Destroying Tomorrow - US Debt Will Crush Future Americans

We don't know when...but at some point (we hope it happens after the rapture) America is going to come to the end of its borrowing spree and no one in the world will want to buy our debt.  At that point US bonds will become JUNK BONDS like Greece or Portugal....our interest rates will sky rocket and we will be insolvent.

That's when things will really get interesting!!

If you really wanted to live like a millionaire, you could start doing it right now.  All you have to do is to apply for as many credit cards as possible and then begin running up credit card balances like there is no tomorrow.  

At this point, I know what most of you are probably thinking.  You are probably thinking that such a lifestyle would not last for long and that a day of reckoning would eventually come, and you would be exactly right.  

In fact, anyone that has ever had a tremendous amount of credit card debt knows how painful that day of reckoning can be.  To mindlessly run up credit card debt is exceedingly reckless, but unfortunately that is precisely what we have been doing as a nation as a whole.  We are a "buy now, pay later" society, and our national day of reckoning is approaching very, very quickly.

Often we like to focus on our exploding national debt, but household debt is out of control too.  In fact, the total amount of household debt in the United States is now up to a whopping 12.3 trillion dolllars...

In the second quarter, total household debt increased by $35 billion to $12.3 trillion, according to the New York Fed's latest quarterly report on household debt. That increase was driven by two categories: auto loans and credit cards.

We throw around words like "trillion" so often these days that they often start to lose their meaning.  But the truth is that 12.3 trillion dollars is an astounding amount of money.  It breaks down to about $38,557 for every man, woman and child in the entire country.  

So if you have a family of four, your share comes to a grand total of $154,231, and that doesn't even include corporate debt, local government debt, state government debt or the gigantic debt of the federal government.  That number is only for household debt, and there aren't too many Americans that could cough up their share right at this moment.

Do you remember when I wrote about how credit card companies are specifically targeting less educated and less sophisticated consumers?  Well, that is where much of the credit card debt growth has come lately.  Just check out these numbers...

Now, credit cards are returning among individuals with low credit or subprime credit scores below 660. Among people with credit scores between 620 and 660, the share that had a credit card rose to 58.8% in 2015 from a low of 54.3% in 2013. 

Among those with scores below 620, the number of people with a credit card increased to 50% from a low of 45.6% two years ago. Both figures for 2015 are the highest since 2008.

In America today, we are enjoying a standard of living that we do not deserve.

We consume far more wealth than we produce.  The only way we are able to do that is by going into debt.

We have been taking more than 100 million dollars of future consumption and bringing it into the present every single hour of every single day during the Obama administration.  That is why I am constantly referring to our "debt-fueled standard of living".  

We do not deserve to live the way that we do, but since we are able to steal from our children and our grandchildren we are able to enjoy a standard of living that most people in the world can only dream about.

Of course we are literally destroying the future of America in the process, but very few people seem to care about that these days.

Unfortunately, we are a bunch of debt pigs, and we just can't help ourselves.  We have come to believe that it is "normal" to go into so much debt, and as a society we continue to race toward economic oblivion.

"But Dennis, I don't get it!  You have been warning us since before the collapse of 2008 that things are going to get bad here....and it's only gotten better and better!  New trucks are everywhere, people are building everywhere, food prices are down, stock market is up, gasoline prices are down, people have jobs....and yet you keep posting article that things are gonna get bad!  What's up with you anyway?"

The above article points out a very simple answer to that question.  The ONLY reason we have been able to live the affluent lives that we have lived since the collapse of 2008 is because we have been able to steal from our children in order to live like kings today.

One day that will all come to a very abrupt end....and then people will stand around and say, "Huh...how come the smartest bankers, investment people, Congress and businessmen in the country couldn't see that we can't borrow money forever to live lives we can't afford today?"

They said the same thing in 2008 as they looked at the housing-mortgage collapse.

People simply refuse to learn from previous mistakes.

One of the most dangerous sayings in all of history is; "This time, things will be different."

"Born This Way" is Shaky Science

We blogged on this earlier in the week, but another article came out today so we will bring it to your attention again.

