Reasons to vote against Jody Hice as written by Rev. Hice himself

ALL TAKEN VERBAIM FROM “NOW OR NEVER” BY JODY HICE

CHAPTER ONE: BEWARE OF YOUR WORLDVIEW

“Freedom without a Judeo-Christian framework is not freedom; it is lawless and violent. Our historical system of belief is the only soil in which freedom can exist…” (Page25)

“The problem is that we are trying to exercise liberty from a secular humanist worldview, and it does not work! ‘Freedom’ within any context other than a Judeo-Christian one, only leads to corruption.” (Page 26)

“Either we will keep a Judeo-Christian outlook or we will embrace an atheistic secular one.” (Page 30)

“Within secular humanism, man is viewed as the ultimate and most supreme intelligence, which allows government to take on a unique role… the role of God!” (Page 31)

“In secularism, God is not real and an ‘elite’ class of men becomes the final authority.” (Page 31)

“A Christian worldview is not only appropriate; it is absolutely indispensable for a just and civil society.” (Page 38)  

CHAPTER TWO:  BIGGER THAN LIFE

“How many times have we denounced the murderous acts of people like Hitler? Most certainly, his Actions and similar ones by other political leaders should be vehemently condemned! Yet, we so easily overlook the genocide that has been committed within our own country. Our murderous dealings are much worse than Hitler’s six million Jews or Mussolini’s three hundred thousand.  The genocide in America is inexcusable! It is worse than genocide. We are guilty of eugenics!” (Page 42)

“A black baby is three-times more likely to be murdered in the womb than a white baby. Twice as many African-Americans have died from abortion than have died from AIDS, accidents, violent crimes, cancer, and heart disease combined. 

Every three days in this country, more African Americans are killed by abortion than have been killed by the Klu Klux Klan in its entire history. 

As everyone knows, Planned Parenthood operates the nation’s largest chain of abortion clinics. What you may not know is that almost 80 percent of its facilities are located in minority neighborhoods. This is by design! Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, made it clear that part of her mission was to eliminate the black race. The method to accomplish her gruesome fantasy is abortion, and she envisioned a clinic in every black community. About 17 percent of live births in America are black children, but they compromise over 36 percent of the abortions. (Pages 42-43)

“The fact that eugenics is an entrenched element of Planned Parenthood’s existence cannot be refuted. Sanger actually stated ‘We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population….’ Sanger referred to African Americans, immigrants and poor people as being, “… human weeds, ‘reckless breeders,’ spawning… human beings who never should have been born.” (Page 44)

“We must elect men and women to office who will genuinely support prolife legislation with a passion.” (Page 51)

“Abortion is clearly unconstitutional.” (Page 53)

“Multiple states are seeking a Personhood Amendment with Mississippi leading the charge.” (Page 54)

“It is my belief that with steadfast resolve and uncompromising convictions, we will eventually witness the overturning of Roe v. Wade. What a day that is going to be! The time is now or never. Let’s go for it!”

CHAPTER THREE: MARRIAGE: IT’S NOT ABOUT LOVE        

The battle over marriage will determine the future survival of America. (Page 59)

None of us would exist without the natural and biological role of a marriage like union.” (Page 59)

Lawrence v. Texas produced a moral earthquake created by Supreme Court Justices who, out of thin air, contrived a constitutional basis for homosexual behavior and laid the groundwork for reshaping marriage, and for criminalizing those who support its traditional meaning.

With no precedent whatsoever and with an attitude set on vacating the Bowers decision, the Court determined that homosexual sodomy is a fundamental right with full protection under the U.S. Constitution. There is no doubt this was a massive departure from American jurisprudence and it transmitted indescribable damage to marriage as well as the culture as a whole.” (Page 62)

“In a 4-3 ruling, the Massachusetts Supreme Court radically redefined ‘marriage’ for its citizens by declaring any prohibitions against same-sex ‘marriage’ unconstitutional. Further the court arrogantly announced that there was no rational basis for prohibiting same-sex ‘marriage.” “In American jurisprudence, politics, and morality there was no turning back at this point.” “A battle for America’s moral soul was in full swing and every state, district and precinct became potential ground for victory or loss.” 

“In less than a decade the American populace went from a ‘one man and one woman definition, to total confusion about marriage. It all developed under the guise and legal twists of constitutional ‘rights.’ (Page 62-63).

“These shocking words by Michael Swift have been considered part of the ‘gay manifesto’ by many, and reveal the radical agenda that is threatening our nation:

“We shall sodomize tour sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theatre bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all-male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will come to crave and adore us.

The family unit – spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy, and violence – will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated.

All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only Gods are handsome young men.”

