I have been labeled so many things, being labeled a conspiracist for what I am about to say will simply be another in the extensive list of monikers that have been ascribed.  I have reached a place in my life where although I care what people think, I realize it means little in the scheme of things.  Truth is far more important than someone’s opinion of me.  Sounding the alarm when there is danger is far more important than trying to protect my image.  That does not mean I seek to be purposefully caustic.  I do not! 

I like to be liked and enjoy feeling wanted and even needed, but when I see my nation heading down the slippery slope of destruction, how can I be silent?  If you disagree with my observations or my warnings, that is your prerogative and right.  If you wish to write your own blog dissecting my assertions, that is within your right, so go for it. 

However, if you are genuinely concerned about America and desire to keep our Constitutional Republic the Free Republic it was established and designed to be, I ask that you consider my observations. 

When I speak of ‘Wagging the Dog’ or ‘The Tail Wagging the Dog’ I am referring to the sleight of hand used by politicians to divert our attention away from what is really happening or the true objective.  The phrase usually refers to something important or powerful being controlled by something less so.  It has been a tactic used by politicians and presidents to distract from and hid the truth.  I believe that we are possibly witnessing a massive ‘Wag the Dog’ in the traumas of today’s America.

We have some profoundly serious and real problems in America!  That is an understatement!  Those problems include economic issues that are on the brink of being catastrophic.  We have energy issues that are dangerously close to rendering people incapable of working, traveling, or conducting most of life’s business in person.  We have moral issues that are shredding any semblance of sanity and/or safety for our children.  We have violence issues that are so horrific that many hearts are failing them for fear of what they see happening. 

Those are horrific, dangerous, disruptive, and difficult, but are they the real issues or the real objective?  I suggest that, while they are, in themselves, each terrible and need to be addressed, they might only be hiding the true agenda from public sight.  If I am right, then we will see more and more of the kinds of things we have been seeing and each will transcend the previous making us more willing to embrace governmental control.  Could it be that is the objective?

Gun violence is beyond terrible and when it involves innocent and defenseless children it is doubly horrific.  The politicization of mass shootings inspiring a call for a total ban on firearms, disseminating false information, and fanning the flames of paranoia is, I believe, only a tool or a pathway to an objective.  The demand for immediate action that is not thought out and surpasses reason is drawing out those with any measure of celebrity making them experts.  Doing something due to a lack of understanding of the real problem only exacerbates the problem.

I saw that Coach K of Duke University made the statement that the desire to own an automatic weapon is disgusting.  He went on to expose his ignorance on the issue and the firearms being used calling them ‘automatic’ when in fact both the pistols and rifles used have been ‘semi-automatic’ not ‘automatic.’  We have a ban on automatic weapons, and it requires a very expensive and difficult to obtain a license to own one.  Coach, I respect your right to an opinion and preference but before you open your mouth, please know what you are talking about.

Sadly, this is not relegated to guns it is spreading to all sectors of our society and all the issues we are facing.  Those who are devotees of Climate Change and Green Energy seldom speak with facts regarding fossil fuels but out of fear, and paranoia, and become rabid in their attacks on anyone disagreeing.  We need fossil fuel, and it is the most readily available and reliable source of energy we have.  We can develop alternative energy, but the indefensible position that if we do not do so immediately, we will destroy the planet is false.

Those who demand the right to abort a baby regardless of the stage of development in the womb insist that failure to allow unlimited abortion is an assault on women and will cost lives.  Seriously?  Cost lives?  What about the sixty-three plus million babies that have lost their lives due to abortion?  I know that is a hot topic that will get me banned from social media, but that entity in the mother’s womb is a baby and if we value life, how do we devalue that life in favor of convenience and choice?

The Bible makes a powerful statement in John 8:32 – “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”  The absolute best defense against error regardless of what we are speaking.  Truth is factually accurate and remains constant and absolute.  The best method of detecting counterfeit money is to become unshakably familiar with the real.  When you know the truth, you find detecting the false reasonably easy.

However, the master deceiver of all times and those schooled in his tactics sometimes present distortions that make it difficult to discern the truth.  I am convinced that ignorance of our true history in America, real science, and the Bible make us easy targets for deception.  

I want to always be compassionate and as understanding as possible.  I want to heal the hurts of others whenever possible.  I want to love everyone as unconditionally as possible.  But, if I attempt to demonstrate love, compassion, and understanding by allowing that which is dangerous and harmful to become the acceptable norm, I am neither loving, compassionate, nor understanding.  If I do that then I am participating in the abuse that they bring.

Governmentally we are, too often, played like pawns on a chessboard.  We become useful tools to advance their objective.  If they can distract us, ‘Wag the Dog’ and cause our fear and sense of guilt to reach the point of surrender and plea for them to take control, we lose freedom. 

I believe that many, if not most or all, of the issues prevalent in today’s world, are either manipulations, ‘Wag the Dog’ ploy or examples of ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ tactic.  If we believe in Freedom, we must pay attention.  If we believe in God, we must engage in intercessory prayer.  If we believe in inalienable rights, we must demand that all politicians regardless of political affiliation honor, protect, and defend the Constitution and the Rule of Law.  Failure to do so will produce a result none but those in power will like.

God bless you and God bless America!

I have contended for a very long time that the reason we are in the position and condition we are in today is because of apathy.  Well, that is part of the problem the most significant is our abandonment of moral sanity and God, but apathy is a prime reason.  I do not mean apathy on the part of politicians or the political ruling class of elitists, but the apathy demonstrated and manifested by the general public and too much of the Christian Church.  You may discount the last part or all of what I have just stated, but if you examine what is happening in today’s America and much of the world, you must admit, that something is terribly wrong.

We are being invaded and are experiencing a war inside the borders of the United States of America.  It is not a declared war by Congress, the White House, or the Media but it is a war, nonetheless.  People are being killed, bullied, harassed, and endangered and it is not getting better.  The policies of the current administration piled on the heap of previous bad policies of presidential administrations and Congresses are bearing fruit.  The fruit is bad, and the results are bad.  I believe that most of it could have been averted had it not been for widespread apathy.

I am appalled at the increasing number of deaths as a result of this invasion.  I am stunned at how much territory is being ceded to the invaders directly or indirectly.  I am horrified by the increasing number of rapes, executions, and a level of fear that is being instilled in the hearts of our citizens.  There were and are things we could and can do, but apathy allows it to continue while complaining but not becoming engaged enough to bring it to a halt.

We have at least two million illegals entering the United States each year.  If that is extrapolated over the next decade, we will have over twenty million more illegals inside our borders.  How many will that bring the total to?  Estimates by government entities are that we have about eleven million here now and that would bring us to about twenty million.  I believe some of the more honest evaluations that we probably have upwards of forty million now and will have 60-80 million in ten years. 

