This was sent to me in an email. I checked and found that this was written by Rev. Austin Miles.
It is interesting information as to what was going on at the Democrat National Convention that didn't make the news - or was withheld from the news.

Dems Welcome Muslims, Prohibit Christian Hospitality in Charlotte!
by Rev. Austin Miles
CHARLOTTE,North Carolina (9/11/12) When the DNC [Democrat National Convention] came to Charlotte, area churches, 100 of them, offered hospitality, not knowing now much the Dems hate God and would actually boo God at the convention. They had no idea how that hatred would be directed at them and their churches.
The Sunday before the DNC, over 9000 people had come together to pray for the convention. Then, wanting to extend hospitality to the visitors to their city, 56 of the churches set out to “Adopt-a-Delegation.”
They put together gift baskets featuring Carolina Pralines and a letter welcoming them to the city and offering assistance in transportation, childcare or spiritual matters.
According to writer, Todd Starnes, The DNC banned the churches from distributing the gift baskets to delegates because, DNC said, the congregations hold values that are contrary to the party platform. Read that carefully.
David Benham, one of the organizers of the outreach said, “We were just trying to display Southern hospitality.” DNC officials, however, conveyed to city leaders that the Christians would not be allowed to present their gift baskets.
Even the Charlotte Mayor’s office jumped in to tell the churches not to participate, saying that their views on women’s rights are contrary to the platform. That’s right….the same platform that booed God later.
Benham then asked if they could send welcome letters to the delegates. Again, the DNC refused, because, they said, “The churches hold pro-life values.”
The baskets did not contain a single political or pro-life message. They just wanted to give them regional candles and a welcome letter. The DNC refused to return numerous phone calls seeking comment.
But it gets worse. When a gathering of 200 Muslims showed up to pray for the convention, the Dems welcomed them with open arms and the liberal media gave extensive national coverage.
It is ironic that this day, in the shadow of that Islamic prayer event, we commemorate the greatest tragedy in American History, when Muslims attacked America on September 11, 2001, brutally killing thousands.of innocent people.
Muslims who publicly state their hatred of our country with fierce determination to kill us all and put America under Sharia Law, are welcomed by the Democratic Party while Christians are pushed out of sight like criminals because they respect life and hold family values.
These are the same democrats who want you to vote them into office to direct the United States of America and every life from beginning to end. It is obvious that we must not let this happen.
Our thanks to Rev. Ed Berkey (retired) who alerted us to this story.
-- end of story.
As I said, this was sent to me by a close friend who wanted me to hear about some of what was going on at the Democrat National Convention behind the scenes. It is enlightening, but I'm sorry to say not very surprising.
That was a group who wanted any mention of God taken out of their party's platform.
A party platform is the list of the actions which a political party, individual candidate, or other organization supports so that they can appeal to the general public for the purpose of having thier candidates voted into political office.
It is the list of policies and beliefs. It usually takes the form of a list of things that they support, or are opposition to. It's too bad the many Democrats who came up with their platform didn't want to observe God in the smallest way.
While I'm sure the Democrats want as many Christian votes as they can get, it appears that Christians are not welcome in their party. From what they tell us, we seem to believe in things that they don't believe in or stand for.
And yes, that's really too bad.
