n the aftermath of the recent Connecticut “school” shooting, many parents are wondering how to keep their children safe. Unfortunately, pretentious government and school officials, cop clowns, and sentimental reporters are offering the wrong advice – advice that makes you wonder about their complicity. The common refrains from all these groups are more school security, tighter gun legislation, and hug your kids. One parent lamented, “It just makes you wonder if our kids are safe anymore.”

A Practical Comparison: Christians vs. Pagans
It’s remarkable today to compare those who are Christ lovers with those who are Christ haters.

Rev. Paul T. McCain: Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda
In this utterly ignorant Facebook Note (blog post here), Pastor Paul McCain showcases why the Church is dead. His asinine State school propaganda and bourgeois Fox News style rhetoric can be pursued on your own time. The issue here transcends his grade school view of Lincoln’s war; it is about a type of treason and cowardice which can only displayed in learned “ministers” of the gospel.
You see, if the church is the ground and pillar of truth, the salt and light of the world, then we expect all Elders of Christ’s church to be at the forefront of exposing and challenging the tyranny that assaults their sheep. Precisely because the shepherd of souls has this weighty responsibility, James says that not many should become teachers as such will bear stricter judgment (James 3:1). Pulling down strongholds and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ is the line of work that wins you scars, not friends.
Soliciting for Jesus in Haiti: Mark Driscoll & James McDonald
“Pastors” Mark Driscol and James McDonald have given us three videos to sort though as we thumb through our checkbooks:
- “Rioting is ready to ensue.” In the San Fransisco earthquake of 1906, was there rioting? Murder? Looting? No? Why not?
- A destroyed church is what Pastor Jimmy came to see. Yeah, and though you can’t physically see it you can vicariously experience it because it’s your responsibility to rebuild a Haiti church: “When do God’s people roll up their sleeves and open up their checkbooks and give with their whole hearts to rebuild the church of Jesus Christ; that’s our responsibility. That’s the challenge we’re bringing.”
- How many instances of appeal to pity can you find here? But it’s not a fallacy when you’re doing the Lord’s work. At least Driscol gave us his reason for being there: “We’re moving as fast as we can…throughout the city to show you the need that is so great for churches to help churches. So we would love you to give.” One thing is for sure: “We’re doing what we can.”
Another thing–probably the most important thing– is to ponder how many times “Christian community” is referenced. Look for words like:
- pastor
- Christians
- worship leader
- church
- faith
- Jesus
- God’s people
Now what’s the big deal about appealing to Christians to help Christians?
Well, Haiti has a notorious history of self- destruction, anti-Christ behavior, voodoo, and murdering whites in so barbarous a manner that it’s difficult to repeat. After the blacks butchered every white soul on the island, they reverted to their African satanic ways, transforming what was under French rule the “gem of the West Indies” into a dusty rat whole.
The Manhattan Delcaration
Many have written about this new declaration on ecumenical social action. I thought I would give some useful rhetorical and provocative thoughts. I’ll be using the short version, but occasionally drawing on points from the larger.
Family First
Christians, when they have lived up to the highest ideals of their faith, have defended the weak and vulnerable and worked tirelessly to protect and strengthen vital institutions of civil society, beginning with the family.
Excellent, and true. For example, for the better part of two millennia Christian women worked in the home rearing children and didn’t dare split the solidarity of the family by attempting to vote along side their husband, whether in church or state elections.
Ben Stein: To the Jew First
Ben Stein gave many Christian leaders warm fuzzies when he launched Expelled, a documentary about the academic conspiracy to keep “intelligent design” (not design by the Triune God of Scripture) out of the lab and classroom. Watch R. C. Sproul and Stein blather about it here. Joining forces with Stein is a double success for the Christian because it adds a special bonus to the cause of getting “a” nebulous but intelligent creator back in anti-Christ schools: the nobility of working with a Jew.
