used for "person of the ordinary or lower classes." Meaning "person who vulgarly apes his social superiors" arose 1843, popularized
1848 by William Thackeray's "Book of Snobs." The meaning later broadened to include those who insist on their gentility, in addition to those who merely aspire to it, and by 1911 had its main modern sense of "one who despises those considered inferior in rank, attainment, or taste."

I think Rick hit the nail directly on the head!  The term "snob" certainly does describe Obama as:

"2. a person who believes himself or herself an expert or connoisseur in a given field and is condescending toward or disdainful of those who hold other opinions or have different tastes regarding this field: a musical snob." and
"one who despises those considered inferior in rank, attainment, or taste."

Recall when Obama was fundraising with millionaires in San Fransisco prior to the 2008 election and he was caught on tape referring to people in Pennsylvania with disgust, labeling them hicks who "cling to their guns and Bibles?" I think that the term "snob" fits Obama quite well. But it certainly isn't the only derogatory description that he deserves!  Also recall how Obama disparaged the TEA Party protestors, but embraced the Occupy Wall Street protestors; many of whom killed, raped, pillaged and destroyed their surroundings.  Now Obama and his thugs have gone one step further, having the IRS target TEA Party groups.

Back to the topic.

I would like to share a few paragraphs from Levin's Ameritopia that are written in Chapter 8  which is entitled, "Charles De Montesquieu and Republican Government."

Montesquieu wrote of the nature of governments. "There are three kinds of government: REPUBLICAN, MONARCHICAL, and DESPOTIC. To discover the nature of each, the idea of them held by the least educated of men is sufficient. I assume three definitions, or rather, three facts: one,  republican government is that in which the people as a body, or only a part of the people, have sovereign power; monarchical government is that in which onoe alone governs, but by fixed and established laws; whereas, in despotic government, one alone, without law and without rule, draws everything along by his will and caprices"  (1,1,2).

Montesquieu describes the Republican form of government requiring people to vote in elections.

Levin continues:

Montesquieu points out, There is this difference between the nature of the government and its principle:  its nature is that which makes it what it is, and its principle, that which makes it act.  The one is its particular structure, and the other is the human passions that set it in motion" (1,3,1).  He explains, "There need not  be much integrity for a monarchical or despotic government to maintain or sustain itself.  The force of the law in the one and the prince's ever-raised arm in the other can rule or contain the whole."  As for republican government, Montesquieu asserts that "in a popular state there must be an additional spring, which is VIRTUE."  What I say is confirmed by the entire body of history and is quite in conformity with the nature of things.  For it is clear that less virtue is needed in a monarchy, where the one who sees to the execution of the laws judges himself above the laws, than in a popular government, where the one who sees to the execution of the laws feels that he is subject to them himself and that he will bear their weight....But in a popular government when the laws have ceased to be executed, as this can come only from the corruption of the republic, the state is already lost" (1,3,3).  In despotic government, "virtue is not at all necessary to it..." (1,3,8)

Montesquieu saw despotism, including its frequent antecedent, anarchy, as a continuing threat to republican government.  "When that virtue ceases, ambition enters those hearts that can admit it, and avarice enters them all.  Desires change their objects:  that which one used to love, one loves no longer.  One was free under the laws, one wants to be free against them.  Each citizen is like a slave who has escaped from his master's house.   What was a maxim is now called severity; what was a rule is now called constraint; what was vigilance is now called fear.  There, frugality, not the desire to possess, is avarice.  Formerly the goods of individuals made up the public treasury; the public treasury has now become the patrimony of individuals.  The republic is a cast-off husk, and its strength is no more than the power of a few citizens and the license of all" (1,3,3).

I think that the last sentence describes the angst of the informed electorate who now see what Obama and his cohorts are REALLY all about! It all started back when the TEA Party formed in 2009.

Rick Santelli's rant on the stock exchange floor may have spurred on the TEA Party movement, however, ever since that day many more people are realizing the terrible direction that Obama is taking our nation.

Right now, Republicans are in the process of vetting out the candidates for Election 2012. Personally, I think that is a GOOD THING! Anyone who is calling for early selection of a candidate should be held under suspicion of being part of the establishment RINOS who would take this country in the same direction that Obummer has, but at a slower pace. There are progressives in each of the major parties, so we must be diligent to spot the candidate that best represents what the TEA Party stands for.

In the next few paragraphs, we find Montesquieu warning about despotic government:

Montesquieu warned, "In despotic states the nature of the government requires extreme obedience, and the prince's will, once known, should produce its effect as infallibly as does one ball thrown against another.  No tempering, modification, accommodation, terms, alternatives, negotiations, remonstrances, nothing as good or better can be proposed. Man is a creature that obeys a creature that wants. He can no more express his fears about a future event than he can blame his lack of success on the caprice of fortune. There, men's portion, like beasts', is instinct, obedience, and chastisement. It is useless to counter with natural feelings, respect for a father, tenderness for one's children and women, laws of honor, or the state of one's health; one has received the order and that is enough" (1,3,10).

A paragraph later:

It follows that virtue is mostly impossible in a monarchy and nonexistent under despotism, but is crucial to sustain a republican government. "Virtue, in a republic, is a very simple thing: It is love of the republic; it is a feeling and not a result of knowledge; the lowest man in the state, like the first, can have this feeling." However, virtue alone is not enough. "Despotic government has fear as its principle; and not many laws are needed for timid, ignorant, beaten-down people"(1,5,13), but republican government requires fixed, established laws adopted by the representative of the people, which create a culture of support for the republic. "Laws must relate to the nature and the principle of the government that is established or that one wants to establish, whether those laws form it as do political laws, or maintain it, as do civil laws" (1,1,3)

Levin goes on to describe several of Montesquieu's warnings. I am writing just the first sentence of each warning:

1. Montesquieu warns of the tyranny of concentrated power resulting from either unjust laws or the application of laws unjustly, and the anarchy of radical egalitarianism that leads to despotism.