Couple that with the desire, design, and plan of the followers of globalism and toxic liberalism to give them the right to vote as Citizens of the World our elections will forever be moot.  Those seeking to transform America will have won and even if we awaken from our apathy, it will be too late to recover.  Those who desire constitutionalism and conservatism, or republicanism will be deemed threats to society, and efforts to reeducate or eliminate us will be forthcoming.  Is that paranoia?  I sincerely hope so and hope that I am wrong, but the statistical data available suggest that my concerns are not unfounded.

We have endured the cries to ‘defund the police’ and the Leftists have embraced the idea that the police are systemically racists and not worthy of our support.  Are there bad eggs in police departments across this land?  Of course, but there are bad actors in every segment of society.  By and large, the police do a good job fulfilling the thankless task of keeping the peace and protecting us. 

In 2020 when the ‘defund the police’ craze reached its zenith murders of Black people (mostly by other Black people) increased by 32%.  That is appalling and should send chills down every spine.  If it happened in that community can any of us feel safe?  The number of carjackings and thefts has skyrocketed.  The number of home invasions has escalated as weak-willed DAs have positioned themselves on the side of the offenders.  Rapes, murders, muggings, assaults, and other violent crimes are increasing exponentially due to bad rhetoric and policies. 

Apathy has created a situation where few criminals are arrested and brought to justice.  The statistical data is that 54% of reported violent crimes are unsolved.  Unfortunately, many of them are charged with lesser crimes and released with or without bail and continue their violent acts of terror. 

This type of activity can be corrected, but not without a major attitude adjustment on the part of Politicians, District Attorneys, Media, Ministers, and the Public.  We have to become willing to back those tasked with enforcing our laws and lose our fear of retaliation and report what we see and know.  We have to demand from our politicians that they secure our borders allowing only those who follow the legal pathway of immigration are allowed to come and remain.  We must demand from our politicians that they follow the Constitution and the Rule of Law.  We must evict any that will not do so.

We have shrugged our shoulders at the dangers of ‘Woke-ism’ and ‘Political Correctness.’  Those following the agenda of the followers of those ideologies desire power and control.  Hate is driving a wedge between Americans making civil discourse impossible.  Hate is irrational and Anathema to Freedom. 

Apathy has placed millions in a vacuum where they are afraid of offending the Woke crowd.  Apathy has allowed politicians to seek to make any rejection of their toxic diatribe and rhetoric a crime.  We have elevated the feelings of the few to a higher status than the inalienable rights of all.  If Freedom of Speech is not extended to everyone it effectively becomes a weapon and destroys our Liberties guaranteed by the Constitution and granted by God.

Apathy has allowed Big Tech to engage in illegal censorship of anyone disagreeing with the liberal agenda.  Too many Big Businesses are drinking the Woke Kool-Aid, Hollywood has long been in their corner and education has been grooming generations to become the standard-bearers of that ideology.  Apathy allowed this to transpire. 

I have been branded with so many derogatory monikers, I stopped counting.  There are those within those who claim to be Christians who deem me evil, misguided, mistaken and deceived.  I cannot be silent when I see the imminent danger that is upon us.  I cannot seek to isolate myself in a cocoon of selfishness.  I have disregarded my own personal safety to speak out and will continue to do so as long as I have breath.  I believe in Freedom for Everyone!

America, we must not allow the apathy that has gripped our nation for decades to continue. We must rise up and determine that we will do all we can for posterity (our children and grandchildren included) to give them the Constitutional Republic our Founding Fathers labored so valiantly for.  If you are a believer in the Bible and the God of the Bible, I urge you to seek God for guidance and begin interceding for America and the world.  It matters not what political party those seeking to control are associated with, they are a threat to our Freedom.

God bless you and God bless America! 

There is so much rhetoric, paranoia, fearmongering, and misinformation regarding the possibility of Roe v Wade being overturned.  The truth is that none of the many-faceted fears being projected are even on the radar.  One Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is married to a white woman so stop the insanity that the Republicans want to end all interracial marriages and the myriad of other distortions being projected.  This is not a war on women it is an effort to follow the Constitutional guidelines and return the issue to the individual states. 

I am not a proponent of abortion for many reasons and the chief two being murder is wrong and my faith resists and rejects it.  Neither of those will carry any weight with the pro-choice crowd.  The reason for their rejection is a misunderstanding of the bible and life or rejection of the biblical directive and their insistence that that being in the womb is not a life and therefore nothing more than an unwanted growth.  The callousness of that and ignorance of true science is astounding. 

Sadly, many people form opinions and call them convictions based on emotions or how they feel.  I need more than my feelings to guide my life.  If I did everything, I felt like doing at the moment I felt like it, I would be a dangerous person.  I seek to know what true science says on the matter of that being in the womb that is growing and developing.  I also, seek to know what the Bible says about the matter.  Therefore, I endeavor to use critical thinking, deductive reasoning, and logic in the formation of my opinion and conviction. 

I find it interesting to research what the Jewish people thought about abortion in the ages past.  The Bible’s original language of Hebrew and Aramaic makes connecting with the Hebrew people’s historic view valuable.  It does not make them infallible, but God’s Word is.  In Judaism, there is strong importance placed on pro-creation, based on the blessings found in Genesis 1:28 that we “should be fruitful and multiply.”  That is only possible in a union between a male and female or man and woman. 

They did not believe that sex was limited to procreation but also for pleasure and the Bible speaks to that issue in passages such as Exodus 21:10. The apostle Paul also addressed it in the New Testament.  God designed sex to be beautiful but only in the confines of marriage.  You may disagree and that is your prerogative.  It does not mean you are right, but you have the choice to believe and embrace what you choose.  I seek to be guided by the directives of God and that is validated in true science, especially in the issue of abortion.

I heard someone argue that overturning Roe v Wade would force a woman carrying a dead child in her womb to deliver the dead child full term.  That is beyond ludicrous because if the doctors determined that the baby in the womb was dead it would not be abortion, per se, it would be a needed surgical procedure to relieve the woman of the danger of that dead entity in her body.  A living child in the womb regardless of the stage of development demands protection. 

I sometimes wonder how people who are rabidly pro-choice can believe their easily refuted and unscientific rhetoric and arguments.  The idea that the fetus (baby) is nothing more than a lump of cells growing inside the woman’s womb is easily defeated.  The scientific data is readily available to inform us that that so-called lump of cells, at conception, has a unique DNA, unlike or not exactly like any other living organism on the planet.  The exception would be identical twins. 

