The "Farrakhan Test"

Salaam (Peace) to all.

As I watched the campaign of Sen. Barack Obama, I felt that eventually this "breath of fresh air" of a Candidate would eventually be given the inevitable test...the "FARRAKHAN" test. My intuition served me rightly.

Then a question came to me...

"Why is it that white people in power, in this country, make Minister Farrakhan the litmus test to determine just how they will deal with any black man who seeks to make advancement in their structure?"

"How come I never hear of a black man being given a Jesse test? ...or a Sharpton test? ...or a Jakes, Dollar or Price test?"

Why a "Farrakhan" test?

What is it about Louis Farrakhan, that white people need to know how black people feel about him ...and require that they "denounce and reject" him before they will admit them into their "hallowed halls" of power?

What has Minister Louis Farrakhan done to white people, that they despise him so?

He has not stolen from anyone.

He has not murdered anyone.

He has not encouraged his followers to commit violence against America.

In fact, he has taught us to be lovers and keepers of Peace.

So...what has Farrakhan done to be so despised and rejected by the ruling class of this nation, that black people's attitudes about him matter to them so much?

Consider the following:

JOHN 8
37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.


Som'm to think about...
