Only weeks after voting for a resolution that “recognizes the Islamic faith as one of the great religions of the world,” seventeen Democrats in the U.S. House refused to vote for a Christmas resolution that condemns the worldwide persecution of Christians.

In an act of intolerance toward Christianity (and Christmas), Reps. Alcee Hastings and Debbie Wasserman Shultz have decided that religious discrimination should be the rule of law. By their vote, Christmas is not worthy of recognition by the United States government and should be shunned at all costs.

I am happy to report that my congressman voted neither yea nor nea on either of these silly bills. Is this the kind of thing we pay Congress to do? No! It doesn’t accomplish anything except express the opinion of Congress, for which I could care less!

This kind of bill could be construed as supporting an establishment of religion, contrary to the First Amendment. Don’t get me wrong — I’m not one of those nut jobs who twist the First Amendment to mean that there shouldn’t be nativity scenes on the Town Hall lawn or that Congress shouldn’t start each day with prayer. I’m just saying that these two bills are nothing but a bunch of hot air that take away from the real legislation that Congress is supposed to be debating.

The greatest testament to God’s protection, our nation’s effective leadership, and our troops’ selfless sacrifice is that a similar tragedy has not visited us again these last six years.

Local News | “I am both Muslim and Christian” | Seattle Times Newspaper
Shortly after noon on Fridays, the Rev. Ann Holmes Redding ties on a black headscarf, preparing to pray with her Muslim group on First Hill.On Sunday mornings, Redding puts on the white collar of an Episcopal priest.

She does both, she says, because shes Christian and Muslim.

Redding, who until recently was director of faith formation at St. Marks Episcopal Cathedral, has been a priest for more than 20 years. Now shes ready to tell people that, for the last 15 months, shes also been a Muslim — drawn to the faith after an introduction to Islamic prayers left her profoundly moved.

This poor mixed-up lady is following religion with her emotions rather than her heart and mind. How can she be a Christian and believe that Jesus is God while also being a good Muslim and believing that Jesus was just a great prophet? How can she trust in Christ alone for Salvation while following the Five Pillars of Islam to find favor with Allah? It’s not possible! She is either insincere or apathetic in regard to at least one of her religions. Such a cavalier attitude toward faith reduces it to an interesting hobby or fun social club — rather than the life-altering event of true conversion. I pray this confused and wandering soul finds a redemptive relationship with Christ while there is yet hope.

Pigs Banned from TV Ads, Out of Respect for Muslims - China Connection: Laura Robertson Blog - CBN News
Although pigs have positive connotations for most Chinese, they are unclean and offensive to Muslims. Therefore, in an unusual move, CCTV, China’s state-run television network, banned all television ads featuring pigs as a way “to show respect to Islam.”

This is chilling proof that the Muslim terrorists are winning the war on terror. If we don’t develope some backbone, we might as well all convert to Islam now and get it over with.

I heard about this issue, but an email from the American Family Association really brought it home. If you like, you may read an excellent article on the subject and write to your representatives in Congress. Here is what I wrote to Representative Miller, Senator Martinez, and Senator Nelson:

It is an assault on the culture and moral foundation of this country that Keith Ellison, D-Minn. plans to take his oath of office on the Koran. What is more, this act furthers the ultimate goal of terrorists who would love to see Islam permeate the fabric of our society. Please take this matter very seriously and ensure that only the Bible is used for taking an oath of office. If necessary, introduce and pass legislation making the Bible the book to be used in swearing in Representatives, Senators, the President and Vice-President and other public officials.

Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you on this matter of importance to me and my family.