When that argument is debunked, they turn to rape and incest and justifiable reasons to abort that life in the womb.  As bad as those are and they are bad, they amount to an extremely small percentage of abortions each year.  At what point is it justifiable to blame that baby that resulted from either of those events?  If you cannot bear the thought of raising that child, then give the child up for adoption where someone who has no such bias can give them the love, nurture, and affection needed to help them develop into a contributing member of society.  They (the baby in the womb) are a creation of God, and no human has the right to take their life.

I heard and read the argument of pro-life advocate Stephanie Gray Connors as she debunked the violinist argument and the kidney argument used by pro-choice or pro-abortion advocates.  She debated philosophy professor Andrew Sneddon who made a well-phrased argument for abortion. 

She said that the Holy Spirit whispered to her and said, “Stephanie, I made the uterus for a different purpose than the kidney.”  When her turn came, she said, “Professor Sneddon makes a very compelling argument until we ask a simple question: what is the nature and purpose of the kidney versus the nature and purpose of the uterus?”  She continued, “Because when we ask and answer that question, we come to see why a parent should not be legally obligated to give one but actually obligated to give the other.”

She unraveled her revelation saying, “The kidney exists in my body, for my body.  The uterus exists in my body every single month getting ready for someone else’s body.  Every month my uterine lining is thickening in great expectation for the implantation of the next generation.  Therefore, you could say the uterus is unique from all other body parts in that it exists more for my offspring than for me, and they can therefore claim a right to that in a way the preborn or born could not claim a right to your kidney.”

The effort of the Democrats is to pass a bill that would be signed by the President making abortion the law.  That bill is diabolical and would force Christian doctors to perform abortions in violation of their religious convictions.  If the doctors failed to comply, they could be fined, imprisoned, and lose their licenses.  This bill known as the ‘Abortion for All Act’ is a direct assault on Christianity and seeks to expand abortion far beyond the current authorization levels. 

The revealed examples of body part harvesting from aborted babies by Planned Parenthood and the more recent barbaric experiments conducted by the University of Pittsburg Medical Center and Magee-Women’s Hospital are horrifying.  It has been revealed that of the thirty-one studies reviewed, one in five did not obtain fetal tissue from the Pitt Biospecimen Core as reported.  Those tissues were obtained from a commercial tissue supplier, Advance Bioscience Resources (ABR). 

Does that name sound familiar?  It should because it is the commercial tissue supplier who was exposed for trafficking baby body parts from Planned Parenthood facilities.  That organization became Planned Parenthood’s scapegoat when they were first caught selling baby body parts in 2015.

I find it amazing that even Joe Biden in 2015 believed that life begins at conception.  He said, “I’m prepared to accept that the moment of conception is a human life and being.”  He went on to say, “But I’m not prepared to say that to other God-fearing, non-God-fearing people, that have a different view.”  Well, Mr. President, I am prepared to say that to anyone regardless of their religious or moral views.  Life begins at conception.  I believe the Bible’s assertion that God knew our parts before they were formed in the womb, and we are all creations of God regardless of how that pregnancy occurred.

You may not accept my view.  You may find me reprehensible and reject me and my views.  That is your choice.  We all have the right to believe what we believe, but the final judge of all things is God whether it is accepted or not.  As a Christian, I cannot and do not support abortion.  I believe that Life, every life is valuable to God and the defenseless lives in the womb are especially precious and deserving of our protection.

God bless you and God bless America!

If my use of biblical references causes you heartburn, then stop reading now, because I will be using the Bible, my faith, history, and facts in an attempt to articulate my position on America.  I believe that we are a nation that has, at least governmentally, turned its back on God and our founding principles. 

Our first president and the father of our country made a powerful and even prophetic statement in his farewell address in 1796.  He said, “The propitious smiles of heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of right and order which Heaven itself has ordained…Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.  In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens.” 

He also said, “…reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principles.  It is substantially true that virtue and morality is a necessary spring of popular government.”

The Psalmist said in Psalms 33:12 – “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, whom He has chosen as His heritage!?”  The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 1:18 – “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.” 

The current condition of our American government is reflective of a people or nation that has abandoned all moral and biblical truth.  Truth for the modernists, progressives, liberals, and globalists following political correctness and fundamental transformation is only what they deem to be the truth.  Sadly, we have a society that no longer believes in absolute truth.  Absolute truth that is found in the Bible, in God, in moral rightness is anathema to many today.  As Joe Biden said, “We choose truth over facts.”

Taking that thought or statement to its ultimate we have to ask, “Is not truth verified by facts?”  Also, “Would not truth and facts be harmonious?”  If you have the facts, you are able to arrive at the truth.  We can only conclude from his statement that this was another of his gaffes if we are super charitable.  However, it appears that he and those of his ilk believe that ‘truth’ is whatever they define it, and facts are inconvenient hindrances to that presentation.  Therefore, they reject any facts that do not defend their position.  Facts are facts and they do not lie.

I find it less than a surprise that former President Barack Obama and wannabe Hillary Clinton would contend that the 1^st Amendment and Freedom of Speech do not include social media.  They want more regulation and censorship of what they call misinformation and/or disinformation.  However, what they believe is legitimate is not harmonious with factual evidence.  If they don’t like it, it paints them in a bad light, or hinders their cause and agenda, it is Bad and must be Banned.  That is not the actions of Free Constitutional Governments but Dictatorships, Oligarchies, and Tyrannies.

The one-time mouthpiece of the Left David Horowitz has been deemed by some as an American prophet.  He once had a regular column in the online magazine Salon.  He consolidated those articles into a book entitled Hating Whitey and Other Progressive Causes.  That was in 1999 and it reads like it could have been released today.  In that sense, it is not only insightful but prophetic.  Thus, identifying him as such.

Today Salon is probably better identified with celebrating pedophilia and hating conservatives and constitutional ideas.  Horowitz was there when he was still an accepted member of the Left.  He was a part of the New Left when it was new.  In his book, he dismantles his ‘ex-comrades’ of the Clinton era and attempts to set the record straight with details, facts, and surgical precision.  For whatever reason, David Horowitz had an enlightenment and realized the fallaciousness and danger of the agenda of the movement he was a part of.  They want him silenced because, in their words, he is disseminating misinformation and disinformation. 

Imagine Hillary Clinton, attempting to lecture anyone on disinformation.  She tweeted, “For too long, tech platforms have amplified disinformation and extremism with no accountability. The EU is poised to do something about it. I urge our transatlantic allies to push the Digital Services Act across the finish line and bolster global democracy before it’s too late.”  Wow!  The purveyor of the fallacious lies of Russian collusion, Benghazi, and so many other things wanted to lecture anyone on morality or truth. 

We now have valid information that the ‘Spygate Researchers’ did the work for former Special Counsel Robert Mueller as he investigated the Russian Collusion hoax.  Imagine that!  The purveyors and architects of the hoax were providing the research for the ‘unbiased’ Special Counsel.  Yes, that was sarcasm. 

