'We are God's partners in matters of life and death'
A reader points out that President Obama's call with the rabbis today — as recorded in Rabbi Jack Moline's and other clerics' Twitter feeds — freights health care reform with a great deal of religious meaning, and veers into the blend of policy and faith that outraged liberals in the last administration.
"We are God's partners in matters of life and death," Obama said, according to Moline (paging Sarah Palin...), quoting from the Rosh Hashanah prayer that says that in the holiday period, it is decided "who shall live and who shall die."
The president ended the call by wishing the rabbis "shanah tovah," or happy new year — in reference to the High Holidays a month from now.

I can't find any words because they are all bad ones. You'll get the gist of it when I say:

BULLSHITE!

I was under the impression that we were, in fact, the adversaries of fate, doing all in our power to fight death and disease.

Doctors in fact seem to now consider death no longer a natural result of being alive, but an enemy to be faught with every weapon available,

Someone better let the liberal left know that we have someone who believes in God in the Whitehouse. Should send them into convulsions...

When a baby survives an abortion and obama thinks nothing should be done.

Is that how obama wants us to "partner with God" in matters of life and death?!


What a douche:kk2:

No we are not "God's partners in matters of life and death".

We are merely his servants and creation. Period. Never ever partners. So who does this remind you of?

When I read that line, I immediately had a 'vision' of St. Michael loudly saying, "Who is like unto God?!!! to the 'prince of darkness' who once considered himself the 'prince of light'.

Need I say more? V

In fact come to think of it, if this 'partner' who stated this was a 'Biblical Borg', why we'd have to call him 3 of 10.

Considering the 3rd Commandment says, "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain". And there being 10 Commandments, yep, I'd say his new name would be 3 of 10. V

Actually what he said does make sense...perhaps he did read the "gift" Pope Benedict gave him...

"Human history shows, however, how man has abused and can continue to abuse the power and capabilities which God has entrusted to him, giving rise to various forms of unjust discrimination and oppression of the weakest and most defenseless: the daily attacks on human life; the existence of large regions of poverty where people are dying from hunger and disease, excluded from the intellectual and practical resources available in abundance in many countries; technological and industrial development which is creating the real risk of a collapse of the ecosystem; the use of scientific research in the areas of physics, chemistry and biology for purposes of waging war; the many conflicts which still divide peoples and cultures; these sadly are only some of the most obvious signs of how man can make bad use of his abilities and become his own worst enemy by losing the awareness of his lofty and specific vocation to collaborate in the creative work of God." The Sovereign Pontiff Benedict XVI, in the Audience granted to the undersigned Cardinal Prefect on 20 June 2008, approved the present Instruction, adopted in the Ordinary Session of this Congregation, and ordered its publication. Dignitas Personae: On Certain Bioethical Questions
Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith

We can only hope he is really "getting" it and not just using it for personal gain. I am praying.

I do believe when the gift of life happens in the womb of a woman, the woman becomes like a partner in that she then does her job of nurturing that life to bring it to fruition. Having done it twice, I know the miracle of carrying a life inside my body, and interacting with it, and loving it, and "knowing" it before it arrives here "in person". It is truly a miracle and a blessing. It is between God and the mother. And it is, indeed, a partnership - a blessed participation.

"We are God's partners in matters of life and death,"

I don't see Obama as a partner with anyone no less God. He thinks he IS God or more likely the opposite! (Who wonders who he listened to by allowing live babies lucky enough to survive an abortion to DIE?? :dvl1:)

No, "life" doesn't matter to him but I think "death" might.

Exactly Sligo! Bottom line is the mother (or person in charge of the life support, medical reigns, etc.) could reject God's intent and take a life instead.

It is actually a very meaningful statement he made, I just hope it shows he is pondering those issues in a new light. We will see if his actions follow his words. People can change, and the only one who knows the true intent of Obama is God and Obama himself.

Gawd! I REALLY need to get new glasses. I thought the thread said "in Obamas talk with RABBITS!" and never doubted that the twit WAS TALKING WITH RABBITS until I started reading the thread. LOL
 
"...We are God's partners in matters of life and death," Obama said..."


G-d help us if that ever becomes fact.

Hopefully it will remain the province of the marxist wet dreams.

WHO would Use God's name in vain?

this from the baby killer abortion provider with the gay agenda who cheated on his wife, ignores the National Day of Prayer, defiled his body with drugs and bows to a King of Muslim Arabia, threw his parents, Pastor, grandparents and friends under the Bus, Steals from the working rich to give to the lazy and ACORN thugs, and is known to speak more often less than the truth and who can manipulate the ballot box, and didnt have to covet the neighbors house - since Rezko the Slum Lord paid for it.....

are there any other commandments left to break?

That's interesting. I mean I KNEW at least from a Catholic perspective in respect to liberal, radical agendas the subterfuge can be carried off. In other words, just because one sees a clerical collar doesn't mean that Catholic "priest" is really in communion with the Catholic Church. But for some reason I thought the Jews were unable to get away with that.

Making a woman a rabbi is more in the face and skips even the pretense of subterfuge!

So, these are the "religious" icons Obama it aiming to convince and please? Oh well. What else can we expect from a president who attended a church of "Christian" hate for 20 years.

There have been female Reform Rabbi's for at least 20 years. Not so in the Conservative or Orthodox branches of the religion (at least not to my knowledge).

conundrum prefers the fruit of the Tree of Life


...ye shall be as gods...

Genesis 3 (NIV)

The Fall of Man
1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"

2 The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.' "


4 "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.


Genesis 3 (KJV)

1Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

2And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

3But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

4And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

5For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

6And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise
, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

7And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

Partners, huh?

I'd like to think God would be more selective when choosing a partner, not that He needs one.

I know I would be more selective, in fact I was back in November. Lot of good it did me, and the country.
