In a century or two, the current irrelevance of human life will be looked at
with the same sadness as slavery is today. While most of the Christian world
waits and prays that the outcome of the imminent US election will provide a
step towards reversing the decline in human rights and dignity that has been
promoted till now, Samuele Bacchiocchi is concerned about ... wait for it
... the Pope and Islam. He worries about how Bush helped ruin America with
the former, and how Obama will help ruin America with the latter.

I experienced the most recent Endtime
Issues<http://www.biblicalperspectives.com/endtimeissues/eti_216.htm>as
the most extreme narrow-mindedness I have ever seen come out of
Bacchiocchi's keyboard. I know he isn't saying that we must forget the life
issues - he's not saying anything. But the message I get is the same - "Thou
shalt not kill" is ignored, and "The Pope and Islam are your two worst
nightmares" seems to be presented as the key issue in the coming election.

I don't know whether Bacchiocchi would be willing to work with Catholics on
important social issues both Adventists and Catholics feel the same about. I
know some Adventist leaders have recommended avoiding working alongside
Catholics even on such matters. Such statements make me think their brain is
in such an anti-Catholic cramp that it just cannot move past that, and that
even their morning jog is infected with some anti-Catholic OCD-type of
disorder. This latest Bacchiocchi
production<http://www.biblicalperspectives.com/endtimeissues/eti_216.htm>makes
me feel the same.

For now, human rights be stuffed - the important things about this election
is that it might allow Obama to empower the evils of Islam just as Bush
empowered the evils of Catholicism.

Grow up. Get a life. Move past your prophecies and prophetess and Sabbath
that we papists and islamists all just want to tramp on and destroy, and see
the real picture.