Special Counsel John Durham’s team asked lead Georgia Tech researcher Manos Antonakakis, “Do you believe that DARPA should be instructing you to investigate the origins of a hacker (Guccifer_2.0) that hacked a political entity (DNC)?”  He said, “Yes.”  Not surprisingly Georgia Tech gave Robert Mueller a large file of Trump-related material that mysteriously was lost.  The fact that those who were participants in the hoax were participating in the investigation if not criminal, is beyond any semblance of unbiased investigation searching for facts and truth.

Joe Biden’s nominee for the 11^th circuit court, Nancy Abudu, was nominated to replace the newly confirmed Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Jackson Brown.  Who is she?  Senator Chuck Grassley wrote to committee chair Senator Dick Durban a blunt revelation about Abudu.

He said, “Abudu works for a disreputable organization that has no business being a feeder for positions to any judicial office — not even of a traffic court — let alone the second-highest court system in the United States. She is a political activist, not a jurist, and is unfit to serve at the federal appellate level.”

The actions of Abudu and the SPLC’s smear tactics against the Family Research Council almost resulted in a mass murder at their headquarters.  When a jurist participates in disinformation and fans the flames of hate they should be given no consideration for a position on any bench of any court.  The SPLC has a decades-long history of managerial corruption and unscrupulous actions.  The first conviction under the post-9/11 District of Columbia terrorism statute revealed that the convicted terrorist was shown to have been motivated by the SPLC’s ‘hate group’ designation of the FRC.  When I heard that he had nominated her for the Circuit Court, I thought Seriously? Wow!

America, we have banned God and the Bible from all things government, education, and largely the public square.  We have targeted the 1^st Amendment protected Freedom of Religion which includes conscience and attempted to force Christians to abandon their faith to accommodate government edicts that violate their faith.  We have allowed various government bureaucracies, agencies, the intelligence community, and the justice department to become Gestapo-type enforcers of the government edicts.  Believers are, in many ways, being treated as the Nazis treated the Jews. 

We can salvage America?  It will not be easy and will be costly.  I believe that America was founded and won her independence by the providence of God.  We were, and our founders sought to have her identified as a Christian nation.  We developed our laws on the foundation of God’s Word and encouraged the consciousness of God as Creator and benefactor.  We have abandoned that and now treat many of God’s precepts as outdated and archaic.  We have, it would seem, had our consciences seared.  I say that in light of the tens of millions of babies slaughtered in abortion.

It is not important what anyone thinks of me, I believe in God, I love America, and I stand for Truth and Right.  I stand for Faith, Family, and Freedom and not just my truth or view.  I will defend everyone’s right to believe and speak what they believe.  I believe in the ideal that was presented by the founders and the Republic they established.  America, we have been and can be a beacon to the world and a powerful instrument in God’s hands if we return to Him and His Truth. 

God bless you and God bless America!

I am going to speak my mind and stand on my core convictions regardless of what others think.  I am not trying to be offensive or caustic, but I believe there comes a time when you need to exercise that God-given ability to think and speak when you see danger.  Each of us has the right to believe what we believe and to express it peaceably and openly, as do I.  I am unashamed to declare that I am a Christian, a Vietnam veteran, a Patriot, a Conservative, and a lover of Liberty. 

I believe in the truth presented in the Declaration of Independence that “ALL people are created…”  I also believe that “ALL people are created equal” not necessarily in talent or ability, but equal in value in the eyes of God.  I believe that “ALL people have the inalienable right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” 

The Bible says, in Psalm 14:1 – “The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.  They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds…”  That is my view of those in today’s toxic society and government who appear to be at war with biblical principles and traditional moral standards.  The Woke adherents, the politically correct mentality, and those who seek to subvert God’s order of creation appear to meet the definition of Psalm 14:1. 

We live in a world filled with Cultural Marxists, neo-Leninists, and toxic liberals that seem to desire that any of us who reject their ideological rhetoric regarding gender must be silenced and eliminated.  I am convinced that if they could, we would be immediately arrested and sent to internment camps for ‘enlightenment,’ as they describe it.  The fact that those of us who believe the Bible’s definition of gender is anathema to them.  Even some who name the name of Christ are riding that train with them. 

I can only imagine the scene when those who seek to subvert God’s creation order and dare to tell God and everyone that He blew it in creation of some people.  I can only imagine telling God, the Creator of all things that He blew it when he created a man who feels trapped in a woman’s body or vice versa.  The old saying, “You mess with a bull, and you get a horn in the rear” comes to mind.  How could anyone be so brazen as to tell God He failed?   The only explanation is they do not believe in God and are among those described in Psalm 14:1.

I saw an article that in my home state of Texas there was an elementary school in Leon Springs that was presented with a class on segregation.  The students were divided according to hair color and one group was told they were privileged, leaving the others to clean up after them.  The blonde-haired children were branded as stupid and showed them autopsy pictures of Black girls murdered in a church bombing.  That is not solving any racial problems but driving a wedge rather than building a bridge. 

Our first president George Washington’s declaration is apropos, “Since we ought to be persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven, can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rule of order and right, which Heaven itself has ordained.”  America, we are in grave danger of disregarding the eternal rule of order and right.  Our abandonment of God and even the outright challenge of moral rightness is placing us in a dangerous place.

We have become those who have exchanged the truth for a lie as Romans 1:25 warns, “because they have traded the truth about God for a lie and worshipped the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen.”   

We need to read that coupled with Romans 1:24 – “Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.”  Then, Romans 1:26-27 – “For this reason, God gave them over to dishonorable passions.  For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.”

Hate me if you please and call me whatever you wish, but if God made them that way, and then calls their actions abominable and identifies them as being among those reserved for eternal destruction, He is an Ogre!  He would be a monster!  God made the human race ‘male and female’ and designed them for a union of oneness and to procreate.  Same-sex marriages do not have that capacity.  God did not make you a man trapped in a woman’s body, or a woman trapped in a man’s body.  He made you male or female and in that, you were created in His Image!

Let me step out even farther on the ledge and place myself at risk from the social media tyrants and those who are blatantly challenging God’s existence and authority.  I want to give you some information that is readily available to all who care to examine it.  The publisher of eighth-grade textbooks said, “We’re not trying to make anybody [homosexual]; we’re not saying there’s an agenda; we’re not saying that these people are better than other people; what we’re saying is this is another group of Americans, and they face certain prejudices.”  That sounds benign and possibly even noble, but it is a distortion of epic proportions.

That claim has been debunked and their agenda exposed by their own writings.  Let me offer an excerpt from part one of the “homosexual manifesto” (First published in Gay Community News, February 15-21, 1987, and has been placed in the Congressional Record.  The author is Michael Swift.  See http://freedomoutpost.org/intolerance-homsexual-agenda/

He said, “Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable and de riguer, and we will succeed because we are adept at setting styles.  We will sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies.  We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, your youth groups.  Your sons will be recast in our image.”  Wait?  Are we not to be in the Image of God and God is not a homosexual?

