Leftists Rarely Show Conservatives Any Respect

The lack of civility, respect, decorum and truthfulness of the liberal leftist segment of our society knows absolutely no bounds. Their ugliness was in full force yesterday, as the ObamaBorg Bot Kool-Aid drinkers in the crowd jeered and verbally bashed President George W. Bush as he entered the inaugural festivities. These people could not even be respectful enough to just KEEP QUIET if they don't like the former president. But no! They had to show how truly classless they are by verbally abusing and bashing him one last time. Such a shame. Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder.

What is so hypocritical of them is that now that "their guy" is in the White House (fraudulently - but that's another post), they want everyone to be civil towards him. My question. Where was their civility (and Obama's in his speech when he gave a jab at President Bush) for the past eight years of Bush's presidency?

I have found that liberal bloggers don't usually show ANY respect for conservatives, period. This is true especially online. The people over at Digg are some of the worst examples of people who can't be civil and/or respectful towards those with whom they disagree. Instead of debating the issues, they attack the messengers. And don't even get me started on the Media of Mass Deception's treatment of conservatives/Christians!

Some liberals who comment here left some verbally abusive attacks against me and other Christian commenters. They get to say whatever they want and think that they should get away with it. However, if a Christian comes back with some solid and truthful information about - let's say - the Obamessiah, or the "No on Prop. 8 radicals - we are accused of being "hateful" or any other number of names.

The difference is that the leftists attack the person - because of who they are (or who and/or what they voted for); while the conservatives/Christians attack the leftists ideas, ideology, and ignorant rantings.

The leftists don't usually get away with a lot of their truly vile and hateful rhetoric here at this blog because of comment moderation. If you ever read what some "anonymous" bloggers have written, you'd be disgusted.

Occasionally, I will let the more "cleaned up" rants through in order to respond. This is what happened this morning.

I read a comment by GMPilot under the Election Bible Codes thread, and considered not publishing it. Then, I reconsidered and posted the comment. The following is a copy of the conversation between us:

Bible codes, now! Hoo boy!!

What's next...eviscerating a goat and "reading" its entrails?

BTW, Drosnin's code simply showed that Jeffrey's code is too ambiguous to be considered reliable, let alone a hidden message from some supernatural being.
Others have been down that road before, and it's always a dead end.
And what sort of a God who wants to reveal himself to everyone would create a 'code' whereby only certain people would know about him? (Well, a schizophrenic God would, but we won't go there.)

Besides, in December 2012, according to the Mayans and some others, the world will end anyway--just like it did when all the computers rolled over on Jan. 1, 2000 (the infamous Y2K "bug").

What's that? The world didn't end? How about that!

Codes in clothing! Sheesh!

"Plus, look at the ties! The Bushes and Obama are wearing blue ties, and Clinton and Carter are wearing red! Hmmmm...."

This sounds a lot like the old "code" supposedly used by gay men: a colored hankie in the left pocket meant one thing, but in the right pocket it meant something else...and the color of the hankie was also supposed to be significant. You used to be perceptive as well as strident. Now you've come to this: looking for codes in old texts and men's clothing.

Your desperation becomes greater with each succeeding post, hostess. It’s tragic. I’m waiting for when you decide to choose between sacrificing a virgin or a heifer.


Note the mocking tone of his comment. Par for the course - as they say - for this guy. Why do I continue to answer his bitter rantings? I don't really know. I would think by now (after so many years) that he would be tired of the banter. Any guesses why he isn't?

Anyway, here is my reply:

Christine: The text of the Bible alone is sufficient enough for people to discover God and answer the question that Jesus poses, "Who do you say that I am?"

In biblical times when Jesus physically walked the earth and ministered to the people there were plenty of mockers (like you GM) who dismissed Jesus' claims that he is God's Son who came as our Savior to die in our place on the cross at Calvary in order for all believers throughout all time to be reconciled back unto Holy God.

It is written that Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me." The Pharisees knew that the use of the terms "I am" was particularly significant. It was Jesus' outright claim to be God. Here was their long-awaited Messiah - God in the flesh - Immanuel. Yet they rejected him.

No one needs the Bible codes to believe in the Truth. However, they do show a mathematical form of genius within the text - particularly within the Torah.

Like I have written before, it matters not what Christian believers think of the Bible codes. What they think of God's written Word - the Bible, and God's Living Word - Jesus are what unites all born again believers in the single cause of evangelism - teaching and preaching Jesus Christ and him crucified.

You claim here that I USED to be perceptive, which means you thought:

You claim that I USED to be "strident," which means:

stri⋅dent   /ˈstraɪdnt/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [strahyd-nt] Show IPA Pronunciation

–adjective 1. making or having a harsh sound; grating; creaking: strident insects; strident hinges.
2. having a shrill, irritating quality or character: a strident tone in his writings.
3. Linguistics. (in distinctive feature analysis) characterized acoustically by noise of relatively high intensity, as sibilants, labiodental and uvular fricatives, and most affricates.


