Michelle Bachman vs the renaissance/enlightenment -
08-15-2011, 05:12 PM
I think I've found my candidate:
It's the Renaissance, stupid.
The economy is not what ails us today. No, what ails Americans is what Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and their artistic spawn have wrought in the culture, starting 500 years ago. The Renaissance has dragged us all down.
Tea party queen and Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann is convinced that America is sinking into tyranny. Why? In a remarkable profile of the candidate appearing in the Aug. 15 issue of the New Yorker magazine, the artistic flowering of the Italian Renaissance takes a beating for having done away with the god-fearing Dark Ages.
Bachmann "belongs to a generation of Christian conservatives whose views have been shaped by institutions, tracts, and leaders not commonly known to secular Americans, or even to most Christians," writes Ryan Lizza, who spent four days on the campaign trail talking with the candidate and her husband.
...artists...are " caught in the trap of false and harmful worldviews" -- specifically, those that have trickled down from wicked Renaissance humanism. "As the medieval period merged into the Renaissance (beginning roughly in the 1300s)," she wrote, " a drumbeat began to sound for the complete emancipation of reason from revelation -- a crescendo that burst into full force in the Enlightenment (beginning in the 1700s)."
Got that? The 1700-century enlightenment ideals that America's system of government is built on are false and harmful in Michele Bachman's mind. She's got my vote!

What did the Renaissance; give us homosexuals prancing arround in public in the name of "art"
And what does gay in public lead to.

As she should well know with her sissy boy husband who can't even eat a corn dog in a manly way like Michele can. Michele knows what the post Rationalist Nightmare future because she lives in her own bed room; Godly and moral Christian women being forced to constantly punish and discipline their girlish-prancing husbands to stop them from having gay sex.
Bachmann is Sara Conor and the gay is the Terminator and she's going to stop it. REAL Americans® need to look into their TRUE Christian™ hearts and help her SAVE the world before it's too late.
Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

It's sad that her campaign never really took off. I blame the lack of a theme song. I would have used a patriotic one, (ie one with " American" in the title). Also, it would call attention to her greatest asset, the fact that if you don't vote for her it proves you're sexist. So it should have " woman" in the title. The actual lyrics aren't important, only wonkish nerds have enough attention span to notice those.
Anyway, there is such a song, by "The Guess Who", and re-recorded by Lenny Kravitz, called " American Woman".
Disagree? By failing to register and debate me, you prove that liberals are factless frauds who only persuade through intimidation. To prove otherwise, debate me!

Brother, I'm thinking that particular song would be a better choice for Michelle Obama's theme song!
With minor tweaks to the lyrics:
Quote:
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hanging around my door
I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time payin' tax to you
Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knocking around my door
I don't want to see your shadow no more
Colored gals can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say
Don't come hanging around my door
Don't want to see your face no more
I don't need your diet plan
I don't need your mulatto man
Now woman, get away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be

Bachmann is perfectly right! The renaissance brought in humanism. Humanism teaches "homo mensura", that man is the measure of all things. The renaissance also introduced the "I do what I want" mentality.
With renaissance thinking and erosion of traditional values the western world is moving towards a catastrophe. Love of one's neighbour, work ethics and respect for authority are declining. Perversions, greed and deceptions are increasing.
The renaissance is satanistic. Man should not worship other men like Leonardo da Vinci.
Praise Jesus!
Rev 5:2 "And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?"
Matt 5:17-20 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven:..."