Joe Biden’s Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s self-identified husband Chasten Buttigieg has been recorded leading children in a reworded version of our nation’s Pledge of Allegiance.  He transformed it into a homosexual pledge of allegiance.  That is an example of their devoted attempt to modify the behavior of our children and lead them into a lifestyle that God’s word states are abhorrent and a direct threat to the home and family. 

I am ashamed to acknowledge that in my home state of Texas a gender identity clinic has been performing double mastectomies on the healthy breasts of 12-year-old, for the purpose of pediatric gender transition.  That is more than disturbing, it is horrifying.  Then, you add to the list the blatant slaughter of over sixty-two million babies since Roe v. Wade and I believe we are dangerously near the brink of the abyss of judgment.

America, how long can we continue “messing with the bull” before we get the proverbial horn.  God will not wink at sin forever.  God will not allow the destructive modification of His order forever.  I fear that this nation, my beloved America, is on the brink of destruction because we failed to heed the warning of our first president.  We expect God’s propitious smiles as we slap Him in the face. 

There is hope for America, but only if we return to our moral moorings, reject the fallacious lies that are being presented, and return to God.  Even if you do not believe in God, surely you love freedom and want to protect your children from being manipulated into adopting a lifestyle that is not in their best interest.  Surely, you value Life and Freedom.  You may vehemently disagree with everything I have written.  That is your right.  But I stand with our Founding Fathers and the Bible as I stand for Faith, Family, and Freedom!

God bless you and God bless America!

Today is Memorial Day in America!  The day is designated to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice serving our nation.  I, a Vietnam veteran, and a Christian take immense pride in remembering those who gave their lives for the cause of freedom.  Some of them volunteered for military service and others were conscripted and pressed into service, but the link is THEY SERVED!  They loved America and Freedom enough to place their lives on the line.  For their service and sacrifice, I say THANK YOU and I SALUTE YOU!

Failing to remember is a tragedy, but in our modern society, we have become more focused on self than service.  It makes me sad to realize that Memorial Day, a Day of Remembrance and Gratitude, has become nothing more than a long weekend for many.  I am saddened by the reality that too few appreciate, understand, or value the sacrifices those fallen heroes of the past made.

I realize that many view all war or at least some of the wars we have engaged in as anathema and evil, but those who served did so out of love for the country, family, and freedom.  Those who answered the call of their country, deserve honor and recognition.  They deserve the recognition our World War Veterans received.  It should be remembered that their service protected the right of individuals to live free and vocalize their views, beliefs, and convictions.  I pray that we never let that change.

With respect to the sacrifices of the many who gave their lives in our armed services, I want to share some statistical data.  This data is from one of many sources and I realize that all do not agree with the totals.  I use the ones that seemed most reliable to me.  I do not have the data for the first responders, and other individuals who gave their lives for America and freedom in their service, but I do not forget them.  I say to the fallen, regardless of what service they were providing, THANK YOU! 

CASUALTIES OF WAR…

The data I gleaned included both the numbers of deaths in combat and from disease or other causes.  Some wars did not provide that data so I can offer no report.  It is my view that most of these numbers are low estimates and the real numbers are higher. I cannot prove or verify that but it is what I believe.

Revolutionary War                           Combat – 6,800        Disease – 17,000     

War of 1812                                      Combat – 2,260        Disease – 12,740

Mexican American War 1846         Combat – 1,733        Disease – 11,550

Civil War                                            Combat – 650,000

Indian Wars                                       Combat – 1,000

Spanish American War                   Combat – 385          Disease – 2,000

WW I                                                  Combat – 53,402     Disease – 63,114

WW II                                                 Combat – 998,568   Disease – 348,338

Korean War                                       Combat – 33,739     Disease – 20,617

Vietnam War                                     Combat – 58,479+

Gulf War                                            Combat – 383

Iraq & Afghanistan                          Combat – 5,364        Disease – 1,476

Those numbers indicate that we have lost over two million in war.  Each of those lives was snuffed out too early and their families were robbed of what life might have been, had they lived.  War is horrific and as it has been said, “War is Hell.” 

We also have statistical data from our own government that 624,000 veterans are dying each year.  Many of those deaths can be tracible to their involvement in war.  The over two million war deaths do not account for the fatalities directly connected to the various conflicts.  There is no reliable statistical data regarding the chemical agents such as Agent Orange from Vietnam or other weapons of destruction used in the wars. 

This does not include the horrific nightmares identified as PTSD, opioid or alcohol addictions resulting from the inability to free the mind of the horrors of war.  We have many walking wounded living in death daily as a result of war. The hell they live in is beyond belief but very real. Their sacrifice must not be forgotten.

I experience both deep sadness and rage when I think of how our government and others have and do treat our veterans.  When I read statistical data regarding expenditures on caring for illegals and giving funds to foreign nations that hate us.  The Bible says, in 1 Timothy 5:8 – “Anyone (that would include a nation) who does not provide for his own (that would include veterans), and especially those of his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.” 

I experience both deep sadness and rage when former military, especially combat veterans, are classified as domestic terrorists and needful of being monitored simply because they served in war and know how to use firearms.  Most of those veterans want to live peacefully and would like to forget the horrors they saw and experienced.  They are willing to serve and protect even those who regard them with contempt.  They love freedom and know the value of our inalienable rights.  They should be saluted and thanked not degraded and viewed with contempt.

On this Memorial Day, I pray that each one will take a moment to reflect on what we have enjoyed in America for almost 2 ½ centuries.  This day is not for those of us who served that is Veteran’s Day in November.  This day is to remember and honor the memories of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and protected freedom.  They deserve to be remembered with dignity and pride.  You may hate war but please do not hate those who served, they served not just for themselves but for everyone else.  Their sacrifice is worthy of remembrance and gratitude.

The reality is that we have lost millions either in combat on the battlefield or indirectly as a result of wounds, exposure, or addictions attempting to escape the memories they endured.  Suicides, overdoses, medical issues, economic issues, moral issues, social difficulties, and spiritual emptiness are far too common among combat veterans.  I include them in my remembrance of those who died in war!  To all our warriors, the living wounded, and those who died, I say THANK YOU!  Without your sacrifice, we would not be Free!

I do not say Happy Memorial Day for it is not a Happy Day except in the sense that we are still Free!  For me, it is a somber day, a day of reflection and remembrance.  It is a day of gratitude and a day I am determined to give Honor to those deserving of Honor so long as I live.  To the Fallen I stand and give a slow Salute and say a heartfelt – THANK YOU!

