Elections have a way of revealing the priorities and worldview of society in an objective manner and Barack Obama's historic presidency no exception. As the most radical abortion proponent in American history, Obama's status as President Elect is a bitter pill to swallow and a dose or reality to the Christian Church. In her recent blistering Worldnetdaily column, Jill Stanek explains:
... this means we are fooling ourselves if we think the United States is still a Christian nation. Its people just elected a barbarian as president, authorized the killing of both its youngest and sickest, rejected scientific fact that human life begins at conception, blocked parental intervention of abortions of young girls, and voted down the wording of an abortion ban they said only two years ago they would support.
In our post-modern society it may be hard for some to understand why the election of a pro-abortion president reflects the religion of a nation because many reject the tie between fundamental beliefs and actions or attempt to segment the inner "personal sanctum" of the mind from political persona of a candidate.
Willful actions are driven by the mind and reveal the nature of one's heart. The selection of a candidate who boldly rejects the God-given sanctity of human life provides a sad glimpse into the fundamental desires and priorities of the American mind. Jill is correct, our next president reflects America and, from my point of view, is a diagnostic indicator of the weak and feeble Christian Church in America:
The collective Christian church in America must wake up and finally take responsibility for abortion. That's what Election Day 2008 showed.
What does this mean? What does the Church need to do to "wake-up"?
I'm going to give a first step in one word - repent - not in despair but with hopeful expectation of God's grace:
For the sorrow that is according to [the will of] God produces a repentance without regret, [leading] to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. (2 Corinthians 7:10)
I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I did not hide; I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD"; And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah. (Psalms 32:5)
The second step is part of the first: do what is right.
Finally, despite the election, consider that the witness of Christians and the work of pro-lifers in not dependent upon who is in public office. As we have always done, we will reach out to those in need, we will proclain the truth at abortion killing centers and we will bring the Gospel to the lost. Besides ...
What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [is] against us? - Rom. 8:31


This election is very telling, and is the measure of the believers. God, and we, now know who is faithful to Him; who has compromised Him; and who has rejected Him.
Obama would not have won without the help of Catholics!

Jesus warned about a great "falling away" -- when He comes back will he find anyone with faith left?
apologies to anyone else who wasted their time with this in hopes of something saying 'just kidding' at the end
Obama sure has a long road ahead of him...I think a lot of the public will be disappointed in the months and years to come after they realize the separation and the division that Obama and the elite socialist illuminati will bring into our country.
I think that the U.S. will praise bush for the grat job he did. He
1) got us into a god foresaken was
2) we ar in trillions of dollars in dept
3) and we are loding industry
Wow he was truly an extrodanary man.
Also mnotaro Its sad you feel that way. I dont se a division considering that Oboma gives so many people hope.
We control the house, We control the Senate, we control the presidency and thats the way it will be for the next four years.
Better luck next time.
