A RIDER ON A PALE HORSE HEADS OUR WAY

"Prediction: Abortions will be performed at community health centers. You can bet your foreclosed mortgage on that. There was always a will by this administration, and now there's a way."
Kathleen Parker- Washington Post

Here is the question that is not being addressed by anyone: if our tax dollars ARE going to fund abortion then we are participating in the death of innocent children; how do we avoid this?

Obviously, this isn't some brand new problem because we all know how the government works. Hyde Amendment or no, tax dollars have been and will continue to be funneled into support for abortion. It's always been done with a wink and a nod and we've been able to avoid the direct complicity we've all been a part of. But not anymore.

Lines are being drawn by God to separate us into those that follow Him and those that don't. This is part of the process. No more murkiness; evil is out in the open for all to see. To be guilty of sin we must realize we are sinning. Regarding abortion funding and the deaths of children; is there any doubt left?

So what do we do about it? Do we refuse to pay taxes? Which ones? We're taxed on damn near everything we do and the money collected is mixed and mingled to such an extent that we can't separate dollars spent on abortion from anything else. Do we rely on the power of the ballot box? Sure, we can try that. The ugly reality is, however, that even if we can get this thing overturned at some point countless innocent lives will be lost before then, using our money to carry out the crime, with our knowledge and our tacit consent. Do we try to opt out of the system entirely? Is that even possible?

We need some help here. The Church needs to step up and tell us what options we have available. Americans are about to be forced to begin slaughtering babies by paying for the holocaust, an action no different than picking up a knife and cutting their little throats ourselves. We are about to become part and parcel of the culture of death in ways so obvious that we WILL be held accountable. Somebody with moral authority needs to give us some direction.

Because if they don't, hell is about to ride on its pale horse down the streets of America. As people begin to internalize what has happened and how they are going to be held responsible there will be an uprising. It'll start as civil disobedience which I fear will have little impact on the machinery of murder. As it becomes apparent that our government is determined to turn us into a nation of Satanic murderers little option will be left for those of us that refuse to follow the Devil. We will follow God, wherever He leads us. He may ask us to stand as witnesses and martyrs or He may ask us to fight. Whatever, we'll have to do it. We'll be bound by the promise of greater glory to suffer the fate we will here on earth. For no matter the suffering, we know who will win.

America, WE DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS! We don't have to keep poking God in the chest saying, "I dare ya'." Unfortunately, we will. And we are about to get what we've asked for.

Pray for discernment. Pray that you will hear God's voice. Pray that the Church will rise up and give us the direction we so desperately need. Pray for the conversion of hearts. Just simply pray.

A TALE OF TWO TRINKETS

Anyone that has read Dante's classic, "The Inferno", has a picture in their mind of the clever torments inflicted upon sinners in all the various levels of Hell. The torments are always directly related to the sin and incredibly clever in their application. I wonder what use he would have found for these pens?

On a shelf in my parents house sits a beer mug. It was removed from a dead German soldier during WWII. The artwork on it is a depiction of people working in the death camps with the slogan "Arbeit Macht Frei" shown above the gates. Like the pen given to Sister Kehaan this mug memorialized this soldiers participation in a Holocaust. Like the Sister he was part of the political machine that had as it's goal and made possible the deaths of millions because they were inconvenient, sick, poor or a thousand other reasons.

I pray for Sister Kehaan and that dead German soldier. Honestly though, I wouldn't want to die with either the pen or the stein and what they both signify attached to my immortal soul.

"Sister Carol Kehaan, President of the Catholic Health Association, has been awarded with one of the 20 pens used by President Barak Obama on Tuesday to sign the health care bill.

...Sister Kehaan, who strongly supported the controversial health care bill despite the opposition of the US Bishops, was joined in receiving presidential pens by some of the most strongly pro-abortion members of the Congress and the Senate: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid; Senator Dick Durbin, majority whip; Max Baucus, chairman of the Finance Committee; Senators Tom Harkin and Christopher Dodd; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer; James Clyburn, majority whip; George Miller, chairman of the Education committee; Henry Waxman, chairman of Energy and Commerce; Sander Levin, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee; John Dingell; and Charles Rangel, former chairman of the Ways and Means Committee."

