Zone1 Tulsi Gabbard on God

[FoghornLeghorn]

Please read her post on X and tell me if you disagree and why.


God is love. Therefore, during times of hardship, sadness, pain and suffering, we naturally and spontaneously take refuge in Him — in love itself — because we know in the core of our hearts that it is only the power and light of God’s love that can drive away the darkness of evil and hatred, which was manifested so tragically and violently upon the children praying in Minneapolis on Wednesday.

So why is it that people like Jen Psaki and others have such a spontaneous visceral negative reaction to those who are praying to God for refuge, strength, and for the wellbeing of the victims of this heinous attack? Because they do not believe in God or His love. Their response is rooted in their hatred of God. They want to be God, so they view Him as their competitor. They are agents of darkness and hatred, and the light of God’s love is a threat to their dark ambitions.

One manifestation of their darkness and desire to be God is their belief that any man can become a woman, and any woman can become a man. This is the insanity and darkness that has unfortunately perpetuated today’s Democrat Party, and is one of the reasons why I could no longer associate myself with them.

It is especially during times like this, when the darkness of hate descends upon us, that we take shelter in and manifest the light of God, which is love.

Rev Martin Luther King spoke the truth beautifully when he said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.

Problem I have with it? Using God to promote your politics. From what I've read Psaki didnt condemn people who prayed. She simply said it wasn't enough. Is it? Was she wrong?

Because the record of achievement for Cult Christians has been zero .
Over 2000 years of made up nonsense and the world is probably an infinitely worse place and likely to get even more horrible .

Yet simpering sentimentalists like you trot out exactly the same sick stories as though the past record does not exist .

You should learn from experience , not drown yourself in the same repeated mistakes , time after time , after time , after --------

It's like having very simple , deaf neighbours .

By any objective measure, Christianity has been a force for good.

If it's that simple , try just one objective measure .

Or, is it just the blind vision of various Culists like yourself ?

Am llstening to the silence .

Seems there are no objective measures .
Or , any other sort .
Just the Sound of Silence--- might make a good title for my next book / LP.

Ms. Gabbard isn't a Christian, she is a devout Hindu, who has a different view of Almighty God than we do.

She didn't "use God" to promote her politics. As for Psaki, she is clearly no believer in God and her tone-deaf remark on praying demonstrated such. Was Psaki wrong? Yes, she's wrong with regard for her desire to eliminate the 2nd amendment while pushing the insanity that people can change their biological sex.

Where did she say that? She said she could no longer associate with the Democratic Party. She didn't say anything about not "loving" them.

I believe in God but is it enough?

For salvation? We're supposed to do the will of God. Doing so confirms belief. Failing to obey demonstrates a lack of belief and commitment. Here are a few verses; there are more.

Matthew 19:17: "And he said to him, 'Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments'".

Matthew 5 Jesus states that "whoever sets aside any command that seems unimportant and teaches others to do the same will be unimportant in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever does and teaches what the commands say will be called great in the kingdom of heaven".

John 14:15: "If you love me, you will keep my commandments".

My post was responding to luiza ‘s post on Christianity.

As for Hindu’s, I much prefer them over militant atheists.

You know that isnt the question.
