One of the two police officers shot by a gunman outside the Pentagon says he is doing fine and credits God for shielding him. Pentagon police Officer Jeffery Amos declined to answer questions about the shooting when reached by telephone by The Associated Press. Officials said Amos and Officer Marvin Carraway were wounded when a gunman identified as John Patrick Bedell opened fire at the entrance to the Pentagon Thursday night. Bedell was mortally wounded by return fire. Amos and Carraway were treated for superficial wounds. They have been released from the hospital. Amos told the AP: “I just thank the Lord that he shielded me when all of this took place.”

Voodoo religion’s role in helping Haiti’s quake victims

waluum — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 22:29:17 +0000

Haiti’s traditional religion has kept a low profile in the aftermath of the earthquake. The songs and prayers heard amid the rubble and tent cities around Port-au-Prince are overwhelmingly Christian. The voodoo religion may be practised by many Haitians – the exact number is unknown – and has not been totally absent from the aid effort. Louis Leslie Marcelin, another singer who also describes himself as a spiritual guide and healer, has used his home in Port-au-Prince as an alternative school and a care centre. “We work with children and parents,” he says. “We work with poor people whose relatives have died.” But such efforts by voodoo leaders have been few and far between. The bulk of the religious relief aid work in Haiti has been carried out by Catholic and Protestant groups. “For a religion that’s supposedly the national religion of the Haitian people, it’s amazingly absent in the earthquake phenomena,” says Gerald Murray, a University of Florida anthropologist who has carried out extensive fieldwork in Haiti.

Vice Guide to Travel: Heaven and Hell in Liberia

waluum — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 04:35:58 +0000

VBS travels to West Africa to rummage through the messy remains of a country ravaged by 14 years of civil war. Despite the United Nation’s eventual intervention, most of Liberia’s young people continue to live in abject poverty, surrounded by filth, drug addiction, and teenage prostitution. The former child soldiers who were forced into war have been left to fend for themselves, the murderous warlords who once led them in cannibalistic rampages have taken up as so-called community leaders, and new militias are lying in wait for the opportunity to reclaim their country from a government they rightly mistrust.

Generation Hex: Wicca is the fastest-growing religion in America

waluum — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 23:32:18 +0000

While many Christians today are closely monitoring the growth and activity of Islam, especially after 9/11, another religious movement has been steadily growing “under the radar” and could become among the largest religions in the United States in less than five years. “Wicca is the fastest-growing religion in America, set to be the third largest religion by 2012,” claims Marla Alupoaicei, who co-wrote the recently released book “Generation Hex” with fellow Christian author Dillon Burroughs. “The numbers of adherents are doubling every 30 months,” she says. Furthermore, every major city in the United States has networks of Wiccans, adds Burroughs.

Moscow mayor calls gay pride march ‘Satanic’

The mayor of Moscow, known for his overtly homophobic statements, said Monday that he would never allow a gay pride parade in the city, calling it “Satanic” and saying marchers should be punished. “A gay parade… cannot be called anything but a Satanic act,” Yury Luzhkov told an education conference, quoted by Interfax news agency. “We haven’t permitted such a parade and we won’t permit it in the future.” Luzhkov called for gay marchers to be punished. “It’s high time that we stop propagating nonsense discussions about human rights, and bring to bear on them the full force and justice of the law,” he said.

Furor Erupts Over Atheist Display At Illinois State Capitol

waluum — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 22:48:33 +0000

William J. Kelly announced Tuesday that he planned to take down the sign put up by the Freedom from Religion Foundation, and on Wednesday, he tried to make good on his plan. But Kelly said when he turned the sign around so it was face down, state Capitol police were quick to escort him away. Illinois Secretary of State’s office spokeswoman Henry Haupt said Kelly was escorted from the rotunda by state Capitol police, who briefly detained him, wrote an incident report, and directed him to leave the building. “It doesn’t matter how we feel about the message on a display,” Haupt said. “Our obligation is to protect the property within the state Capitol building, and we would do the same for any other display.”

The sign reads: “At the time of the winter solstice, let reason prevail. There are no gods, no devils, no angels, no heaven or hell. There is only our natural world. Religion is just myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds.”

