Above His Paygrade - Heartless Eloquence

Pretty flip answer don't you think?



Toss him a softball or put him in a venue where he can 'preach to the choir' - pardon the pun, he is Mr. Eloquence. Give him a hard question in front of an impartial audience and it is ah . . . ah . . . ah . . . buh . . . buh . . . but.

When Barack Obama was asked when a baby had human rights, it took him a full 27 seconds to BEGIN to mentally get it together and start to formulate a clever non-response. He never did answer the question.

Toward the end he very indirectly acknowledged that he did not believe life began at conception.

If the Rev. Wright controversy was not enough, this should show most Evangelicals and Catholics that Barack Obama is not one of them. The Bible addresses persons like Senator Obama:

2 Timothy 3:1 You must understand this: In the last days there will be violent periods of time. 2 People will be selfish and love money. They will brag, be arrogant, and use abusive language. They will curse their parents, show no gratitude, have no respect for what is holy, 3 and lack normal affection for their families. They will refuse to make peace with anyone. They will be slanderous, lack self-control, be brutal, and have no love for what is good. 4 They will be traitors. They will be reckless and conceited. They will love pleasure rather than God. 5 They will appear to have a godly life, but they will not let its power change them. Stay away from such people. 6 Some of these men go into homes and mislead weak-minded women who are burdened with sins and led by all kinds of desires. 7 These women are always studying but are never able to recognize the truth. 8 As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men oppose the truth. Their minds are corrupt, and the faith they teach is counterfeit. - Emphasis mine

When Christians gained power in Rome, the 1st things they did were 1) Stop the slaughter of the coliseum and 2) Stop the practice of infanticide.

Barack Obama wants to turn back the clock, he advocates going back to the slack standards of pagan Rome. Maybe if we had to toss our babies off cliffs or leave them out to the exposure of the elements rather than hide the practice of abortion under the cloak of medicine and law it would not be so acceptable.

Or we may be headed into those last days Jesus spoke of:

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets will rise, and will deceive many. 12 And because iniquity will abound, the love of many will become cold.

What could be colder or crueler than late term abortion? It is a sign of how far we have fallen (and when I say 'we' I mean not just American society but especially the Christian Church) that such a thing can even be discussed so dispassionately in a Church filled with so-called Christian believers.

Barack Obama may have a form of Godliness (humanistic religiosity) and a human charisma when he speaks but he has no heart.

TTFN,
