“Plead my cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me. Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.” Psalms 35:1-2
By Riley J. Hood-CPoW State Chairman
For the past one hundred years, the ACLU and their fellow-travelers have been shutting down the God-given Rights of the majority of Americans, to pander to the whims of an overbearing, destructive, Christ hating minority, such as witches, Muslims, sodomites, atheists and abortionists. Notice, their rallying cry, “Separation of Church and State,” means only the Church. It rarely includes Mosques, or Buddhist Temples, etc.
Have you noticed that recently liberal Federal judges who strike down Christian expression and are now citing a “government endorsement of Christianity,” in addition to misapplying the Establishment clause of the First Amendment to our US Constitution? This is the next step. When any spoiled brat hears something Christian, and throws their little tantrum, the rights of Christians to free expression are muzzled to cater to the worst elements of society.
Did the Founding Fathers endorse Christianity? The answer is yes. Congress printed Bibles and distributed them to the Indian Nations, and to schools. Our memorials were in the shape of crosses and the Ten Commandments were posted at Courthouses. If you were an infidel, no one forced you to fake being a Christian, but this nation wasn’t going to cater to your blasphemies by suppressing the majority of our decent citizens who recognize God.
Does CPoW endorse Christianity? We always have. Does CPoW favor government officials using their God-given Inalienable Rights of religious free exercise to endorse or recommend Christianity? Absolutely, we keep company with this Nation’s founding generation regarding this matter, here are some examples: “Tuesday, September 6th, 1774 Resolved-That the Rev. Mr. Duche be desired upon to open the Congress tomorrow morning with prayers, at the Carpenter’s Hall, at nine o’clock.”
Rev. Duche read Psalm 35, then proceeded to pray, “Be Thou present, O God of Wisdom, and direct the counsel of this Honorable Assembly; enable them to settle all things on the best and surest foundations; that the scene of blood be speedily closed; that Order, Harmony and Peace may effectually be restored, and that Truth and Justice, Religion and Piety, prevail and flourish among the people.”
“Preserve the health of their bodies, and the vigor of their minds, shower down on them, and the millions they here represent, such temporal Blessings as Thou seest expedient for them in this world, and crown with everlasting Glory in the world to come. All this we ask in the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ, Thy Son and Our Savior, Amen.”
This was not a onetime event, as Ben Franklin attested to at the Constitutional Convention, according to James Madison’s records, on Thursday, June 28th, 1787, Franklin spoke about the deadlock in that convention, here are some excerpts, “..how has it happened, Sir, that we have not hitherto once thought of humbly applying to the Father of lights to illuminate our understanding?”
“In the beginning of the contest with Great Britain, when we were sensible to the danger, we had daily prayer in this room for Divine protection-Our prayers, Sir, were heard.” “Have we forgotten that powerful Friend? or do we imagine we no longer need his assistance?” Abraham Lincoln called for prayer during the Civil War, and during WWII, Peter Marshall Sr. was the US Senate’s chaplain.
At the Constitution Party of Wisconsin, we open up all our meetings with prayer, in the name of Jesus. If you can’t handle it, no one is forcing you to join us, but we will still maintain this practice because it is the American, Christian and right thing to do.
Hypocrisy in what sense? I’d say there’s a very high chance you are a hypocrite, if not a conscious parody. As for us, how are we hypocrites?
You are the fruitcake Riley, as is Dave Terry. You two deserve each other.
We don’t read what Dave Terry writes. It’s an unofficial site rule.
How come you fruitcakes didn’t confront you butt-buddy Dave Terry when he slandered me? Spare me your hypocrisy.
I agree, I’d rather know a bigot is a bigot than be blindsided.
Like picking a jury, I prefer when people are open and honest about their beliefs. It’s helpful.
In a murder case I tried, I had a juror tell me directly that, having grown up in Chicago, he would assume my black client with the gang tattoos was guilty based on his life experiences. It’s much more helpful for him to tell me that than to keep it in until he’s in the middle of deliberations.
“Give Riley some credit for coming to this website and posting in a couple sentences…”
Yes, certainly. Riley, thank you for posting and staying true to your principles. We have quite a bit of common ground, but then we also have several large areas of disagreement.
Everyone has biases.
Once, I read a book called “How to Pick a Jury”. It made clear there are so many biases that people don’t even realize they have. Many people don’t like obese people. Others don’t like corporations or insurance companies or Upper East Side yuppies or smelly guys on the subway or purple, transgendered hicks from Left Butt-Cheek, Iowa. The list goes on and on.
Here’s what I do if someone discriminates against people I like: I vote with my feet and go elsewhere. So long as there is no government force supporting the discrimination, the market should control it. Back when, people used to shun the anti-social types.
BTW, I thought fags were cigarettes.
The anti-Whites are the real bigots. They want genocide!
“Except when bigotry becomes the practice of the state, as it often does.”
The same can be said for practices designed to combat bigotry such as Part III of the Public Order Act of 1986 as well as the anti-Nazi laws adopted in many European nations. Nevertheless, a minimal state can only minimally discriminate.
Sodomite faggots are traitors to the White race. They are part of the liberal/commie/multicuturalist agenda to blend, breed and wipe our race off the face of the earth. Moral degeneracy leading to more childless Whites and more child molesters destroying the next generation.
