Political Correctness

Political correctness in the face of terror threats is a fool’s mission!

Radical Islamic Terrorism has struck San Bernardino County.  This Monday morning the Board of Supervisors trotted out to address the carnage that occurred on their watch last Wednesday.  There were expressions of sympathy for the families of the victims and deserved praise for the community first responders who gave assistance to the victims.  All of this is well and good but there was no semblance of accountability.  Was the attack so unexpected that no one except the terrorist couple be held responsible for the deaths of our neighbors?  Was it not possible to see this coming?  Have we not been warned? 

Please allow me to place the blame for our national inaction in the face of real danger at a few doorsteps.  The terrorist threats have not been taken seriously because they have been buried in the president’s political correctness agenda.  This agenda has not only filtered through our national government but every state government that is controlled by Democrats.  The agenda says we must not take action to protect the country from radical Islam because we must not offend the American Muslim.  Fourteen Americans died in San Bernardino, thousands have died over the last twenty years, how many more Americans have to die before we hold the Muslim religion accountable?

Islam is the only religion that kills or ever has killed in the name of their God in order to advance their religion among the peoples of the world.  Islam is all about political control whether through peaceful manipulation or violent killings or outright war.  Until America accepts the fact that this militarism is at the core of this religion, we infidels will never be safe.  No appropriate national action to respond to the violent threats will ever be advanced by our Democratic power structure.  No action is not an excuse for possible overreaction.  Nation building in Iraq was an overreaction but no action is suicidal.  Appropriate measures must be taken even when our American Muslim citizens are offended.  If they will not fix their religion, they are accountable.

This opinion will be submitted to the Hi Desert Star newspaper in Yucca Valley California.  Their editor says that they have a corporate policy not to publish opinion that criticizes a particular religion and they have rejected a number of similar opinions. You will have to read this on my blog.  As for their corporate policy, it is rooted in the same political correctness that is enabling the terrorists to kill Americans and the newspaper also makes themselves accountable for the bloodshed.

Indeed, it is a difficult time to be a liberal Democrat, no?

Heeding the Way of Allah

Well, Well, Well, the American Muslim community has a voice after all.  They are upset and scrambling to speak up on every talk show that will entertain their nonsensical honor.  It has taken the words of Republican presidential primary candidate Dr. Ben Carson to get their attention.  Were they upset as their Muslim brothers were chopping off the heads of Christians?  Were they upset when their Muslim brothers dug tunnels into Israel to kill the innocent?  Were they upset when their Muslim brothers planted road bombs in Iraq that killed and maimed thousands of American soldiers?  Were they upset when their Muslim brothers flew passenger loaded airliners into the World Trade Center buildings killing over three thousand Americans?  Were they upset when their Muslim brother, Army Major Nidal Hasan, a highly educated psychiatrist, killed 13 and wounded over 30 of his defenseless Army brothers while yelling Allahu Akbar (Arabic for God is greater than any earthly authority)?

No they were not upset, the silence of the American Muslim community in the midst of these tragedies was, in every instance, deafening.  They were and are guilty of a blind allegiance to a perverted representation of God, the murderous Allah who breeds killers to further world domination.  They have feigned loyalty to America to wait patiently, infiltrating the political process, certain that someday soon, Allah will bring Muslim political dominance to America and a Muslim majority can institute Sharia Law which will make religion a perpetual president.  This is the plan, a plan that has been repeated successfully hundreds of times over the last 1400 years of human history.  There is no plan “B” in the Muslim playbook. 

So what did Dr. Carson say that has finally upset the American Muslim community?  Dr. Carson rightly questioned the fitness of a Muslim believer to be the President of the United States.  Why does this note of caution so upset the American Muslim leadership?  You got it, it is a hindrance to the Muslim plan to capture America, without a Muslim president there will be no executive orders from a dictatorial oval office.  Orders that will trash the American Constitution by instituting a system of Laws that are beyond questioning by any human being.  Without a Muslim president, the Muslim capture of America will be slowed to a crawl but Allah will ever be waiting to make the kill.  The fury of the American Muslim community is perfectly understandable if rightly understood.
 
