Oops, Are You Offended?

If you’re an easily offended person, you might want to stop reading now, because this may offend you. And frankly, I don’t care. I have opinions, thoughts, and feelings about things, I like to express them, and if you don’t agree with me, that’s fine, we can agree to disagree. If, however, you’re offended, that’s your problem, not mine, and I’ll still sleep well tonight. I’ve never lived my life according to what other people thought of me, and I don’t intend to now. Your opinion of me is none of my business. By the way, this prologue probably doesn’t apply to my friends, because you’re just as outspoken as I am, and rightly so. Let’s get to it, shall we?

Racism. What a dirty word, made even dirtier when it doesn’t apply. There is a concerted effort in our society today to call anyone a racist who doesn’t agree with the policies of Barack Obama. Gee, am I a sexist if I don’t agree with my sister? Of course not. I don’t dislike Obama because of the color of his skin… it’s the content of his character that leaves much to be desired. He voted FOUR times as a Senator to allow babies that were aborted alive to die. That’s right. Babies that were supposed to be aborted lived through the abortion process, and instead of allowing the doctors to save their lives, Obama voted to just let those babies lie there and die. That’s not a race issue. That’s a character issue. If Ronald Reagan had done this, I’d be spouting off about him. And I’m sure that goes for most of us who want Obama out of office. We don’t want him out of office because he’s black. We want him out of office because his policies have destroyed America. What else has he done? Well, he believes in wealth redistribution. That’s a fancy way of saying communism. He’s a big government kind of guy, who thinks rich people should pay their fair share while government lives beyond its means. Oh, and let’s not forget all the freebies he promised to folks so they’d vote for him. Yes, he is the food stamp “president.” Oops, is that a racist statement? Get real. It’s a verified fact that more people are on food stamps now than ever before. If Obama were white that wouldn’t decrease the amount of people on food stamps. Facts are facts, and y’all race baiters need to recognize. The race card is old, it’s not working, we’re not buying it, and we don’t care if you call us racist. Sticks and stones, baby. We know who we are, and we hope that you’ll find better things to do with your time than support a communist in the White House who thrives on keeping you dependent on handouts so he can regulate every aspect of your lives.

The war on women. Well, what about all the aborted babies who would have been awesome women if their mothers hadn’t gone to a baby-killer to end their lives before they even had a chance? Oops, did that offend you? Well, have you ever heard of abstinence? Or waiting until you get married before you have sex? Is that too traditional for you? Okay, practice birth control, buy condoms, but pay for it yourself. It’s ludicrous that some of you expect taxpayers to foot the bill for killing your unwanted children or buying your condoms. You don’t want government in your bedrooms while you have sex, why do some of  you want big brother to pay for your condoms or abortion pills? Sex is a choice, and if you choose to have it, fine. At least be smart about it. Playing word games and calling yourselves pro-choice doesn’t change the fact that millions of aborted babies are crying out in the arms of God because they were an inconvenience. Did your unborn child have a choice? If, at the time of conception, that child isn’t alive, why does it have to be killed in order to abort it? My sincere prayer is this: if you’re a woman who is pregnant or will become pregnant in the future, please let that baby live. If you are unable to provide a good home for your baby, there are so many people who would, and could, give that baby a wonderful home. Nine months out of your life is nothing compared to what you will gain by a lifetime knowing that you saved a life.

RINOs. Republicans in name only, and politicians in general, but let’s start with the RINOs, like John Boehner, John McCain, Chris Christie, and Marco Rubio. You claim to be Republicans but support Democratic policies, and you’re not fooling us. Boehner, you need to grow a set and stand up to Obama, but you seem unable to. Why? What’s he holding over your head? As for McCain, you’re supporting another version of the Dream Act, and you helped Obama get into office in the first place. Rubio also supports amnesty, as do many other RINOs. I’m sorry, but when did it become legal to break our laws? You want to appease Hispanic voters? Is that why you’re pandering to illegal aliens? Gee, maybe if there weren’t so many illegal aliens here there wouldn’t have been such a high margin of Hispanics who aren’t happy with the Republican party. Oops, is it offensive to say illegal aliens these days? Too bad. That’s what they are. Who started calling illegal aliens undocumented workers anyway? Is that supposed to make them feel better? I’ll tell you what would make me feel better. Having legal immigrants here who haven’t broken our laws. Wow, what a concept! Why are you rewarding illegal aliens when their actions make it harder for legal immigrants to move here? You might as well hold up a sign and say, “Open borders now! Come across, break our laws, who needs secure borders? As for you Hezbollah guys, we’ll try to pretend you’re not crossing! We need your votes too!” And Chris Christie is another story. Fawning over Obama after Hurricane Sandy sure didn’t hurt Obama’s campaign, did it? Pretending like Obama was going to rush in and save the day. I see New Jersey residents still suffering, FEMA was nowhere to be found, but I bet Christie benefited somehow. Does he also benefit from supporting Islamists and appointing Muslim judges? You betcha. Last, but not least, Marco Rubio. He is NOT  a natural born citizen, and I’m so tired of seeing him touted by Conservatives as the next President. Didn’t we learn from Obama? Unless there’s an amendment to the Constitution taking away the requirement for POTUS to be a natural born citizen, Rubio cannot run for President. No matter how much you like him. And I’m not real keen on amending our Constitution for this purpose. Our founding fathers knew what they were doing when they considered that a future President or Vice-President shouldn’t have divided loyalties, and if the parents of same were not U.S. citizens at the time of their birth, their loyalty may be to the country of their parents.

