I had never heard of Madalyn Murray O'Hair until I saw one of many tiktoks of her. The fact she was known as the most hated woman says so much about Christianity's iron hold on the world.

[dragoneyes618]

"During NASA’s early years, it had not enacted any policies regarding religious observances in space. The issue first arose when John P. Donnelley, Assistant Administrator for Public Affairs at the Johnson Space Center, received an angry letter complaining that astronauts’ religious expression in space had been suppressed because of a lawsuit filed by Madalyn Murray O’Hair, the founder of American Atheists. She is perhaps best known for Murray v. Curlett, her successful challenge to the government’s policy of mandatory prayers and Bible in the Baltimore public schools. Many people do not know that O’Hair was also a leading Holocaust denier; for example, in a notorious article in American Atheist magazine, she argued that Auschwitz was little more than a labor camp, that less than 1.5 million Jews had been murdered in the Holocaust, and that Central Europe was substantially cleared of Jews because of emigration."

THOMAS O. PAINE, ET AL. (brackets)

CIVIL ACTION NO. A-69-CA-109

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an action brought by Madalyn Murray O'Hair,

Richard F. O'Hair and the Society of Separationists, Inc., against

Thomas O. Paine, individually and as Administrator of the National

Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The plaintiffs are

seeking an order enjoining NASA from (1) doing any act whatsoever

which abridges the plaintiffs' freedom from religion or establishes

Christianity as the official religion of the United States, and

(2) enforcing any policy or regulation which has been heretofore

promulgated and which has such above effect. The plaintiffs

also seek a temporary restraining order enjoining the defendants'

"from doing any act whatsoever which restricts or abridges plaintiffs'

freedom from religion and specifically enjoining NASA and its

administrator and and personnel from further directing or permitting

religious activities, or ceremonies and especially the reading

of the sectarian Christian religion Bible and from prayer reci-

tation in space and in relation to all future space flight activity."

Jurisdication of the case is founded upon 28 U.S.C. 1346 (a) (2).

Upon request of the plaintiffs, a three-judge court was

convened in accordance with Jackson v. Choate, (name is underlined) 404 F.2d 910

(5 Cir., 1968). That Court, consisting of the United States Circuit

Judge Homer Thornberry, United States District Judge Adrian A. Spears,

and United States District Judge Jack Roberts, determined that this

case was not properly a three-judge matter. Sardino v. Federal Re-

serve Bank of New York, 361 F.2d 106 (2 Cir. 1966); Pennsylvania

Public Utility Commission v. Pennsylvania Railroad Co., 383 U.S. 281

(1965). The case was accordingly remanded to Judge Roberts of

decision.

The various plaintiffs are atheists, deists, and believers

in the complete separation of church and state. They have asserted

the right to bring suit in two separate grounds: (1) taxpayer status; [complete document and transcription at link]

The Witness Of Madalyn Murray O’Hair Thursday, January 2, 2025 Children of Wrath The famous atheist Madalyn Murray O'Hair, while speaking at a college in Ohio, denigrated all clergy and ministers, ridiculed believers, mocked those who trusted in prayer, and labeled all people of faith as 'stupid.' At the end of the meeting, a girl spoke up. With a soft, compassionate voice she said, "Ms. O'Hair, I am so happy you came to speak to all of us tonight. We thank you for showing all of us what an atheist is. Now, in turn, we must ever be grateful for your visit because now and forever we have been strengthened in our Christian beliefs by listening to you tonight. We really feel sorry for you. I thank you because I know you have strengthened my faith…" Ms. O'Hair seemed at a loss for words. Atheism might testify against God but atheists only testify to Him. They show us that without God, there's no real hope, assurance, comfort, trust, purpose, meaning and love. So, how much more than that must you who affirm God, all the more boldly bear Him witness. Let your light shine and be bold. God lives, and even atheists bear Him witness.

Today's Mission Today, boldly bear witness that God is and who He is in your life.

Galatians 5:22 King James Version 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.

Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way. Among those who belong to Christ, everything connected with getting our own

HAVE A BLESSED DAY AND WEEKEND!

A cura para um coração duro

David Wilkerson (1931-2011)

25 de dezembro de 2024

“Aquele que muitas vezes é repreendido e endurece a cerviz, será destruído de repente, e isso sem remédio” (Provérbios 29:1, NVI).