America, listen and heed what is not said, more than what is said!

The Voice of God to Cain

“Then the Lord said to Cain, why are you angry?  Why is your face downcast?  If you do what is right, will you not be accepted?” (Genesis 4: 6&7)

The first eleven chapters of Genesis are literary devises intended to deliver us a message about God and our human condition.  They are not history for the voice of God is first heard by Abram in chapter twelve and the words of chapter four are most certainly not the words of Moses.  Chapter four is a fictional look back to the first children of Adam and Eve, Cain being the eldest and then Abel. No one was there to document these events so we must look elsewhere for their origin and these twenty six words are the key.

The question we should want to ask of chapter four is who told this story about a God conversation with Cain and Able?  Who tells Cain that a gift from the bounty of the field is not acceptable in the sight of God?  Who tells Abel that his gift of a portion of a kill from his flock, this blood gift was acceptable in the sight of God?  If one takes the words of the text at face value, God is doing the messaging to Cain and Abel but remember this is a story.  The self interest of the storyteller, who links  the voice of God with a justification for a particular religious practice, must be considered when assigning meaning to this passage.

If we accept that God is doing the talking to Cain and Abel, we must believe that God expresses himself and his character to all men through a particular religious organization. If the story was told by religious men in order to cement their power and extend control over believers, religion then becomes the enemy of God and lessens the character of God by binding him to human definitions.  Which is it?  Is chapter four a religious statement or are these the words of God himself?

The decision is for the reader to make but let me argue for a religious understanding of Genesis chapter four.  The religious crowd at least a 1000 years after Abram, gave us this story about the supposed voice of God.

1. The text itself is the best evidence.  If this chapter were only a morality play about the evil of murdering your brother, why is a religious motive assigned to this crime?  The authors of this story were expecting that the telling would guarantee them a place of authority in Judaism by confirming the priestly practice of a blood sacrifice as central to the faith.  God, however, wanted this story in the Bible to sound a warning, a warning that among men, religion kills.

2.  Why has the Bible been preserved over thousands of years, through all manner of calamities and adversaries?  Is the purpose of Scripture to engage men with God or engage us with religion?  From the story of Cain and Abel given to us by the religious crowd we could assume that the job of the religious crowd is to engage God and our only job is to accept their religious cues. How does that sit with you?

3.  Religion not only kills but it begins with dividing and marginalizing some people within our created order.  Those of us who conform to the demands of the religious crowd are deemed to be “acceptable” in the eyes of God. This amounts to little more than a social religious cast system.  The anger and downcast spirit that welled up into the life of Cain is to be expected of any of us who are so burdened by the religious crowd.  The lack of empathy by the God character in the story is apparent as God says to Cain that these feelings are sin crouching at your door, you must control them.  Religion always plays the blame game.

4.  The entire Bible is either a witness to the voice of God or an orchestrated avoidance of the voice of God in the form of a man made religion.  The voice of God in the biblical record is surrounded by facts, people and places that are verifiable in secular history.  The voice of God as given through religion is surrounded by human intrigue, drama, politics and killing in the name of God.  The voice of God is heard in the midst of dire human circumstance and the voice brings rescue or reform or both.  The voice of God as given to us from religion is surrounded by political-social power and money grabbing to the extent that it kills body, mind and spirit. All religions are enemies to the voice, some being a lesser evil than others but there is no religion that pleases God.

The only plausible answer to this argument is that the voice of God in Chapter four was only a useful religious trick.  The actual voice of God actually spoke to Abram, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. The voice remained silent during the four hundred year captivity in Egypt and then spoke to Moses.  Upon reaching Mount Sinai, the people being lead by the voice were chained again by religious bondage lead by Moses who killed thousands of his people because they were having a party.
