Rap's War Against The Faith

October 31. 2009

Jay-Z

Ungrateful rappers such as Jay-Z and Lil Wayne, have proclaimed themselves atheists, while spreading their poisonous music to people's children. Their lyrics are laced with profanity, misogyny, violence, abuse, anger and slurs, with a divisive underlying message that goes against the faith.

Jay-Z, is married to hypocritical singer, Beyonce, who claims she is a Christian, yet does not exhibits the evidence thereof, as her deeds are filled with avarice, envy, greed, theft and resentment, regarding others with anything of financial substance or social prominence.

Jay-Z is a bitter, hateful rapper, that was always resentful of anyone who had anything and resorted to selling drugs, as a way to live a lavish lifestyle, rather than earn an honest living. He then took that drug money and parlayed it into a music company, where he robbed his partner and many others out of copyrights, in violation of the law.

Jay-Z's new album contains questionable lyrics on songs such as "Empire State Of Mind" which state, "Jesus can't save you. Real life starts when church ends."

Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne unwisely proclaimed in an article, "I don’t believe the Bible, nothing that’s written, because nothing that’s written is to be believed… Well. There is one [book] I read and get information from. The da*n dictionary."

He also has lyrics such as "Whip it like a slave" that caused much offense in the black community. He is currently facing prison time for illegal gun possession.

Rather than be thankful for the podium they have, some rappers engage in lascivious behavior and set terrible examples for young people listening to their music.

You should not allow your children to support such people in any manner, as it is detrimental to their mental health and social well being.


Free Speech Challenges

October 31. 2009

A 67-year old Christian, Pauline Howe, wrote to her local council, stating she did not agree with a gay pride parade, labeling it "indecency" and they visited her, “Warning her she might be guilty of a hate crime and that the matter had been passed to police.”

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the danger of regulating people's speech. The least little thing a person says that is in peaceful, non-threatening disagreement with someone else's view, becomes hate speech.

It undermines free speech and democracy, when a person cannot simply state a peaceful opinion without being threatened.

Hate crimes case in Britain should signal a warning to Christians in America

October 28, 10:56 - The problem is not exclusive to Great Britain. More than ever before, free speech and religious freedoms are under attack right here in America.

In last night’s legal segment of Fox’s 'The O’Reilly Factor,' the panel discussed the story of Pauline Howe a 67-year old Christian woman who wrote a letter to town council voicing her opposition to a Gay Pride parade. Her letter reportedly stated the event is a 'public display of indecency' that was 'offensive to God'.

The Norwich City Council responded to Howe with their own letter “warning her she might be guilty of a hate crime and that the matter had been passed to police.”

“Two officers later turned up at the frightened grandmother's home and lectured her about her choice of words before telling her she would not be prosecuted,” according to UK’s MailOnline.

But Howe’s case still may be headed to court. The Christian Institute is “looking into potential breaches of freedom of speech and religious rights under the Human Rights Act, either by Norwich City Council or Norfolk Police.”

Here’s the reason Howe’s story is an important one to note in the U.S. The legal panel on Foxnews noted that we have the First Amendment, as if to say, a Mrs. Howe here in America is protected under constitutional law. Also, the consensus was that no judge in their right mind would prosecute an old lady whose “intent” was not to harm anyone. I understand this is because of the difficulty in proving someone's intent, and is a common defense.

However, there is a problem with the notion that 'intent' would determine the innocence or guilt in a hate crimes case...
