Last night, I read a very good article, "America's Greatest Threat," by Rev. Ted Pike.

"Mainstream media gives the impression that the anti-Christian ideas they promote have risen on their own merit. Nothing could be further from the truth. We evolved from slime? A woman has every right to kill her unborn child? Sodomy is "gay" (a happy alternative to marriage)? These powerfully destructive premises are artificially and constantly inserted into national discussion. Traditional Christian values are excluded or belittled."

..... Ron Paul ..... his voting record is a testimony to his abiding by his oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution, something none of the other candidates have done. Every other candidate for President has supported and promoted legislation and policies at odds with our form of government, a limited constitutional republic. Every other candidate is promoting more of the same anti-christian socialism that we've been getting with each administration regardless of which party is in control....

..... "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" and Ron Paul is the only candidate promoting a constitutional republic designed to protect our God-given liberties. Yes, God will have His way in raising up the next President, but He will hold each of us accountable for who and what we endorse with our vote. Will you endorse evil or good?

In his summary, Brezinski says the economic and human sacrifices required for the pursuit of world domination are not congenial to democratic instincts. Brezinski suggests that Americans will only support such sacrifices if they are provided with a direct external challenge comparable to the Pearl Harbor attack...

The Nazi-like plan for world domination must have fallen on sympathetic eyes when our president read it.

In 1942, during World War II, Prescott S. Bush (grandfather to our current president) was either a director or a top executive in four corporations that were seized by the U.S. Government under the "Trading With the Enemy" act. The four corporations were: The Union Banking Corporation, the Holland-America Trading Corporation, the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation and the Silesian-American Corp. A financial Godfather to all these businesses was Brown Brothers-Harriman. Prescott Bush was managing director. Learn more click:

Very interestingly, this cousin pretended not to know if Michael Chertoff was his uncle, but the author's mother, contacted on the phone, said, "Why, of course Michael is his uncle!"

AFP's Christopher Bollyn, who dug up the information, also alleges that Ben Chertoff's mother was a Mossad agent.

While there is, as yet, no evidence of any working relationship between the two, it is certainly noteworthy that the cousin of the current Homeland Security Chief, who, in his previous incarnation as head of the Justice Department's criminal division was instrumental in the release of obvious Israeli spies before and after 9/11, happens to be behind a high-profile attempt to debunk 9/11 conspiracy theories."

Michael Chertoff also reportedly holds dual U.S. / Isreaeli citizenship:

Had an investigation been done into the crime of failing to file the "currency transaction reports" in August 2001, then we would know who made the cash withdrawals in $100 bills amounting to the $5 billion surge.

When reviewing the record of July and August of 2001, Bill Bergman noticed a $5 billion surge in the currency component of the M1 money supply—the third largest such increase since 1947. Bergman asked about this anomaly—and was removed from his investigative duties.

Warning bells about anomalies in the fiscal sector were sounded in the summer of 2001, but not heeded.

One of these detainees, Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, the so-called 9/11 "mastermind," has been confirmed to have been waterboarded. Yesterday evening, Attorney General Mike Mukasey refused to rule out using this evidence in court, saying, "What evidence gets presented at this trial is up to the prosecutors."

On CNN last night, Charles Swift, the "hero of Guantanamo" who represented Salim Hamdan in the case Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, slammed the government's refusal to rule out waterboarding-based evidence in the military commission:

SWIFT: And if we use — we move beyond the torture discussion to the question of using this in a trial where life and death is at stake. If we use waterboarded testimony in that trial, to my knowledge…the last precedent for using that kind of testimony was the Spanish Inquisition.

(1) A new currency, called the Amero, replace the dollar.

(2) All borders between Mexico, the U.S.A., and Canada be erased and the Border Patrol retired.

(3) A North American Parliament Group, composed of Mexican politicians and U.S. quislings, take over legislative authority, superseding our own Senate and House.

(4) A North American Judicial Council, or Tribunal, take over the judicial function and demote the U.S. Supreme Court to an advisory only role.

(5) A joint Executive Authority be set up, possibly with its capitol in Mexico City or Toronto, to dictate to U.S. citizens the terms of surrender.

Why, then, would anyone want to vote? Why, then, would anyone want to join in a campaign?

"Winning an election is part of a larger strategy to recapture our freedom and restore national sovereignty. This cannot be done by putting one man into office, even the White House. A man like Ron Paul, if elected, would be surrounded by collectivist enemies in Congress, in the bureaucracy, in the Pentagon, in the CIA, in the Judiciary, and in the corporate media (to name just a few power centers) who would throw every conceivable roadblock in his way."

2Cr 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight:

Newsmax writes that Paul's message of small government, limited taxation, and reduced intervention abroad "resonates with millions of Americans" and compares the Congressman's impact to that of conservative icon Barry Goldwater, who fundamentally shifted the course of the GOP 50 years ago.

America was not demolished overnight and it won't be restored overnight. This is part of a long process that transcends the issue of Ron Paul's presidential campaign. People who are so naive as to lose hope and abandon the cause at such an early stage need to realize that the struggle to revive liberty is a long and arduous battle which really has no end.

The Captain of the Titanic was Edward Smith. He was a Jesuit and worked for J.P. Morgan. From National Geographic 'The Secrets of the Titanic,' (1986)

When the ship departed southern England, on board was Francis Browne. He was the most powerful Jesuit in all of Ireland and the 'Jesuit Master of Edward Smith.' 'Here is Jesuit treachery at its finest. The provincial Father Francis Browne boards the Titanic, photographs the victims, most assuredly briefs the Captain concerning his oath as a Jesuit, and the following morning bids him farewell...'

1Tim 2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

John McLaughlin, Host and Producer of PBS’s "The McLaughlin Group" stated: "Person of the Year: Ron Paul, the physician-politician. He injected the Presidential campaign with a dose of truth serum. Paul’s straight talk on Iraq, and his straight talk on the Constitution, as Buchanan pointed out, and the limits of government have made him an Internet phemonema. In fact, Paul has become an independent force in the nation’s life."

enough already, thank you for your question. I am a Christian as I have called upon Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord. I came to a personal relationship as a child, maybe at 5 years of age. The experience is quite clear to me but I did not note my age at the time.

Since I am in my 50's I have had a long time to know the love and provisions of my Heavenly Father. I came to understand the Gospel during family worship which was led by my Father as he taught from a childrens book by Dr. Donald Grey Barnhouse.

I will have to pick this up again later.