God bless you and God bless America!

Before you dismiss me as a kook and another of a myriad of conspiracists give me a chance to present my contention.  If you agree wholly or partially then I welcome, you to the fight for freedom.  If you disagree vehemently and vitriolic disdain rises in your heart, I hope you will tolerate me and pray for me.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion whether it is based on factual data or preference.  That is a right I will fight to maintain.  One of our rights constitutionally is Freedom of Speech and that must also embody the freedom of thought.  If we lose that, we lose that which our Republic was established upon.

I believe in education and believe that being informed is not only a powerful tool in life but a necessary one.  On the other hand, I bristle when I hear assertions that only the educated in our formal system of education have the right to guide, rule, or govern.  I have known some highly educated dunces and some uneducated geniuses when it comes to common sense.

Having an Ivy League University degree or advanced degree does not qualify one to be the only voice heard.  Theodore Beale (Vox Day) suggested that prestigious institutions or Elite employers only recruit at the most elite colleges, and they want recruits to be attractive, energetic, articulate, socially smooth, and have had elite personal connections, jobs, and extracurriculars.  That is interesting, especially the ‘extracurriculars’ part.  Whatever that might mean.

I have observed for the past few decades that those who hail from those prestigious institutions of higher learning and follow the toxic liberal rhetoric believe they are the smartest in the room politically.  Egotism and Elitism do not bode well for the common man.  If the Elitists are allowed to become a Ruling Class or Oligarchy, the common man pays dearly.  The ideas of those superior beings (as they see themselves) must be funded.  They do not use their money but the money of the working stiff and see taxes as the pathway to prosperity.  Well, prosperity for them and their cronies.

Among those following and spewing forth the lunacy of the Left is the self-anointed spokesperson for the liberal activists, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.  He supposedly has an economics degree.  I am not sure what she learned in her studies, but an understanding of the Free Market was not among them.  He insists that Capitalism is not a Redeemable System.  Wow!  A person with a degree in Economics no less! 

She made the laughable statement following her assertion about Capitalism, “I believe that in a broad sense, because when we toss out these big words – capitalism, socialism – they get sensationalized.  People translate them into meaning things that perhaps they don’t mean.”  She is unable to define socialism or capitalism nor can the WOKE who follow her.

The Elitists want you to believe that if we were to discard our Free Enterprise System of Economics and embrace a Hitleresque economic system it would magically change things.  For example, if you worked at Starbucks and we suddenly switched to socialism you would become an owner, not an employee.  The politically connected, ones who own those companies would let you think what you want and continue to rake in the profits and leave you where you were. 

In her system and that embraced by the followers of toxic liberalism, all power and control would be in the hands of those in politics.  People would be forcibly prevented from owning their own businesses and only those in politics and at the top would prosper leaving no hope for the little man or woman to advance.  Capitalism is a system based on a free-market economy in which an individual may own his or her own business and pursue the American dream of success.  That is something they either disdain or do not understand.  Work?  Do you expect them to work, invest, and risk their all to pursue a dream?   Heaven forbid that should be the state’s responsibility to provide for them.

The Elitists Ruling Class Oligarchy wants Control.  If that means destroying our economy, mandating us into servitude, then so be it.  If, as AOC suggests, her party and fellow activists desire to aid the common man or woman why would you plunge us into economic chaos?  No, the direr the situation is for the average citizen, the more the government can become the sugar daddy and provide.  When the government provides monetarily it demands concessions in the arena of liberties and rights.  Simply, it demands more control.

The assault on the Oil and Gas industry by this administration is a prime example of planned destruction for a political cause.  In 2020 our oil production produced a glut so large that Oil Tankers were forced to become floating storage for the crude.  We enjoyed energy independence and imported crude rather than depending on foreign oil to supply our needs.  Prices were wonderfully low and now they are going through the roof.  This is largely the fault of Biden’s attack on energy in favor of the ill-advised pursuit of green energy as a sole source.

The Oil and Gas industry realized that it had to become more prudent and develop a better business model during 2020.  They knew they had to assiduously avoid producing a glut that flooded the market.  Sufficient, but not overproduction was the desire and plan.  With that new business model and a sounder method of operation, shale oil could take America back to the days of just a few years past – energy independence. 

Sadly, the federal government has no desire to allow this to transpire.  The Biden administration has stated that they think high oil prices will open the door for alternative energy sources. Therefore, they plan to keep the fossil fuel energy sources at a minimum so that Americans grow weary of paying exorbitant prices and will embrace the hope of cheaper fuel in the Green New Deal.  Unfortunately, the Green Plan will produce even more shortages and higher prices.  Woe is me will be the cry of all who drink this Kool-Aid.

I am not opposed to alternative energy sources being developed.  I applaud them. But not at the expense of fossil fuels which are abundant and needful.  The Climate Activists are wrong on climate, and they are wrong on energy. 

So long as the Elitist Ruling Oligarchy has power, we will pay for their fallacious ideas. Most of us do not have a giant nest egg and an endless supply of cash to weather the storm of insane prices.  That forces multitudes into the category of being dependent upon the government for sustenance.  If the government subsidizes it demands payment in the form of obedience to its edicts.  That means they gain control, and it further empowers those who seek power. 

America, we can throw off the chains of the Elitists but only if we cross party lines and unite as Freedom Fighters at the ballot box.  If we return to God and unite for America, we can reclaim that which has been stolen from us.  I stand for Faith, Family, and Freedom, will you join me?

God bless you and God bless America!

I am not an economics guru and do not normally dabble in financial prognostications, but I believe the genie is out of the bottle and the handwriting is on the wall.  I have been reading the views and reviews of some heretofore astute and accurate financial experts and virtually all of them agree that a collapse is coming.  Some believe it is already taking place and the house of cards created by this administration and the globalists have not fallen sufficiently to pull back the curtains so that all can see.

I often find reading the views of those in the late 1700s and early 1800s informative.  One such observation came from Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers.  He observed and believed that power over man’s subsistence amounted to power over his will.  That was a fire across the bow of all would-be oligarchs and tyrants.  It was a warning plea to the citizens of America to beware of politicians and the granting to them unlimited power.

We have food producers, farmers, and economists all warning that shortages are coming in virtually every sector.  Some of those shortages are manufactured and some are the result of the current governmental policies in various sectors of society.  The Russian/Ukrainian War is creating fertilizer shortages and that will result in both escalation of produce prices as well as shortages of that commodity.  I have not been a prepper and refuse to live in fear, but I am suggesting that nonperishable food items should be in our cupboards immediately in as large a supply as we can afford.

Hillary called for a ‘Reset’ and she was only echoing the desire and buzzword of the globalists.  Joe Biden’s handlers are fully committed to what is being called ‘The Great Reset’ globally.  Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum is promoting that idea.  Joe Biden and his handlers are fully committed to that idea and objective. 

