YOU'RE NOT A 'MURIKAN!!

in #steemit6 years ago

Someone sent me a personal message Today with a video attached. They said if I didn't "Share it"... I wasn't American!!!
The video has a heartwarming Country Music song playing in the background with the word Freedom repeated many times. It's supposedly a Marine Colonel lambasting the NFL for not punishing it's players who don't stand and worship the Flag!

My Wife tells me not to make waves, to never make comments online that diminish the honor of "The Troops". Certainly this rousing little video with it's talk of flag draped coffins stirs ones sense of Honor, and Patriotism. Remember one thing.... When a Young Man or Woman walks into a "Recruiter's Office" and signs that contract, they're VOLUNTEERING to go and kill human beings for money. That's it - End of story. No amount of Yellow Ribbons, flag waving, or attending Parades will change that. Patriotic Country and Western songs don't magically transform that fact.

Here's the problem. If You're Christian, or Jewish... How do you reconcile this with you're faith? How does one find the conscience to look the other way???

Exodus Chapter 20 Verse 13.

Nowhere in this Bible Passage / Nowhere in this Commandment can I find the words "Except", or "Unless". There's no context that allows for ignoring this Bible Verse if Politicians say it's OK, There's no additional Scripture that motivated by Football Stadiums full of flag waving Patriots, you're excused on this one. That somehow you can "Get a Pass".

It simply says - "Thou Shalt not"!!!

This means that you don't sign a paper that says you'll do it if Politicians say so. It means that You're not excused if you've been convinced that you're sinning against Hashem's commandment for a "Noble cause." (Hashem is Translated as "The Name" and used to not take his name in vain.)

It boggles my mind... I just can't wrap my head around how otherwise (Hashem) fearing people can go to Church, and or Synagogue on a regular basis and overlook this, the first time someone waves the "Magic Sky Cloth" in front of their adoring eyes.

Yes Patriotism and honor are things to be admired.... but they MUST be subservient to HIS will!!!

I DON'T hold any ill will towards "The Troops", to the contrary, I love them as a Brother as the Bible commands. I pray for them, that they will see through the bamboozling perpetrated by the Politicians and Plutocrats that they will see war is Wrong. That killing is wrong!!! It doesn't matter what you think about "Hadji", or how much fear you might have He'll "Suicide Bomb" something.

Here's another "Bible Quote" for you.....

It says turn the other cheek..... It doesn't say get on a plane, go to his Homeland, and shoot him in the head so BP can steal his Oil. It doesn't say, "Blow up his Family with cluster bombs" so Purdue Pharmaceutical can have Opium to make Oxycontin with.... It doesn't say bomb his Hospitals because some guys flew a plane into a building, and It doesn't say Kill a million people because he sold some oil for money that wasn't your Country's!!! It doesn't matter if He want's to kill you because you don't have the same religion. It matters that YOU follow the principals of YOUR religion!!! To do otherwise is Hypocrisy. Even as he raises his Sword against you.... Love him as a Brother and fellow Human. This is how you follow Hashem's will..... It's how you'll be rewarded by him in the end.

The politicians and Oligarchs have pounded the message into your head ALL OF YOUR LIFE that somehow THEY can disregard this. That because THEY said so.... You can look the other way. They have no remorse for the TERRIBLE THINGS THEY DO.

Don't listen to them!!! Don't fall into their agenda of greed.
