Conservative blog brawl: Little Green Footballs versus Brussels Journal

This spat between Little Green Footballs and Brussels Journal is interesting. They original disagreement was whether some anti-immigration guy named Pim Fortuyn was a fascist. The comments section evolved into a discussion on the nature of European ethnic-racial-immigration politics. Essentially, whether it's a good thing for countries with homogeneous population to make an effort to remain so (they focus on Europe, but it could apply to Japan or anyplace else). You can begin going through their arguments by clicking on the link above, but you came here for me, right?

The Asymmetric view:

Follow up:

My Catholic moral system urges Christians to not consider race in assessing one's worth so, for me, it's pretty much settled- character and fidelity to God first. Communists also tend to be less racist because they fight about class. Finally, I'm an American and racial diversity isn't a problem for us because our distinct culture arose precisely because of racial and cultural mixing- albeit with an English base.

Here's the complication: Most geographic groups (races) share a history, customs forged from that history, and, therefore, a culture, which some people consider important even if only on a superficial level: I'm sure indigenous Scots give each other high fives when they view Braveheart, the Irish cry together when they hear Danny Boy, and the Japanese laugh en masse when they beat the heck out of each other on their game shows.

Nobody can deny that homogeneous nations need to give up some aspects of their culture when they transition to a multicultural one (although some might say the gains outweigh the losses) if only for fear of alienating or offending the new arrivals. When the new group comes with basic world-view differences, the issue can be more problematic: I've mentioned before that Santa Claus can't visit Austrian children anymore because Austrian officials fear offending Muslims. British Muslims complained about St. George's white cross on the British flag because St. George earned his fame fighting Saracens in the Crusades.

It's not the way I'd run my country, but if ethnic or cultural sameness is important to a group, should they feel bad (unless they act like Nazis in which case it should be everybody's business) because they're not contributing to global diversity? It's not as if people have a right to live in any foreign country they wish.

It really is not about racial immigration and diversity as the core issue in Europe but the problem with religious diversity in Europe.

That problem is mostly created becuase Muslim become so easily offended, just use the example of the cartoon issue where Muslims in several countries rioted (killing each other or Christians by the hundreds) over a silly little cartoon.

Now go a step further and just imagine how it would be for you if you are not allowed to even display a Piggy Bank at work !!!!!

Yeah, never was the name of your blog more a propos; asymmetry is the core of the hypocritical demands of Moslem immigrants: the right to eliminate any aspects of the host culture not compatible with their preferences, and absolute outrage at any disapproval of, much less pressure to alter, their own primitive cultural norms.

A letter written to Sara Palans church in Wasilla Alaska on 9/11/O8..............................................

I am a published christian author who has a plan to help your assembly of God church and Sara thwart this

media storm now coming at you.

As you know the liberal news media is planning an even greater attack on your

church because of Sara Palen. They are contacting every willing enemy who wants national publicity they can

find in your area.



This political effort will unfairly focus on the false premise that your church

has long practiced extreme doctrines in spite of any evidence you may testify to the

contrary.

They obviously consider such an attack on your church to be their best chance of

discouraging other christians and non christians to view Sara as a serious contender for the whitehouse but a religious nut.

These critics well know that most American christians follow specific Bible doctrines

over political interests.



The plan is to cast both your church and Sara Palan as being outsiders from traditional

biblical christianity. They hope to create the appearance of an agenda driven theology seeking power.

The vulnerabilities they are targeting are to be created to widely exploit the idea

that ...



1. The Iraq war was Gods plan making it appear that Sara has a prophetic call by direct revelation from God to support Iraq.



2. Spread the notion that Sara is motivated by a revelation from God to fulfill

a prophecy that Alaska has a mission from God to save America and the world.



3. To make a direct connection to your church as being the source of this political



doctrine which cannot be supported by the Bible and therefore becomes something



which offends biblical christianity and American voters.



4. Playing up the idea and expectation that Americans do not yet know Sara Palan

and something hidden is going to soon be revealed about her that is sinister.



I have already published a plan to fight back at these charges by sound interpret

ation of the Bible. Suppose these teachings could be deflected away from your church

and entirely separated from Sara Palan? My publication biblically supports Alaska

having a prophetic mission and you can read the prophet Jacobs words from the Bible.. My Book also demonstrates Iraq prophetically being freed by

the great eagle in the end times. Surely America is the simbol of freedom today.



How would this deflect the liberals who plan to exploit these issues?



Why must we derail this? Christians by the thousands are already accepting these ideas from me. They are

buying my book and watching the youtube video on this page which explains these teachings directly

from their own Bible as they follow it along.

Lets turn this issue into a Bible study which will unite christians against the liberals and their secret

plan.



Facts count...Sara Palan was asking the people of Alaska to pray for the troops in Iraq to become

part of Gods plan. Sara was asking the people to pray that Alaska would become part

of Gods plan. She never associated this prayer request with any revelation from God nor church teaching.



