"In a 19-17 vote on Monday night, the House Budget Committee shot down the inclusion of the Stupak-Pitts amendment in the health care reconciliation bill. The amendment, which was drafted by Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) last November, would prevent the use of federal funds for abortion and is likely to be addressed by the full House later this week."

The lines are being drawn pretty clearly. It seems that the radicalization of America is serving the purpose of clarifying individual beliefs. I know that this statement is subjective but, to me anyway, some of the muddiness that usually surrounds politics is being hosed off. Even though they're trying to vote for this bill in the house without voting for it we all know what's going on. With most things political it's just the geeks that pay attention and get pissed off about the levels of corruption. This time, it's the whole country.
The same is true in the Church. The veneer of holiness is being stripped from those in the leadership that have decided to follow evil instead of Christ. Whether it's the Progressives in the USCCB or the priests molesting kids, everything is being brought into the open.
I think it likely that evil will once again gain the upper hand and much of what we are seeing will be obscured. But, for a short period of time, man is being given a great grace and a choice. You see, I believe that we are approaching the end of an era. I can feel it in the air and in my soul. Satan has been in control of the earth since the fall. If you believe in such things, which I do, he was given additional power by God to try and destroy the Church about a hundred years ago. This power was to last around a century (See The Vision of Pope Leo XIII).
The time allotted to Satan has passed and along with it a century filled with wars, plagues, famines, holocaust and the most Satanic of all political movements, Communism. We have also seen the "Smoke of Satan" enter God's Church. I read a lot of history so I'm not saying that all of this hasn't happened before. It has. Just not on such a concentrated level and with such a clear intent to destroy not only the Church but to completely disrupt salvation history and, through the attempted destruction of the Jews, man's way to redemption.
God is about to enter history again. Maybe not physically, as with the incarnation, but directly. We will all have to choose sides and because the truth has been exposed we will be held to account for our choice.
For anyone out there that hopes to sit this out and just side with the winner, your actions will serve as your decision. Inaction supports evil because it doesn't oppose it.
We are being called to arms. If we support God we have to speak out. If we support freedom we have to speak out. We can't bury our heads in the sand and hope this goes away. It won't. Everything that we know is about to collapse and our lives will never be the same.
We have the right to make a choice but along with the right comes the obligation to choose. If you don't fulfill the obligation you will lose the right. And if you lose the right to choose you lose the right to freedom along with it.
So make your choice or cower into slavery. It really has become as simple as that. The lines have been drawn clearly now. We have reached an absolutely pivotal point in history. Nothing will ever be the same again. Make your choice and act on it.
