Generation Zero: The Abyss

Generation Zero - Teaser 1 from Citizens United on Vimeo.

The documentary Generation Zero, which has been screened at recent Tea Party and CPAC Conferences throughout the U.S. has been the talk of the town. Generation Zero reveals how the current economic crisis is not a failure of capitalism, but a failure of culture. Generation Zero explores the cultural roots of the global financial meltdown - beginning with the narcissism of the 1960's, spreading like a virus through the self-indulgent 90's, and exploding across the world in the present economic cataclysm.

Generation Zero goes beneath the shallow media headlines and talking head sound bites to get to the source of today's economic nightmare. With a cutting edge style and haunting imagery, this must see documentary will change everything you thought you knew about Wall Street and Washington.

Featuring experts, authors, and pundits from across the political spectrum, Generation Zero exposes the little told story of how the mindset of the baby boomers sowed the seeds of economic disaster that will be reaped by coming generations.

Frontliner's Comments: It seems to me that the current powers that be are intent on seeing the financial collapse of America. For the first time in our history, America is in debt to our enemies; namely China. And it seems that America is now in a position that it may not be able to get out of with China. All China has to do to keep America in debt is keep a low currency and their imports at low cost; our stocks and bonds go down the drain and America is bought out and owned by a foreign power. Currently our national debt is 12 trillion dollars..., the average human can't even count that high in a lifetime. It seems to me that (in the words of James Madison) that there is a silent encroachment afoot in our nation.

The Abomination of Relevancy: Pastor Ed Young U.B.U.

Apparently Pastor Ed Young isn't concerned with what people might think of him and his antics. His abomination of relevancy knows no bounds. Is this the way that Messiah would want us to reach the lost for the sake of Salvation? Are we to abolish the work of the Holy Spirit and replace it with relevancy? And should believers idly stand by and do nothing? When I saw this video, I was reminded of a quote I read from William Booth (the founder of Salvation Army):

“In answer to your inquiry, I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.”

Mind you, this quote from William Booth was made in 1901..., prophetic, don't you think?

I heard a preacher say not too long; "If the Holy Spirit left this world, I'm afraid that most congregations would not notice; and they would simply go on as if nothing happened."

Now that's pretty scary.

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires" - 2 Timothy 4:3.

Elton John Says Jesus Was Gay

FOXNEWS: Elton John gave an interview to Parade magazine in which he described his cocaine use and past treatment of young men, and said he thought that Jesus Christ was a homosexual.

"I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems," John told the Sunday supplement. "On the cross, he forgave the people who crucified him. Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving. I don't know what makes people so cruel. Try being a gay woman in the Middle East -- you're as good as dead."

The openly gay star, whose duet with Lady Gaga was one of the highlights of this year's Grammy Awards, said he often chose young men to be with in the past, but it never worked out.

"I'd always choose someone younger. I wanted to smother them with love. I'd take them around the world, try to educate them. One after another they got a Cartier watch, a Versace outfit, maybe a sports car," he said. "I did this repeatedly. In six months they were bored and hated my guts because I'd taken their lives and self-worth away. I hadn't intended to."

John is now married to his longtime partner, David Furnish.

John also said his addiction to cocaine had been all consuming. "For some people a gram of cocaine can last a month. Not me," he said. "I have to do the lot, and then I want more. At the end of the day, all it led to was heartache."

John said his experience with drugs is one of the life experiences that led to his current philanthropic efforts.

"I set up my foundation because I wanted to make amends for the years I was a drug addict," hd said. "People with HIV are still stigmatized. The infection rates are going up. People are dying. The political response is appalling. The sadness of it, the waste."

Frontliner's Comment: I pray that this man get saved before he has to answer to the Almighty G-d concerning this blasphemy..., Yeshua HaMasiach is L-RD!

Televangelist Benny Hinn and Wife to Divorce

ORANGE, Calif. (AP) — The wife of televangelist Benny Hinn has filed for divorce from the high-profile pastor, whose reputation as an advocate of prosperity gospel has attracted millions of followers and criticism from lawmakers and watchdog groups over his lavish lifestyle.

Suzanne Hinn filed the papers in Orange County Superior Court on Feb. 1, citing irreconcilable differences, after more than 30 years of marriage. The papers note the two separated on Jan. 26 and that Hinn has been living in Dana Point, a wealthy coastal community in southern Orange County.

"Pastor Benny Hinn and his immediate family were shocked and saddened to learn of this news without any previous notice," Benny Hinn Ministries said Thursday in a statement. "Although Pastor Hinn has faithfully endeavored to bring healing to their relationship, those efforts failed and were met with the petition for divorce that was filed without notice."

