truth for thought

I read something deeply disturbing today, strangely enough, while searching for a new Linux distro for my laptop.

Apparently one of the Linux Mint developers, Clement Lefebvre has an issue with those who support Israel in favor of Palestine. I could take up this post talking about personal beliefs, but in reality, what does my personal opinion accomplish in comparison to the truth?

So what is the truth?

The Bible (the true, inspired Word of the Most High God) gives us specifics about who we should be allied with in these dark times as we inch closer to the end of time. we are supposed to pray for peace in Jerusalem. End of discussion. The chosen people are the Jews, and Israel is His nation. Not Palestine, or Turkey, India, Iran, or Afghanistan. So personally, I will never use Linux Mint again as long as racists like Lefebvre are on the team. I understand that Palestine is war-torn, just like the rest of the Middle East, but who started it? Where in history (and don’t bring up the Crusades; that was a one-time thing) did Israel ever endeavor to conquer any other nations. No, Israel has been put down century after century by Muslims with the intent of wiping them out. I don’t care how many Muslims are out there or what it is you think is true, but Israel is the chosen kingdom of God. Ishmael, while he was promised God’s blessings, was not part of the covenant with Abraham. Isaac is the bloodline through which Christ was born.

All I have to say is that I am happy that the blog entry slipped up on the Linux Mint homepage. Now I know what this person believes and can take no part in it myself.

Morning.

While I work off my terribly skewed sleep pattern here at almost 4AM, I found myself watching the movie “Traitor.” While I disagree with the glorification of the main character’s perceived fealty to Allah or whomever, the movie does give some serious insight into the reasoning that followers of Islam use to justify and rationalize the terrible things they do.

That’s why I called this post what I did.

The pinnacle of Islam belief is the greatness of this unseen and unheard god they call Allah. Some scriptures that they believe were inspired by this ‘god’ came from an archangel to the prophet Muhammad. What is very conveniently left out of most descriptions of Islam or the Muslim religion is the fact that many of the tenets of Islam were broken by the professed ‘father’ of the religion. Muhammad had 12-year old girls in his harem and viewed himself above what he professed. The Qu’ran includes numerous passages that refer to unbelievers as a threat the the religion as a whole. Unlike Hitler’s Germany, this includes all non-Muslims. Muslim believers have been involved in some part of every major American war since the American Revolution. One of the first American conflicts with Muslim believers was the near war with the Barbary Pirates. Although you won’t find any new textbooks with this information, much of it can be found in decades-old texts. You’ll notice that the text in the link is from the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica.

The point is that so much effort is put into not ‘offending’ the Muslim world that no one seems to understand that the Muslims have been the offenders for centuries. Many would compare Christianity and Islam as two very similar religions. College religion classes I took tried to compare the two as equal in their religious intensity, although there is always a certain afterthought left of Islam as being the religion of peace. Peace? Tell me how the beheading of unwilling infidels is peaceful?

This brings up another important aspect of the argument between Islam sympathizers and the rest of us.

People often bring up the fact that God ordered the destruction of entire civilizations in the Old Testament. People are so short-sighted and quick to make a point that they forsake any semblance of objectivity. The Old Testament law was far different than post-Resurrection law. Before Christ came, law was all that existed; there was no mercy or forgiveness. After His death and resurrection, belief on Him and acceptance of the gift of Salvation is the only thing that will save one’s life eternally. I don’t recall any sort of “before and after” scenario in the Qu’ran. It’s believe or be killed. There is no middle ground. However, the Qu’ran does give believers the ability to disguise themselves as unbelievers, even to deny Allah’s name to save their own lives. What is that all about? It sounds like a religion of cowards. Whereas the Muslims believe in ultimate conversion or takeover of the entire world (which they lay claim to), the Bible speaks of no such thing.

The Muslim religion believes that accomplishment of their goal is paramount, and ANYTHING that is done to further the ultimate goal is acceptable. It is essentially the anti-America, anti-God religion of so-called peace. Anything is alright for a Muslim to do; the end always justifies the means.

And we have one of them in the White House.

Up to this point I really haven’t understood the creation of America in regard to the actual and full sacrifices that were paid to make Her a free nation. Today I read “The Americans Who Risked Everything” by Rush Limbaugh III. I am speechless. I cannot express the swelling of pride and patriotism that I feel after understanding just what it took to lay the foundation for what we simply view as “life” now. Many of the signers of the Declaration of Independence gave everything, some even their very lives and those of their wives and children. The British were a ruthless, terrible enemy, and their deeds are recorded in some history books as included in some of mankind’s worst. They pillaged, burned, starved, and ruined those who opposed them. Today, the descendants of those tyrants, who many of which have no idea of any historical events beyond their last drinking party, have the nerve and audacity to attack the United States. They have no right. No right at all.