If you blinked sometime around 2010, you probably didn't recognize the country when you opened your eyes. Once President Obama "evolved" on marriage, and the Supreme Court redefined that institution, the remaining cultural dominoes are falling, and fast.

This year alone, laws were proposed that would force Christian colleges to deny their beliefs, and a federal directive demanded that schools nationwide accommodate transgender students in both restrooms and athletics. And this march is accompanied by the persistent media drumbeat that "the science is settled" on these issues.

But the rhetoric is way ahead of the research. A sweeping new report in the The New Atlantis surveys decades of published data on sexual orientation, gender dysphoria, and the psychology behind them. 

The results are turning heads. Not only is the science behind LGBT claims far from settled, but these findings call into question foundational assumptions of the new sexual orthodoxy.

Dr. Paul McHugh and Lawrence Mayer, psychiatric experts, argue that "there is a large gap between the certainty with which beliefs about [sexual orientation and gender identity] are held...and what a sober assessment of the science reveals."

Their report identifies major areas where scientific findings don't support the triumphal rhetoric of activists. First, the idea that "gay" people are "born that way," genetically pre-programmed to be attracted to their own sex, lacks evidence.

"Genes," write the authors, "constitute only one of the many key influences on behavior in addition to environmental influences, personal choices, and interpersonal experiences." So-called "sexual orientation" is "fluid," not "fixed" and often changes throughout a person's life. 

In fact, some studies found that eighty percent of males who reported homosexual or bisexual feelings as children later identified exclusively as heterosexual.

Their report also tackles the transgender question, comparing actual research to the lofty claims of activists. Once again, there's a yawning chasm. Only a tiny minority of children who experience gender dysphoria continue to identify as transgender when they're adults.

McHugh and Mayer insist that subjecting children to hormone therapy or to so-called "sex reassignment" surgery is an act of sheer ideology, not medicine or compassion.

And, they add, adults who undergo sex-change operations (which the Obama Administration is pressuring health insurers to cover) are still--get this--19 times more likely to commit suicide than the rest of the population.

They conclude; "The hypothesis that...a person might be 'a man trapped in a woman's body,' or 'a woman trapped in a man's body,'--is not supported by scientific evidence."

Friends, we are all born with sin, dysfunction, brokenness, insecurity, pride, selfishness, lust, covetousness, perversion, etc...  It is the HUMAN CONDITION!

Let's say your two year old little boy steals something at the grocery store.  Of course we know the little kid was born that way because no one had taught him to steal at age two.  But do you correct the kid or just let his behavior go....because you know he was born that way?

"Oh, look!  Little Johnnie just stole some candy from the check out counter!  Isn't that something?  He was born as a thief!  Isn't that special??  Now don't you dare try to tell him his behavior is bad or will lead to problems!  Just embrace that he was born this way and try to nurture his thievery!"

No!!

We work our kids AWAY from the thievery, selfishness and perversion they were born with.  As parents we do our best to lead them to the paths of righteousness and teach them to fear the Lord.

Extreme Tribulation Continues in Venezuela

Things are getting quite hopeless and even terrifying in Venezuela.  Today we find that women are lining up to be sterilized at free clinics.

No doubt a society must be in it's final death spiral when women are so hopeless that they NEVER want kids.

CARACAS, Venezuela, August 26, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) — Scores of Venezuelan women are opting for sterilization as the socialist-run Latin American country teeters on the brink of economic and social collapse, a number of sources report.

“People are so hopeless they would rather render themselves incapable of having children than risk bringing the children into the world. That is a working definition of hell on earth,” pointed out TheRebel.media’s Ezra Levant in a report “Now popular in Venezuela? Sterilization day.”  

The Miranda clinic in Caracas is now sterilizing 40 women during its weekly “sterilization day” and has a waiting list of 500, Breitbart reported, describing the situation thus:

Government officials announced that the nation had run its supply of birth control out in July 2015. Venezuela has run out of most medicines — from common painkillers to cancer and HIV drugs — with doctors resorting to using veterinary medications to replace the human supplies where available. Most contraceptives are hard to come by and prohibitively expensive when available on the black market. The result of this lack of contraceptive supplies has been an astronomical increase in the number of teenage pregnancies nationwide.

