On February 18, 2012, Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum warned about the “phony theology” of President Barack Obama.
“It’s not about you,” Santorum told supporters of the right-wing Tea Party in Columbus, Ohio. “It’s not about your quality of life. It’s not about your jobs.
“It’s about some phony ideal. Some phony theology. Oh, not a theology based on the Bible. A different theology.”
Rick Santorum
Which raises an interesting question: What would a Bible-based agenda mean for the country?
The death penalty would be vastly expanded to cover such “crimes” as:
- Sabbath-breaking: Because the Lord considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death. (Exodus 31:12-15)
- Adultery: If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death. (Leviticus 20:10)
- Fornication: A priest’s daughter who loses her honor by committing fornication and thereby dishonors her father also, shall be burned to death. (Leviticus 21:9)
- Nonbelievers: They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13)
- Homosexuality: If a man also lies with mankind, as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. (Leviticus 20-13)
A modern-day stoning–in Somalia
The Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution–which forbids slavery–would be repealed. The Bible not only permits slavery but lays out rules for its practice–such as:
-
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. (Exodus 21-7)
- However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. (Leviticus 25:44-45)
- Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. (1 Peter 2:18)
Almost all scientific progress would be discarded, since most of its findings conflict with the Bible:
- One generation passes away, and another generation comes: but the earth abides forever. (Ecclesiastes 1:4). This claim is totally contradicted by what astronomers now know about the eventual fate of the Earth: In about 7.6 billion years, the sun will exhaust its nuclear fuels. This will vastly increase its heat and gravitational pull, and at least Mercury, Earth and Venus will be vaporized.
The sun
- The Bible speaks of a world where physical laws are often violated by the will of God. Thus, Jesus turns water into wine and raises Lazarus from the dead; Jonah lives inside a fish for three days; Noah dies at 950 years; and demons are exorcised.
- In Biblical times, mental illness was seen as a manifestation of demonic possession. Today we know that mental illness has nothing to do with evil spirits.
Laws guaranteeing equal rights for women would be repealed:
- I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. (1 Timothy 12:10)
- Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. (Ephesians 5:22)
- A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. (1 Timothy 2:11)
- But if…and evidence of the girl’s virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her father’s house and there her townsman shall stone her to death. (Deuteronomy 22:20-21)
Military conflicts would be fought without regard to the Geneva Convention–as the Israelites did:
- “You are my battle-ax and sword,” says the Lord. “With you I will shatter nations and destroy many kingdoms. With you I will shatter armies, destroying the horse and rider, the chariot and charioteer. With you I will shatter men and women, old people and children, young men and maidens. With you I will shatter shepherds and flocks, farmers and oxen, captains and rulers.” (Jeremiah 51:20-23)
Depiction of the taking of Jericho by the Israelites
- Samuel said to Saul, “This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’” (1 Samuel 15, 1-3)

Yes, a nation governed by “a theology based on the Bible” would be one far different from the United States we know today.
Since a number of Old Testament practices might lend themselves to easy abuse, this is not a matter to be taken lightly.

A WARNING FROM AESOP
In Bureaucracy, History, Military, Politics, Social commentary on September 9, 2015 at 12:03 amTens of thousands of Syrians are pouring into Europe, seeking escape from their fellow Islamics in Syria’s ongoing civil war.
And European countries–such as Germany, Italy and Greece–are throwing open their doors in welcome.
In the United States, 14 Democratic Senators are demanding that President Barack Obama admit at least 70,000 refugees.
That’s in addition to the 1,500 that America has taken in since the civil war began in 2011.
Prompting this is the international outcry over images of a three-year-old boy’s body lying face down on the surf on a Turkish beach.
The boy, Aylan Kurdi, his older brother Galip, five, and mother died while trying to reach Europe.
Amidst all this hand-wringing, it’s well to remember the famous Aesop’s fable about a snake and a farmer.
One snowy day, a farmer found a poisonous snake lying on a road, stiff and frozen with cold. Feeling sorry for the creature, he picked it up and placed it inside his coat in hopes of reviving it.
The snake, revived by the warmth, bit the farmer, mortally wounding him.
“Oh,” cried the farmer, “I should have known better than to pity a scoundrel.”
Decades from now, the descendants of these well-meaning Europeans may well have cause to remember that fable.
In his 2009 book, Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat, Dr. Peter Hammond explored the impact of an increasing Muslim population non-Islamic societies.