Islam. Some of the most offended people on this planet are followers of Islam, and I’ve had it with hearing about how offended they are. Behead those who insult Muhammad? Who’s Muhammad anyway? He was a man who wanted power and when he couldn’t get it through peaceful means, he became violent. He murdered and raped and pillaged his way through many lands and many peoples, all in the name of Allah, and in his quest for power, he made it his life’s work to instill in his followers a deep hatred of Jews and Christians. Actually, anyone who doesn’t submit to Islam is considered a kafir and inferior to Muslims. Excuse me? You’re superior to me because you’re a Muslim? I don’t think so. I don’t consider myself superior to you. We’re all equal in the eyes of God. And Muhammad is your perfect role model? Anyone who engages in sex with a nine year old baby girl is a rapist and a pedophile, and if you think it’s okay for a 54 year old man to have sex with a nine year old girl, something is wrong with you and you need serious help. How many so-called Muslims are true Muslims? People talk about moderate Muslims, especially here in America. There are either practicing Muslims or non-practicing Muslims, and if you’re a non-practicing Muslim, your brothers and sisters don’t consider you a true Muslim. If you’re a Muslim but don’t want Sharia law, you’re not considered a true Muslim, but you don’t want to admit it because you’ll be considered an apostate, and you’ll have a death sentence on your head. So you’d rather call yourself a Muslim so you’ll stay alive, and you’ll go along with whatever the Islamists are doing, because you’re scared to do otherwise, and you’ll watch silently as Sharia law creeps into America. Then you’ll wonder what happened. How did those Americans let this happen? Why didn’t Christians and Jews speak up? Well, why didn’t you? How many Muslims have never read the Quran? Too many to count. Why don’t some countries want their people to be educated? Gee, do you think it might be because if they found out what the Quran really teaches, they might not like it? Not to mention the Hadith and the Sira, which are the teachings of Muhammad and the stories about his life. And he’s considered a greater prophet than Jesus? Nope, he’s one of the false prophets God warned us about. Oops, are you offended? Darn. Well, if the truth offends you, perhaps you should take an honest look at that. Does it offend you that I’m saying it? Or does it offend you that it’s true? If it’s not true, please enlighten me, I’m willing to learn. I’d love to have an open debate about Islam, about race, about anything you’d like. And if you’re calling me names by now, guess what? I’m not offended at all. God bless you, God bless your families and friends, and God bless us all. I love each and every one of you, and I hope and pray that I’ll see you in Heaven one day. The truth shall set us free, and if we’re too afraid to speak it, we’ve become as politically correct as the establishment.

How about the homosexual community? Well, if you want to be homosexual, that’s your choice, of course. Just please don’t shove it down my throat and try to make me accept it, and call me a homophobe if I don’t. Why are some people so intent on making others accept their lifestyles? There are no laws stopping you from being gay. Why try to make others accept it? We don’t hate you because you’re gay, far from it, but we get labeled haters, and intolerant. Well, when you throw your lifestyle in my face and try to make me accept it as normal, there’s a problem. I’ll live my life without making you accept my way of life, and you do the same. Live and let live. I’m tired of being called names because I don’t agree with what you do.

If we don’t stand up now, we’ll lose this nation. If we’re so worried about offending people that we stop speaking the truth, we’ll be overtaken by those who will silence us. And we’ll deserve it. If something is wrong, it’s wrong. We are living in the last days, where good is called evil and evil is called good, and God help us if we start doing the same. Some of what I’ve written is deliberately controversial, and there’s a reason. If you’re reading this and you’re emboldened to speak out, or change your circumstances, then this was written for you.
