Does This Appeal to You?

I break from Holy Wars (although this has a profound relationship to that series)

A few blogs back I wrote about Christianity’s biggest enemy, itself. Now I come back to that point with what I think is a disgusting story. Newt Gingrich publicly admitted he was having an affair during his drive to impeach President Clinton for doing the same thing. Now I know hypocrisy is something every human being struggles with. Humans have developed many evil tendencies, hypocrisy being one of them. This I feel goes further than that. Rev. Jerry Falwell openly praises Newt for coming out about his affair and invites him to give a commencement address at his own Liberty University. Now, I can respect a man who comes out and admits his faults and asks for forgiveness. But come on folks, Newt divorced his wife at that time and married the woman who he was having an affair with, and is still married to her. Where did Newt come out and admit his affair? Focus on the Family, where else? How fitting, what is Dobson telling our families? To divorce your wife and marry the woman you cheated on her with and to be proud of that fact?

Here is another point, why would Newt Gingrich, a long time politician, want to tell us about his affair? We already had a good inkling that it happened, could he possibly be prepping American minds for his campaign to become president? Of course people, this is how it is done in this day and age. We where once ruled by kings and queens. We where told how to live life. That is until the kings and queens discovered that it is easier to give us a choice, and to control what that choice is. We are bogged down by this constant media push in one direction or another, left, right, over and over. So Gingrich is testing the waters to see how America will react to his hypocrisy. Well I have the unfortunate feeling that hardline conservatives will praise him all of the way to the polls. NOW HERE THIS: 2 leading republican candidates have been divorced and remarried, one of them several times (Giuliani) and the other married the woman he had an affair with (Gingrich). I am all about forgiveness, believe me, but when someone continuously practices the same actions over and over, you wonder how much remorse can be in their heart.

My friends, if this is all we have to offer for leadership in this country, I urge you to either find a candidate that has true attributes, or don’t vote at all. The Clinton Monarchy on one side, Newt or Rudy on the otherside…. We knew this was coming; we need to prepare for the future! Lets all pray for the people who need the prayer the most. Let’s take action against evil, let’s shelter the homeless, and let’s feed the hungry. Lets do it all without the government forcing us to. Let’s take the control out of their hands and put it where it belongs, in Gods hands!