Inconvenient truth for Al Gore as his North Pole sums don’t add up

waluum — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:45:23 +0000

Mr Gore, speaking at the Copenhagen climate change summit, stated the latest research showed that the Arctic could be completely ice-free in five years. In his speech, Mr Gore told the conference: “These figures are fresh. Some of the models suggest to Dr [Wieslav] Maslowski that there is a 75 per cent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years.” However, the climatologist whose work Mr Gore was relying upon dropped the former Vice-President in the water with an icy blast. “It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at,” Dr Maslowski said. “I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.” Mr Gore’s office later admitted that the 75 per cent figure was one used by Dr Maslowksi as a “ballpark figure” several years ago in a conversation with Mr Gore.

Nikola Tesla, as far back as 1899, was playing with his magnifying transmitter. He received a signal of patterns, what he called ‘counting codes.’ This was in fact the first cosmic radio signal ever detected. He believed it was either from Venus or Mars, and that he was the first to receive a message from another civilization. The Red Cross proceeded to ask him what will mankind’s greatest achievement be in the 21st Century. Here is his response.

Ahmadinejad reportedly claims he has documented evidence that the U.S. is blocking the return of Mahdi, the Imam believed by Muslims to be the savior. “We have documented proof that they believe that a descendant of the prophet of Islam will raise in these parts and he will dry the roots of all injustice in the world,” Ahmadinejad said during a speech on Monday, according to Al Arabiya. “They have devised all these plans to prevent the coming of the Hidden Imam because they know that the Iranian nation is the one that will prepare the grounds for his coming and will be the supporters of his rule,” Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.

Saudi Arabia steps up hunt for ‘witches’ and ‘black magicians’

waluum — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 22:29:34 +0000

When the popular 46-year-old Lebanese psychic Ali Sibat went on-air and made his predictions about the future, the phone lines of the satellite television station Sheherazade used to be flooded with calls. But what the star psychic probably did not predict was that his claims to supernatural prowess would land him a death sentence. “He was the most popular psychic on the channel,” the Lebanese news agency Naharnet quoted Sibat’s lawyer May Khansa as saying. “The number of callers, including from all over the gulf, spiked in number when he appeared.” But while on pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia last year, Sibat was spotted by religious police in the holy city of Medina. Their job it is to battle vice and uphold virtue in the ultraconservative kingdom. So they arrested Sibat in his room at the Medina Hotel on charges of sorcery. On Nov. 9, Sibat was given a death sentence by a Mecca court for allegedly practicing witchcraft. Sibat’s fate is common in Saudi Arabia.

Pope Benedict met artists from around the world in the Sistine Chapel on Saturday and urged them to inject spirituality into their work, saying contemporary beauty was often “illusory and deceitful.” The Pope told the gathering of hundreds of painters, sculptors, architects, poets and directors, held beneath the vaulted ceiling of the chapel painted by Michelangelo, that he wanted to “renew the Church’s friendship with the world of art.” “Beauty … can become a path toward the transcendent, toward the ultimate Mystery, toward God,” Benedict said.

This year marks the bicentennial of Charles Darwin’s birthday and, coincidentally, 150 years since the publication of his book On the Origin of Species. One of the most influential books in modern history, it has helped shape philosophy, biology, sociology and religion in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. But both Darwin’s theory and his book are doomed by major flaws.

When E.T. Phones The Pope: Are We Alone?

This week the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy of Sciences is holding its first major conference on astrobiology, the new science that seeks to find life elsewhere in the cosmos and to understand how it began on Earth. Convened on private Vatican grounds in the elegant Casina Pio IV, formerly the pope’s villa, the unlikely gathering of prominent scientists and religious leaders shows that some of the most tradition-bound faiths are seriously contemplating the possibility that life exists in myriad forms beyond this planet. Astrobiology has arrived, and religious and social institutions — even the Vatican — are taking note.

Scientists Create Sperm And Eggs From Stem Cells

waluum — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:46:43 +0000

Human eggs and sperm have been grown in the laboratory in research which could change the face of parenthood. It paves the way for a cure for infertility and could help those left sterile by cancer treatment to have children who are biologically their own. But it raises a number of moral and ethical concerns. These include the possibility of children being born through entirely artificial means, and men and women being sidelined from the process of making babies. Opponents argue that it is wrong to meddle with the building blocks of life and warn that the advances taking place to tackle infertility risk distorting and damaging relations between family members. The U.S. government-funded research also offers the prospect of a ‘miracle pill’ which staves off the menopause, allowing women to wait longer to have a child.