By all accounts, Venezuela’s situation is deteriorating rapidly, with the country of 30 million wracked by rising violent crime, food shortages so acute that famine is imminent in some areas, rolling blackouts, and hyperinflation in the wake of the collapse of the global oil market.

“Venezuela has been the victim of ‘cultural imperialism,'” stated Steven Mosher, president of the Virginia-based Population Research Institute.

“UN agencies, along with USAID-funded groups, have pushed family planning on the country as the answer to all of its problems. Just as in the U.S., although to a much more serious degree, the country’s economic devastation has resulted in lower marriage rates and a larger number of single parent households.”

“I believe it to be both cynical and cruel for the socialist government, having ruined the economy with its destructive policies, to now turn on its own people in this way,” Mosher told LifeSiteNews in an email.

“What was once the most prosperous country in Latin America is now a basket case, and what is the government’s response: If only you, the people, would stop having children, our economic situation would improve.”  

“You can’t eliminate poverty by eliminating the poor, especially when the poverty is caused by government confiscation of wealth, expropriation of private enterprise, and corrupt and failing state-owned enterprises,” Mosher pointed out.

We already posted about the Venezuelans eating their cats, dogs and birds.  Today we find out that they are going to the zoos and eating zoo animals.  Probably for the best since those animals aren't getting fed.....so we would rather have them become food for starving people rather then starving them to death.

This is what happens when Socialism takes over a nation....and the poor-uneducated people elect politicians who PROMISE THEM material wealth by taking it from others.

This is exactly what the Democrats have been doing here in America for the past 40 years and why a Socialist named Bernie ran so far in the Democratic primary!

The president of Venezuela was so deluded by Socialist rhetoric that he actually ordered that ALL ELECTRONIC STORES cut their prices immediately by 50%....because he thought the prices had gone too high.  Of course all the electronics stores have now gone out of business because no one can afford to sell products at a loss.

People are now lined up for hours at grocery stores....and the Socialist president has ordered that people can't wait in line anymore because he believes the lines of people are driving the prices up.

Muslim Suicide Bomber in Turkey is 12 Yrs Old

We forgot to post on this last week when we first saw it...and now because of our 12 hour news cycle, everyone has already forgotten about it and moved onto the next catastrophe, earthquake, hurricane of Muslim killing...

BUT....

Last week in Turkey a Muslim suicide bomber attacked a Kurdish wedding party and killed dozens of people.

What makes the story even more tragic is that the suicide bomber was thought to be 12 years old.

Turkey's president says the suicide bomber in the wedding party attack that killed dozens was between 12 and 14 years old.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan gave the information in a live nationally-televised address in front of Istanbul city Hall.

At least 50 people were killed and dozens of others wounded in the attack late Saturday in the southeastern city of Gaziantep. Erdogan blamed the Islamic State group for the attack.

If any of you have gone to Memri.org and watched the brainwashing that Muslim governments start to do in public schools on very young children....this news comes as no surprise.

If you haven't ever seen these videos of Muslims teaching their kids to hate and kill infidels, Jews or anyone else who disagrees with them, you can start searching here;  http://www.memri.org/report/en/0/0/0/0/239/0/9374.htm

The Purpose of America Is to Protect Christianity

Was America founded as a place to incubate all religions and give all religions equal standing?

Nope.

A stroll around Washington, DC or other state capitals will give you an idea that our founders were God-fearing, Bible reading men who understood that Jesus was important.

There is a myth about the founding of America and a myth about the purpose of America when it first began as a nation.  This myth muddles all debate about immigration, and especially the current debate about allowing Syrian Muslims into America.  Debunking this myth is crucial to our victory against menacing and wicked enemies who seek our end. 

America, beginning with those colonies that would become America, was founded not to promote some general ideal of religious freedom, but rather to specifically protect serious Christians from the religious persecution they had suffered in Europe.  Several of the colonies – Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Maryland – were created to allow groups of persecuted Christians like Puritans, Quakers, and Catholics to have a specific home polity. 