A palavra hebraica para reprovado neste versículo se refere ao ensino corretivo. Sem remédio significa “sem cura, sem qualquer possibilidade de libertação”. Este versículo primeiro nos diz que a dureza do coração vem como resultado de rejeitar avisos repetidos e deixar de lado toda a verdade. 

Em segundo lugar, nos diz que tal dureza se torna impossível de curar com o tempo. Então, quem são as pessoas que mais frequentemente ouvem esses avisos? Eles são supostamente cristãos, aqueles que se sentam na casa de Deus a cada semana ouvindo sermões de reprovação. 

O que exatamente é um coração duro? É um coração determinado a resistir à obediência à Palavra de Deus, impossível de mexer e imune às convicções e advertências do Espírito Santo. 

A verdade trágica é que, apesar de ouvir mensagens ardentes enviadas do céu, multidões de cristãos não praticam o que ouvem. Eles se recusam a permitir a entrada de Deus em certas áreas de suas vidas, e a dureza começa a se instalar à medida que continuam a ouvir sem atender. 

No entanto, há muitos pecadores cuja dureza de coração foi curada. No início, eles amaldiçoaram Cristo e sacudiram um punho irado na face de Deus, mas seus corações derreteram quando ouviram o evangelho e sentiram a repreensão pura e amorosa do Espírito Santo. Eles se arrependeram e se voltaram para Jesus. 

A vida do filho de Madalyn Murray O'Hair ilustra isso. Ele foi criado provavelmente na casa mais ateísta da América, e mais tarde trabalhou para sua mãe, lutando contra Deus e a religião. Quando ele ouviu o evangelho, ele foi gloriosamente salvo e se tornou um ministro, pregando Cristo em vez de amaldiçoá-lo. A dureza desse homem era curável porque quando ele se sentava sob sermões de reprovação, ele os aceitava. 

Na minha experiência, os corações mais duros e incuráveis ​​são frequentemente curados ao alcance da pregação ungida pelo Espírito Santo. Tais corações não derretem em igrejas frias, mortas e formais, onde o evangelho foi corrompido por gerações. Não, ele sempre é encontrado onde uma palavra pura é pregada do púlpito e onde o arrependimento começa nos bancos.

However Charles Whitman resounded in my head bringing me back to that carnage of horror blared on the news. I was an 18 year old teenager, at that time, just out of high school, of drinking legal age in NYC then, ready for college, I went back to my estranged country of birth, the Dominican of Republic.

Professing being an atheist myself, I make no bones about it. I think everyone is entitled to his or her believe. I find no need to express my condition as a human being, which is obvious. Anything beyond the rational is irrational, unless proven otherwise. I found the above documentary very interesting.

The above discussion is very interesting but totally useless mumbo-jumbo.

King Belial

I asked Belial to show me a type of person that is a good example of his character. He showed me a vision of Madalyn Murray O'Hair.

Why her of all people, especially considering she is also an Atheist? Because once I watched some videos of her, I saw that yes, she is a good example of Belial's traits;

I -- Standing up for yourself, even when out numbered or up against powerful authority figures.

II -- Courage to speak your truth, no matter how unpopular you are.

III -- Intelligently debating people who are out to discredit you, but because of your intelligence you win.

IV -- Being who you are publicly, boldly, without fear, when who you are is hated by many.

V -- Being not only a seeker of justice, but actively pursuing it for yourself and others.

VI -- Being a champion for the underdog or the unpopular people/group, giving a voice to those without a voice.

Here are some of the best Madalyn moments:

-/~

It is a dehumanizing, sadistic religion, that this Christianity is, oooooooh it turns me cold.

-- What do you have against God?

First --

-- Why does He bug you?

Well, first off, here isn't any. And second off, the idea which you invented has caused more misery to every human being --

-- Listen

-- in all ages of history than any other single idea.

-- Listen, Mad ...

You're going to spend your whole life preparing to meet the Lord :D

Boy, you folks are crazy as hell!

