"Jewish law has created mechanisms of forcing you to give charity and help." Post Date: 2007-10-07 01:19:25 by JiminyC

If one wants to see the difference between two legal systems, see below. Recall that if Mukasey gets the Atty. Gen. spot, that means Orthodox Jews will have The Federal Reverse, Homeland Unsecurity and the Injustice Dept. Wrap your head around that: The Fed, DHS and Justice will be run by genuine Jewish nutjobs. DHS and Justice pretty much comprise all of the Federal police agencies and now form the Gestapowitz. Now onto what this nice Jewish lawyer lady has to say: Quote:"The right to be left alone is a basis of Anglo-American jurisprudence, to stand for your rights. The right to privacy and to self-defense is sacred. Jewish law, on the other hand, has created mechanisms of forcing ...
Scandal brewing at Oral Roberts U. Post Date: 2007-10-05 23:11:07 by kiki

TULSA, Okla. - Twenty years ago, televangelist Oral Roberts said he was reading a spy novel when God appeared to him and told him to raise $8 million for Roberts' university, or else he would be "called home." Now, his son, Oral Roberts University President Richard Roberts, says God is speaking again, telling him to deny lurid allegations in a lawsuit that threatens to engulf this 44-year-old Bible Belt college in scandal. Richard Roberts is accused of illegal involvement in a local political campaign and lavish spending at donors' expense, including numerous home remodeling projects, use of the university jet for his daughter's senior trip to the Bahamas, and a red ...
Trust your Intuition Post Date: 2007-10-05 20:47:03 by Horse

Are you aware of your inner voice? Do you pay attention to it? Im not talking about the one who puts you down by the way! Im talking about the one that softly whispers ideas and suggestions to you the kind that the other voice might shout down, crying Are you mad? That requires stepping out of our comfort zone, and that is to be avoided at all costs! (even if the cost is living a life of mediocrity instead of the one of your dreams). Sadly, the latter voice is the one most of us are aware of and pay attention to. The more gentle one, that is our intuition, is often ignored that is if were hearing what it tells us at all. The great pity here is ...
Is There a God - and does it matter? Post Date: 2007-10-05 06:42:57 by Ada

Skepticism, and Beyond We can't know everything about the universe, but the evidence indicates that there is a God, and that he is important to a free society. My guess is that libertarians are about equally divided between believers and nonbelievers. And although it seems possible to me that a person's ideas about God may have no relation to his or her ideas about liberty, most libertarians apparently believe that the two are closely related. That's why debates about religion tend be so acrimonious in our community. Professor Yeager's judicious account of his own thoughts and experiences - an examination of belief from the nonbeliever's point of view - does much ...

A watchdog group alleges that improper evangelizing is occurring within the ranks. October 4, 2007 edition At Speicher base in Iraq, US Army Spec. Jeremy Hall got permission from a chaplain in August to post fliers announcing a meeting for atheists and other nonbelievers. When the group gathered, Specialist Hall alleges, his Army major supervisor disrupted the meeting and threatened to retaliate against him, including blocking his reenlistment in the Army. Months earlier, Hall charges, he had been publicly berated by a staff sergeant for not agreeing to join in a Thanksgiving Day prayer. On Sept. 17, the soldier and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) filed suit against ...

Subscribe Online October 2, 2007 Politics By Other Means Religion and Foreign Policy By CONN HALLINAN "Religion, sometimes, is a continuation of politics by other means," notes Jon Alterman, director of the Center for Strategic and International Studies Middle East division, and it was hard to avoid that thought about last month's conference of Christians United for Israel (CUFI) in Washington D.C. There was Gary Bauer, former head of the right-wing evangelical Christian organization, the Family Research Council, bringing a crowd of 4,000 conventioneers to their feet with a prayer that "the people of Israel-even under American pressure-never give up even one ...
The First Charter of Virginia, Seedbed for the Nation Post Date: 2007-10-01 22:39:38 by AllTheKings'HorsesWontDoIt

The First Charter of Virginia Seedbed for the Nation by Herbert W. Titus, J.D., March 6, 2007 We gather this evening just one-half mile from historic Jamestown Island, Virginia, to celebrate the 375th anniversary year of Henricus Colledge (1619), Inc. While it was not until July 31, 1619, that the Colledge was authorized by the Virginia General Assembly, it is most fitting to commemorate its birth on April 9, 1994. For tomorrow, April 10, is the 388th anniversary day of the First Charter authorizing the founding of the colony of Virginia. Without the founding of the colony, there would obviously have been no college. But the connection between the two is far closer than that. Both were ...

Rev. Billy Graham: A Prince of War Exposed Post Date: 2007-09-30 21:14:49 by Brian S

The Rev. Billy Graham, a darling of the Evangelical Right, has never seen a U.S. war that he couldnt bless. He once advocated that President Richard M. Nixon bomb the dikes in the north of Vietnam. He also criticized the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. for speaking out against the war. A new book, The Prince of War: Billy Grahams Crusade for a Wholly Christian Empire, by Cecil Bothwell exposes the camera-mugging preacher as a serial warmonger. The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same. -- Stendhal The propaganda machine of the Evangelical Christian Right will soon be in counter attack mode. ...

Gospel, LukeSeptember is a month of many remembrances and anniversaries for the world. It is the month in which we remember the 3000 who perished in the US when the events of 9/11 were permitted to occur.