Other colonies like Rhode Island and Connecticut were founded to allow Christians to practice faith as they chose outside Massachusetts.  Virtually all the colonies were populated by profoundly serious Christians.  It was not the free practice of "religion," but the free practice of Christianity that the early Americans fought and died for.  This mystified Europe (it mystifies Europe to this very day), because Europe at its most religious was never as religious as America. 

It is a stunning fact, almost always ignored by secular historians, that before the twentieth century began, writers were noting the profound irreligion or even atheism in much of Europe.  This was most pronounced in Germany, where books published during this period consistently note that even clergymen often did not own Bibles or believe in God.  This cavalier attitude toward Christianity permeated nearly every nation in Europe.

America was intended to be the Israel of Christianity, and commitment to that ideal explains the obstinacy of the rebelling colonists, who shed blood, lost treasure, and risked everything for freedom.  The purpose of America was never to protect its citizens from Christianity, but instead to protect Christians from the oppression of the state.

This is the reason why, until the middle of the twentieth century, no one in America even dreamed for many decades that the First Amendment could in any way have prevented the established state churches, which half of the new states had, all of which were gradually disestablished by the state government on their own. 

This aim included from the very beginning a subordinate purpose.  Americans intended their land to be not only a haven for Christians, but also a haven for Jews.  This new land was, from the earliest English settlements, welcoming to Jews.  Anti-Semitism in America, unlike everywhere on Earth, was condemned and repudiated.  Jews were elected to colonial and state political offices from the very beginning.

Christianity was the very soul of the anti-slavery movement (as it was in Britain).  The words in the Battle Hymn of the Republic, "…as He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free, our God is marching on," showed the clear Christian character of America.  The official hymn for our centennial, "God of Our Fathers," likewise shows a close intertwining of Christianity and American government.

Here;  http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/11/the_purpose_of_america.html

Amazing!  As godlessness grows in America so does the re-writing of our history by secular historians.

If you believe that America can remain great while at the same time jettisoning our Judeo-Christian morals and foundations....I have some flying pigs to sell you.

As we have said numerous times...if you aren't praying to Jesus for the future of America, NOW would be a great time to start.

U.S. Army Fears Major War in 5 Years But Lacks Money to Prepare For It

I get a kick out of the liberals who say, "Make peace!  Not War!" or "No more war!!"

When interviewed on TV they will say things like, "We just don't like war.  Why should our politicians send our young men off to die someplace?  What good does it do?"

By now I'm screaming at the TV saying, "It prevented you from speaking German right now and living under a totalitarian system!!"

Team Obama doesn't "like" war either.  He got elected saying he would bring all the "boots on the ground home."  Of course ISIS rose up and filled the vacuum he created by abruptly pulling out all US boots on the ground....and now Team Obama has had to send "boots on the ground" back to Iraq....but he calls them "Special Forces"....so as not to tarnish his image of not deploying any "boots on the ground" back to the Middle East.

So what happens if Russia invades Europe?  How about if China goes at it with Japan, Taiwan, South Korea or all of them and we have to defend our friends?  What if North Korea goes streaming in South Korea and runs over 30,000 U.S. troops stationed there in the process?  Should we send all our liberals to North Korea so they can march around Pyong Yang saying "No more war!"

Do you think liberals with signs actually does anything to stop an evil dictator?...or a nation hell-bent on taking more territory or controlling trade routes?  Did liberals with signs stop Hitler from marching into Poland?  Did liberals with signs punish Imperial Japan for bombing Pearl Harbor?

Nope!  Only big men with big guns, big ships, big tanks and big planes actually stop those kind of men. And this requires BIG MONEY to buy all those things and train all these soldiers.

Nothing focuses the mind like fear. What’s focusing the minds of U.S. Army leaders right now is the fear that they will be in a major war within five years. They know they’ll be fighting terrorists and insurgents for the foreseeable future, but what really preoccupies them is the likely return of large-scale conventional conflict — maybe with Russia in Eastern Europe, or Iran in the Middle East, or North Korea in Northeast Asia. Maybe in all three places.