Africa bishops speak of Obama in religious terms

waluum — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 21:00:30 +0000

African bishops attending a Vatican meeting are speaking about the election of Barack Obama in divine terms—putting them very much at odds with many of their U.S. counterparts. Archbishop Gabriel Charles Palmer-Buckle of Accra, Ghana said Wednesday that there was “a divine plan behind” Obama’s election. “It’s like the biblical story repeating itself,” he told reporters, citing the Old Testament figure Joseph, who after being sold into slavery in Egypt ends up becoming a top official. “We believe God has his own plans. God directs history,” he said of the U.S. election. “We pray that it (Obama’s presidency) brings blessings for Africa and the whole world.” He acknowledged that Obama has earned the wrath of many conservative American bishops because of his support for abortion rights. Earlier this year, dozens of U.S. bishops denounced the leading U.S. Catholic university, Notre Dame, for giving Obama an honorary degree. “We are definitely aware of it,” Palmer-Buckle said. “But we feel it our duty to meet him and find out what are the things that unite us more than divide us.”

The New World Order and The Demise of the Dollar

In the most profound financial change in recent Middle East history, Gulf Arabs are planning – along with China, Russia, Japan and France – to end dollar dealings for oil, moving instead to a basket of currencies including the Japanese yen and Chinese yuan, the euro, gold and a new, unified currency planned for nations in the Gulf Co-operation Council, including Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait and Qatar. Secret meetings have already been held by finance ministers and central bank governors in Russia, China, Japan and Brazil to work on the scheme, which will mean that oil will no longer be priced in dollars.

Ultra-Orthodox Jews accused of fight to keep ‘Jews for Jesus’ out

Israel is using an ultra-Orthodox group to crack down on Messianic Jews – who believe that Jesus is the Messiah – and prevent them from staying in the country, officials have told The Times. The Messianic Jews have been accused of Christian missionary activities and complain of harassment and intimidation by the state. An official at the Interior Ministry said that an anti-assimilation group called Yad L’Achim was working with the ministry to prevent Messianic Jews – known as Jews for Jesus – from being allowed to live in Israel, which they consider their spiritual home. “There is a known history of Yad L’Achim working directly with the ministry. They play a distinct role in the ministry’s decision about citizenry,” the official said.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama tells CBN news that “America is no longer just a Christian nation” and laid out ways both religious conservatives and liberals can begin to find common ground: “I think that the right might worry a bit more about the dangers of sectarianism. Whatever we once were, we’re no longer just a Christian nation; we are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers. We should acknowledge this and realize that when we’re formulating policies from the state house to the Senate floor to the White House, we’ve got to work to translate our reasoning into values that are accessible to every one of our citizens, not just members of our own faith community.”

Community members are rallying around Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High School cheerleaders after they were banned from displaying signs with Bible verses urging fans and players to “commit to the Lord” and “take courage and do it.” Catoosa County Schools spokeswoman Marissa Brower said a Fort Oglethorpe resident lodged a verbal complaint to Superintendent Denia Reese last week, saying that the display of a Bible verse on the football field is a violation of federal law. The mayor said football coach John Allen made the signs a tradition around 2003 and it has continued ever since. “If it’s offensive to anyone, let them go watch another football game,” he said. “Nobody’s forced to come there and nobody’s forced to read the signs.”

British Medical Journal: Birth control could help combat climate change

Giving contraceptives to people in developing countries could help fight climate change by slowing population growth, experts said Friday. More than 200 million women worldwide want contraceptives, but don’t have access to them, according to an editorial published in the British medical journal, Lancet. That results in 76 million unintended pregnancies every year. If those women had access to free condoms or other birth control methods, that could slow rates of population growth, possibly easing the pressure on the environment, the editors say.

Scientists are only months away from creating artificial life, it was claimed yesterday. Dr Craig Venter – one of the world’s most famous and controversial biologists – said his U.S. researchers have overcome one of the last big hurdles to making a synthetic organism. The first artificial lifeform is likely to be a simple man-made bacterium that proves that the technology can work. But it will be followed by more complex bacteria that turn coal into cleaner natural gas, or algae that can soak up carbon dioxide and convert it into fuels. They could also be used to create new vaccines and antibiotics.

Did Jesus give us the name of the Antichrist?

Rabbi Dan Ehrenkrantz, president of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College (RRC), of Wyncote, PA, originally alluded in a July 31, 2009 Salon.com article that Christ’s statement in Luke 10:18 (”I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven”) translates to “I saw Satan as Barak Uvamah.” This updated version of the previous viral video on this topic claims to be more accurate, provides evidence from the Hebrew Dictionary to support their claim that the more proper translation is “I saw Satan as Baraq Bamah.” They do not, however, claim that this definitively states the name of the Antichrist.

