Whom does she pray to?


I would bet money that she prays to a god that really isn’t God in the Judeo-Christian understanding, but a “divine” idea. Jesus would be no greater than Buddha, Zoroaster, Muhammad, Confucius, Krishna, Joseph Smith, or Foucault. There are many paths to “heaven,” if such a place exists, where... presumably, God blesses sodomy. In other words, it is a God created in her mind to serve her mind. There is nothing greater than her god that “spiritual” people haven’t already been displayed on the pages of the Humanist Manifesto. In other words, it is humanism that is really being prayed to, not the Creator of the space-time-continuum that proved who He was by rising from the grave and living a sacrificial life for this (me) sinner who daily falls short of what He requires of me making me aware that I need His grace.

Buddha, Zoroaster, Muhammad, Confucius, Krishna, Joseph Smith, or Foucault never admitted that they were God, who is outside of -- as well as the Creator of -- the space-time-continuum. Evolution and some chemical reaction to firing neurons create the need for a spiritual life in Pelosi’s mind’s eye, as most secularists’ believe, as the Humanist Manifesto clearly states.

I want to close with a quote from a scholar on this issue, a non-Christian scholar mind you:

I want to leave the reader with this thought by Robert Hume. In his book, The World’s Living Religions, he comments that there are three features of Christian faith that “cannot be paralleled anywhere among the religions of the world” [I can add here, the cults either]. These include the character of God as a loving Heavenly Father, the character of the founder of Christianity as the Son of God, and the work of the Holy Spirit. Further, he says:

“All of the nine founders of religion, with the exception of Jesus Christ, are reported in their respective sacred scriptures as having passed through a preliminary period of uncertainty, or of searching for religious light. All the founders of the non-Christian religions evinced inconsistencies in their personal character; some of them altered their practical policies under change of circumstances. Jesus Christ alone is reported as having had a consistent God-consciousness, a consistent character himself, and a consistent program for his religion” (p.285-286).

It isn't a God whom I say to worship either, but this God revealed Himself revelationally (special and natural), and one must bow a knee to that God and not to one's own ideals.