“One need not look very far to discover the overall agenda of militant homosexuality, and its attempt to permanently change American society.” (Page 70)

“The homosexual movement wants to eliminate free speech. (Page 71)

“Radical homosexual advocates are destroying our nation through activist judges and lawmakers imposing pro-homosexual attitudes in every school, workplace and public setting. (Page 72)

“If it were not for the black-robed autocrats over-reaching their constitutional authority, we would not be facing the marriage issue with the severity that currently exists. One has to wonder how they have been so successful in manipulating and abusing the U.S. Court system. They have done so and our nation’s entire system of justice is being destroyed. (Page 73)

Another horrible component of the homosexual agenda and its destructive influence on our nation is the way in which children are being preyed upon through active pro-gay indoctrination and recruitment. (Page 73)

“The result has been thousands of students beginning to experiment with homosexual encounters. Even middle school students are dabbling with gay relationships as the latest vogue and fashionable behavior of the day.” (Page 74)

“The homosexual movement is also destroying America by aggressively seeking to destroy traditional families, religion and marriages for the purpose of removing all societal moral boundaries.” (Page 75)

“Those of us who are standing for marriage must recognize that the only obstacle between total acceptance of homosexuality as normal, and a wholesome understanding of sexuality is a biblical position.” (Page 75)

“Consequently, they (gay) are more prone to destructive behavior because of low self esteem and feelings of open condemnation. (Page 76)

“Just as the ‘spin’ is to divert blame away from (gay teens) personal choices and onto the ‘religious right’ who have made these children suffer self-esteem problems, the attempt will also be made to produce legislation to advance their cause.” (Page 77)

“For instance an individual cannot marry someone who is already married, even if he really ‘loves’ her. Similarly a person who is married cannot find a third person to marry. The concept of ‘love’ is not the issue when it comes to marriage! People love all kinds of other people and things, but that does not grant permission for marriage. It is illegal to marry a child or a sibling. It is illegal to marry a pet, which many people love so dearly. So, it is fair to say that marriage is not simply about two people who love each other.” (Page 79)

“Some ask the question, “How does same sex-‘marriage’ threaten your marriage?” The answer is similar to asking, “How does a trashy neighborhood affect you?” (Page 81)

CHAPTER FOUR: THE TRUTH ABOUT HATE CRIMES

“Elected representatives in Washington D.C. actually attached a hate crime bill to the Defense Authorization spending bill. By so doing, they associated ‘hate crimes’ with terrorism. This was nothing but a politically correct way of saying, “those who disagree with the liberal, radical, left-wing agenda have the same mentality of terrorists, and need to be dealt with accordingly.” (Page 83)

“Truthfully, there is no significant national problem of unfairness or harm against the gay and lesbian community. In fact, in many ways they already enjoy more rights and freedoms than other Americans.” (Page 83)

“The goal is to create through threat of punishment and thereby, silence opponents. By so doing, the influence of those who hold to traditional moral values will be squelched, and the liberal, sexually twisted agenda of the Left will march forward, unchallenged. That is what ‘hate crime legislation is about.” (Page 86)

“There is no need for special legislation giving superior protection to any group of people, especially when there is validation or evidence of a problem! In reality, it is unconstitutional to categorize people and give special protection.” (Page 87)

“ENDA will force companies, non-profits and churches to hire homosexuals against their will, and it will liberate them to behave any way they want to, without consequences or threat of termination.” (Page 88)

CHAPTER FIVE: RELIGIOUS LIBERTIES UNDER SIEGE 

“These days, nearly everyone is aware of the ‘culture war’ but very few realize how close Christians are from being considered criminals, worthy of severe punishment, simply for standing in favor of their values.’ (Page 92)

CHAPTER SIX: THE SECOND AMENDMENT DISARMED 

“There are multiple claims that conservatives and/or members of the ‘religious right’ have mental disorders.” (Page 108)

“With this type of undercurrent already taking place, can you imagine an elite-minded government that is bent on disarming and silencing constitutionalists, declaring them to be ‘mentally unstable’ and therefore, unable to possess a firearm?” (Page 108)

CHAPTER SEVEN: THE RISE OF AMERICA’S POLICE STATE

“Under the deception of ‘safety from terrorists’ American leaders have stolen liberty from the citizens and we, in turn, have willfully forfeited the rights of the Fourth Amendment for an erroneous sense of security. Increasingly, the United States is imposing unconstitutional authority over its citizens, forcing them to be completely compliant and subordinate to the state through the power granted to police, school administrators and local and federal agents.” (Page 125)

“From every appearance, public schools are being transformed into police states and centers of indoctrination.” (Page 127)

