    Default Conservative Christians feeling the love

    Any politician's days in office are numbered so cons can't use that excuse. We know better, even if the Faith & Freedom hypocrites don't.

    "At a major event for conservative Christians this morning, a Republican senator joked about praying for President Obama’s “days to be short.”

    Sen. David Perdue, a freshman senator from Georgia, opened his remarks at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority conference by encouraging attendees to pray for President Obama. But, he added in a joking tone, they need to pray for him in a very specific way: “We should pray for him like Psalms 109:8 says: May his days be short,” the senator said, smiling wryly. The crowd chuckled and he moved on with his address.

    The rest of that passage, which Perdue did not recite, reads, “May another take his place of leadership. May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow. May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven from their ruined homes.”

    More vapid liberal PC nonsense that just alienates the mushy middle!



    But there's a war on Christians/family values/Christmas.

    They believe that mumbling magic incantations has an effect on the real world.
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    rac·ist
    rāsəst/noun
    a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

    The things they don't thank their invisible male lover for always amaze me.

    If something good happens, it was Jesus. If something bad happens, it's Obama.

    Obama is the Anti-Christ, I heard.

    Their prayers don't seem to have worked, do they?

    The man is happy and healthy, and as popular as ever.
    Their mumbled incantations were for naught.

    Oh, but that be all... the sacred, infallible word had much more to say about how much hatred should be heaped upon David's enemy...

    109 Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
    2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
    3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
    4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.
    5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
    6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
    7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.
    8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
    9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
    10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
    11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.
    12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.
    13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
    14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
    15 Let them be before the Lord continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
    16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
    17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
    18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
    19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
    20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
    21 But do thou for me, O God the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.
    22 For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
    23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.
    24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
    25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.
    26 Help me, O Lord my God: O save me according to thy mercy:
    27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, Lord, hast done it.
    28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.
    29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
    30 I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
    31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.
    I fail to see anything resembling 'love your enemies' in this chapter. I see hatred and praying for death and misery towards your enemies. Oh, that's right, it is the NEW TESTAMENT that is the only infallible word, even though the son of the flying spaghetti monster said that he came to uphold every single letter of the 'law' (meaning the old testament). Geeesh, this religiosity thing is such a pain in the ass. How about we just say that we should play nice and share? 27 virgins, milk and honey, and nirvana are bait and switch schemes. Didn't you read the AARP report? If it sounds too good to be true...