“Faggots should be burned at the stake, which is where the term faggots (bundle of burning sticks) comes from.”
Even white faggots? Aryan faggots? They share your superior white blood, and you would have them killed? Some savior to the white race you are.
“Bigotry is a logical fallacy. Nothing more. Nothing less.”
Except when bigotry becomes the practice of the state, as it often does.
Bigotry is a logical fallacy. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Riley,
Like being a bigot, being a fag does not in itself cause harm to anyone. Claiming that being a fag is the worst condition does not constitute a logically sound statement unless you object to the fundamental premise that harming others is the worst action.
Faggots should be burned at the stake, which is where the term faggots (bundle of burning sticks) comes from.
Give Riley some credit for coming to this website and posting in a couple sentences wht Don Grundman took paragraphs to say in all of his posts.
Good point.
Ah, but Jed, there are so many assholes out there that sometimes it’s not worth the effort telling them they’re being assholes.
It’s already obvious to everyone else.
Bigotry does need to be called out and seen for what it is.
I can defend someone’s right to be an asshole, and still call him an asshole.
Let’s step back a moment. Christ preached a doctrine of love and humility. When the force of the strongest government in the world condemned him to death, he said nothing.
Most of us agree that it is not the place of the government to discriminate in favor or against one group or another. Put another way, I don’t care or want to know what others are doing behind closed doors, just as long as it does not impact on me. One may be personally opposed to all sorts of behavior, but that does not give anyone the right to legislate to outlaw/promote any of it so long as it does not interfere with others’ rights.
The ACLU often pushes a “left-leaning” agenda, but I seem to recall it led the successful court battle for Nazis to march in Skokie, not because it agreed with their message but because it believes that the government may not violate others’ right of free association and expression, no matter how heinous the message.
On these points, I believe the LP and CP can agree: there is no role whatsoever for the government to play in these matters other than to protect the rights of Americans to freedom of expression, speech, religion, association (which also includes freedom not to associate), etc. That does not mean the government should enforce laws that promote bias in favor of one group over another, even if the now favored group is the victim of past discrimination.
I would think this is pretty basic stuff, but perhaps we need to remember it rather than calling each other faggots and bigots.
LOL whatever Bro Perm.
Riley Hood: I’ll pray for your hating soul.
Jed,
A fag is the worst thing you can be. That goes for all of you on the website.
Better to be a faggot than a bigot.
Dave Terry,
The day you can beat me up, I will cut my hair for you. As to being a faggot, that describes your Libertarian friends, not me.
Every once in a while he sounds CP, but he’s LP. And would make a good candidate.
Jose is the Vice-Chairman of the Libertarian Party of Los Angeles County, and he’s also acting chairperson, since our chair isn’t finishing her term.
I believe José is a Libertarian.
Jose, are you a CP’er?
That’s not the same as hating Christ. An it is only a tiny percentage of Muslims who are extremist and/or violent. The US is actually doing a lot to radicalize Muslims with an interventionist foreign policy.
William Saturn:
Than why is it that in many Muslim countries Christians such as Coptic Christians have no basic human rights and are murdrered by Muslims because they do not follow the belifes of Mohamad and Islam? Muslims who belive in basic human rights, peace, and fellowship must say, “Enough!” Whenver someone is murdered in the name of Islam they must say, “Enough!” When a woman is stoned in the name of Islam they must say “Enough!” When Jewish children are murdered while traveling in a school bus on the way to elementry school they must say, “Enough!” When Americans are murdered in the name of Islam they must say, “Enough!” When an author is given a death sentence in the name of Islam they must say, “Enough!” When there are celebrations in the name of Islam on the death of Christians, Jews, Americans, Austrailians, French, Germans, Italians, Indians, they must say, “Enough!”
Muslims who belive in basic human rights, peace, and fellowship must take back their religion or else it will continue to be known as a religion of hate, terror, murder, and evil. And those murdered in the name of Islam will continue to cry out for justice.
Plus, Muslims can hardly be classified as Christ-haters since they view Jesus Christ as a prophet.
… Christ hating minority, such as witches, Muslims, sodomites, atheists and abortionists.
It’s ironic that he lumps Muslims and “sodomites” together, as most countries whose legal system is based on Islamic law have much tougher laws against sodomy, and a much lower opinion of “sodomites” in general, than that found in America, or in other predominantly Christian countries.
GET A HAIRCUT, you long haired hippy fag!
We too, can tell a book by it’s cover.
“Christ hating minority, such as witches, Muslims, sodomites, atheists and abortionists. Notice, their rallying cry, “Separation of Church and State,” means only the Church. It rarely includes Mosques, or Buddhist Temples, etc.”
As a REAL constitutionalist, I take issue with this comment because I have met many atheists, witches, and one or two Muslims in the political arena- that not only are opposed to the agenda of forcing religion out of the public square and taking away religious liberty, but even are Pro-Christian and respectful of our country’s moral and spiritual foundations on the Gospel.
I think that not only ego, but religious bigotry as well, is what is holding back constitutionalists from making a big difference in American politics and restoring government back to it’s original limitations.