Origin:
1650–60; <>

Well then, if I was "keen in discernment" and also had "a shrill, irritating quality or character: a strident tone in his (her) writings., that must mean that you recognize the fact that through the skill of discernment afforded to me by the power of the Holy Spirit of God, I do share the truth of the Bible. However, being the nemesis that you have been over the years, you also admit to absolutely hating the way I share such revealed truth.

Yep...sounds about right!
There seems to be something that is uniquely strange about labeling me both "perceptive" and "strident" all in the same sentence. It's almost like GM is admitting that yes..."perceptive" Christine is sharing the truth here at this blog. However, since GM can't handle the truth he just loves to reject such truth by hurling an insult my way. Wow...sounds just like a typical liberal left loonie over at Digg!

In a previous blog post, I introduced a new website that I discovered called, American Prophet.org. I sent off an email note to the author of the excellent articles posted there, Rev. M. Bresciani, just to tell him how much I enjoyed and appreciated his essays. How kind of him to write back, thank me, and express appreciation for this blog. He placed a link to Talk Wisdom at his website! I was thrilled!

Last night, I also noticed this commentary placed at the American Prophet website:

I was pleased to find a website that thought so much of this site to make it their choice for "website of the week," and they included a re-print of one of my latest articles. I was even more pleased to find that their blog had some of the most intelligent, decent Christian bloggers I have found anywhere in quite a long time. Finding blogs that are well moderated decent and where you can actually learn something is growing harder each day so I must say I have added their site here as my "Website of the Week." Please enjoy a visit to Talk Wisdom Blogspot.


Thank you for your very kind words, Rev. Bresciani! Certainly appreciate it!

My dear Christian brothers and sisters who comment here at this blog - THANK YOU! Your intelligent, decent, and educational comments have not gone unnoticed by many, many visitors - including Rev. Bresciani!

I hope that readers here have taken the time to read many of the other essays over at American Prophet. They are intelligently written, decently presented, certainly educational and best of all - biblically-based commentaries! Everyone can benefit from reading them!

Take special note of Rev. Bresciani's message about the inauguration:

With the inauguration of Barack Obama looming there are countless millions of Americans who can't believe that the most liberal, un-vetted, un-accomplished little known politician in American history is about to become the 44th President of this great nation. For some it is a nation caught off guard by an unprecedented push of the liberal media who knew full well that America was almost totally distracted by, economic woes, Iraq and Hollywood and media's incessant Bush bashing. Several years of Lettermen's "Great Moments in Presidential Speeches" were specifically aimed at Bush and McCain was treated like a circus clown in many references and skits. To ask why such disdain and hatred would draw a blank stare and is much like asking a Nazi or a Muslim just why they have so much hatred for Jews. The answers if any were offered always sounds like a house of cards, flimsy and subject to the shaking of almost any other ideology and driven by raw basic stupidity. Here's my answer in a word, "demonic" or to be more theologically succinct in two words, "demonically driven." It would seem easy just to say "you get what you ask for" but since this nation is important to so many that would be incorrect. Keep up the fight!


We will!

Election Bible Codes

While reading at another blog, I came across some Bible Code information concerning the candidates during election 2008. One of the codes REALLY DISTURBED ME, and so I did not want to link to the website that was actually taking it upon themselves to "predict" what could possibly happen. That is not what typical Bible Code research is all about. Interpretation of the codes is generally more reliable after the fact.



I originally became interested in Bible Codes when I discovered the existence of Jesus the Messiah Codes via Grant Jeffrey's two books - "The Signature of God - Astonishing Biblical Discoveries" and "The Handwriting of God."

Today, I decided to go over to Bible Code Digest, which is (IMHO) a much more reliable source for researching Bible Codes.

There is a huge amount of information there!

First, I read the page that described both McCain and Obama - which were found prior to the election. Then, I reached a page which listed many, many more Bible code links.

Bible Code Digest

There are Christians who do not take the Bible Codes seriously. Some, in fact, claim that they are "extra-biblical" and therefore, do not qualify as being legitimate in any way. I can respect the views of those who think that way. However, many, many situations (including the terrorist attacks on 9/11) have been found in the Bible codes after the fact. Therefore, the codes are not necessarily predicting things (as in the occult), but are actually revealing what has already happened.

As an example, we could look at one of the codes listed on the Obama Code chart and see that it has already happened and is true.

The code states:



"Please, let the joyous B. Obama be wiped out - he is constructing for me many swindles."


