White House – Don Boys https://donboys.cstnews.com Common Sense for Today Sun, 05 Mar 2023 04:46:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.6.29 Voters Have a Right to Know If Pete Buttigieg is A Phony Christian! https://donboys.cstnews.com/voters-have-a-right-to-know-if-pete-buttigieg-is-a-phony-christian https://donboys.cstnews.com/voters-have-a-right-to-know-if-pete-buttigieg-is-a-phony-christian#respond Thu, 21 Nov 2019 04:08:43 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2449 Since Pete Buttigieg is the most vocal “Christian” in the Democrat presidential race, he should stop his fuzzy, fractured even false references to the Bible. Principled Christians resent having the Bible twisted like a pretzel to prove a false point of view.

Even the media is sarcastically calling him “St. Pete” because of his many biblical references and his talk of morality. A Federalist article really pegged him rightly when they wrote about his speaking of morality: “But someone who lives in sexual immorality and supports abortion right up until birth is quite obviously the wrong person to do it.”

Bingo! they nailed him to a post.

Voters want to know if Pete is a genuine Christian or simply a church member. Does he really believe that Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life? If not, he is a professor but not a possessor making him a pretender. That means he is using Christianity for self-aggrandizement. If he is not a sheep, he is a wolf in sheep’s skin.

Pete could be similar to Julian the Apostate who, according to Will Durant in his eleven volume History of Civilization, “conformed in all externals to the Christian worship, and even read the Scriptures publicly in church.” Julian was the Roman Emperor from 361 to 363 and was the last non-Christian emperor. Frankly very few of them were true Christians, including Constantine. Julian was from a long line of “Christians” who had been corrupted by a corrupt Christianity. He was an unannounced pagan (at the time) while reading the Bible in church!

Of course, there are plenty of pompous pagans in the pulpits in our day.

Even an apostate can do some things right as proved by Julian’s dismissal of thousands of servants, eunuchs, and superfluous government officials. He also slashed taxes and streamlined administrative procedures. Julian established the principle that a man was presumed innocent until proven guilty. He was the first political leader to take that position to my knowledge.

Julian was a pagan who practiced animal sacrifices while heading up the “Christian” empire, attempting to revive paganism to replace the quickly advancing paganized Christianity!

Could Pete be philosophically related to Julian the Apostate?

Desperately trying to sound normal, Pete has promised he “would bring Christianity back to the White House if he were elected president.” Well, “Christianity” is not something that can be toted around. It is a faith, “the evidence of things not seen.” Pete said, “Faith doesn’t have to be something to divide us.” But faith does divide us since some believe the Muslim faith, others the Hindu faith, others the Christian faith. Christ said Luke 12:51 “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division.” And only a fool or fanatic says all faiths are equal or that one is as good as another.

Christ divides light from darkness, truth from error, and good from bad; however, radicals don’t like such absolutes.

I see Pete as a man who has rejected biblical standards as well as common decency and is using biblical language to confuse shallow voters and steal their votes with his deception.

Pete went on to decry Georgia’s abortion law where they have male politicians telling a woman “what she ought to do with her body.” No, if a woman had made the right decisions about her body she would have stayed out of bed, kept her knees together and yelled, “no.” Failing to do that, she wants to kill the innocent child. And Pete wants to guarantee her that right. Surely an innocent child’s right to live is far more precious than a woman’s right to slip into her form-fitting evening gown for a night on the town—something a pregnant body would make cumbersome.

When Pete and his “husband” move into the White House, he will provide an example to people “who are guided by a faith tradition in making their decisions about what they think is right and wrong.” However, he does not tell us the standard that will be used to make those decisions.

If the Bible is used, then Pete and his “husband” would not be in the White House or any house since sodomy is clearly condemned in the Bible as the most gross and shameless act of depravity.

Are Christians “on the wrong side of history” as to LGBTQ issues as Pete told CNN? Is Pete totally unaware of history? Sodomy has been known as the sin (and crime) “against nature”; “that unspeakable sin”; “that unmentionable vice;” and “crime without a name.”

While Pete is now promising to bring Christianity “back to the White House,” he was critical of Vice-President Pence for actually doing that. Of Pence, Pete said, he was “fanatical.” Pence, not wanting to be tarred and feathered by the LGBTQ crowd said of Pete, “I see him as a dedicated public servant and a patriot.”

While Pence is a kind, decent, and good man, he is not a committed warrior in support of truth. He is also a politician.

Pete is not aware that a homosexual is at war not only with himself, but with his Maker. He must not know the Bible truth about homosexuality that has been confirmed by all religions since the beginning of time—perversion will destroy a society. You may have noticed, they are no longer gay in Sodom.

Why can’t people believe that perversion is wrong without being haters, bigots, and homophobes? Even if one agrees that criticism of LGBTQ positions is bigotry, why can’t Pete’s crowd be tolerant of the intolerant?

Or, is tolerance a one-way-street?

However, Pete suggests that he will use the Bible (but not Leviticus or Romans) to guide him in making decisions. He will use some of the “safer” commands of Christ such as “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat.” However, what Pete doesn’t know is that Christ was speaking to persons, not governments. It is people who are to have compassion and reach into their purse and feed the hungry and take in the stranger. It has nothing to do with government action at any level. To make it otherwise is a perversion of truth.

Governments are in place to protect the liberties of the citizens from internal and external threats, not feed us, house us, cloth us, suckle us, regulate us, educate us, or provide health care.

But then, Government must have some excuse to take what we produce so they provide all the goodies that people are too lazy to provide for themselves.

