VOTE YOUR CONSCIENCE?
Mitt Romney’s choice for vice president is Paul Ryan. He is listed as a Roman Catholic, but he says his life has been influenced for good by the teachings of Ayn Rand. here are just a few of her quotes.
* Faith is the worst curse of mankind, as the exact antithesis and enemy of thought.
* The alleged short-cut to knowledge, which is faith, is only a short circuit destroying the mind.
* And now I see the face of god, and I raise this god over the earth, this god whom men have sought since men came into being, this god who will grant them joy and peace and pride. This god, this one word: I.
I love how works. With all the conservative evangelicals lining up to vote President Obama out of office, the conservative ticket presents a cult member and a Roman Catholic who is influenced by an atheist. Aw shucks! Now what do we do? (sarcasm intended)
Go ahead, vote your conscience. Who would Jesus vote for? No one. He is already King. Go and do likewise.
Dear brother:
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding us all that Paul Ryan is a devotee of the "philosophy" of Ayn Rand: militant atheism and self-worship.
Chuck Colson, bless his heart was warning "Christian conservatives" a few years ago against Ayn Rand's poison in their worldview. His comments still hold true:

Electoral slates seldom represent anything more than human political connivance and ambition. The Romney-Ryan pairing truly brings together the greatest of "religious" and secular evils. That these are presented as the candidates Christians should follow is a violent attack on Jesus' sovereign rule in the mind and affections of the American Church.
In this deepening spiritual darkness, may all who follow King Jesus shine BRIGHTER in love and fierce obedience to HIM alone !!
In Jesus, Steve