Hinn is one of the best known advocates of the prosperity gospel, which teaches that Christians who are right with God will be rewarded with wealth and health in this lifetime.

His TV broadcasts on the Trinity Broadcast Network, a Pentecostal broadcasting juggernaut, and other TV networks are seen by millions of people around the world nearly every day. He travels the globe in his ministry's plane, named Dove One, holding events he calls "Miracle Crusades" that include spiritual healings.

Hinn has never fully publicly disclosed how he spends the money he raises, but his vast ministry is believed to be a multimillion-dollar operation. There was no mention of finances in the court filing, which listed three recent Southern California addresses for the family.

Over the years, Hinn has been the target of intense criticism from fellow Christians and watchdog groups who call his teachings false and accuse him of raising money only to enrich himself.

He is one of six televangelists under investigation by Sen. Charles Grassley, the Iowa Republican on the Senate Banking Committee, over whether he complied with IRS rules for nonprofits. Hinn has said on his Web site that external auditors ensure his compliance with IRS regulations and that in 2008, 88 percent of the money he collected was spent on ministry.

Benny Hinn Ministries is based in Grapevine, Texas, and operates a church and television studio in Aliso Viejo in California's Orange County, according to its Web site.

Sorrell Trope, the attorney with the law firm representing Suzanne Hinn, did not return a call for comment. A woman at his office said the firm does not comment on divorce filings without the client's approval.

J. Lee Grady, contributing editor of Charisma, a news magazine on the Pentecostal community, said Hinn's divorce is the latest in a string of high-profile ministry divorces and moral failures among the Pentecostal leaders, beginning with Ted Haggard's fall from grace in 2006.

Haggard, who is married and has five children, admitted to receiving a massage from a male prostitute and buying drugs from him, but denied allegations he paid the man for sex.

Grady said in an e-mail Thursday that Hinn's followers will want an explanation for the divorce because of the high profile the couple had.

"It will be devastating to the people who have supported Benny Hinn's evangelistic work around the world," Grady said.

"Obviously because their ministry has been very public, they will need to issue a statement to their supporters to explain how this happened," he said.

Focus on the Family Super Bowl Commercial with Tim Tebow

The Focus on the Family Super Bowl commercials featuring Tim Tebow and his mother Pam has been the subject of national attention for weeks. Before anybody even SAW the thing, it was decried as a propaganda piece of an ultra-right fringe organization....I don't know about you, but I wasn't exactly offended by that 30 second spot.

Neo-Pagans Get Worship Circle at Air Force Academy

The following is a story from Foxnews.com about the Air Force Academy and its allowance of a Neo-Pagan Worship Circle; that it set up with government funds (our tax dollars). This is the same Air Force Academy that in 2005 banned Chaplains from praying in Jesus' Name. Well..., tolerance can only go so far (except for the Christian).

From Foxnews.com:
Witches, Druids and pagans rejoice! The Air Force Academy in Colorado is about to recognize its first Wiccan prayer circle, a Stonehenge on the Rockies that will serve as an outdoor place of worship for the academy's neo-pagans.

Wiccan cadets and officers on the Colorado Springs base have been convening for over a decade, but the school will officially dedicate a newly built circle of stones on about March 10, putting the outdoor sanctuary on an equal footing with the Protestant, Catholic, Jewish and Buddhist chapels on the base.

"When I first arrived here, Earth-centered cadets didn't have anywhere to call home," said Sgt. Robert Longcrier, the lay leader of the neo-pagan groups on base.

"Now, they meet every Monday night, they get to go on retreats, and they have a stone circle."

Academy officials had no tally of the number of Wiccan cadets at the school of 4,500, but said they had been angling to set up a proper space since the academic year began.

"That's one of the newer groups," said John Van Winkle, a spokesman for the academy. "They've had a worship circle on base for some time and we're looking to get them an official one."

The Air Force recognizes several distinct forms of neo-paganism, including Dianic Wicca, Seax Wicca, Gardnerian Wicca, shamanism and Druidism, according to Pagan groups that track the information.

Since a 2004 survey of cadets on the base revealed dozens of instances of harassment and intolerance, superintendent Michael Gould has made religious tolerance a priority.

Yet Van Winkle, the academy spokesman, said he could not confirm whether the school's superintendent or senior staff would attend the dedication ceremony.

"(We) haven't gotten that far yet: First we have to get a date, and then once we get a date for the dedication ceremony we'll see who's going to be available for it," he told FoxNews.com.

"Once we get a date that's going to be the real driving force for who's going to attend."
