Explain the Dark Age of Obama | Matt | Thursday, June 11, 2009 |
Question: Why would this site refer to the passage of time as the "Dark Age of Obama"? Obama's the best thing that's happened to this nation since Harry Truman. I'd really like an explanation. Aside from the fact that the comment is political rather than religious, it's unchristian. What is wrong with the people behind St. Mike.org and why won't they answer this question directly? Why do they foist it off onto this so-called forum, as if truth is determined by vote? Thanks. |

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM
Dear Matt: Well, we have some problems here. A good Christian does not make judgments based upon the sin of rash judgment. Yet you have done so twice. First, You accuse us of being unchristian, yet you have not heard our explanation yet! Second, you accuse us of not answering your question directly. Sir, this is a direct answer to your question in this forum. As was explained to you in the letter you received in response to your original private email, we receive hundreds of emails. Since there are only so many hours in a day, and there can be many people with the same question, it is proper to ask such questions in this forum. I would be violating the stewardship of the time God has given me if I were to answer every private email when the question can be posted here for all to read. Here, I can answer the question once, instead of hundreds of times in private email. Thus, we politely referred you to this forum. What part of this do you not understand? Now as to your question about the Dark Age of Obama: Obama is the most pro baby killing President in the history of the United States. That alone is enough to call this the Dark Age of Obama. It is truly a dark age when there is no protection at all for unborn babies from conception to birth, and maybe even after birth. Obama has either already written Executive Orders, signed legislation, or promises to sign legislation that not only promotes unmitigated and unabashed killing of babies, but seeks to remove all restrictions of any sort on abortion. Although the provision may not pass, the Obama regime was in favor of removing the "conscience" clause for medical workers that would force them to participate in abortion. Obama also wished to force returned wounded soldiers to get their own health insurance instead of the Veterans Administration caring for them. He backed off only after major protest. He has appointed person after person with questionable ethics including a pro-pornography attorney and a rapidly pro-abortion person. He spits at the Catholic Church time and time again in appointing supposed Catholics into his regime who are actually Catholic in name only. His speech at Notre Dame proves the lack of integrity of this man. More than 75 Bishops and 360,000 Catholics protested his presence at Notre Dame and especially the honorary degree they gave him (in direct rebellion to the Church's directives on this). The local bishop boycotted the commencement. With all this a man of integrity, who allegedly wishes to build bridges rather than cause divisiveness, would have declined the invitation (that should never have been extended in the first place). This man's economic policies are leading us into European socialism, and his political policies are leading us into a kind of fascism. Our Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves. He snubs the Queen of England and the Prime Minister of England, but gives a profound bow, that no President should ever give to anyone, to the Muslim King of Saudi Arabia. As I wrote in my blog:
Then there is one of the most recent stupid lies out of his mouth when he said that the given our Muslim population, the United States is one of the largest Muslim nations in the world. Really? The Muslim population in the United States is 6 tenths of 1 percent. The Christian population is 76%. Syria has 10% Christians. With Obama's fuzzy math that would make Syria a one of the largest Christian nations. In fact, the Muslim population is among the LOWEST percentages as well as raw numbers of the major non-Muslim countries. For example, according to the CIA World Fact Book Germany has 3% Muslims, Great Britain has 2.7%, France has 5-10%. In what fantasyland is this guy living to make such absurd statements. This guy is out-of-control. All but perhaps the one paragraph above is of concern to Religion. The paragraph above speaks mostly to stupidity, or perhaps to an ulterior motive, but may also relate to Religion as it speaks to the credibility and integrity of our President, which affects us all. The Church teaches that we are to imbue our political and social world with the Gospel of Christ. In this regard, Obama is a sort of antichrist in that the way he thinks and acts has no relationship to Christ. The Church has direct concern over justice, including economic justice, and over freedom, including political freedom, as these things affect the dignity of the human person. And I could go on and on and on. For those with the strength to follow Obama's antics, it will take an encyclopedia of books to report them all by the time he is out of office, hopefully in four years. This is not about politics per se, this is about times that are very dark not only for Christians, but for the world. We have truly entered the Dark Ages, where life is cheaper than ever before and Truth is a virtue foreign to our ears at levels not before seen in this country. It is said that Truth is the first casualty of war. We are at war, a culture war and the enemy General is Obama. By the way, you identified yourself as a Catholic, yet you call Obama the best thing since Truman? Well, sir, if you voted for Obama then you gravely sinned. Many bishops spoke out and declared this. To vote for Obama is sin to a Catholic. A Catholic cannot vote for a pro-abortion candidate. This point has also been stated by our Holy Father. So if you voted for Obama, you need to confess it in the Sacrament of Confession. Of course, you can only be forgiven if you are sorry for your sin. I pray that you will not risk your soul in this way and repent of your support of the greatest evil we have witnessed since Hitler; not in the same way as Hitler, of course, but just as evil in other ways. God Bless,