2. Montesquieu also fears the destructive consequences of excessive taxation of liberty.

3. Montesquieu also viewed commerce as essential to the character of republican government.

4. Montesquieu explained that unlike the poor in republican government, who in freedom can better their circumstances, in despotic states the poor have no hope.

5. [While discussing industrious men and societies] - Moreover commerce is a natural outgrowth of republican government, where individuals are largely free to make self-interested economic decisions.

6. Montesquieu, always mindful of history's preference for tyranny, argued that political liberty exists within the context of a constitution--a fixed, established law.

7. Montesquieu urged an independent and temporary judiciary in which judges, chosen from the people, strictly adhered to the law.

There is much more to read about Montesquieu's The Spirit of the Laws. We can safely say that it had virtually nothing in common with the utopias in Plato's Republic, More's Utopia, Hobbes's Leviathan, and later, Marx's workers' paradise.

Levin writes:

Montesquieu's greatest concern was with despotism's threat to the individual and his political liberty. He argued for moderate, republican government, where the people choose their representatives and their representatives are prudent and virtuous. Aware of tyranny's resoluteness and the nature of political power, Montesquieu insisted that republics must separate the three powers of government into different branches to ensure they are not united under one person or centralized in one institution.

Furthermore, he emphasized that the law must be stable and predictable, reflective of society's mores, and made not to interfere with the individuals routine except in cases of actual necessity. When disputes arise or violations of law occur, they are to be adjudicated by individuals who are independent of the legislative and executive branches and adhere strictly to the law's meaning.

The majority of the American people have seen Obama wreak havoc against the principles of our Constitutional Republic over the past three years. His attempts to create a kind of utopianism here in America is actually a form of despotism in and of itself! When a political Marxist gets into office, he and his cohorts attempt to fool the public into thinking "he knows what's best." The trouble is, it is THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE of what most Americans want! Americans want LIBERTY, equality properly understood, moderation, tolerance (not approval of aberrant behavior!), and to prosper as individuals in a society of freedom while keeping our traditions alive and well!

Levin closes the chapter:

In The Spirit of the Laws, Montesquieu would provide a road map for the American constitution, in which a system of gevernment is established to represent a diverse and dynamic society, and the individual lives free from the cruelty and domination of others and the government itself.

A Founding Father's Quote for Election 2012

"Human nature itself is evermore an advocate for liberty. There is also in human nature a resentment of injury, and indignation against wrong. A love of truth and a veneration of virtue. These amiable passions, are the "latent spark"... If the people are capable of understanding, seeing and feeling the differences between true and false, right and wrong, virtue and vice, to what better principle can the friends of mankind apply than to the sense of this difference?"

Quote by: John Adams
(1735-1826) Founding Father, 2nd US President
Source: Novanglus, 1775

The more that I see of the final four candidates for the Republican nomination for President of the United States, the more the stark contrast builds between these four men and the would-be dictator, Barack Hussein Obama.

I will admit, none of them are what we might call "the perfect candidate."  We know that no one is perfect this side of heaven.  Only Jesus Christ, in the Incarnation, was the perfect Man.  Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father but by Him!

Our Founding Fathers knew this about Christ.  Most of them were true, Christian believers.  It is for that reason that they wrote the Declaration of Independence - the creed for America to live by.  However, it is also a fact that our Constitutional Republic can only survive if we are led by God-fearing leaders.  Not the fakes like we currently have in leadership from the Democrat party.

As far as the GOP nominees go, I like one candidate more than the others and even find one of the candidates scary concerning his foreign policy attitudes (especially regarding Iran).   But any one of them would be light-years better than Obama!!

John Adams teaches us from this historic quote. This election boils down to:

"...seeing and feeling the differences between true and false, right and wrong, virtue and vice."

What Obama has been presenting our nation is mostly falsehood.  He has wreaked havoc upon this nation with what is wrong in this world.  He has done what amounts to slapping We The People, our military, our economy, our freedoms, our liberty, and our sacred honor as a people with nothing but vice.

Vice - a word that isn't used much today. But it certainly fits when describing the current puppet pResident in the White House, as well as all of his cronies and puppeteers!

Word Origin & History

vice

"moral fault, wickedness," c.1300, from O.Fr. vice, from L. vitium "defect, offense, blemish, imperfection," in both physical and moral senses (cf. It. vezzo "usage, entertainment").

"Horace and Aristotle have already spoken to us about the virtues of their forefathers and the vices of their own times, and through the centuries, authors have talked the same way. If all this were true, we would be bears today." [Montesquieu]

We could all make ourselves busy from now until election day listing the evils of this administration. But what we should focus on now is how to get out of this mess and be sure that Obama is gone come January 20, 2013 (or maybe even sooner).

See some of the efforts to share the truth about Obama:

Doug makes several great points at the end of his post:

If Michelle wanted her audience to share the wealth with the less fortunate, why didn’t she ask them to give the $10,000 to charity instead of accept it on behalf of her husband’s campaign? After all, Team Obama will only burn that money trying to get re-elected so they can continue to pile up an unprecedented debt burden on the “less fortunate” they claim to want to share the wealth with.

I see the Obamas and their cronies sharing a lot of debt with Americans… but the wealth, they keep that between each other.
