		<description>I believe that all things things must take place. I believe these things are prophetic and must set the stage for the NWO and Anti-Christ.

So, I truly believe that many HAD to vote for Obama. Because this is what the &#039;world&#039; wants and the world is blind. They do not understand the things of God and for the most part have pushed God out of everything in this country.

The seeds she has sown,. she is about to reap right here in this nation.

The seeds of disobedience in the garden that day are a result of all this we see.

Things things can&#039;t be stopped, it is all a part of the plan of God to serve his purpose and eventually do away with ALL evil.

For now, we can&#039;t expect  peace and perfection on this earth....Until the Lord rules again.</description>

		<description>I would have to say that perhaps most Christians are victims of propaganda.  They&#039;re not suspicious or thinking there&#039;s agenda&#039;s hiding behind every bush.  And they tend to believe the best in people.  That said, they are unwittingly indoctrinated 24/7 by tv, radio, internet, music, schools, leaders, organizations, etc. I think it&#039;s hard for most people to swallow the idea that there&#039;s an agenda in the school systems to indoctrinate their kids.  However, I think close to 55 million Americans, those who voted McCain might suspect something.

As I understand it, we lost big in 2006 and in 2008 because &quot;principled conservatives&quot; refused to vote to &quot;send a message&quot;. They didn&#039;t want to vote for the lesser of 2 evils.  But look where this has gotten us! The economic crisis since 2006 and now a new leader who demands people adore him. Though in theory not voting for the lesser of 2 evils seems like an honorable thing, look where it gets us on the hard streets of reality!!!

And from what I&#039;ve read, many conservatives voted thatone to send a message to Bush and/or out of misplaced compassion to elect the first AA so they can assuage themselves of racism.  So they can do their pentence, their act of reaching out.  

I think what Christians need is a healthy dose of skepticism. And not getting caught up in emotion.</description>

		<description>God does not call Christians to fix all the social sin problems of the world or to make their nation Christian. That is impossible in a world blinded by the prince of the power of the air.

We are to preach the gospel and live like He said.

Mic 6:8  He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

My problem is not with Christians who are walking in the Spirit and doing what they should be doing, my problem is with those who call themselves Christians but either do the things or abet those who do the things that will bring judgment on the world.

The best we can do other than setting people free with the gospel is to set good example and help put people in government who have integrity and good values. In a democratic republic this is done by promoting and voting for such men.

For those living like Christians there will be persecution in this world. We have already been told that, so we should not be surprised when persecution comes from the world and fouls the little paradise that we set up in our own backyard.</description>

		<description>[[[America is not full of good, decent, hard-working, God fearing people. The people they nominate and elect prove that, the laws they allow prove that, the drugs and 2.2 million in prison prove that, the amount of people living on the dole prove that, the crap they allow to be taught in their schools prove that, the corruption in their churches prove that, the fifth on TV and the Internet prove that, etc, etc.]]]

I hear what you&#039;re saying but what are Christians supposed to do other than what they&#039;re doing?  Storm school buildings and demand XYZ? Are they supposed to push their way on everyone?  We&#039;re not like Muslims where we can sort of bully or intimidate people into our line of thinking. Secular humanists really have nothing to fear from Christians because what are they going to do? See what I&#039;m saying Don?

In terms of the drug issue, what is the average Christian supposed to do?  There are some part of organizations or who&#039;ve started organizations to oppose it. But they only can do so much. And what about politics? As I understand it, evangelicals turned out and voted in this election.  Bush promoted himself as a born again Christian and took heavy flak from it.  and other Christians conservatives got caught up in bad things but we&#039;re all human and flawed, no one&#039;s perfect. The average Christian is stuck busting their proverbial behind trying to support a family and pay taxes that support others.  Many of them are just trying to stay afloat.  They have their own problems and problems in their families and with friends they have to deal with.  I guess my point is, real people with real lives and issues can only do so much.  And when it comes to disasters like Katrina and Ike, good decent, God-fearing people are there front and center helping out.  All of the recent natural disasters prove this.  The fact America sends more money than any country or even the Fed Gov to help the poor around the world proves this.</description>

		<description>Just to prove my point that the danger I suggested is not exaggerated here is a article  posted today on Steve Quayle&#039;s very popular website. (Why even post such rantings?)

http://www.stevequayle.com/News.alert/08_Money/08_Mac_Attack/081106.Ubangastan.html

What good is going to come from people like this? I would not want to be Secret Service Agent responsible for his secruity. There are people who actually desire to start a civil war and they will go after Obama and the government to start it.  Unfortunately this insanity has just begun.

The government is very aware of the danger

		<description>Don, thanks a lot for your clarification. I have a much better picture of the whole thing now. I hope that Obama may repent of his false and destructive beliefs before it&#039;s too late.</description>

		<description>God is fair, America will get what the people deserve. There are over a hundred million real Christians in China just praying for more religious freedom but they do not get it in their nation because God deals with nations fairly. A nation reaps what it sows just as people do. Even more is required of a nation that was truly blessed by God and then rejects Him and His ways.
America will only be restored if it returns to doing what is right. 

