For the time will come when men will
not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will
gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears
want to hear. (2 Timothy 4:3 NIV)
The dots are there to be connected. By now you should be
able to see why this administration and the irrevocable harm it has done to
America must be reversed. If you’ve read this and still intend to vote for
Obama, click here.
David Barton recently created, on Wallbuilder.com, a post listing offences
by the current administration and promulgated by President Obama. These
fifty-three offenses are listed in four categories:
(1) numerous records of his attacks on Biblical persons
or organizations; (2) examples of the hostility toward Biblical faith that have
become evident in the past three years in the Obama-led military; (3) a listing
of his open attacks on Biblical values; and finally (4) a listing of numerous incidents
of his preferential deference for Islam’s activities and positions, including
letting his Islamic advisors guide and influence his hostility toward people of
Biblical faith.
This blog is the second of four parts. Stay
tuned for Part 3.
2. Acts of hostility

- June 2011 – The Department of Veterans Affairs forbids references to God and Jesus during burial ceremonies at Houston National Cemetery. 17
- August 2011 – The Air Force stops teaching the Just War theory to officers in California because the course is taught by chaplains and is based on a philosophy introduced by St. Augustine in the third century AD – a theory long taught by civilized nations across the world (except America). 18