Mr. Klaus wrote and published a book called “COVID-19: The Great Reset.”  That was in July 2020, and we are nearing two years later.  What did he know so early in the pandemic?  His book is a revelation, intentional or unintentional of their agenda.  They, like Adolf Hitler, warned the world beforehand, what they intended, and like then most have either ignored or denied the possibility.

Inflation has soared past 8.5% and the metric used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics is woefully short of full disclosure. There is something called the Truflation index that places the current rate of inflation at around 13.3% and may be higher.  Virtually everyone knows it is much more than 8.5% and we are reminded of it each time we check out at the supermarket or fill up at the gas pump. 

The U.S. Treasury yield curve invert historically has been almost 100% accurate in predicting a recession has predicted one within two years and an almost 70% likelihood that it will be within the next year.  Encouraging, isn’t it?  NO! 

I am going to venture into a dimension that will make me persona non grata to some because I am going to touch the COVID-19 Hell and a little know experiment that is revealing.  I believe that COVID-19 as Klaus Schwab wrote is part of the globalist Great Global Reset.  Again, it is always about money, power, and control.

Have you ever heard of the Asch Conformity Experiment?  I had not until recently and found it fascinating and deeply disturbing at the same time.  If the goal of the experiment had been to get to the truth, I would applaud it, but the truth was not the objective Conformity was.  What is frightening in this is that the view of the Globalists and Leftists is that only Conformity is allowable and anything else must be destroyed, censored, and silenced.

The experiment revealed that people will actually believe things they know to be false or question if they think that everybody else believes them.  That is beyond incomprehensible to me but let me continue.  What does that have to do with COVID-19?  Everything!

In COVID-19 the objective was to have everyone believe:

• COVID-19 was far riskier than it was or was even reported, making any governmental actions justified.
• That Vaccines were our only hope.  (Again, I am not trashing anyone who did or did not take the jab, simply pointing out what the experiment reported.)  We were to believe that this was the only hope even though the technology has not worked or not worked as purported.
• That anyone not taking the vaccine was a subhuman murderer and deserving to be shunned, fired, ostracized, and banned from society.  The hope was to paint them as undeserving of travel or food.
• That not wearing a mask was the height of selfishness.  Yet, study after study reported that the masks were, at best minimally effective and most of the time ineffective.
• That Children, who were scientifically proven to be at negligible risk, had to be vaccinated or they would kill Grandma or something of the like.

I realize that I am in deep trouble already, but I will continue.  The Asch Conformity Experiment showed that if one person stood up to the narrative, it was easier for another and then another to resist.  Therefore, it was imperative that there be no dissension allowed else control would be lost. 

In a nutshell, the Asch Experiment, conducted by Solomon Asch, found out that most people, when seeing a consensus of participants agreeing on something that was reasonably obvious that it was false, they actually ended up agreeing with those false opinions simply because everyone else seemed to think they were true.  That is frightening!  How many times as teens did you or your teens say, “Everybody’s doing it as a justification?”

The problem for the purveyors of the Great Reset and the hope for America and humanity is that if one, only one person stands and resists it creates an environment where the sheep stop being blind and begin to think.  I hope that explains why some who have been vocal in questioning the process and mandates have been so vilified and targeted.  If you are one of those, you are a threat to the narrative.  I have said from the outset that every person should be allowed to decide for themselves what path to follow.  So, if you did, that should be your decision and if you did not that should also be your decision.

If open debate and truth were the objectives of COVID or any element of society and government then why the censorship?  Why were people like Drs. Malone, McCullough, Koury, Urso, Cole, and Alexander; the Barrington great three; and then incomparable RFK, Jr. disallowed from voicing their dissent and question?  The nail that sticks up gets hammered down and they have been hammered down.

If they are wrong, open debate with statistical factual scientific evidence would refute them.  If they are right, then all of us need to know that we might have been played to achieve the desire of the Great Rest Globally. 

On December 30, 1776, the Revolution hang in the balance and General Washington was about to lose his army due to enlistments expiring.  Things were dire and he made an impassioned plea for six-more weeks of service.  He acknowledged that they had done all that had been asked and more, even more than could be reasonably expected.  He told them that the country’s future was hanging in the balance and pleaded with them.  He asked everyone who would stay to step forward.

The drums rolled and not a man budged.  It looked over and America would not become the reality they dreamed of.  People exchanged glances then finally one man stepped forward, then another, “I will stay if you will,” said one man to his friend.  In a few minutes, everyone but the invalids volunteered, and we know that America won her independence.

That is an example of one lone voice turning the tide for good.  Will we be that voice and save America from the Great Global Reset that those desiring to fundamentally transform us?  Will we stand for Faith, Family, and Freedom?  Will we?  I will.

God bless you and God bless America!

I will attempt to resist the temptation to go on the offensive against some heretical theories regarding the world, the church, and America.  I am a natural-born American citizen, a native Texan, a Vietnam veteran, a father, grandfather, widower, and a Christian.  I have some core convictions regarding life, freedom, liberty, government, etc that are unshakeable.  Those core convictions are rooted in my faith in God, my interpretation of the Bible, and my understanding of the reason and purpose for the American Revolution.  Freedom is not Free, but it is worth the cost to secure and preserve it.

Some insist that Matthew 24:34 when Jesus said, “this generation will not pass away until all these things happen,” means the generation He was speaking to.  Others insist that it means that the generation that sees these things beginning will not pass away before the fulfillment of His prophecy.  I believe, based on the entirety of the Bible that He was referring to a future time.  You may not and that is your right to interpret things as you believe.  Yes, I know that Titus destroyed Jerusalem in 70 A.D., but I do not believe that all the prophecies of the Bible or the events of the Book of Revelation have transpired in full.

I take seriously the statements of the Bible about war on a large global scale, geological catastrophes, pestilence, epidemics, increased crime, family breakdown, destructive behavior and attitudes, and the lack of civility.  I take seriously the warnings about large numbers allowing their love for God to grow cold, religious hypocrisy, widespread apathy, and even ridicule regarding the End of Times and the Coming of the Lord. 

The apostle Paul warned Timothy that in the last days there would be incredibly hard times and self-worship and self-centeredness would be pervasive.  He warned that greed would be the driving force in society and disobedience, disrespectful attitudes, and behavior would be on display.  There would be hatred running amok and the hearts of people would become hard and unforgiving.  He warned that desire for pleasure would stifle people’s love for God and false teachings would arise and convince many to embrace heresy.

We have trusted the Arm of Flesh in our pursuit of resolving the problems of America and the world.  We have allowed ourselves to be deceived that this battle for Freedom is to be fought in the political arena and won or lost at the ballot box.  Please hear me, I believe those are important, but they are not where the battle is won or lost.  Anyone reading this who is not a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ or does not embrace the tenets of Christianity will likely disagree.