Senior Army officials are circumspect about discussing the danger in open forums — they don’t want to advertise U.S. vulnerabilities — but it seems clear that the Obama administration’s “pivot to the Pacific” announced in 2012 has created a geopolitical vacuum stretching from the Baltic Sea to the Persian Gulf that Russia and Iran are trying to fill. Meanwhile, the unpredictable government of North Korea continues its bellicose behavior toward the South, which the U.S. is pledged to defend.

There isn’t much appetite for new wars in Washington, but U.S. leaders would have little choice if these countries sought to impose their will by force in neighboring nations. Whether aggression took the form of subversion or outright invasion, the U.S. would have to respond, because success for the attackers would drastically alter the global landscape to America’s detriment. It doesn’t take much imagination to see what it would mean if Russian forces were back in the heart of Europe, or Iran controlled most Middle East oil, or North Korea overran the South.

What worries Army planners is that their service isn’t adequately prepared for any of these scenarios — much less a situation in which more than one unfolded simultaneously. Not only have U.S. ground forces been drawn down in Europe and Asia as Washington sought to rely more on air power and sea power for regional security, but investment in new technology for land combat is at a low ebb. The Army’s entire budget for developing and producing new equipment, from tanks to missiles to helicopters to howitzers, amounts to barely two days of federal spending annually.

The level of spending is almost unbelievably low. The Army spends less on procuring wheeled and tracked vehicles in a year than General Motors GM -0.27% generates in sales each week. Its $3.6 billion budget request for helicopter procurement, about eight hours worth of federal spending at current rates, is focused mainly on upgrading Reagan-era rotorcraft because it can’t afford to buy new ones. Its ammunition budget ($1.5 billion) isn’t much more than what Americans spend on fireworks each year (around $1 billion).

The simple fact is that the Army has spent all its time since 9-11 fighting foes who look a lot different from the more capable enemies it might encounter in the near future. So it needs more money than it is currently getting from Congress to make some quick investments in technology areas where it is deficient. Moving money around within an already under-funded budget isn’t the answer. The Army needs additional funds to buy better equipment fast, not only to avoid defeat in a near-term war with Russia, Iran or North Korea, but also to deter aggression and thereby make war less likely.

You know, bankruptcy just isn't much fun!  USA has already spent $1 trillion more than it makes every single year since Obama was elected.  We need to have a well trained and prepared military because the wars are coming....but we simply don't have the money to spend.

When a family is broke, they need to make choices...."Should we buy food this week or clothes?  Should we fix the car or the water heater?  Should we have the kids play soccer or hockey?"

So what's it gonna be America?  Would you rather have an army that would protect the American way of life?....or would you rather have a 48,000,000 people on food stamps?

"We want both!"

Sorry.  You have to choose.

Monogamy is Boring and Will Soon be Dead

To follow up our previous post on polygamy....the same site had an article listing 10 Reasons Why Monogamy is Dead.

Top 10 Reasons Monogamy Is Dead

We all know the school song ‘first comes love, then comes marriage, then comes…’.  For generations young children chanted that song to tease their classmates knowing that love, marriage and birth were all part of the natural order of things.  A well-worn path that everyone would tread in their lifetime.

Is that still the case in the 20teens?  Arguably marriage and long term relationships are falling out of favor.  Humans are not, by their nature, monogamous and with divorce rates at an all-time high, the incentives to marriage simply no longer exist.

It seems strange that at a time when minority groups are fighting (and winning) the right to marry on equal terms with traditional couples, that marriage rates are lower today than they have been at any other time in the past.  Why is that?  Why do people no longer feel the need to enter into a long term committed and monogamous relationship?

Here are 10 key reasons why.

You can see them here;  http://www.listland.com/top-10-reasons-monogamy-is-dead/

Some of the reasons are that "bastards" are no longer shunned by society, easy access to porn for masturbation,  People want Freedom, People are living longer and it's not fair to be shackled to same person for so long, raising kids out of wedlock is encouraged, marriage and divorce are expensive, monogamy lacks excitement, living together is role-modeled in the media so most young people will live together and skip marriage.

