President Obama’s HHS mandate and “accommodation,” derive from Page 94 of Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”

(Updated September 27, 2012) President Obama’s idea for the HHS mandate and “accommodation” (see video and transcript of President Obama’s “Accommodation speech”) comes from page 94 of Saul Alinsky’s book, Rules for Radicals.  See excerpt below:

I have always believed that birth control and abortion are personal rights to be exercised by the individual.  If, in my early days when I organized the Back of the Yards neighborhood in Chicago, which was 95 per cent Roman Catholic, I had tried to communicate this, even through the experience of the residents, whose economic plight was aggravated by large families, that would have been the end of my relationship with the community.  That instant I would have been stamped as an enemy of the Church and all communication would have ceased.  Some years later, after establishing solid relationships, I was free to talk about anything, including birth control.  I remember discussing it with the then Catholic Chancellor.  By then the argument was no longer limited to such questions as, “HOW MUCH LONGER DO YOU THINK THE CATHOLIC CHURCH CAN HANG ON TO THIS ARCHAIC NOTION AND STILL SURVIVE?”"

- Page 94 of Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky

According to President Obama’s actions, the Church cannot hold onto its beliefs and survive in the United States he is remaking.  The Church must submit to the archaic notions of atheism and totalitarianism held by Saul Alinsky (and his followers) and Barack Obama or it will be made to suffer and face extinction.  Though President Obama is unaware that he cannot defeat the Church, he does know he has a fight on his hands because we have said, “We will not comply!”

Keep in mind, President Obama was the executive director and lead organizer of the Developing Communities Project (DCP) in Chicago, Illinois (Obama is acknowledged by DCP in this link.)  DCP was an affiliate of Gamaliel Foundation, an organization that spun off of Saul Alinsky’s, Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF.)  The President of the United States is a student of Alinsky’s methods.  The Holy Father called out his radicalism (click here.)  The President is a radical.

Pray for President Obama, that he will abandon his radical, atheistic and totalitarian methods.

O Holy Spirit, strengthen us to defend all that is holy.

Don’t Give Up Chocolate for Lent! Resolve to Defend Your Church’s Religious Freedom for Lent!

Giving up chocolate for Lent will not save our Church and will not save our country from the loss of religious freedom that radical secularism demands.  Resolving to defend our Church and country from this error are the only hope to restoring our freedom of religion.  So, get out of your comfort zone because the alternative to religious freedom is extremely uncomfortable.

The time has passed for insignificant resolutions during the Lenten season.  Our Church needs us and our Pope has called us to action:

“Here once more we see the need for an engaged, articulate and well-formed CATHOLIC LAITY endowed with a strong critical sense vis-à-vis the dominant culture and with the courage to counter a reductive secularism which would delegitimize the Church’s participation in public debate about the issues which are determining the FUTURE OF AMERICAN SOCIETY.”

What do we need to do to defend the Church?  We need to work now to remove false community organizations from our parishes.  We need to  educate many more Catholics about community organizations manipulation of Catholic social teaching and how it fools Catholics into acting and voting against a Catholic conscience.  The manipulation by these community organizations leads to illegal mandates like President Obama’s HHS contraception, sterilization and abortifacient mandate.  President Obama is a product of this manipulation of Catholic social teaching through the community organization known as GamalielHe worked for Gamaliel in Chicago.

So, how can a Catholic implement a Lenten resolution of defense?  By taking action on the “11 Steps to Remove Socialist Community Organizing from your parish and diocese.”

Defend our Church with these steps and you will do tremendous good.

You can even eat chocolate while you do it.

O Holy Spirit, strengthen us to defend all that is holy.

Warn Lutherans about Alinsky inspired community organizing in their churches

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has a page on its website that shows where to find “community organizing congregations.”

Click on the link below:

Four of the same Alinsky inspired community organizations that we find in our Catholic churches are found in Lutheran churches.  They are DART, Gamaliel, IAF and PICO.

Forward this to your Lutheran friends.