No Separation of Synagogue and State: An ark for the Pentagon By Gal Karniel Haaretz Jan. 11, 2006 An ark (for holding the Torah scrolls) was recently installed in the Pentagon's synagogue, whose ceiling was damaged in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Artist Moshe Gani designed the copper work symbolizing the 12 tribes of Israel that adorns the ark. "I wanted to create something that had both modern art and Israeli art," he says. Gani, 44, is a graduate of the Vitale School of Design (1991) and works in the Danny Henker store in the Bnei Brak Design Center. "I just stood in front of the ark and then the muse came to me," he says. He used to have ...

Teen Faces Punishment For Long Hair Daly Says He Can't Cut Hair Because Of Religious Beliefs Post Date: 2007-09-27 20:40:59 by Zipporah

LEAKEY, Texas -- A Leakey High School senior is being told by his school district to cut his hair, but the student claimed religious values ban him from cutting it. Now, Ben Daly, 18, said he's being punished by the school district. Daly said he is willing to take it all the way to the Supreme Court. In the meantime, the Daly said he has contacted the American Civil Liberties Union. Rastafarianism is a religion created in the early 1900s. "We take citing from Old Testament, stating you're not suppose to cut your hair," Daly said. Daly was told on the first day of school that his hair was too long. He was told to cut it or face discipline. "I talked to the ...

6 Ark. nuns excommunicated for heresy By ANDREW DeMILLO, Associated Press WriterWed Sep 26, 7:44 PM ET Six Catholic nuns have been excommunicated for heresy after refusing to give up membership in a Canadian sect whose founder claims to be the reincarnation of the Virgin Mary, the Diocese of Little Rock announced Wednesday. The Rev. J. Gaston Hebert, the diocese administrator, said he notified the nuns of the decision Tuesday night after they refused to recant the teachings of the Community of the Lady of All Nations, also known as the Army of Mary. The Vatican has declared all members of the Army of Mary excommunicated. Hebert said the excommunication was the first in the diocese's ...

Kevin Kelly reviews The Year of Living Biblically, about a guy who "recently spent a year trying to follow all 700 plus rules he found in the Bible. These rules ranged from the obvious Ten Commandments to the more obscure details of Old Testament laws, which ultra orthodox Jews might follow: leaving side hair uncut, dwelling in huts on certain holidays, strict dietary routines. To give some idea of the physical transformation he underwent, the book offers this photo." From a Newsweek interview: Q: Are you a more religious person as a result of this experiment? A: Well, I don't want to give away the ending, but let's say I started the year as an agnostic, and now I ...

If there is anyone in 4um who is truly interested in understanding the state of Christianity in America, this story should fill in all of the blanks. Provided, of course, that you have actually read the Bible, and do not take someone's word for what it actually says. 21 minutes ago NEW ORLEANS - Episcopal leaders, pressured to roll back their support for gays to keep the world Anglican family from crumbling, affirmed Tuesday that they will "exercise restraint" in approving another gay bishop and will not authorize prayers to bless same-sex couples. The statement mostly reiterated earlier pledges by the church, and it will not be known for some time whether the bishops ...

IS YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD THE MARK OF THE BEAST? Bible predictions have now become true. There is verifiable evidence that all these Bible predictions have become true: A second beast that came up out of the earth, while exercising the authority of the scarlet first beast who raised up out of the sea, upon whose heads is the name of blasphemy, has deceived you into worshiping (with a perjury oath) a substitute god to get a graven Mark, issued by a final world government, symbolically in your right hand and forehead, that you must use as a banking authorization number. This seems so straightforward to me, that I don't dare dismiss the evidence. Could the other elements of this ...

Lebanon is one of the bright spots for us war nerds, and just today as Im writing this, the ol' Phoenicians gave us one of the funniest bombings since Reagan's F-111s sent a GBU straight at Khadafy's daughter's crib.

Are Police Sent By God? Post Date: 2007-09-22 23:04:15 by AllTheKings'HorsesWontDoIt

Are Police Sent by God? Throughout history, oppressive regimes have tried to suppress or outlaw the Bible. In the "land of the free," the adversary is more devious. Bible paraphrases change the Truth of God into lies to support the State's agenda. (See Romans 1:25) The words chosen are not Bible words, they are statists' words. The changes are subtle, but the effects are dramatic. For instance, in the Living Bible paraphrase of Romans 13, we are told that if we refuse to obey the "law of the land," we are refusing to obey God. This is just another clever means of persuading Christians to take up citizenship with the kingdoms of the world. The Living Bible ...
ROMANS 13 - THE TWO MINUTE REBUTTAL [Full Thread] Post Date: 2007-09-22 22:15:01 by AllTheKings'HorsesWontDoIt
69 Comments
The Two Minute Rebuttal Romans 13 Let's say Apostle Paul was telling the Church, "Be subject to the secular government," which at that time was the Roman Empire. And he was also saying, "Rome is not a terror to good works, but to the evil. The Roman centurion does not swing his sword in vain. Therefore, do good and you shall have praise of the same." I pose only one question, Why was Apostle Paul beheaded by a Roman Centurion if he was preaching, "Be subject to Rome"? The Roman government would have no cause to behead him. On the other hand, if Paul was beheaded because he was an "evildoer," why is an "evildoer" writing in our Holy ...
