[on the election results]

The event we have just witnessed was far more than a general election – it was a referendum on the soul of America. We grieve today like we have lost a friend or a close relative. Millions of Americans looked evil in the eye and adopted it. Some Christian observers called the Democratic Party platform for 2012 a 'Romans 1 Platform,' and they were right. Abortion, same-sex marriage, and immorality carried the day. The great values on which America was founded were set aside because of selfishness unbalanced by biblical truth and commitment to Jesus Christ. Race and ethnicity overrode values. The America we love is sick and needs renewal and healing. The world hated Jesus, and it is no surprise the world hates the followers of Christ.

Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience. Romans 13: 1-5

Millions of Americans looked evil in the eye and adopted it.

Yet you preach the other guy is going to Hell because of his Mormonism. What were we supposed to do?

Abortion, same-sex marriage, and immorality carried the day.

Abortion has been legal since the 70's.

The great values on which America was founded

America was founded by Deists, Atheists, Freemasons, and SOME Christians.

biblical truth and commitment to Jesus Christ

First Amendment no-establishment clause. Read it. You don't disagree with the Constitution do you? That would be so un-american!

it is no surprise the world hates the followers of Christ

Voting for a different guy than you =/= "they hate the followers of Christ"

It's strange; if their guy had won, it would have been the Will of God. Now, it's Satan working in disguise somehow.

Abortions existed before this election, and during Bush's LONG term in office. Same-sex marriage is what progressive countries all over the world are adopting.

Like I've said before: the whole world breathed a collective sigh of relief when we heard that Obama had won. It's not figuratively; I have seen it in news reports from Europe, from the Middle East, from China, from Oceania, from South America, from Africa.

Jesus would have told you to follow the elected leader, as he's there by the Will of God, Matty.
He told you to sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor. Why do you hate Jesus, Matty?

"Some Christian observers called the Democratic Party platform for 2012 a 'Romans 1 Platform,' and they were right."

And now read futher. To Romans 13:1-5. Your 'God' has chosen who is to rule over you, therefore you must now worship Obama as if he 'twere Lord God Almighty; his every word Holy Writ, just as you lot didn't have any problem doing the same with your previous God Emperors Dumbya & Raygun.

You'd have considered anyone not exactly like you - Democrats, Liberals - unAmerican traitors for so much as thinking otherwise in the '80s & 00s, would you not? Glove's on the other foot now, bitches. You are the Godless, traitorous unAmerican subhumans if you don't start worshipping Obama (and all other Democrat presidents for the foreseeable future). Because as far as you lot are concerned, he is Lord God Almighty.

"The event we have just witnessed was far more than a general election it was a referendum on the soul of America. We grieve today like we have lost a friend or a close relative."

Damn, don't you just hate a God who would ordain so many Democrats, and a black president too. What's up with that?

"Millions of Americans looked evil in the eye and adopted it."

But, Mat, the hand of God MADE us look.

"Abortion, same-sex marriage, and immorality carried the day."

Damn those immoral, gay abortionists, but... I mean if that's what God wants.

"The world hated Jesus, and it is no surprise the world hates the followers of Christ."

Oh, come on, Mat, I don't hate Jesus. I might not believe he existed, I certainly don't believe he was a messiah, but I don't hate him. And, of his followers, I only hate the wing-nut, a**hat ones... like you.
