When a candidate\u2019s convictions are diametrically opposed to the most fundamental principles of truth and righteousness, God-fearing people need to know and will want to know. This is especially so when the candidate is seeking the office of the President of the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It appears that Mr. Walter Mondale will likely be one of the candidates (perhaps a strong one) in the Presidential election this fall. His connections with and loyalties to the Godless and devilish doctrines of Humanism need to be known.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 First, notice what Mr. Mondale says about his Humanist background and connections:<\/span><\/p>\n Although I have never joined a humanist society, I think I am a member by inheritance. My preacher father was a humanist\u2014in Minnesota they call them \u201cfarm laborites\u2019\u2014and I grew up on a very rich diet of humanism from him. All our family has been deeply influenced by this tradition including my brother, Lester, a Unitarian minister, ethical culture leader and chairman of the Fellowship of Religious Humanists. (Quoted from To Seek a Human World, <\/em>Pemberton Publishing Co., 1971.)<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It should also be noticed that the Lester Mondale referred to in the quotation above was a signer of the Humanist Manifesto I and II.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Just what do Humanists advocate?<\/span><\/p>\n These principles (which are but samples), explain why the leadership of the women\u2019s rights groups are so dangerous in their demands\u2014most of them are Humanists. This also explains why Walter Mondale promised in a recent speech, aired on theToday Show <\/em>on April 2, to \u201c\u2026do all in my power to help the cause of all Americans, regardless of \u2026sexual orientation\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Our opposition is not to the man personally nor to the party he represents, per se. Our concern is for the principles he espouses. Do we want an atheistic Humanist (with all that is implied) as the Chief Executive of our great nation?<\/span><\/p>\n [Note:<\/strong> I wrote this article for, and it was published in The Edifier, <\/em>weekly bulletin of Pearl Street Church of Christ, Denton, TX, April 26, 1984, of which I was editor.]<\/span><\/p>\n Attribution:<\/strong> From thescripturecache.com<\/em>; Dub McClish, owner and administrator.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Views: 0[Note: This MS is available in larger font on our Brief Articles page.] PLEASE NOTE: This article was written prior to the Presidential Election of 1984. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is surely a legitimate concern of Christians to be aware of and concerned with the convictions…<\/p>\n\n