Obama to Rabbis: “We are God’s partners in matters of life and death”

“We are God’s partners in matters of life and death,” Obama said, according to Moline (paging Sarah Palin…), quoting from the Rosh Hashanah prayer that says that in the holiday period, it is decided “who shall live and who shall die.” The president ended the call by wishing the rabbis “shanah tovah,” or happy new year — in reference to the High Holidays a month from now.

Secret Plans: Sometimes Conspiracies Happen

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 07:15:34 +0000

I think I understand why we have contempt for conspiracy theories: No one wants to be the National Enquirer. (Although, wasn’t it the National Enquirer that broke the John Edwards extramarital affair story?) Liberals and conservatives may hate each other, but they cozy up like Herod and Pilate after Good Friday when it comes to disdain for the big “C” word. If anyone out there is conspiring against this country, the best thing he has going for him is our snobbery regarding conspiracy theories. But conspiracy theory is right up our alley as Christians. We see conspiracy from the day a garden fruit was sampled at the behest of a serpent who came in secret to plot the original power-grab. There was a cover-up, and there was finger-pointing when the little cabal was exposed. Conspiracy is vintage Christianity.

New Video Shows DNA Evidence for Intelligent Design

A new video, Journey Inside The Cell, launched today at www.SignatureInTheCell.com dramatically illustrates the evidence for intelligent design within DNA, as described in Stephen C. Meyer’s book, Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design (HarperOne 2009). The original animation by Light Productions reveals in intricate detail how the digital information in DNA directs protein synthesis inside the cell, revealing a world of molecular machines and nano-processors communicating digital information.

India hit for rising religious violence

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 06:29:33 +0000

An independent U.S. agency on Wednesday criticized the Indian government’s “inadequate” response to growing religious hatred, saying attacks and violent riots are on the rise. The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) released a harsh assessment of India’s ability and interest in protecting Christian and Muslim minorities from organized attacks. Plenty of laws are in place, the 14-page report noted, but police and government officials often do little to enforce them.

Muslim radicals behead Christian orphan workers in Somalia

Four Christians working in Somalia to provide services to orphans have been executed by beheading by al-Qaida-linked interests who told their families that is the penalty for apostasy. The report on the outrage comes from International Christian Concern, which said the executions took place sometime after the kidnapping of the Christians July 27, but it only discovered the tragedy recently.

Christian Missionaries attacked in India and accused of bribery

An anti-Christian extremist group attacked two Gospel for Asia missionaries after the missionaries showed a film about Jesus. The missionaries, Jayant Mehta and Dayanand Tambe, were attacked late on the night of August 8 as they packed up their film and audio equipment after they showed the “Man of Mercy” movie in Maharashtra, India. The screening, which was held at a believer’s home, was deemed successful by GFA as many of the villagers came to watch the film.

New FCC official: ‘Fairness Doctrine never repealed’

“Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski recently appointed Mark Lloyd, a former senior fellow at the George Soros-funded Center for American Progress, to be the FCC’s ‘chief diversity officer,’” says Brad O’Leary, author of “Shut Up America: The End of Free Speech.” “Lloyd is a proponent of the ‘Fairness Doctrine’ and recently wrote that the doctrine, and other regulatory tools such as localism and diversity mandates, should be employed by the FCC to limit the number of conservative voices on the air and supplant them with liberal voices. He also suggests fining conservative radio stations up to $250 million and giving the proceeds to the government-subsidized Corporation for Public Broadcasting.”

Founded by Dave Welch (who remains Executive Director), Houston Area Pastor Council was founded in 2003 as a trans-denominational, inter-racial coalition of senior pastors who came together to bring a united, Biblical voice to the city, state and even nation. They have grown to nearly 200 senior pastors in the greater Houston area as well as assisted in developing Pastor Councils in Austin, Beaumont and other cities around the country, birthing the identity of U.S. Pastor Council to connect those teams of pastors.

