What does this mean...?

            In reading the news, Michelle O’bama wife of Barack O’bama or President O’bama, as she told a group of sisters that her husband the president carries with him a picture of The Blessed Mother in his wallet.  After pondering this, it seems to me to raise questions. 

If the president does indeed carry such a picture and in some twisted perverted way, have a devotion to Our Blessed Mother, how can he support and encourage laws approving abortions wide scale, through laws and tax money.  Which further leads to the question, does Michelle O’bama say such things without thinking?  As it is obvious that neither she nor her husband understand the gravity, of which his actions hold in the eyes of God.  In addition, what is the motivation to which she and her husband take action and/or say things?  Why would she say such a thing, if indeed it were true? Furthermore, why or how could her husband do such?  Because we can never know the authentic truth about this, we can only go by the words of Michelle O’bama.  It seems to be to be a dichotomy that her husband would carry such a picture in his wallet, because his actions and words prove to be anything but in contradiction to what the Blessed Mother is in the eyes of God.

It would seem to me this event sheds further light on the person of Michelle and President O’bama.  If he is truly seeking to do what is right and the best interest for all people and the world not only for the USA, how could he allow and give money to let people take the lives of the unborn, while at the same time carrying a picture of The Blessed Mother.  How can Michelle O’bama know what her husband says is the truth if he does one thing and says another?  I am NOT speaking in terms of politics, as it seems to me to point out that the current president is neither philosophically logical nor morally grounded on anything remotely based upon God and the moral truth.  As it is impossible to know anyone completely and fully and what they are capable of doing and/or saying, it would seem to me this event indicates, neither Michelle or her husband have any kind of moral understanding to which to seek a higher office, let alone lead anyone other than their own family and children.  It would seem to me difficult at best for their children to be able to grasp the ideas of which their father and mother instill.  How can a logical deduction be made about a person that says, I carry a picture of The Blessed Mother in my wallet and devotion to her, while I sign laws and bills to enact wide scale abortions and kill innocent human beings?  This seems to be to indicate a mental disconnect in the mind of Michelle and her husband.  How can a person looking at him as president understand what he says or means.  I am NOT questioning that he may love The Blessed Mother in his own way, while not understanding, as he is not Catholic.  I am pointing out the question, on what basis does he and Michelle live out their marriage?  Does she know and accept that he says one thing and does another?  If that is the case, how does she know who he really is?  How does this reflect on the fact that the people in this country voted him into office, to lead and guide the nation.  When President O’bama looks at himself in the mirror what does he see and feel?  I pose to Michelle O’bama, “Did you really mean to tell the sisters about the picture, if so is it true based upon his actions or words that he has such a devotion to the Blessed Mother?”  In addition, Michelle, “If you did not mean to tell the sisters, did you say it to gain popularity for your husband, in the eyes of the sisters while feeling pressure at that moment to say something?  Did you before saying this, know your husband carries such a picture and devotion but not question his motives, while he allows, promotes wide scale abortion throughout the United States and the world?”  

It would seem to me that neither he nor Michelle understand, what it means to lead, guide and nurture his family.  What do they say, in ten years, when someone in his family asks him to defend his views on abortion while carrying a picture of the Blessed Mother?  While many people are going to argue this is neither important nor relevant to politics, to which I would assert, this goes much deeper, it gives us further insight to how people think and act, while trying to set good examples.  This event seems to show how he, Michelle and human nature think… Which leads me to ask, how is that a world exists and people live their lives saying one thing and doing another, without so much as a second thought, while ignoring the “Objective Truth” because it does not fit their lives? 

I do not doubt that Michelle and President O’bama believe what they are doing is right or moral in some way, while at the same time causing more confusion while they live a dichotomy.  It is not easy to be married and raise children in a culture of death and decay and contributing to the decay, while carrying a picture of The Blessed Mother in your wallet.  This is, at best philosophically absurd and a grave immoral act.

From a conversation several years ago, stated to me, “There is no objective truth.”

If stated objectively as a truth, how one can, assert beyond all doubt to know there is no objective truth?  If a person makes such an assertion, it does not seem to make sense to me, to state objectively, that something does not exist objectively.  I can accept the assertion; they do not know if there is an objective truth, based upon what that person believes to be true.  Hence, if a person believes something to be true it cannot be stated objectively, and/or beyond all doubt or question, that would be “Faith,” defined in www.dictionary.com as “belief that is not based on proof.” 

As created, contingent beings, it is impossible to have complete and full knowledge of all that exists; hence, much of our existence is based upon faith of what exists or thought to exist, without being able to know beyond all doubt.  As in the case with time and love as examples, how can human beings prove time exists, yet we understand it to be a concept universally accepted, trusted and adhered to without thought.  Does it not take faith and trust, to plan our lives, appointments and schedules, based upon the time of day, week or month?  How can we prove what love is or know someone loves us?  These are concepts, which we believe to some degree of certainty but impossible to know beyond all/any doubt and/or be proven scientifically.  Yet we plan and live our lives based upon concepts that cannot be seen or proven, to exist, beyond all doubt.  “Trust” defined in www.dictionary.com as “confident expectation of something; hope.”

Created and contingent, human beings have no choice but to take certain things upon faith and trust.  How can anyone state factually whether something or someone exists, if they do not experience something or someone directly?  Do we simply disregard what we experience from one day to the next, as it is impossible to prove beyond all doubt or question what took place the previous day, week or month?  It would be absurd to disregard history and state, “because, I did not experience something or someone directly, it did not or does not exist.”  We would have to start each day over as if the previous day did not exist or ever happen.  The knowledge that humanity obtains today can only be based upon the knowledge of what past generations obtained and so on, back to the first recorded history.  It is impossible to not use or look at history in order to obtain future knowledge.  Human beings are created and contingent, unable to obtain full and complete knowledge of all that existed, exists and will exist, regardless of the knowledge we obtain in our lifetime.  We take it on faith, things that cannot be proven beyond all doubt, what has been handed down to us through history, is true, or at least to some degree true, but it is impossible to know beyond all doubt that it is true.  Human beings simply do not nor cannot exist throughout time to witness firsthand all that has existed, exists now and will exist.  Based upon this, it would make sense to assert, because they have not seen or witnessed something directly, they “believe” something to be true, although not knowing beyond all doubt. 

If we accept, ideas and concepts that exist in our minds without being able to use scientific methods to prove their existence, such as “time” and “love,” it seems to me, weak at best to assert beyond all doubt, God does not exist, because it cannot be scientifically proven.  Does it makes logical sense to state, if something or someone cannot be seen or experienced directly, and cannot be scientifically proven, hence that something or someone does not exist?  It would make more sense to me, to assert, not knowing if God exists nor care, and choose to live their life accordingly, rather than to assert God does not exist and knowing it because God cannot be seen, heard, touched or scientifically proven to exist.
