Obama not a healer, trust Stephen Mosher, why Catholics voted for Obama, the real haters, what can be done?
Dear Readers,
See the additional emails from readers that have come in since last night. If you are new to LifeSiteNews some of these should help you to better understand the value of this international daily news service (it is not a newsletter) to so many of our readers.
As for today's news, it is mostly another day of difficult realities that we must become informed about and face. Much of what you read here you will not see in the mainstream media or reported as honestly as we do.
The quick appointment of Obama's chief of staff Rahm Emanuel is a strong confirmation that Obama will not be a healer bringing the nation together - as many have been led to believe.
We wish very much that we could be positive, welcoming and trusting about the new administration, as many are, but quite frankly it is more likely that weakness or naivety will be rewarded with ruthlessness in the years ahead. All the evidence seen to date tells us that. Barack has made his real intentions very clear to those willing to do a little reading and research beyond the mainstream media.
Stephen Mosher of the Population Research Institute tells us in his article today what we should expect on abortion from an Obama administration. Mosher has been very effective in exposing the extreme abortion agenda of Communist China and getting the US to withhold hundreds of millions of dollars in aid from China because of this. We should trust his judgement.
A majority of Catholics voted for Barack Obama despite the overwhelming evidence of his extreme position against fundamental Catholic/Christian moral and life principles. It is not too difficult to determine why this happened.
The report today on the negative spiritual and moral environment in most US Catholic colleges is one of many other examples of the huge abandonment of first duties by most of the nation's Catholic leaders for the past 40 years. Hence, we get a majority of Catholics voting for culture of death politicians and falling prey to media manipulation and seductively created image.
The homosexual activist reaction to the voter approval of Proposition 8 is instructive. These folks have absolutely no respect for democracy, freedom of expression or freedom of religion. They very frequently accuse those who disagree with them of "hate" but today's report gives plenty of evidence of who the real haters are. Pro-family people do not hate and must never hate homosexual inclined persons. The hate charge is only a tactic and a very effective but totally dishonest one.
What can be done about all this? Well, a lot actually. You see, the big problem is that good people have not done what they should have, especially since the 1960s. All kinds of destructive trends have grown because of very weak opposition and the abandonment of traditional religious belief and practice. So, the solution is an awakening of the good - and most people are indeed good. Once this really begins to happen, through a renewal of religious faith, nothing can stop a renewal of a culture of life.