“This type of attitude is becoming more prevalent within our government is downright terrifying. The mindset is that children are basically property of the state and government can do as they please with them, without parental notification.” (Page 129)

“Where are we headed and how have we allowed ourselves to evolve into a police state? Increasingly law enforcement on every level of local, state and federal government is looking more militaristic. In fact, their uniforms, training weapons and tactics are becoming more intimidating with an increasing display of strong-armed tactics than ever before.” (Page 131)

CHAPTER EIGHT: PARENTAL RIGHTS VS. GUARDIAN GOVERNMENT

“Seemingly, parents do not ‘love’ their children as much as the government, nor are they fit to effectively instruct them.” (Page 133)

“The public school system has miserably failed, and there are at least three glaring reasons for its failure 1.) It is a monopoly that is forced upon tax payers; 2.) It is based on centralized decision-making from Washington D.C. (the Department of Education should be eradicated!); and 3) schools have become centers of indoctrination and social engineering through the abusive are of political correctness.’ (Page 140)

“R.C. Hoiles was publisher of the Santa Ana register, now known as the Orange County Register. In 1957 he wrote a classic work about alarming trends within the public schools at that time. With almost prophetic accuracy, his words have proven frighteningly precise today. He listed twenty-one ways that public schools harm children. The following abbreviated version of his concerns comprises what he says public schools dare not teach:

1. They dare not teach the spirit of the Constitution as set forth in the first official document of the United States, the Declaration of Independence. They dare not teach it because it says that all men, not just the majority, are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
2. They dare not teach that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed. They have to completely repudiate the ideas of the American way of life. They have to teach the old-world philosophy of the divine right of governments…
3. They dare not teach in government schools the meaning of liberty. If the government schools successfully taught the meaning of the liberty our Founding fathers had in mind, there would be no government schools that starve the intellects of our children.
4. The government schools dare not teach the meaning of the Golden Rule. If they were successful in getting their pupils to understand that they should not force other people to pay for something they did not want, then they could see that it was a violation of the Golden Rule to force others to pay for their schooling.
5. They dare not teach the First Commandment: “Thou shalt have no other Gods before me’ because they are bowing down and worshipping the will of the majority rather than the eternal laws of God that no man made and no man can unmake.
6. They dare not teach, “Thou shalt not covet,” because they are violating the Coveting Commandment. They (teachers) get their pay by violence (forced taxation) rather than by rendering service well enough so that those who pay them believe they are benefitted by their unemployment.
7. They dare not teach discipline and self reliance because they are not disciplining themselves enough to render such service that they can be aid voluntarily.
8. They dare not teach thrift and the harm that comes from getting into debt. They dare not do this because the government burdens every child and every person in the United States with monstrous debt. They dare not do this because the government burdens every child and every person in the United States with a monstrous debt.
9. They dare not teach respect for individual initiative because government schools are based o lack of respect for other people’s initiative. They are based on the theory that “We’ve got the power and the individual is helpless and we’re going to make him pay for anything our agents think is education.”
10. They dare not teach humility and meekness because the means used by government schools are the exact opposite of humility and meekness. Are believers in tax-run schools so sure that they are right that they are willing to initiate force to make people support their ideas of education?
11. They dare not teach children to reason. They have to teach them not to recognize a contradiction or a dilemma. If the pupils were taught to reason, they would recognize the tyranny that is bound to follow…
12. They dare not teach the harm that follows socialism, communism, collectivism and fascism for to do so would let pupils realize that aggressive force is part of socialism, communism, collectivism and fascism for to do so would let pupils realize that aggressive force is part of socialism, communism, collectivism and fascism.
13. They dare not teach the difference between socialism and private ownership of property. They dare not explain that under socialism the only way a man can benefit is by injuring another…
14. They dare not teach the difference between socialism and private ownership of property. They dare not explain that under socialism the only we a man can benefit is by injuring another…
15. They dare not explain that in free enterprise, including free enterprise in education, the gain of one is the gain of all.
16. Tax-run schools dare not teach love and charity because they are using aggressive force.
17. They cannot teach patience because they are so impatient about getting what they seems to believe is an education that they dare not wait to persuade those who should employ them to pay their salaries.
18. They cannot teach peace and goodwill because they are an example of the opposite of peace and goodwill.
19. They cannot teach that the government is a servant of individuals because they believe it should be supported by giving it a monopoly to se aggressive force to make people pay.
20. They cannot teach justice because their method of supporting the schools is based on injustice – arbitrary, initiated force.
21. They cannot teach that each man is responsible for his own life because they deny that by using force to take part of man’s energy against his will, and man cannot be responsible for his life unless he has the right to choose. (Pages 140-142)