Satan has done a tremendous job and tearing down the very Christian foundations that made America a great nation.  We were supposed to be a light to a lost and pagan world....and now we have become the chief pagan nation!  And this has all happened in a very short time!

At one time most Americans had a healthy FEAR OF THE LORD.  Today we find that most Americans want nothing to do with God, the Church, the Bible and certainly nothing to do with Jesus the Christ.

Top 10 Reasons Polygamy Should be Legal

Are you a man?  Have you ever had the desire to share your bed with more than just one woman?  Do you think it's unfair that the world quenches your desire by making up some stupid rule about only being married to one woman at a time?  Who made up that rule anyway?  Don't they know that men are capable of caring for and loving more than one woman?  Don't they know that we were born that way?  Don't they know that in nature the bull has a herd of up to 35 cows every breeding season? Don't they know that it's totally unnatural for men to be monogamous for our entire lives?

Well....be patient men.  Polygamy is coming!  If gay men can say they are born that way and get all sorts of sympathy and special privileges....then hetero men should demand the same treatment!!

Top 10 Reasons The US Should Legalize Polygamy

What exactly is Polygamy?  Most of us think that it is the practice of a man marrying more than one wife and it is true, that is a specific form of polygamy known as polygyny.  Another form of polygamy is known as polyandry and is the practice of one woman having more than one husband.  While polygyny is the more common form of polygamy, polyandry has been known to be practiced in some cultures.

Polygamy has always been considered illegal in the USA; indeed declaring the practice illegal was one of the requirements Utah had to fulfil in order to become a state of the USA.  Prior to that time polygamy had been considered legal in the territory and continued to be practiced long after the ban by a break-away sect of the Church of Latter Day Saints.  That ban has recently been challenged with a plural family bringing a case to Federal Court which resulted in a decision which ruled language banning ‘cohabitation’ was unconstitutional although the ruling did not prevent the state from refusing to issue multiple marriage licenses.  As such polygamy is considered a crime and perpetrators can be prosecuted for bigamy.

With the recent changes legalizing gay marriage many people feel it is time to reconsider the legal position of what might be considered by some to be an unconventional relationship and afford those who engage in them the same protections under the law as those in a traditional marriage.

Here are our top 10 reasons for legalizing polygamy.

Go to article to read the top 10 reasons;  http://www.listland.com/top-10-reasons-the-us-should-legalize-polygamy/

Friends, it was GOD who ordained the plan for one man and one woman to stay together til death do them part.  It was GOD who designed that relationship so that we could model the union between Jesus Christ (the Groom) and His Bride (the Church).

But as American rejects the Bible and the God of the Bible, which is Jesus Christ.....we will start to automatically reject all the rules that God laid out for us.

Soon we will become just like the ancient Israelites who were destroyed for their unwillingness to listen to God....."In those days Israel HAD NO KING.  Every man did as he saw fit."

Muslim Flight Attendant Sues Because She Was Forced to Serve Alcohol to Passengers

A Muslim flight attendant has sued the airline she worked for after she was fired for refusing to serve alcohol.  Of course CAIR and others are outraged!

What's new?...another day, another outraged group of Muslims!

A Muslim flight attendant says she was suspended by ExpressJet for refusing to serve alcohol in accordance with her Islamic faith.

In a bid to get her job back, Charee Stanley filed a discrimination complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Tuesday for the revocation of a reasonable religious accommodation.

She wants to do her job without serving alcohol in accordance with her Islamic faith -- just as she was doing before her suspension, her lawyer said.

"What this case comes down to is no one should have to choose between their career and religion and it's incumbent upon employers to provide a safe environment where employees can feel they can practice their religion freely," said Lena Masri, an attorney with Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Stanley, 40, started working for ExpressJet nearly three years ago. About two years ago she converted to Islam. This year she learned her faith prohibits her from not only consuming alcohol but serving it, too, Masri said.

She approached her supervisor on June 1 and was told to work out an arrangement for someone to fulfill passenger requests for alcohol.