Suppose some one else not connected to Sara nor her former church was the

one who actually stated that Alaska and Iraq were Gods plan. This would change



the focus away from your church and Sara and point people to their own Bible for verification.. Here are the facts now published and



available for all christians to examine on youtube.



The Bible designates the state of Alaska in this Bible prophecy. Gods greatest blessing must reach the "utmost bound of the everlasting hills." This prophecy can be seen in Genesis chapter 49:22-26. The Rocky mountains represent the only chain of mountains on the earth which are continuous and endless. Early explorers could never find the end of these prophetic everlasting hills discovered in America. The Biblefs gutmost boundsh of the rockies would not describe south America nor central America, only the western United States can pinpoint North America where the the Rockies clearly lead upwards toward the utmost bounds of the Rockies which pinpoint the Alaska uttermost bounds exactly. The prophet Jacob promised the tribe of Joseph the greatest blessings for the end of days as located exactly at this spot."Gen.49:1" These Biblical Blessings were promises promised above all the other tribes of Israel. See Genesis 49:1 and Genesis 49:22. Joseph recieved the birthright. These are real prophecies in the Bible about Alaska. Sara recognizes the Alaska promises and makes it very clear why her people in the west must prepare their hearts for the blessings God has promised them! Jacob describes the "blessings of the deep that lieth under" or the oil wealth. Gen."49:25. "Both 9/11 and the Iraq war are biblical events which confirm to us why Sara feels so strongly about our troops in Iraq. This is an overview of my book dedicated to Sara Palins mission titled gBible prophecies of 9-11 This is not just another good theory, but an actual Bible prophecy which clearly reveals the Iraq war and also 9/11. This prophecy is plainly written into the Bible. You will literally see the specific details of 9/11 within your own Bible! You will learn why Sara prays for Alaska to bless our nation! This election represents a biliclal moment in time. Critics are now working hard to prove that this discovery is false and have failed to uncover it as another hoax. We invite you to investigate this matter and follow along with your Bible and witness it for yourself. I am currently requesting the help of a small group of christians to assist me on a national news story. A publishing organization affiliated with Salem communications has recently published their official press release which openly declares my biblical discovery to the public. http://www.eternaltruth.net This web sight can provide enough evidence for you to investigate the validity of my claim. I recently published this discovery which opens up a chain of clues dealing with King Nebuchadnezzarfs repentance process as recorded in Daniel chapter four. This recorded event resulted in God blessing Nebuchadnezzar and his ancient land located today in Iraq. That particular blessing involved future promises of freedom in the end times through great eaglefs wings. The eagle today is certainly the symbol of the United states currently bringing this freedom to Iraq as predicted in the Bible. I am contacting people who represent different denominations who can understand and explain type and shadow prophecies.. I am confident that a common continuity of opinion by such persons can validate my discovery to media sources as a worthy news story. This requires a non denominational approach to succeed. The interest factor for the media would be common agreement upon a specific biblical interpretation coming from differing faiths who agree upon a sound interpretation concerning one of the most important issues for this coming election about Iraq. As you know religion has become a central issue for presidential candidates opening up a rare opportunity to promote the importance of God and moral issues. Sara Palan is an example to christians for the following reasons. She has learned how to distinguish good from evil on a level where she no longer fears challenging evil. She sees deeply into the hearts of the people who are hiding an evil agenda. This book teaches you how to see the world the way Sara sees it. The wicked became afraid from the very first moment Sara came upon the national scene. These people instinctively knew that Sara could see them for who they were and could not be controled by their fear. Once christians become enlightened by this book they can gain the same understanding Sara has learned through both experience and wisdom. Christ warns us about people he described as evil vipers. Few can see the depth of exactly why such persons are so dangerous as they work in darkness to destroy everything good. Sara actually fought and removed such people from power in Alaska because she fully understands the depth such evil by knowing how to unmask their vulnerabilities. Simply by having your eyes opened to see good from evil as taught within this book one can likewise be enlightened like Sara Palan. The book gBible prophecies of 9/11 teaches you how to see the monster which is hidden from public view freeing your mind and spirit from the destructive blindness most people cannot fully see. Through this wisdom you gain power over such influences and free your soul from being trapped by their cunning snares. Some of the top conservative sights in America currently have my video presentation posted and available for public view. You may view my video on the Rush Limbaughfs official myspace page. You may view it on Laura Ingrams page as well as numerous other conservative sights and blogs. The Iraq war will be of major political interest during the election. This is rather timely and important. This may be a way for you and others to gain national recognition by helping us unite christian denominations during a critical election year. This is also a chance for people of faith to show our troops a united support for their mission as one christian voice. If you are interested please feel free to view our video and test my biblical claims. Please call concerning any and all questions. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. I need your help. I am not a famous author who can reach the masses of christians who the media is trying to influence against Sara and your church. If there is a way I can help you or you can assist me to change the media focus please contact me. Fox news would surely be willing to change the focus away from Sara and your assembly of God church.www.eternaltruth.net
