Unfortunately, the valiant and noble spirit of Jesus Christ no longer resides in the heart of some American Christians. They are now cheerleaders for the Military Industrial Complex.
Tragically, America suffered the loss of 3,000 human beings on 9/11/2001. Since then 5,000 more Americans have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan in the name of Fighting Terrorism by occupying Foreign Soil and spreading Democracy via torture, rape, and murder at the end of an American Machine Gun. Please remember that over 1 million Iraqis have died since our Quagmire for Freedom/Invasion of Iraq http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/iraq
The Mainstream Media has been complicit with the Corrupt Federal Government, Homeland Insecurity, and the Military Industrial Complex by painting heroic vignettes of fallen soldiers depicted with a sorrowful Classical Music backdrop/picture of the fallen American Soldier/computer generated flowing American Flag Background. This could be a genuine and somber memorial to the life of the now dead American Soldier, but is more than likely the next recruiting tool to enrage/entice more misguided young men and women into enlisting.
Mixed into Mainstream Media Programming is a generous helping of WWII style propaganda, not against the Japanese, but this time vilifying Muslims.
As FAUX news and other networks spread disinformation, fabricate stories, and suppress the truth about 9/11 and the costs of Endless Wars, the Christian Community sheepishly bleat and go along to get along.
Christianity emphasizes care for the poor, looking after widows, and loving your enemy. Those verses seem to have been discarded and traded for a Blood for Oil style Eucharist/Communion.
The Truth Movement is growing and there are many Christians who are rejecting the current Tyrannical Agenda of the Federal Reserve, Federal Government, and Wicked Military Industrial Complex.
This article is pieced together to draw attention to disconnect between modern day Christianity beliefs and actions, not to cast a blanket of blame towards Christians, nor to ridicule them.
Christianity should and could be a great ally to the Truth/Liberty Movement if recent false flag events were objectively reevaluated and Christians decided to take a loving stand for the Truth as Jesus did many times despite ridicule, arrest, and eventual death.
The Christian Community must choose a side.
Do you want Endless Wars, A Police State, and your wife and daughter to be molested by goons at the Airport in the name of fighting Terrorism? (ROMANS 13)
Or will you become a Civil Disobedient and adhere to the Spirit of Liberty and hunger for Objective Truth as did Jesus Christ, Martin Luther King Jr, and Henry David Thoreau? (ACTS 5:29)
"Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!" -Acts 5:29
OR
"Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God" -Romans 13:1
I'm no Biblical Scholar, but I'm pretty sure Jesus took the Act 5:29 approach...

Cleansing the Temple:
"He (Jesus) overturned the tables of the moneychangers and the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. And as he taught them , he said,"Is it not written: My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of robbers" -Excerpt from Mark 11 15-19
"Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business. When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables. And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make My Father’s house a house of merchandise!” –John 2:13-16
More on the Moneychangers and the Temple Tax:
"Being a Jew in Jesus' day was an expensive proposition. First there was the Temple tax, which was required of every Jew every year at Passover. The tax was the equivalent of two days wages. But bringing your money was not enough. The kicker was, the tax had to be paid in Temple money. The Temple had its own currency, and another entire day's wage was charged to convert the money...thus the moneychangers.
But the issues didn't stop there. Worshipers at the Temple needed to bring a sacrifice, and the sacrifice needed to be without blemish...perfect. If your animal had any defect at all, it was not acceptable. Temple workers were there to decide whether your animal was without blemish, and if the one you brought with you was found to be defective, guess what? The Temple just happened to have some perfect ones for sale. You can guess how many got through without having to buy another Temple animal.
When instructions had been given in Scripture about sacrifices, mercy was shown to the poor. Those of means were required to bring a sheep or a goat or an ox...a substantial sacrifice. But the poor were allowed to bring much less...just a pair of doves...and still be acceptable. When Jesus is born and his family shows up at the Temple to make a sacrifice, they bring doves...a sign that Jesus came from a poor family. The Gospel accounts of the rampage in the Temple make a point of mentioning that Jesus went after the sellers of doves. Why?
A pair of doves could be bought outside Temple gates for about one day's wage. But, somehow, those outside doves were never quite perfect, at least according to the temple workers making the decisions. So the poor lost what they had spent on the outside doves and were forced to purchase ones from inside the Temple. How much were THOSE doves? About 21 days' wages. And, of course, they couldn't buy the doves with their own money. It had to be converted into Temple currency...for another day's wage."

Healing on the Sabbath
Picking grain on the Sabbath
Jesus performed miracles of healing on the Sabbath, some Pharisees accused Him of breaking the Sabbath (Matthew 12:10; Mark 3:2, John 9:14–16).