“Knowing that multiple attempts are being made to indoctrinate the mind of your child in school into the values of humanism and secularism, will you fight for your family and stand up to be counted in place of those who will not stand?” (Page 146)

CHAPTER NINE: RADICAL ISLAM

  “When taken in its entirety, Islam is not a religion. Rather it is a totalitarian way of life complete with its own legal system (Sharia Law), financial structure, military and government system. Although Islam has a religious component, it is much more than a simple religious ideology. It is a complete geo-political structure, and as such, does not deserve First Amendment protection.” (Page 151)

“Nearly half of our states are currently dealing with Sharia law, and our government seems more than willing to defend Sharia than our own constitution.” (Page 152)

“Although ‘terror’ is a real threat and must be taken seriously, the worst plan is the Muslim Brotherhood’s attempt to take over America! Don’t think it can’t happen.

CHAPTER TEN: THE RELIGIOUS LEFT   

“Twisting biblical truth for the purpose of deceiving or shaming Christians into liberal policies is unconscionable, un-American and extremely dangerous.” (Page 169)

CHAPTER ELEVAN: ESSENTIAL DETERRENTS TO SOCIALISM 

“The U.S. constitution powerfully limits the authority of elitists who desperately want to control every aspect of our lives. They are determined to alter it in order to achieve their unconstitutional agenda. (Page 173)

“The Seventeenth Amendment should also be repealed. As another attempt to curb state rights, the Seventeenth was ratified in 1913. It allowed for citizens to directly elect Senators rather than the initial constitutional plan, which called for Senators to be appointed by their various state legislatures. (Page 175)

“Secularism, humanism and socialism are feverishly contrasting philosophies to America’s system of liberty. They are sister-evils, and together compromise the fuel and fire of big government. They are direct enemies of freedom. (Page 176)

Obama: “Failed policies of a ‘Community Organizer’ whose fundamental beliefs despise the American system of free enterprise (page 178)

“The Obama’s view of free markets not disguised during the campaign; nonetheless, America bought into the “Change you can believe in” slogan. In my opinion, the “C” in Obama’s slogan should have been the hammer and sickle, the emblem of socialism, because that is the type ‘change’ he implemented. (Pages 179-180)

CHAPTER TWELVE: GETTING PASTORS AND CHURCH LEADERS INVOLVED

“As a result of ‘pulpit silence,’ a huge percentage of America’s church members do not even embrace a Christian worldview; and so far as cultural issues are concerned, the church has been largely, absent.” (Page 198)

“Unfortunately, deceptive and unconstitutional bullies often threaten religious liberty and free speech.” (Page 200)

“Please, Christian leaders arise and sound the alarm! Lead the way, lest we lose our godly heritage and die in our iniquity.” (Page 201)

CHAPTER THIRTEEN: STATE SOVEREIGNTY: THE FED’S GREATEST FEAR

Author and Tenth Amendment specialist, Steve Palmer says, “Most discussions of the Tenth Amendment centers around using the state legislature to enforce it when the Supreme Court fails to do so. In that situation the state legislature to enforce it when the Supreme Court fails to do so. In that situation, the state legislature declares a (federal) law null and void within the state’s borders.” (Page 204)

Steve palmer, “The Individual and the Tenth,” Tenth Amendment Center, http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/2010/03/23/the-individual-and-the-tenth/.

“Unfortunately, the Civil War drastically altered the constitutional view of states’ rights. Although the technical reasons for the War are still being debated, there is no doubt that tensions between the North and the South started shortly after the Revolution…. And of course, there was the horrendous debate over slavery, which was considered the nucleus of Southern economy…. No doubt. Lincoln was in a very difficult position and from his perspective; the only way to salvage the nation was to expand government powers over individual states. Morally, his decision appeared reasonable; slavery needed to be addressed. (Page 205)

CHAPTER FOURTEEN: COMBATING A SECULAR WORLDVIEW

“However, to embrace other key elements of the libertarian movement will eventually lead to a conflict with Christian principles, especially in light of the existing American culture. Specifically, the idealistic treatment of social issues within libertarianism is problematic. In a nutshell, their belief is that government should have little-to-nothing to do by way of restricting certain behaviors and those individuals should be essentially free to do as they wish. The attitude is that “it is not the government’s business to tell me how to live.” That outlook sounds very ‘liberating’ and constitutional, but in reality, it is inherently dangerous.” Page 218-219) 

“Libertarians often pride themselves in being fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Truthfully, the one is made impossible if the later is left unattended. There are many examples that could be used, but let’s consider no-fault divorce and weak family policies. This “liberal” approach has been part of a cultural problem, encouraging out-of-wedlock relations that lead to fatherless families. It now costs Americans about one trillion dollars decade because of the single mother plight.” Page 219)
