I am trying to give the man a chance and be fair. Thus, not posting about him here for so long. He already did two scary things today. (http://tinyurl.com/ctdugk) He announced plans to shut GTMO in a year, and he overturned some of Mr. Bush's bans on Tax dollars for abortions and abortion counseling. Wow, what a way to start. It will just get more bizarre and radical from here.
Getting back to the Obama worship theme, here is a list I saw someone post on a message board today that is rather disturbing.
1. "... a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come
down upon you, you will experience an epiphany ... and you will suddenly realize
that you must go to the polls and vote for Obama" - Barack Obama Lebanon, New
Hampshire. January 7, 2008. http://www.villagevoice.com/2008-01-15/news/is-obama-s-constitution-strong-enough/
2. "Lord, we have again come to you in prayer, and you have heard our cries from
heaven, and you have sent us again from the state called Illinois, a man called
Barack to heal our land," said [Larry] Younginer, a 62-year-old retired
information systems worker at Coca Cola in Atlanta. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/chi-obama-godsend_glantonnov29,0,7660180.story
3. "Many even see in Obama a messiah-like figure, a great soul, and some
affectionately call him Mahatma Obama." - Dinesh Sharma http://www.opednews.com/articles/Obama-s-Satyagraha--Or--Di-by-Dinesh-Sharma-080626-187.html
4. "Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you,
but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned
being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or
health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of
being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre
earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are
philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to
reason or emotion, but to the soul." - Mark Mortford, San Francisco Chronicle. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2008/06/06/notes060608.DTL
5. "Obama be thy name....thy will be done." - Recording Artist Makadem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PDehlPWsdQ&eurl=http://obamamessiah.blogspot.com/
6. "This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet
began to heal." - Barack Obama. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/06/03/obamas-nomination-victory_n_105028.html
7. "Barack’s appeal is actually messianic, it’s something about his aura, his
spirit, his soul, that exudes enlightenment in the making. Oh, he’s not fully
enlightened, being that enlightenment is a process, not an event. But for
reasons I can’t fully articulate, he is one of those individuals who
communicates God-like energy (metaphorically speaking), in whom you can “feel”
God. Now, I’m using the term “God” to mean the loving, honest, just, and
inspiring part of the force behind it all. You may not believe something’s
behind it all, but I do. And I look for God constantly — that which exudes love,
integrity, humility, depth, kindness, generosity — and more ... supposedly. So,
Geraldine, I’m taking a special look at Barack Obama because he’s a lot closer
to a Jesus-type than the other candidates, by quite a bit. What if God decided
to incarnate as men preaching “hope and change.” And what if we didn’t recognize
them, because we are so dull, and let them slip away, not availing ourselves of
the opportunity to be led by God! Lord knows we’ve elected the anti-Christ often
enough. Excuse me, George." -Mark Davis, Charleston, IL. http://www.jg-tc.com/articles/2008/03/31/opinion/letters/doc47f0586a2ff1b441328510.txt
8. "I listened to that endorsement and Barack's speech afterwards and Obama, to
me, must be not just an ordinary human being but indeed an Advanced Soul" - Lynn
Sweet, Chicago Sun-Times. http://blogs.suntimes.com/sweet/2008/03/sweet_richardson_in_endorsing.html#comments
9. "He's our product out of the all-knowing quantum field of intelligence" - Eve
Konstantine, Washington Post http://www.huffingtonpost.com/eve-konstantine/the-obama-vibe_b_85143.html
10. "There’s something else going on. I think that Obama, his election to the
Senate, was divinely ordered. . . . I know that that was God’s plan." - Janny
Scott, NY Times http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/09/us/politics/09obama.html?_r=1&pagewanted=print
11. "It will change everything. ... You'll have to measure time by `Before
Obama' and `After Obama'....Everything's going to be affected by this seismic
change in the universe." -Spike Lee 12. "He won’t just heal our city-states and
souls. He won’t just bring the Heavenly Kingdom — dreamt of in both Platonism
and Christianity — to earth. He will heal the earth itself." - Mark Tillman,
Philosophy lecturer, Catholic University of America. http://www.freeliberal.com/archives/003418.html 13. "[Obama's
election} is so extraordinary that another chapter could be added to the Bible
to chronicle its significance.” - Jesse Jackson, Jr. http://dyn.politico.com/printstory.cfm?uuid=55D13D94-3048-5C12-00E851454E822F1E
14. " band plays “Obama-alujah” and thousands stand in the chill night ready to
be rapturous. . . ." - NY Times http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/24/us/politics/24obama.html?_r=2&oref=slogin&oref=slogin
15. "I am confident that we can create a Kingdom right here on Earth." -Barack
Obama. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/10/08/obama.faith/That is my Frustrated 2.345 cents. Even so Lord Jesus come quickly!