IS ROBERTSON RIGHT ABOUT HAITI?

In a word, yes.


Listen, I'm not going to go into whether his take on history is right or if his understanding of Haitian religiosity is correct in every respect. What I would like to address is whether or not evil exists and if it does how does it effect us. Is it possible that a "deal" with the Devil could cause an earthquake?


I believe it could and here is why. If we accept the idea as postulated in the Second Law of Thermodynamics that all processes deteriorate without the input of additional energy then it stands to reason that all material bodies and processes, left to their own devices, will fail. Something has to hold them together and supply the energy needed to keep them functioning.


If the source of energy necessary to replenish the system is withdrawn what happens? The system decays. If you have a cell phone and the battery is not recharged it will cease to function. The same is true of all battery operated devices. If you don't maintain your home it will eventually collapse and return to the dirt. Even humans, at the physical level, wither away with time. We can use diet, medicine and exercise to extend the process but in the end we can't supply the energy of life. It exists outside of us and is unavailable to us.


We can and do fall apart physically; this is measurable and demonstrable. But, what about spiritually?


I suppose one could argue that there is no spiritual world; that all that exists is material and measurable.  To that I would ask, "Can one quantify love, hate, jealousy or pleasure?". Of course we can't yet most would agree they exist.


So, if we accept the existence of a spiritual reality, do the laws that apply to the physical world apply to it, too? I would argue yes, some do. I would also argue further that it can be proven. Perhaps not through the measurements applied to physical science but through observation and experience.


If our existence as a physical and spiritual being requires external power to slow or stop our decay, what is that power. To many people of faith the answer is God. We believe that a power exists outside of time and space that created everything and is the source of all power needed to maintain the physical world. Remove this life sustaining power and the inevitable disintegration of the system begins. That is an undeniable physical law (which we believe God created, too).


At the spiritual level the same rules apply. However, here we have a little more say in the game. Through free will (another gift from God), we can choose to reject or accept good. (I know, good and evil don't exist. They do and it is provable; I just don't feel like getting sidetracked. So, for the sake of argument, just go with it.) God is good and God is the power that holds everything together. When you choose to reject good, you have rejected God and thus along with Him you have rejected the power that you need to maintain a proper system.


As an example:
We have all engaged in sinful activity (all of you that believe in absolutely no absolutes like good, evil and sin, just sit down and shut up). We know from personal experience that as we continue to participate in evil and reject good that the evil becomes easier. We know that over time, one evil leads to another. We know that given enough time we will sink into a morass of moral depravity; the system will collapse.


Unless, of course, we allow energy into the system by choosing good. It is evident to anyone that has changed and turned from sin that life gets better. We can look at people we know personally or publicly that have repented and chosen good and have seen their lives restored to balance and happiness. We have all observed the physical law in action at the spiritual level.


The question raised by Pat Robertson is whether a society can suffer a moral collapse of the system and then could this collapse cause an earthquake? I think the answer is yes.


If we accept that the Second Law of Thermodynamics applies at a physical as well as spiritual level then it is logical that a society that chooses through their actions to reject good would eventually see the disintegration of their society. If we accept the premise of both spiritual and physical ramifications to a rejection of system sustaining power then why wouldn't a withdrawal of that power affect the land the people live on. Isn't an earthquake, by its very activity, a complete destruction of a system , casting it into complete collapse? Isn't part of the system required to maintain human life the environment? Why wouldn't the destruction of that environment be part of the collapse chosen by the people through their rejection of God?


This is what Robertson is saying. The people of Haiti chose the path that has resulted in the collapse of their system. They rejected God for Satan through the use of voodoo and other pagan forms of worship.


The media and its pundits are calling Robertson a madman. Don Imus went so far this morning as to say that he needed to be strung up. Wow. It seems to me that Robertson has followed a logical train of thought based on what he believes. You don't have to believe what he believes but to call him mad for using logic is in itself crazy. His comments would have been understood for what they meant maybe as few as 50 years ago. We have chosen to not understand and have forced that choice on subsequent generations through incomplete education. We have chosen evil.


And if Robertson is right, and I believe he is, what is in store for America? We have chosen pagan gods over the one true God and have added in the sacrifice of millions of children through abortion. An earthquake will be just the beginning.