"It was at the direction of the airlines that she began coordinating with the other flight attendant on duty so that when a passenger requested alcohol, the other flight attendant would accommodate that request," Masri said. "We know that this arrangement has worked beautifully and without incident and that it hasn't caused any undue burden on the airline. After all, it was the suggestion of the airline."

It seemed to be working out until another flight attendant filed a complaint against Stanley on August 2 claiming she was not fulfilling her duties by refusing to serve alcohol, Masri said. The employee complaint also said Stanley had a book with "foreign writings" and wore a headdress.

On August 25, the airline sent a letter to Stanley informing her that it was revoking its religious accommodation to exclude her from service of alcohol and placing her on administrative leave.

"They placed her on unpaid leave and they advised her that her employment may be terminated after 12 months," Masri said. "We are requesting that her employment be reinstated and the accommodation of her religious beliefs be reinstated as well."

A spokesman for ExpressJet declined to discuss Stanley's complaint.

"At ExpressJet, we embrace and respect the values of all of our team members. We are an equal opportunity employer with a long history of diversity in our workforce. As Ms. Stanley is an employee, we are not able to comment on her personnel matters," spokesman Jarek Beem said in an email.

What's next?  A stripper at a Strip Joint is going to convert to Islam and claim she has to wear a burqa during her strip show?  A waitress at Famous Dave's converts to Islam and refuses to serve pork?  A Muslim cashier at Target refuses to check out any customers who have pork products because she won't handle them?  A Muslim cab driver who refuses to pick up passengers who have been drinking at the bar because he can't "carry alcohol" in his cab?  A Muslim cab driver who refuses to pick up Jews from the synagogue?

Of course we all know that COMMON SENSE HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!.....and I seriously doubt that it's coming back.

We can only hope that the cases get heard by a judge with an ounce of common sense left....and immediately throws these ridiculous cases out.

King of Morocco Says No Virgins Await Jihadists

The world needs more Muslim leaders to say what the King of Morocco just said!

Muslim jihadists who kill in the name of Allah are heretics who are destined to dwell in hell for eternity, said the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI, on August 20.

In a televised speech translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), the Muslim king slammed Muslim terrorists, saying they are “led by ignorance” and in violation of the laws of jihad and shari’a.

“The terrorists who operate in the name of Islam are not Muslims. They have nothing to do with Islam, and jump on the bandwagon in order to justify their crimes and stupid acts. They are people who have been led astray, and they are destined to dwell in hell for all eternity,” he charged.

The monarch, who has ruled the Muslim country of Morocco for 17 years, continued on to say that terrorists fundamentally misunderstand the concept of jihad. “When was jihad ever about the killing of innocent people?” he asked.

“Allah said: ‘…do not transgress. Allah does not love the transgressors.’ Is it conceivable that Allah, the Forgiver, the Compassionate, would order a person to blow himself up or to kill innocent people?”

He added that suicide is prohibited in Islam, regardless of the reasons, and again quoted the commandments of Allah (Arabic for the name of God): “Allah said: ‘…Whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption upon the land – it is as if he had killed all of mankind.’”

The idea is very similar to the Jewish precept which teaches that if a man saves a life, it as if he has saved the whole world.

Calling Islam “a religion of peace,” King Mohammed blasted extremists’ deliberate misinterpretation of jihad. “Jihad in Islam is subject to specific conditions, including the condition that it must not be waged unless for the purpose of defense, and may never be waged for the purpose of killing or aggression,” he expounded.

Any Muslim who calls for such killing and aggression, accuses people of heresy unjustly, or interprets the Quran and other holy writings as a means to justify their own ends are “attributing lies to Allah and his messenger,” he declared, calling this “the true heresy.”

Some years ago, author Joel Rosenberg, named some leaders in Morocco as Muslim "reformers". This appears to continue to be the case as we read what the King says.

Of course, followers of Christ know that Islam is NOT a religion of peace because they openly reject Jesus Christ as savior....and that is a tenet of their faith.  So they will NEVER have ANY peace with God.  His wrath will still be upon them...BUT....this is good news for planet earth if we could at least get millions of Muslims to change their minds on killing innocent people in service to their demon-god they call Allah.