The interpreter of the code states:



"He has an opponent who wishes to destroy him. The opponent appears to be jealous of him and accuses him of wrongdoing."


Now, we could interpret this person to be Hillary Clinton since she lost the Democratic nomination to Obama. Or, could this be a reference to the Philip J. Berg lawsuit?

So, we see that interpretation of these codes are not an exact science - mostly because of the impressions and biases of the people making the assumptions for their meaning.

Then again, there are codes that are totally unambiguous - like in the case of the 9/11/01 terrorists attacks on American soil.


Here are just a few of the codes (and accompanying interpretations) that I found quite interesting:

Startling Election Codes Surface: Part II The Barack Obama Codes

A Post-Election Look at
Pre-Election Code Findings


Note what the code authors state:



Three pre-election BCD issues presented Bible code findings about the various presidential and vice-presidential candidates.

While BCD does not believe that Bible codes can be reliably used to make predictions, it is our position that such codes typically represent expressions of well-known points-of-view. Many of these codes appear to hit that target. Check out our pre-election articles and see whether or not you agree.


On this page we find some codes that could represent negative things about Obama:



B. Obama (2.9)



B. Obama was enlightened to provide advice,
the exalted one will be compensated,
and from his might will emanate a flute.



The first phrase of the code could refer to Obama's education and preparation for the role of president. Regarding the second phrase, it would be quite a stretch to refer to any presidential candidate as the exalted one. However, Obama has been dubbed "the one" in the media (see CNN and The New York Times).

At first, we thought the last phrase, and from his might will emanate a flute, trailed off into baffling, albeit poetic, imagery, but then, we Googled "Obama flute" and discovered several references that may help our understanding of this code.

Power Line, February 16, 2008, The Return of Sister Flute

The Aspen Times, July 15, 2008, Obama: America's Rainbow Mood Ring

Barack Obama's Official Website, January 16, 2008, The Pied Piper of Truth

After looking up these references, we came away with the image of Obama's rhetoric acting upon his audiences like the music from the flute of the Pied Piper, which is actually not a very flattering reference. Here is an excerpt from the plot synopsis of the fable The Pied Piper of Hamelin from Wikipedia.

In 1284, while the town of Hamelin was suffering from a rat infestation, a man dressed in colourful garments appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. He promised the townsmen a solution for their problem with the rats. The townsmen in turn promised to pay him for the removal of the rats. The man accepted, and thus played a musical pipe to lure the rats with a song into the Weser River, where all of them drowned. Despite his success, the people reneged on their promise and refused to pay the rat-catcher. The man left the town angrily, but returned some time later, seeking revenge.

While the inhabitants were in church, he played his pipe again, this time attracting the children of Hamelin. One hundred and thirty boys and girls followed him out of the town, where they were lured into a cave and never seen again. Depending on the version, at most two children remained behind (one of whom was lame and could not follow quickly enough, the other one was deaf and followed the other children out of curiosity) who informed the villagers of what had happened when they came out of the church.

On the one hand, the idea of Obama being able to sway audiences with his charismatic rhetoric can be romaticized like that of the Pied Piper playing his flute to lure the rats out of town, but the latter part of the Pied Piper story raises questions of how will this charisma ultimately be used and what motivations lurk beneath the surface?


[Note: If you go to the Bible Code site, you can click on the links to the accompanying articles in the quoted text above.]

The following one is an example of what I found most disturbing at the other site that discussed some of the codes mentioning Obama.



Joe Biden was conspiring for him while saturating and exhausting. He was declining a shot [a bullet?] under a high place, and struck some monument.

The last code could perhaps be alluding to fears of a possible assassination attempt against Obama.


However, if you click on the October 29, 2008 posting about the Palin and Biden codes we read:




Joe Biden Code #2—



Joe Biden was conspiring for him while saturating and exhausting –
he was declining shot under a high place, and struck some monument.



Comments: If this code refers to the campaign, it could be referring to Biden's behavior during the campaign in a negative light. If so, it would imply that Biden's campaign as Obama's running mate is being conducted in a conspiring manner. Without more information, it is unclear what a high place and some monument are, unless perhaps they are symbols of the presidency or of Washington, D.C.



*****



Joe Biden Code #4—



You emerged in the cell near the site of Joe Biden.



Comments: Perhaps the site of Joe Biden refers to Biden's stance on different political topics or his political agenda. Since Biden has been in politics for many more years than Obama, then you emerged in the cell near the site could refer to Obama emerging on the scene having a similar political agenda as Biden's. Another possible meaning for site could refer to his website.


Some of the codes have turned out to be astonishingly accurate! Especially when we read the "Obama Table" on this page.

I find such research quite fascinating.

What do you think about these Bible codes? What do you think about the discovery of Bible Codes in general?