And he vividly outlined the increasingly disruptive changes that can be expected to occur within those societies.
According to Hammond, Islam is not a religion nor a cult. It’s a complete system of religious, legal, political, ecnomic and military components.
The religious component encompasses all the others.
“Islamization” occurs when there are enough Muslims in a country to agitate for their “religious rights.”
Here’s how it works.
(Percentages are from CIA: The World Fact Book, 2015.)
So long as the Muslim population remains at or under 2%, they will act as a peaceful minority and pose no threat to non-Muslims. As in:
United States – Muslims 0.6%
China – Muslims 1.8%
Italy – Muslims 1.5%
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from jails and street gangs. This is happening in:
Australia – Muslim 2.2%
Canada – Muslim 3.2%
Denmark – Muslim 2%
Germany – Muslim 3.7%
Norway – Muslim 2.3%
United Kingdom – Muslim 4.4%
Spain – Muslim 4%
Thailand – Muslim 4.9%
From 5% of the population on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their numbers. They push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims.
They increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves–along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:
France – Muslim 7.9%
(On January 7, 2015, the worst terrorist act in France since World War II occurred when three Islamics slaughtered 12 people at a satirical magazine that had published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammed.
Guyana – Muslim 7.2%
Philippines – 5%
Sweden – Muslim 5%
Switzerland – 4.9%
The Netherlands – Muslim 4.9%
Trinidad and Tobago – Muslim 5%
At 5% of the population they work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia (Islamic law). The ultimate goal of Islamics is to establish Sharia law over the entire world–enforcing it on Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
When islamics approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of protest about their conditions.
Any non-Muslim action that offends their interpretation of Islam results in uprisings and threats, such as in Ansterdam, with opposition to Muhammed cartoons and films about Islam.
Such tensions are seen daily, especially in such countries as:
India – Muslim 14.2%
Israel – Muslim 17.5%
Kenya – Muslim 11.1%
Russia – Muslim 15%
After Islamics reach 20% of the population nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, formations of jihad militias, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, as in:
Ethopia – Muslim 33.9%
At 40% of the population, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
Bosnia – Muslim 40%
Chad – Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon – Muslim 54.7%
From 60% on, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-Muslims (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing, use of Sharia law as a weapon and Jizya, the tqax placed on “infidels,” as in:
Albania – Muslim 56.7%
Malaysia – Muslim 61.3%
Qater – Muslim 77.5%
Sudan – Muslim 70%
United Arab Emirates – Muslim 76%
After Islamics comprise 80% of the population, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some state-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the “infidels” and move toward 100% Islamic. This is happening in:
Bangladesh – Muslim 89.5%
Egypt – Muslim 90%
Gaza – Muslim 99%
Indonesia – Muslim 87.2%
Iran – Muslim 99.4%
Iraq – Muslim 99%
Jordan – Muslim 97.2%
Morocco – Muslim 99%
Pakistan – Muslim 96.4%
Syria – Muslim 87%
Tajikistan – Muslim 90%
Turkey – Muslim 99.8%
When Islamics reach 100% of the population, “Dar-es-Salaam”–“The Islamic House of Peace”–reigns.
Everybody is a Muslim, the madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
Afghanistan – Muslim 99%
Saudi Arabia – Muslim 100%
Somalia – Muslim 100%
Yemen – Muslim 99.1%
Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, because the most radical Muslim states wage war on more moderate ones.
Among the reasons for this: The centuries-old ethnic conflicts between majority Sunni and minority Shiite Muslims, now on lethal display in Iraq and Syria.

Europeans are now offering asylum to tens of thousands of Islamics–whose religion directly conflicts with Western values. And Americans are being urged to do the same.
Before doing so, these Western nations should ask themselves two vital questions:
One: If “The Islamic House of Peace” reigns when Muslims become the majority of a country’s population, why are so many Islamics now fleeing Islamic countries?
Two: What does this presage for the Western, non-Islamic countries they are now flooding into?
