Former 2nd VP of Southern Baptists objects to Hindu Senate opening! Raising funds for "hero family"

=====

Former 2nd Vice President of The Southern Baptist Convention Objects to the U.S. Senate Being Opened in the Name of Transcendental Meditation
Contact: Dr. Wiley S. Drake, 714-522-7201



BUENA PARK, Calif., July 13 /Christian Newswire/ -- Pastor Wiley Drake said, "When not one of the 100 members of the U.S. Senate would object on the record, and in proper order, the opening of the U.S. Senate July 12, 2007, Christian observers had no choice but to speak from the gallery of the Senate. Had I been present I too would have stood and objected since none of the Senators would. I believe this was led of The Holy Spirit of God, and I also believe He is pleased with the action of His children and Ambassadors from The Kingdom of Heaven."

Ante and Kathy Pavkovic along with their daughter Kristin Sugar politely spoke out against this and were arrested and jailed for disturbing the U.S. Senate.

"What a shame that not one of our Christian Senators would object to this ungodly action."

The Hindu Chaplain said............


"We meditate on that transcendental deity supreme who is inside the heart of us and inside the life of the sky and inside the soul of the heavens"

What about "One Nation Under God????" The real God our Nation was founded upon.

We have freedom of religion in America but not the freedom to invoke a false god to visit our U.S. Senate.


"When Ante and Kathy Pavkovic with their daughter Kristen Sugar were arrested for speaking out they became hero's of the faithful in my opinion."

Drake said he will use his Internationally Infamous radio show to draw attention to this and help raise funds if needed for this hero family.

7. We hold these truths to be
Edited on Fri Jul-13-07 04:28 PM by Uncle Joe
self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.


self-evident;evident without need of proof or discussion; that produces certainty or clear conviction upon mere presentation to the mind. self-evidence evidence or certainty resulting from a proposition without proof; evidence that ideas offer to the mind upon bare statement.

all men today, that truly means all men and women as well.

created equal; today that literally means what it says, this goes for a person's faith or non-faith as well.

their creator; the keyword here is their, not yours, not mine, by extension this also means if a person does not believe in a creator, then their Creator is a non-creator and the truths are self-evident nonetheless.

unalienable; alienate is to make a stranger; an alien so therefore unalienable means these truths are universal and there are no hoops to jump through, no faiths to profess.

It was these ideals, in which inspired our Founders to risk their lives, families and fortunes by signing their names to, when they John Hancocked the Declaration of Independence.

Kind of makes me curious what this zealot nut job would say and/or do if there were a law prohibiting a daily prayer all together. After all The Constitution states separation of church and state, and I know its a stretch, but I think it would apply here.

Also, unless I miss my guess, didn't we fight a different kind of war over someone trying to force their religion on us?