Where this has made an impact on me is in the understanding that even though my anger burns for those who forced our Signers to give that sacrifice, one of the sacred responsibilities of being an American is holding true to the beliefs that they held. Temperance with honesty and justice. Kindness with fealty to the Almighty. Honor to God and Country in reverence of His great Name and for those who gave more than I ever have to allow others to enjoy such freedom and liberty. They thought not of their own, not even their children, so that I could live free.

Fast forward to President Barack Hussein Obama. He says that Rush Limbaugh should not be listened to; he is a dissenter and disrupts the peaceful society we have today. He says we should “make friends” with our enemies. He says that we are no longer at war with extremists from the Middle East, but from right-wing terrorists who are our own citizens.

Truly, we are in a state of turning towards the antithesis of what our Founding Fathers, and our Father in Heaven have laid out for us.

While I do indeed feel deeply for our God and our Country, I must - WE must - remain vigilant to hold fast to the words of our great Sacrificers:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness…”

We must remain steadfast. And in spite of our urge to take extreme action and use harsh words against those who would have our great nation torn down and rebuilt on political correctness and what they misunderstand to be “fairness”, now, more than ever, speaking the truth is critical. Those who believe in and on Christ know that our time is short. We have little time, and that time must be spent in complete obedience and faith. We will not be here much longer, and our chances will be over.

God Bless America, from sea to shining sea. From the mountains to the prairies, to the oceans, white with fog. God Bless America. And God Bless Her people.

Barack Obama says that making friends with our enemies “strengthens our hand.” Mkay. So we make friends with bad guys that have a long history of being bad, and somehow that makes us stronger. Wow. Who knew it took a liberal lunatic with no experience in the White House to come to this conclusion.

Moral of this story in (so you libs can understand it): Friends good, enemies bad. Enemies not friends.

Out.

Well here we are, plunging further into the depths of what many are saying is the end of the United States as some of us know it. Those who feel that the US should adhere strictly to the values and constitutional laws that this country was founded upon will (if not already) start feeling like this isn’t the good old US of A.

Barack Obama has done more to demoralize and deride the US in two months than any other president has done in entire terms.

There is but one truth that you must understand before others can become evident. Truths that are revealed like the recent posting of just how far Bush’s wiretapping extended through the NSA (link) are only allowed to give US citizens a proverbial bone. The stuff we know, we know. It’s everything else that we don’t know that is dangerous. So when your anxiety is roused by the current state of events, beware for answers coming from dubious sources like mainstream media or government press releases.

In this dark hour of mankind where those with an agenda are put in places of power they are far from qualified for, we must be fervent in seeking out the truth - and we must ignore the half-truths and lies that are circulated and released for your benefit. Every time information is released, we should be aware that it is done so to cover up the rest of the story they don’t want us to hear.

So be careful of what you allow yourself to believe. Winston Churchill said, “Truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.”

I often sift through the major lol picture sites like icanhascheezburger.com and engrish.com for my early morning laughs, but having read all my RSS entries today, I tried a new one: punditkitchen.com.

I enjoy the occasional political cartoon or satire, but today I was confronted not with government funnies, but outright Obama worshipping, Bush-bashing imagery. Now every president has his faux pas, some of them humorous. But what I don’t understand is how so many people truly worship Barack Hussein Obama. And long since Bush has taken his leave of the White House, those same people are still rallying with hatred of more than just his policies, but rather him personally.

Let’s contrast the resounding ‘hate’-this and ‘hate’-that rhetoric coming from all sides, including Washington - how can these so-called peaceful people that want harmony and unity which they preach as its own religion - express so much hate for a man who no longer even has any political influence? Hey, listen, if Bush is so bad, he’s out, so fine, leave him alone. Why do they continue to beat the proverbial dead horse? I mean, the savior of all, Barack Obama has been elected president. But these people are never happy. They have an oppressed minority in the White House so after all this time of whining and moaning (and taking free money through government programs, money that you and I have stolen from us under threat of judicial oppression) they still can’t shut the hell up. I mean, ok, fine, you liberal hippies have free love, legalized homosexuality, you can kill your unborn babies and use their parts for research, and affirmative action working for “underprivileged -insert so-called minority group here- owned company” that gets all sorts of unearned perks. So SHUT UP ALREADY. I’ve had enough. You live in the greatest country on the planet and enjoy unheard-of freedoms that Europeans, despite popular opinion, do NOT enjoy, and you still continue to whine and moan about what you don’t have.

One last thing. Capitalism is the fuel that fires this economic machine. Rich CEOs are rich because they worked their asses off to get there. The only reason people bitch about CEOs getting $xx million bonuses or salaries or whatever is because THEY want that salary but want to sit on their fat asses and do nothing. Guess what - HARD WORK is the only remedy for poverty. If you don’t like where you are or what you have, work harder and want it bad enough to get it.

That’s all.

Welcome to truth for thought.

I’ve been feeling the need to blog for quite some time, but time, it seems, is it’s own enemy.

The point of this blog is simply to say what no one else is. My views will be apparent, so I’m not going to spend any time telling you all my personal details. You figure it out.
