World Net Daily Nut Warns: Vote for Obama and go straight to Hell
According to Salon.com's War Room:

http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/feature/2008/10/30/obama_hell/index.html?source=rss&aim=/politics/war_room/feature

Still can't choose between John McCain and Barack Obama? Well, good news -- WorldNetDaily's Janet Porter has just made your decision much easier. Porter's latest column warns that a vote for Obama is irreconcilable with the Christian faith, and that those who do choose to vote Democratic this year have a terrible punishment awaiting them.

"To all those who name the name of Christ who plan to willfully disobey Him by voting for Obama, take warning. Not only is our nation in grave danger, according to the Word of God, so are you," Porter wrote.

What kind of danger are so many of us in? The really bad kind:

Be forewarned: If you willfully disobey God on life and marriage because of race or false hope for the economy, you will usher in the kind of change that brought the Soviet Union to collapse. But the warning goes far beyond that. To those who think that God's grace gives them license to willfully disobey Him without consequences – think again:

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' (Matthew 7:21-23)

That deals with your eternity.


Porter, who organized the Values Voter Debate that took place earlier this cycle, used to be a big Mike Huckabee booster. She served as co-chairwoman of his Faith and Values Coalition and made essentially the same warning about votes against Huckabee that she's now making about votes against McCain. But when we're talking about heaven and hell, what choice do we have but to go for the lesser of two evils?

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that "voting for anyone else means an eternity in the fires of hell" is probably not the best message for a battered GOP.

3. So voting for a cheater who hates the poor is in keeping with the
Christian faith?

I'm guessing she needs to re-read this passage:

"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure of heart,
for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

11. God has a special place for...
I believe God has a "special place" in mind for those who are the nutcases and bigots...

As Shakespere said... "they doth protest too much"

Justice, Integrity & Mercy carries far more weight with the God/Goddess ...than being bigoted idiots....