America is not full of good, decent, hard-working, God fearing people. The people they nominate and elect prove that, the laws they allow prove that, the drugs and 2.2 million in prison prove that, the amount of people living on the dole prove that, the crap they allow to be taught in their schools prove that, the corruption in their churches prove that, the fifth on TV and the Internet prove that, etc, etc. 

There is a remnant of God fearing people in America but they are a minority but God does not judge nations on the size of His remnant. However, God will judge nations on how they treat His remnant.</description>

		<description>Don,

In India recently there was an election where a certain party was on track to win -big. And this party persecuted the Christians.  So the Indian Christians started praying and another party which was sympathetic to the Indian Christians won a landslide victory.  I don&#039;t think the average US person deserves a BlackPantherMarxist dangerous man for prez. Even today I keep hearing all these reports of how Christians were praying fervently.  People are scared.  And Palin who is a devout Christian was brutally attacked in the media, her whole family. I can&#039;t think that with so many praying and fasting that God would leave her like that. America is full of good, decent, hard-working, God fearing people. This morning I woke up early, couldn&#039;t get back to sleep and I prayed and finally grieved for what&#039;s happened. After praying I think it dawned on me that instead of offering mercy or another 4 years of status quo, God may be quite angry and the victor in this election is His tool for judgement.  And that severe judgement is coming and that maybe God will raise a new America out of the ashes?</description>

		<description>I do not know if you consider sometime within the next decade long term or short term. I say the secession will begin around 2013AD after the heartland conservative states figure out that the deck was stacked against them in the 2012 elections and that there is no democratic solution. I Don&#039;t know if it will result in civil war or not that depends on the actions and reactions. Of course civil war could come sooner as a result of an EMP attack or WMD attack with government actions and overreactions.

The big differences you see between the states is due to conservative religious beliefs in the heartland. The more rural heartland states have not been as corrupted by postmodern liberalism although some of their young have been brainwashed by the public schools. As Obama has said, &quot;they still cling to their religion and guns&quot;, but to them that is the right thing to do to prevent government tyranny. The liberals mock them and will now try to force their ways on them and that will increasingly bring division. 

Those states that switched this year have not had any great liberal awaking. You would have seen a different outcome had Obama been white.  Many were voting for a black man period. 95 percent of blacks voted for Obama yet many of them are religious and would never have voted for a white man with his convictions. Also, apparently many conservatives did not vote at all because they had no one to vote for.  They were expecting as many as 140 million votes this year but only 120 million showed up because conservatives stayed home. If the Republicans would have put up a strong conservative the Republican percentages in the heartland states would have been higher. Nevada and New Mexico are Democrat because of the increasing Hispanic populations.

In some ways this election does not reflect the true division between the heartland and the coastal states. In this election people were blaming Bush and the Republicans for the economy because they were brainwashed by the media to believe that they were responsible. In reality the economy is a result of the whole nation living beyond its means for a generation. It did not start with Bush. However, Bush, the Republicans, and the free enterprise system got blamed for people living beyond their means for the last forty years. The crash had to come eventually.

There is no quick fix for the economy and Democrat tax and spend big government policies will only make things worse. Disillusionment will come quickly when people find that out. Social unrest will become explosive when unemployment figures soar. Government will have to choose between higher taxes across the board to pay for government welfare programs, social unrest, or much higher deficits. Choosing higher taxes will only make things worse and it will alienate the middle class. Higher deficits will decimate the dollar and also make things worse. Like I said, the American nightmare is about to play out.  No president will solve our economic problems in the near future but they will be blamed for the failures.</description>

The more rural heartland states have not been as corrupted by postmodern liberalism although some of their young have been brainwashed by the public schools. As Obama has said, &#8220;they still cling to their religion and guns&#8221;, but to them that is the right thing to do to prevent government tyranny. The liberals mock them and will now try to force their ways on them and that will increasingly bring division. </p>
<p>Those states that switched this year have not had any great liberal awaking. You would have seen a different outcome had Obama been white.  Many were voting for a black man period. 95 percent of blacks voted for Obama yet many of them are religious and would never have voted for a white man with his convictions. Also, apparently many conservatives did not vote at all because they had no one to vote for.  They were expecting as many as 140 million votes this year but only 120 million showed up because conservatives stayed home. If the Republicans would have put up a strong conservative the Republican percentages in the heartland states would have been higher. Nevada and New Mexico are Democrat because of the increasing Hispanic populations.</p>
<p>In some ways this election does not reflect the true division between the heartland and the coastal states. In this election people were blaming Bush and the Republicans for the economy because they were brainwashed by the media to believe that they were responsible. In reality the economy is a result of the whole nation living beyond its means for a generation. It did not start with Bush. However, Bush, the Republicans, and the free enterprise system got blamed for people living beyond their means for the last forty years. The crash had to come eventually.</p>
<p>There is no quick fix for the economy and Democrat tax and spend big government policies will only make things worse. Disillusionment will come quickly when people find that out. Social unrest will become explosive when unemployment figures soar. Government will have to choose between higher taxes across the board to pay for government welfare programs, social unrest, or much higher deficits. Choosing higher taxes will only make things worse and it will alienate the middle class. Higher deficits will decimate the dollar and also make things worse. Like I said, the American nightmare is about to play out.  No president will solve our economic problems in the near future but they will be blamed for the failures.</p>