-- That's why we have these Wake Up America Crusades, and tryin to get us to do more for

What's this? "Wake Up America Crusades"? :D

-- It's just a little name that we have, trying to get God's people to Wake Up and put the Lord first place because --

But you know if America wakes up, what America'll do is kick Christianity out and, uh... all of you preachers with it.

-- Your grief is not assuaged, as would be the religionists who believe there is another place, where happiness will again be --

Oh that's a big lollypop!

-- I know you don't believe that, but --

I think that we, we must look at them and we don't say, we never say, they've passed over or they're gone or they're reborn or they have uh, uh been transported or anything else, people are dead.

-- I want to ask Miss O'Hara what is she going to do with Jesus, who is blessed to return to Earth.

-- When Jesus comes back, you mean?

-- What is she going to do with Jesus?

Ahhahaha! I'm sorry, but I think you're just as funny as can-be!

-- Now don't say that...

Now if a little green man with purple horns would knock on my door and say 'I'm from Mars and I just descended', I'd believe him. But a shaft of light coming down and Jesus Christ digging up all these old dead bodies and resurrecting them when we're overpopulated already, this just leaves me cold. You know what, I -- I'd, first off I wouldn't do anything because it's never going to happen. I'll never be faced with the problem.

-- And that's why we're --

\

-- And I had a personal experience with the Lord, and the dangers of --

Indigestion.

/

Of course, the bible is a bestial book. And it's full of rape and slaughter and incest.

-- Yes, I believe the Bible. I believe Who Wrote It Wrote It. I believe God inspired it, the Holy Spirit Breathed Upon Its Pen, and I Believe It Because I want to. Okay.

Boy, you folks're crazy as hell!

-- Have you ever been tempted, to turn to God and pray, or pray to Him, but didn't, because you are an athiest?

Never. Never. Because in the ordinary course of events, people meet things, like I have met Death, there was Death in my family. I myself was supposed to have died on several occasions, etc. but I always turn to a good doctor, or I turn to something like this. Something that, uh, where assistance can be had, really. Because prayer is only deluding of oneself, that's all. Nothing else.

I'm 74 years old now. I'm diabetic. And I'm in really rotten health. And I hang onto life for there is nothing else that I can do, but hang-on and fight. And I'll die, too.

-- Okay so, you think she's going to Hell, then?

-- I don't know. I would like to have faith and believe that she could be saved. I say this, if she is ever saved

I don't want to be saved! I'm not interested in your ideas!

-- Do you believe you're a sinner?

No, of course not. I don't believe that anybody's born as a sinner. I believe people are just born, period. And I believe they're born without religion. Religion has to be programmed into them, like ya program it into a machine!

There is no, absolutely no doubt, that Atheism will win, hands down.

-- She seems to be quite upset that Rev. Harris and people like him want to share their views, and share what they have with others, and she says that they should keep it a quiet and a private thing, but why isn't she keeping her so-called religion a quiet and private thing, and why is she making such a big deal out of her's --

Because -- what the Christians do is coercive. They ask for the strength of government behind them, and they ask for the strength of tax funds behind them and special privileges behind them.

We don't go into a court room and say you absolutely will say some sort of prayer to Madalyn Murray before you testify, or you will testify on the book that's written by Madalyn Murray. We don't do that.

But you do that when the persons go in, with your domination of the culture, to use your book as a criteria, to say a pledge of allegiance with Your God underneath it.

A quote from Madalyn Murray O'Hair, former president of American Atheists, that I think you will all enjoy

Your petitioners are atheists and they define their beliefs as follows. An atheist loves his fellow man instead of god. An atheist believes that heaven is something for which we should work now – here on earth for all men together to enjoy. An atheist believes that he can get no help through prayer but that he must find in himself the inner conviction and strength to meet life, to grapple with it, to subdue it, and enjoy it. An atheist believes that only in a knowledge of himself and a knowledge of his fellow man can he find the understanding that will help to a life of fulfillment. He seeks to know himself and his fellow man rather than to know a god. An atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that a deed must be done instead of a prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanquished, war eliminated. He wants man to understand and love man. He wants an ethical way of life. He believes that we cannot rely on a god or channel action into prayer nor hope for an end of troubles in a hereafter. He believes that we are our brother's keepers and are keepers of our own lives; that we are responsible persons and the job is here and the time is now.