Pete implied that if God belonged to a political party, it wouldn’t be the Republican party. And neither would it be the Democrat Party; after all, God was booed at the last Democrat convention! No, Christ would overturn their conference tables, rip the microphones out of their outlets, break their television cameras, and whip the whole crowd (with few exceptions) out of Washington.

Pete has castigated Conservative Christians for supporting Trump, suggesting that we approve of his unseemly actions. Yet, Pete expects the voters to elect him when he doesn’t even know what is natural, acceptable, and biblical by slipping between the sheets with another man.

Pete talks about Christianity but he speaks of a false, pagan religion totally unknown to the Scriptures.

I am viciously attacked for my stand against baby killing and all forms of perversion by the same people who believe Bruce Jenner is a woman, males can use female restrooms, a person is whatever gender he or she desires, Blacks can’t be racists, Elvis is still alive, and believe two people of the same gender make up a family—so my critics aren’t the best thinkers on planet Earth.

Modern Visigoth in the White House: Barbarian Bent on Destruction! https://donboys.cstnews.com/modern-visigoth-in-the-white-house-barbarian-bent-on-destruction https://donboys.cstnews.com/modern-visigoth-in-the-white-house-barbarian-bent-on-destruction#comments Fri, 15 Aug 2014 16:08:58 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=846 The civilization of a thousand years could see the handwriting on the wall: the brutal barbarians were at the gates of Rome and collapse was imminent. In 410 A.D., Rome collapsed as the city of the Caesars fell to uncivilized, uneducated, uncouth barbarians. With the collapse of Rome, a chill went throughout the civilized world.

I sense a cold shudder throughout the free world and it seems especially obvious following each presidential press conference.

Perspicacious people are aware that the “city on a hill” is being destroyed by its own leaders: Visceral left wing progressives in the White House, Congress, and the Courts are the modern Visigoths who have ravaged, ruined, and raped America.

This should be no surprise since Obama promised to fundamentally change America and he has been immensely successful. This amounts to a coup d’état with collusion of Congress and the courts. The progressives seem to subscribe to the ancient Roman adage “whatever pleases the king has the force of law.” But then Obama is not king, only President of a constitutional republic. However, Obama seems to have assumed the mantle of Emperor Charles IV who “legalized anarchy and called it a constitution.”

Obama has the mentality of Humpty Dumpty (who had a great fall!) who declared to Alice, “Words mean what I say they mean.” Obama has his own interpretation of the Constitution so anything he does is “legal.”

Obama justifies executive action because Congress has refused to act consequently he has made laws for the good of Americans. That means he can make illegal aliens, legal immigrants! He can make vile immorality very decent, even wholesome morality! He can redefine marriage that has stood since the beginning of civilization into something sleazy, specious, and sullied. He can take over a private company and run it as a government enterprise; he can send fighter planes to terrorists in Egypt; he can spy on Americans, even politicians with impunity; he can spend money the nation doesn’t have to impress people we don’t like; he can target Christians and Conservatives using the IRS as a tool and IRS officials arrogantly deny culpability. He plays while the world burns.

Furthermore, he can take over the health care industry with grandiose false promises and turn it into a third world industry; he can honor every minor Muslim organization and denigrate Christian groups; he can have radicals at the White House (our house) but never has a Fundamentalist Christian; he can tell us that government should not be in our bedrooms since it is no one’s business yet use tax dollars to pay for what goes on in those bedrooms; he can speak of our Constitution yet purposefully refuse to use the word “Creator” when quoting it; he can have a White House dinner for the Muslim Ramadan celebration but not have one for the National Day of Prayer; he can disinvite Franklin Graham from speaking at the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer Event but Muslims come and go from the White House as if it were the Mosque of Omar.

I could go on and on and I think I will!

Obama can demand and get a change of definitions; so now a terrorist is no longer a terrorist, a jihadist is no longer a jihadist, and a radical Muslim is no longer radical. He can (contrary to federal law) spend 23 million dollars to back Kenya’s constitution to support abortion. He can refuse to release pertinent personal documents as other Presidents have done and spend millions of dollars to hide them!

We have a Visigoth in the White House, a brash, boorish, barbarian bent on destruction!

Obama thinks he can choose what laws he will obey, not understanding that makes him a rogue leader. Equally shocking is the lack of horror from Congress and the Courts. Moreover, it is incredible that the streets are not full of pitchfork-wielding taxpayers demanding strict adherence to the Constitution by every elected official. Alas, the streets are empty; after all, most of us are eating three meals per day and still have access to television. This is not a call for violence but for vision, vigilance, verity, especially verity.

I do not think America’s greatest days are ahead of us. We are not made of the same necessary material as in our early years. With few exceptions our leaders are compromising, cowardly, and corrupt. Early American leaders were not paragons of virtue but they were patriots who put America first. Our present leaders do not think patriotism is a virtue but a vice.

Obama is like the rooster who struts out each morning thinking the sun has risen just to hear him crow! But he can’t crow unless he is reading a script written by a hired hack. When he wanders away from the teleprompter, he does a great imitation of Elmer Fudd.

Straining, sweating, and struggling, whether he is trying to learn how to use a teleprompter, trying to memorize his talking points, trying to stop smoking, or straining to keep his wife’s mouth duct taped, Obama struggles to the top of the hill. There, surveying the world at his feet, he puffs out his chest, puts his hands on his hips and discovers that he has forgotten to put on his pants. The Emperor (or messiah) is naked as a jaybird!

Of course, informed and honest people have known that for a few years.
