The latest from Mara Vanderslice who was a
Kerry-Edwards religious consultant and is finding more ways to
undermine the Gospel.
A new political group that claims to be
a Christian organization has endorsed pro-abortion presidential
candidate Barack Obama. The Matthew 25 Network plans to run ads for
Obama on Christian radio stations and in newspapers and magazines that
appeal to Christians.
The object is to try to pry away evangelical voters from supporting
John McCain, who has already received the endorsement of a number of
evangelical and Catholic groups and leaders.
Mara Vanderslice, the head of the political action committee, told the
Wall St. Journal the group plans to spend $500,000 in advertising for
Obama between now and the November elections.
Matthew 25? Well Matthew 4:25
says “If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much
more will they malign those of his household. ” Or how about
Matthew 13:25 “but while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed
weeds among the wheat, and went away. ” Maybe Matthew 18:25 “and as he
could not pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, with his wife and
children and all that he had, and payment to be made.” – well that
matches Obama’s tax plan. Matthew 23:25 “Woe to you,
scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you cleanse the outside of the
cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of extortion and
rapacity.” – sounds like an Obama supporting PAC to me.
Though maybe they mean this bit in chapter 25 of Matthew,
“Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my
brethren, you did it to me.” – so aborting Jesus goes well with an
Obama supporting PAC.
By the way wasn’t one of the reasons Obama
said he didn’t take public money was because of PACs supporting McCain?

I was reading this posting while listening to today’s “Christ is the Answer” broadcast on Ave Maria Radio. The subject was abortion, with graphic detail concerning the abortive procedures. The final scripture verses were taken from Matthew 25.
Ironic indeed.
Re: Matthew 25. I’m pretty sure they confused the synoptic gospels with the band “Matchbox 20″…after all, it’s a pretty common mistake and it sounds almost as cool as “Matthew 25”
And “Christians for abortion” sounds like “Christians for the Colosseum”, hence the name change…that’s just smart politics.
Get with it sheeple!
Well, the whole No-PAC Obama thing was a lie from the beginning. Planned Parenthood Action Fund is an ardent supporter.
How about “I was a fool and you instructed me. I was a sinner and you reproved me.” and various and sundry other things religious people are not supposed to do during an election.