When The Godly Govern

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 05:58:55 +0000

What we do know is that when men are governed by the God recognized by the ancestors of Western Civilization as Jehovah, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Holy Trinity of Christianity – love, self-sacrifice, sharing, good works, peace, cultural transformation and political liberty are the fruits. In spite of numerous periods where those claiming the name of Christ violated much if not all He taught either ecclesiastically or politically, the historical evidence is that when followers of Jesus Christ live out “all He commanded them” (Matthew 28:22), they brought life, light, hope and bottom-up transformation to the nations.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice.” (Proverbs 29:2)

Candidly Speaking: Evangelicals: An appreciation

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 05:46:47 +0000

A prominent American Jewish leader recently told me that the passionate standing ovation he received after addressing 4,000 participants at John Hagee’s Christians United for Israel rally in Washington was reminiscent of the fervent Zionist gatherings he attended as a youngster. The two-day Evangelical Christian parley was designed to express support for Israel, receive updates on the current challenges facing the Jewish state and lobby congressmen in support of Israel. They heard addresses from Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu via satellite, Sen. Joe Lieberman, Ambassador Michael Oren, Malcolm Hoenlein of the Presidents’ Conference and others.

Entering an anti-Christian era

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 05:43:31 +0000

Biblical and secular history reveals that true followers of God have always been in the minority. The Bible itself confirms that fact. Yet, their influence and moral standards have penetrated deeply into all the world. They have steered many other religions toward less superstition and less radical activities such as human sacrifices, immorality, etc. Although over one-third of the world’s population characterize themselves as “Christian”, there is a very small percentage who live the devout and dedicated life as required by the Holy Scriptures.

Darwin Lobbyists Urge Ban on “Dangerous” Words in State Science Standards

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 04:01:37 +0000

If you needed more evidence that the Darwin lobby wants to turn science education into little more than unquestioned propaganda, take a look at the outlandish new “study” evaluating state science standards published by two officials of the National Center for Science Education, the leading Darwin-only lobbying group. Published by a journal devoted to the one-sided teaching of evolution, the article by Louise Mead and Anton Mates condemns various states for filling their science standards with “dangerous” words and “creationist jargon.” Just what are these “dangerous” words that must be banned? “Assess,” “Analyze,” “Evaluate,” and “Critique.”

Obama backs marriage act repeal

waluum — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 03:58:19 +0000

The Obama administration continued its half-a-loaf approach to gay rights issues Monday by filing documents claiming that federal laws banning same-sex marriage are discriminatory, even as the federal government continues to defend them. In its nine-page brief, the Justice Department stated that the Obama administration opposes the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act as discriminatory and supports its repeal. Yet the motion also calls for the dismissal of a lawsuit filed by a gay California couple seeking to overturn the federal marriage law.

A public college that banned a church from meeting on its property has scrapped its policy of discrimination and is now allowing equal access to campus facilities.

Fashionable vs. modest apparel becomes an issue in Colorado

In fashion, less might be more and skin might be in, but offices, churches, schools and many shoppers often find what’s in vogue is outside their comfort zone. Despite summer heat and the revealing clothing sold in most stores, office bosses, school principals and Denver’s Catholic archbishop are reminding women to keep their bodies covered.

Lutherans to Vote on Sexually Active Gay Clergy

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, one of the largest Christian denominations in the country, will decide this week whether to allow gay people in relationships to serve as clergy. Currently, sexually active gay people are not permitted to serve in the clergy, but celibate gay people are. By Friday, church delegates meeting in Minneapolis are expected to vote on a proposal that would permit congregations to let gay men and lesbians in committed, monogamous relationships serve as clergy.

Liberal religious groups announced on Monday they are teaming up with President Barack Obama in a national campaign to counter the surprisingly vehement conservative opposition to his plan for overhaul of the U.S. healthcare industry this year. Organized by liberal-leaning evangelicals, some mainline Protestant clergy, and some Catholic groups, it will include Obama participating in a call-in program with religious leaders streamed on the Internet on August 19, prayer meetings and nationwide television ads.

Some of these instances can be easily be taken out of context and therefore misinterpreted, straying from their intended meaning. However, some are clearly questionable. Take these with a grain of salt and view them with prayerful discretion.

UFOs and the Christian Worldview

waluum — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 04:44:00 +0000

Most Christians don’t think about UFOs. Except for catching the occasional episode of X-Files or maybe watching the latest Independence Day wannabe, the topic of extraterrestrial life simply never comes up. If a Christian ever does think about alien intelligence, he usually believes it’s all a bunch of hooey, nothing more than a product of the lunatic fringe. “Addicts take their drugs and, poof, they see flying saucers – right next to flying skillets, flying Volkswagens, and flying walruses.” This is what I thought, too, before I started this study.
