OBAMANATION, the new Democrat religion

Hark! The arrival of the cultus of Personality

from JoeUser Forums

You know what? Ever since Obama made all kinds of outrageous promises of hope, really hype, the Liberals are in adoration and his flock of sheople have been blind with delight.

Obama is a god in the cult of Personality! A friend recently sent me an article from the Remnant newspaper that has something I'd like to share with you for your consideration.  

The new ten commandments of Obamanation are:

1  I am Barack thy Obama, thou shalt not cling bitterly to the Lord thy God.

2  Thou shalt not take the name of Barack in vain.

3  Remember keep holy the Inauguration Day.

4  Honor thy mother and her partner and honor thy father and his partner.

5  Thou shalt kill (the unborn).

6  Thou shalt not commit chastity.

7  Thou shalt steal from the rich.

8  Thou shalt not bear firearms against the wildlife.

9  Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's quota.

10  Thy shalt covet thy neighbor's wealth.

I tend to listen to my mother when she gives me advice.In fact, I often seek her advice, as well as advice from other elder individuals I know.

Well that's a good thing.  But I wouldn't discount what she's saying about the spiritual because she may very well be onto something.  Of course I believe she is. 

I have three sons.  Two have followed their mom's advice after playing the independant game for a while. They are both college educated and on their own and both have a strong faith in God today.    The third one is just like you.  So I know where you're mother's heart is. 

My gut tells me, that God's not done with you.  Your story's not over.

Well if you look at that source, and clearly read it - then go and look out other sources, he has implied that he is not sold, and will likely not be sold - on revelation based theism.

I admit, I know nothing of Flew other than reading this article and so based on it, I 've got to disagree with your assessment....for what Flew writes in his book indicates otherwise...

Although he says he is now a deist – he hasn’t yet embraced any particular religion – he says he is most impressed by the evidence for Christianity. In his book, There is A God – How the World’s Most Notorious Atheist Changed his Mind – Flew includes an essay by New Testament scholar and Anglican Bishop of Durham N. T. Wright which presents an “assessment of the body of historical fact that underlies Christian theists’ faith in Christ”. Commenting on this essay, Flew says: “In fact, I have to say here that Bishop Wright presents by far the best case for accepting Christian belief that I have ever seen.”

I would venture that the argument will lead him to belief in Christianity.
End of quote

Sorry, but the facts go against you lula.
End of quote

Noooooo, Alderic. 

Flew points out that he is primarily a philosopher applying philosophical reasoning to the findings of science. Along with Einstein he laments that many scientists (like Dawkins) make poor philosophers. At the same time, he says his views are based purely on reason, not on faith. Nevertheless, he is clearly now more open to arguments in favour of the God of religious revelation. At the end of his book you are left with the impression that he is inviting the reader to stay tuned for further developments.
End of quote

I'm staying tuned....very hopeful...because Flew is a philosopher applying philosophical reasoning to the findings of science...wow! That says A LOT! ....Genetics has already brought him to belief in the existence of God and the origins of life.

And then he says he's open to arguments in favor of the God of religious revelation.

Regarding Origins, Special Creation, Christians know that the Holy Bible cannot clash with science. It cannot by definition...for God is the principal Author of Scripture, is omniscient, Truth Itself and Creator of the Universe and all that's in it including space, time and matter at the same time.

I've been a big fan of Flew for years, so - not to sound arrogant - I guess I would the expert here. I'm not entirely certain, but based on my reading of his works and so on, I feel I've got a good grasp. However, I'll conced that I am not the man himself, so I could be wrong.

What I keep seeing from him is: he is open.  This may be where the evidence has led him, but for the most part he isn't completely sold. He's specifically stated that he doesn't believe in revelation theology, and that means that Christianity would have to be ruled out (among other faiths).

Hmmm...that's interesting becasue you initially said:

What I've done is illustrate how Obamation is in stark contrast to God's Ten Commandments. This blog has resulted in a vibrant, civil discussion with 360 comments including yours.

Now, if you wish to continue discussing, fine...but I will delete your comments if you post just to advertise yourself.

PATRIOT UPDATE EXCLUSIVE:
The Ten Commandments According to Obama

© 2009 The Patriot Update. Feel free to circulate this article, but please give credit and link to The Patriot Update!
Click here for the Online Version.

After observing Obama on the campaign trail and during his first six months in office, we have concluded that our President lives and governs according to his own set of “Ten Commandments.” They’re certainly NOT the Ten Commandments you learned in Sunday School. In fact, many are the direct opposite! To prove that our conclusions are correct, you will find a link to source documentation for each commandment on the Patriot Update web site. (Check out our t-shirt version below!)

I. Thou shalt have no God in America, except for me. For we are no longer a Christian nation and, after all, I am the chosen One. (And like God, I do not have a birth certificate.) SOURCE

II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, unless it is my face carved on Mt. Rushmore. SOURCE

III. Thou shalt not utter my middle name in vain (or in public). Only I can say Barack Hussein Obama. SOURCE

IV. Remember tax day, April 15th, to keep it holy. SOURCE

V. Honour thy father and thy mother until they are too old and sick to care for. They will cost our public-funded health-care system too much money. SOURCE

VI. Thou shalt not kill, unless you have an unwanted, unborn baby. For it would be an abomination to punish your daughter with a baby. SOURCE

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery if you are conservative or a Republican. Liberals and Democrats are hereby forgiven for all of their infidelity and immorality, but the careers of conservatives will be forever destroyed. SOURCE

VIII. Thou shalt not steal, until you've been elected to public office. Only then is it acceptable to take money from hard-working, successful citizens and give it to those who do not work, illegal immigrants, or those who do not have the motivation to better their own lives. SOURCE

IX. Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian. SOURCE

X. Thou shalt not covet because it is simply unnecessary. I will place such a heavy tax burden on those that have achieved the American Dream that, by the end of my term as President, nobody will have any wealth or material goods left for you to covet. SOURCE

Thought I'd take one 'source' and test it just to see what it's like:

Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian  SOURCE
End of quote

Follow the source, and the first thing to notice are the titles it's under - Musings, and Satire. Hardly the most reliable of sources! Even assuming all the things mentioned in the article are correct though (I can't be bothered to do a thorough check on the reliability of something described as satire, especially since it's not been described as the source of the quoted claim above) it doesn't support the quoted section.

That said as a piece of satire the 10 commandments thing isn't too bad, so my opinion on it depends on whether the person using it actually believes it to be true, or simply finds it amusing (this isn't directed at you by the way lula, just the patriot update section you posted)

Reply #363 from JoeUser Forums Top

Yes, the whole thing is satirical and amusing, but at the same time, it sends a message that gets one thinking as well.

Take for example

Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian SOURCE
End of quote

I think this one is pretty much on the mark.  It used to be a good thing to "Discriminate", to have discriminating tastes, but not any more...nowadays it's a bad thing. Again, unless one is discriminating against conservatives (Rush Limbaugh, Anne Coulter, Sarah Palin are a few who come to mind...Caucasions, particulary old white men, and Christians, particularly Catholics. Anti-Catholicism is an acceptable prejudice.

The US economy is in a much greater crisis than just money. There's a moral debt that's even more staggering than 15 trillion dollars. Please watch this episode of The Vortex about the ills of Obamanomics.
