A Political Candidate Who is Not Afraid to Mention Jesus

In a time of Christian persecution around the world, it seems that one presidential candidate is not afraid to openly declare his Christian background. I am sure that this will now be a whipping post for those who oppose him.

Ted Cruz spoke at Liberty University and left no doubt of his Christian roots and his love for America and Her founding principles. I suppose this will be considered politically incorrect, but in reality it is a breath of fresh air.

The head of the school has stated that "It is no secret that Convocation is held three times a week and attendance is required, just like class is required for students. No one is expected to agree with every speaker on every point...students can "cheer" or "boo" as they see fit". Speaking on the issue that some in attendance wore "opposing" T-shirts, he remarked; "The fact that some students attended the service wearing t-shirts supporting another potential candidate shows that our students are not indoctrinated; they are free~and encouraged~to form their own opinions about what they hear in Convocation and to express it."

It is in the spirit of diversity that the university presents a variety of speakers to allow the students to hear different viewpoints from all sides, allowing them the freedom to make informed decisions (para-phrased). That in itself is unusual in our times!

Because we are a faith based organization, we take take note when political figures anywhere in the world, disdain~or stand up for~the Christian faith. With so many recent attacks on Christians and their beliefs, it will certainly be interesting to see how the next election in America plays out...Imagine!

Jerusalem Terror Attack~Again!

On 22 October 2014, we posted about the tragic death of three month old Chaya Zissel Braun in a terror attack. She was in her stroller. Her parents were returning from the Kotel when the terrorist with Hamas affiliations deliberately drove his car down the narrow passageway between the light rail stop and the tram itself. People had no escape. Baby Chaya's stroller was hit full on throwing her into the air. She died several hours later.

Once again, a Hamas affiliated Arab has mowed down innocent people. According to police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld, the rampage began at the Shimon Hatsadik light rail stop outside of Sheikh Jarrah  at 12:30 pm:

The terrorist hit four people, killing a border police officer...He then drove 500 meters up the road to the intersection (where a separate terrorist attack took place over the summer), hitting 10 others.

The terrorist then fled the van and attempted to attack innocent men, women and children with a crow bar, but was shot and killed by a police officer. Fourteen victims were rushed to area hospitals for treatment.

Jidan Assad, 38, from the Druze village of Beit Jaan died in the attack. The world press has been reporting (once again) that Israeli police shot an "innocent palestinian" after a vehicle accident.

The video below shows the aftermath~Note that the "innocent" driver was driving on the tram tracks where only the trams travel.

As with baby Chaya, this was a deliberate murder. As is usual the world ignores the facts and concentrates on ways to vilify Israel. To say that Israel is to blame is "stuyot"~a loose translation for stupid. The PA and Hamas have waged a media campaign for years and the world has fallen for it. They smell success and the more Israel is blamed and pressured, the more frequent and vicious are the terror attacks. These are people who only understand fear and power. They are now increasing the terror because they truly believe that the world is going to help them destroy Israel. 

If you think this is "not your problem"~Remember~as it goes for Israel, so will it go for the rest of the free world. It is past time to stop the politically correct pandering...

US Military: Bibles Banned~Ramadan Rules Enforced

You Really Can't Make This Stuff Up!

I found this interesting report on Blazing Cat Fur's blog

The US Air Force banned Christian Gideon’s volunteers from the base in March, saying:

“They can place their literature within our facility, but they are not allowed to stand there and talk with applicants or hand them (the Bibles) out

The question to be asked is: Does this same ban apply to Muslims and their literature on Islam? Take for example, the fact that US military personnel are not only expected to adhere to Islamic practices during Ramadan, they are actually having briefing sessions. From a report in the Stars and Stripes:

...US personnel accustomed to drinking their coffee on the drive to work will have to put that habit on hold for about a month. It’s one of a few lifestyle changes Americans will have to make during the holy month of Ramadan.

...Base cultural advisers have spent the last few weeks conducting Ramadan briefs to educate Americans about the holy month...(Ali) Hassan encouraged personnel to experience Iftar in a Ramadan tent, many of which are set up at various locations around Bahrain during the holy month and welcome non-Muslims.

A few of the Rules to be followed: (Taken from Stars and Stripes):

* Eating, drinking, chewing and smoking in public are civil offenses in some Islamic countries
* Men should wear long sleeves and pants. Women’s sleeves should extend below the elbow and pants or
   skirts should cover the knees.
* Avoid critical remarks about fasting or any religious practice
* Most restaurants will be closed except those in 4 and 5-star hotels
* All consumption of alcohol by US military personnel is prohibited at any off base public venue in the US 
  Navy 5th Fleet Area of Responsibility during Ramadan.

While the rules are not torture, and it is not clear if this will be a blanket policy for all US Military bases, the real question that must be asked is: How much reciprocation do Christians (or any non-Muslims) receive from Muslims~In Our Own Countries? We are expected to respect a culture and views that are foreign, and indeed conflicting with our way of life, yet we must "respect" the foreign culture, while the foreign culture rejects anthing of ours. This is the height of politically correct stupidity.

Christians for the most part, do respect others. Now, it is time for Christians to start demanding that same level of respect for themselves. We are entering into dangerous territory when we allow our own beliefs to be sacrificed in the name of "political correctlness".
