The Pope and his European Crusade

I like this guy, he's really got balls:

Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Velvet Revolution that overthrew Communism in Czechoslovakia, the pope is visiting what many religious observers, unfairly or not, consider the ground zero of religious apathy in Europe. Vatican officials said that he had chosen the Czech Republic for a mission central to his papacy: fomenting a continentwide spiritual revolt against what Benedict labeled Saturday as “atheist ideology,” “hedonistic consumerism” and “a growing drift toward ethical and cultural relativism.”

It's pretty clear that there’s no relativism in Islam. There’s no doubt how many times to wash your hands and pray. No doubt about who is and who is not ok to kill. No doubt who your enemies are and what you are to do with them. No doubt that if you hate your enemies Allah is on your side because Allah hates his enemies too.

MSNBC will be sure to cover this.





OUR LIVES BEGIN TO END THE DAY WE BECOME SILENT ABOUT THINGS THAT MATTER.
Obama did not have (for the first time ever) the annual White House Christian Prayer Breakfast this year.
Aug. '09 Obama Denies (for the first time ever) a Flyover at the 'God and Country' Rally in Colorado annual 43rd year event, "because of its christian nature."


SCROLL DOWN


We should have known about this months ago, but, our government, who issues permits for gatherings, did not bother to let it be known.


Did you hear about this on the news???? This is another very important e-mail for us to read and take into consideration as to where Obama is taking America....


Washington, D.C. - On September 25th there will be a national prayer gathering of Muslims on the west front of the U.S. Capitol Building. They are expecting at least 50,000 to attend from mosques all across America. They will gather to pray from 4:00 AM until 7:00 PM. The gathering will take place by the site where U.S. Presidents have been inaugurated since 1981. The organizers say that it was Obama's inauguration speechin January and his speech broadcast from Egypt in June that gave them the idea for this prayer gathering on Capitol Hill.

They have a website set up for this event. If you never look at another website look at this one, especially the final words:
