ISRAELIS SEE JESUS IN ‘MAN OF STEEL’
You’ve Read The News - Now Understand It
Tsvi Sadan, Israel Today — The new film Man of Steel directed by Zack Snyder generated an interesting article in the Israeli news portal Ynet with equally interesting responses. The article’s title, “It’s a Bird? It’s Superman? No, it’s Jesus!,” tells the conclusion from the outset.The movie is a metaphorical gospel with Superman in the roled of “the father of Christianity,” according to the article. This is no exaggeration considering the fact that Warner Bros Studios released sermon notes for pastors. One such note reads: “How might the story of Superman awaken our passion for the greatest hero who ever lived and died and rose again?” There is also Snyder’s (not Jewish by the way) CNN interview where he candidly said the Superman comics themselves were metaphors on Jesus.
The Ynet article begins by describing the first scene in the movie, in which Ayelet Zurer, an Israeli, that is Jewish, actress, experiences what we consider a natural birth – which is a very unnatural thing on Krypton – to Kal-El, who is none other than Jesus. Just before Kal-El is sent to Earth, his father, Jor-El, tells his mother that their son “will be like a god to them,” that is, to the people on Earth whom Superman, who is Kal-El, was sent to save from the coming destruction.
And if this is not enough, Ynet notes that the film is saturated with philosophical references reminiscent of Jesus’ teaching, such as love toward all men and altruism. There is also the scene of Superman floating on the sea in crucified body posture.
The Ynet articles concludes, “Now that the first gospel from the up and coming trilogy is behind us … after 33-year-old Superman (same age as Jesus when he was crucified) survived the 'Via Dolorosa' that General Zod prepared for him, in the next film he may appear resurrected at the Daily Planet, in the muff, nerdy, bespectacled image of Clark Kent … Let’s see Snyder explains to us how is it possible that this is not Jewish.”
Several of the readers responded in kind. One reader amusingly wrote: “those behind the original story of Jesus were also Jewish.” Another reader facetiously questioned: “I loved the movie. What now? Should I become a Christian?” And another: “Jews always tried to change the world by spiritual influence. There is much in common between the invention of Jesus (or at least the stories about him) and the invention of Superman, Facebook, Psychoanalysis...”
In light of the known problematic Jewish attitude toward the Gospel, these remarks are at the same time both funny and touching as they seem to reveal how isolated Israelis feel today, so much so that they are willing to claim relationship to a comic book hero who may or may not represent Jesus. » Full Article

Christian Information Radio
Host: Jim Schneider
The Crosstalk Radio Talk Show is heard each weekday on over 90 radio outlets across America and worldwide on the Internet. Crosstalk covers the issues that affect our world, our nation, our families and the Christian church from a perspective centered in the Word of God. Whether we discuss the economy, the political scene, the continuing moral collapse of our nation, legislation that affects the family, or the state of evangelicalism, our authority is found in the unchanging standard of the Holy Scriptures. Veteran co-hosts Dr. Vic Eliason and Jim Schneider have worked as a team for over 20 years to bring solid information to the body of Christ.Guest: » Daniel Weber, The Voice of America 50+
Air Date: August 6, 2013
Show Description:
The Pew Research Center has reported that in January of 2011 the oldest Baby Boomers turned 65. Every day from that point on for the next 19 years, about 10,000 more Americans will be turning 65 each day. By 2030, when all Baby Boomers will have turned 65, 18% of the nation's population will be at least that age. Further, the Bureau of Justice Statistics has reported that at least 10% of them will become victims of elder abuse.
Joining Jim to discuss this topic was Daniel Weber. Daniel is the founder of AMAC, the Association of Mature American Citizens. He is a defender of free enterprise and is working to retain our private health care system and prevent the government from turning it into socialized medicine.
Elder Abuse can take many forms. The worst case scenario is physical abuse. In addition there's psychological abuse, financial abuse and the most common form of abuse known as neglect.
It's estimated that up to 10% of the elderly are suffering abuse of one kind or another. Unless it's an outrageous example, these cases tend to go unreported because the news media likes to pay attention to that which is sensational. This makes elder abuse the “dirty little secret” of America.
Warning signs of elder abuse include frequent arguments between your loved one and the caregivers or perhaps you notice a personality change. Obvious physical signs like bruises or unexplained injuries can signal abuse as well as drug overdoses, broken eyeglasses or indications that your loved one has been restrained.
What makes an older adult prone to abuse? Who generally are the abusers? What can you do if you suspect elder abuse? How can you go about choosing a suitable nursing home? How can you protect elderly loved ones from telephone scams? What are the concerns regarding Obamacare as it relates to the elderly? Answers to these and other questions are yours when you review this important edition of Crosstalk.

Lyrics
'Twas down in Mississippi not so long ago
When a young boy from Chicago town
Stepped through a Southern door
This boy's dreadful tragedy
I can still remember well
The color of his skin was black
And his name was Emmett Till
Some men, they dragged him to a barn
And there they beat him up
They said they had a reason
But I can't remember what
They tortured him and did some things
Too evil to repeat
There were screaming sounds inside the barn
There was laughing sounds out on the street
Then they rolled his body down a gulf
Amidst a bloody red rain
And they threw him in the waters wide
To cease his screaming pain
The reason that they killed him there
And I'm sure, it ain't no lie
Was just for the fun of killin' him
And to watch him slowly die
And then to stop the United States
Of yelling for a trial
Two brothers, they confessed
That they had killed poor Emmett Till
But on the jury there were men
Who helped the brothers commit this awful crime
And so this trial was a mockery
But nobody there seemed to mind
I saw the morning papers
But I could not bear to see
To see smiling brothers
Walkin' down the courthouse stairs
For the jury found them innocent
And the brothers, they went free
While Emmett's body floats the foam
Of a Jim Crow southern sea
If you can't speak out against this kind of thing
A crime that's so unjust
Your eyes are filled with dead men's dirt
Your mind is filled with dust
Your arms and legs
They must be in shackles and chains
And your blood, it must refuse to flow
For you let this human race
Fall down so God-awful low
This song is just a reminder
To remind your fellow man
That this kind of thing still lives today
In that ghost-robed Ku Klux Klan
But if all of us folks that thinks alike
If we gave all we could give
We could make this great land of ours
A greater place to live

LOOK WHO TRAINED NEW UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA REGENT
Muslim Brotherhood Front
Prepping Youth To ‘Islamize U.S.’
Prepping Youth To ‘Islamize U.S.’
Art Moore, WND — A front for the movement that aims to turn the U.S. into an Islamic state is touting its role in the groundbreaking appointment of an “observant Muslim” to the University of California system’s board of regents.As student regent, Sadia Saifuddin will represent more than 234,000 students across the state’s system.
The California chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations noted Saifuddin, a senior majoring in social welfare at Cal Berkeley, participated in CAIR’s Muslim Youth Leadership Program in 2008. She also served as an adviser for this year’s participants.
CAIR, according to FBI wiretap evidence from a 1993 meeting of Muslim Brotherhood leaders and activists in Philadelphia, was formed to burnish the image of Muslims in the U.S. in support of the Brotherhood’s stated aim of “destroying Western civilization from within” and replacing it with Islamic rule.
As a student senator, Saifuddin co-sponsored a non-binding resolution that called on the University of California system to divest $14 million from companies that do business in Israel, reported the independent local news site Berkeleyside.
Saifuddin explained she did not want “one cent of my money to go toward fueling the occupation of my brothers and sisters.” The resolution passed by an 11-9 vote.
Critics have called the resolution shortsighted and anti-Semitic and have called into question her ability to represent all students, Berkeleyside reported.
Saifuddin will be an observer on the board during the upcoming school year before becoming a voting member the following year.
In an interview with Berkeleyside, she insisted she is not anti-Semitic.
“I did my job in representing my community in that situation,” she said. “Divestment is not something I will be pursuing as student regent. My politics on that particular matter don’t inform my new position. There are more pressing issues, like financial aid reform and campus climate.”
In the interview, she was asked a pointed question about whether her faith is compatible with the regent position.
Berkeleyside: Qur’an 5:51 orders Muslims to “not befriend the Christians and the Jews.” How do you balance the demands of your religion with the demands of your position to represent students of all backgrounds?
Saifuddin: My best friend is Catholic; I visit her church and she comes to my mosque. Religion is not a contender in our relationship. I think people cherry-pick a lot of things in the Muslim faith, and this emphasizes Islamophobia. If I looked in the Bible or Torah, I could find quotes that say the same thing. We need to look hard at people who are saying Muslims are intolerant, because it’s the people who are saying these things who are intolerant. My faith is one that preaches love and peace, forgiveness and mercy – these are the ideals that I’ve chosen to embody.
While CAIR touts itself as a Muslim civil rights group, federal prosecutors in 2007 named CAIR an unindicted co-conspirator in a plot to fund Hamas, and more than a dozen CAIR leaders have been charged or convicted of terrorism-related crimes.
CAIR’s California branch said its annual Muslim Youth Leadership Program is held in Sacramento to equip high school students with an understanding of the legislative process and train them in civic engagement and media advocacy.
Since 2004, MYLP has trained more than 350 young American Muslims.
In this year’s program, the executive director of CAIR’s Minnesota chapter, Lori Soraya, of CAIR-Minnesota, talked about how to be an effective organizer to impact the American Muslim community and the broader society.
An interactive workshop was held on community organizing, and the students took part in a mock legislature session at the California state Capitol. » Full Article

Washington Creates The Purple Heart
On this day in 1782, in Newburgh, New York, General George Washington, the commander in chief of the Continental Army, creates the "Badge for Military Merit," a decoration consisting of a purple, heart-shaped piece of silk, edged with a narrow binding of silver, with the word Merit stitched across the face in silver. The badge was to be presented to soldiers for "any singularly meritorious action" and permitted its wearer to pass guards and sentinels without challenge. The honoree's name and regiment were also to be inscribed in a "Book of Merit."
[...]
In addition to aspects of Washington's original design, the new Purple Heart also displays a bust of Washington and his coat of arms. The Order of the Purple Heart, the oldest American military decoration for military merit, is awarded to members of the U.S. armed forces who have been killed or wounded in action against an enemy. It is also awarded to soldiers who have suffered maltreatment as prisoners of war. » Full Article
