Another Reason to Vote for Obama

Well, now I know where a lot of people are going to be spending eternity: in Pitchfork City. According to Janet Porter, you cannot be a Christian and vote for Barack Obama, and if you do, you're going to Hell.
To all those who name the name of Christ who plan to willfully disobey Him by voting for Obama, take warning. Not only is our nation in grave danger, according to the Word of God, so are you.

[...]

To those who call themselves by the name of Christ who ignore what God says about life and marriage, who and are clinging to a fantasy of economic gain, think again.

Obama will use your tax dollars to kill innocent children, and then he'll take your paycheck and use it to "spread the wealth around."

[...]

Be forewarned: If you willfully disobey God on life and marriage because of race or false hope for the economy, you will usher in the kind of change that brought the Soviet Union to collapse.

[...]

If the word of God matters more to you than your perception of personal gain, Joel 2:12 issues a call to repentance I pray you will heed:
"Now, therefore," says the LORD, 'Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning'" (Joel 2:12).
Then obey Him in the voting booth and out of it. If not, do us all a favor and quit calling yourself a Christian.
Actually, I guess for those of us who don't call ourselves Christian -- at least on her terms -- we don't have anything to worry about; it's only the Christians like her that have to plan on sweatin' to the oldies with Old Scratch if they vote for Mr. Obama. And it looks like it lets the Jews and the Muslims and the Hindus and everybody else who doesn't meet her rather un-Christian standards (what was that bit about "judge not lest ye be judged"?) off the hook, too. Hey, free pass, everybody!

I wonder; when God calls Ms. Porter, what name shows up on the Caller ID?

HT to Pam.