If we allow hate, thirst for vengeance, and retaliation to prevail we will become as tainted as those seeking the fundamental transformation of America into something other than what the Founding Fathers fought for.  The message of Jesus was consistently, “LOVE.”  We are to love our neighbors as ourselves.  Some argue that they do not love themselves, but the Bible declares, “No man ever hated his own flesh.”  (Ephesians 5:29). 

If we could reach the place where we embraced and adopted the sentiment and objective of the Declaration of Independence, we would move light years ahead in solving the problems of our world.  That sentiment is declared the self-evident truth that “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

If we adopted the directives of the Declaration of Independence that man is a created being and that of the Bible that we are ALL created in the image of God could learn to live harmoniously with each other.  Sadly, we are subjected to generational hatred and prejudice that precludes peaceful coexistence with anyone outside our ideological worldview.  We seem incapable of viewing others in that light and base our opinions on skin pigmentation, ethnicity, religion, or political-ideological persuasions. 

I do not hate anyone, although I do detest the actions and lifestyles of some.  I fight daily to ensure that my reaction to others is not through the grid of some preconceived stereotyping of them.  I believe that God loves all people and gave us the ability to make choices in life.  I do not believe that He created us as mindless puppets unable to obey or disobey His directives.  He desires obedience and rewards faithfulness.

Love does cover a multitude of sins and a soft answer can cause hate and anger to be abated.  However, there are times when no matter what you say or how much you love that person you are directing your Christian and Civil charity toward will not be restrained in their hate.  There are times when you must disassociate with people and leave them to wallow in their cesspool of destruction.

Politically in America, we are in a morass of destruction.  We did not get there with the election of Joe Biden or any president.  What is happening today is a display of the fruit of the seeds of destruction that have been sown for decades.  Who is to blame for the condition of America and much of the world?  Is it the politicians?  Yes, they are to blame for their actions.  Is it the power-hungry rich elitists?  Yes, they are to blame for their willingness to destroy for their personal gain.  Is it the globalists?  Yes, they must share much of the blame.  But are they the ones whose feet the blame should be laid?  I say No!

I blame preachers, churches, and Christians for the destructive conditions that exist.  I am part of that number, so I blame myself for where we are.  The church allowed the government to effectively silence it with the fallacious or misunderstood and misapplied doctrine of “separation of church and state.”  That came to mean nothing of God and the Bible could be used in determining the political direction of the nation.  That is a view that opened the door to the destruction of today. 

The church and preachers became kingdom builders, not God’s kingdom but their personal empires, and dared not rock the boat.  Frequently, preachers refrained from making any statements that might be deemed political or controversial and the sheep were left blind to the dangers.  The Bible insists that the watchmen see danger and do not warn, the blood of those destroyed is on their hands. 

Our Founding Fathers recognized the value and importance of the biblical teachings in our educational system and warned of the destruction if the Bible was removed.  The Bible has been and we are seeing the fruit of that misguided action.  Being silent in the face of evil is to become complicit with that evil.  God values life and the proponents of abortion do not value the life God created in the womb.  God values family and places a high demand on parents to train their children.  He paints the picture of the home as having a father and a mother there together training the children. 

The prohibitions of the Bible are not for punishment’s sake but for protection!  God knows the dangers and damage of illicit sex, homosexuality, pornography, lying, stealing, murder, hate, etc.  He has provided us a pathway to peace and prosperity in Him and through the power of Love! 

I know that my blog today, could be and will be deemed a sermon, but I believe that if we would return to God, moral rightness, strong homes, and families, and resist the temptation to allow prejudice to define and drive us, we could be restored.  I believe that if the Christian family would follow the prescription of 2 Chronicles 7:14, we would see an almost immediate change in our government.  I am not saying it is a magic pill to bring restoration, but it is an invaluable first step.

I will stand for Faith, Family, and Freedom as long as I live and I ask that you join me in defeating the evil of this world, by turning to God and doing what is right!  I ask that you join me in interceding for America and the world.  I ask that you set your heart to making the Golden Rule your guide for life.  Let’s unite for America and return to a state of a nation that enjoys the propitious smiles of heaven.

God bless you and God bless America!

I am writing from my perspective as a believer in the Bible, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Creator God.  You may or may not believe God or the Bible, but I do.  You may or may not believe that it is wrong to eliminate God from everything public, but I do.  You may or may not believe that it is within the rights of those who do not believe to demand that those who do violate their core convictions and accommodate the non-belief of the nonbelievers, but I do.  So, if that offends you, please close this post and move on.  I defend your right to believe what you believe.  I care what you believe but recognize your right to make your choice.

It is my view that an atheistic minority is tyrannizing America.  Well, I hope it is a minority and that this nation has not suffered such devolution that a majority of Americans have become nonbelievers.   That was not the case when this republic was founded and not the view of our founding fathers.  They included the Bible, God, and prayer in their deliberations and in their hammering out our system of government.  History supports that assertion regardless of the current view of many.

When I listen to the secularists speak regarding the First Amendment, I get the impression that they believe that our founders established it to prevent all Americans from any exposure to religion.  They come across as those who believe that those courageous founders wrote the Constitution, and Bill of Rights, and recognized rights, liberties, and freedoms from a pro-atheistic perspective.  That is beyond ludicrous.  They wanted freedom for those who believed and those who did not.  However, most of them would be astounded at the number of nonbelievers in America today.

Sadly, the Republican Party that supported prayer in public schools during the Reagan years now is largely silent on the issue.  Many Republicans and maybe most Republicans are extremely skittish to even broach the subject.  They seem to believe that the victories and presumptions of the secularists over the past half-century are insurmountable and therefore they have accepted defeat.  I weep over that possibility. 

Many Republicans and too many Christians appear to have adopted the view that the Constitution of the United States is neutral about religion.  That view, which is ahistorical and unconstitutional, is widely pervasive.   Dare we forget that the Constitution itself rests on Judeo-Christian theism, declaring that God exists, and he grants rights to human beings that no government has the right to rescind?

The First Amendment was designed to prevent the government from swooping in and crushing Christianity.  It might be worthy to note that for decades after the adoption of the First Amendment some states including Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and South Carolina disallowed atheists from serving in public offices.  To morph from that position to the view that the founders considered religion anathema to public government requires one to totally ignore history and the writings of the founders.  Alas, that is where we are.

I was somewhat encouraged that all is not lost when the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 on a Free Speech issue.  I was shocked but pleasantly surprised that even the liberal leftists on the court stood for the Constitution.  The case was Shurtleff, et al. v. City of Boston, et al.  It involved the question of whether the City of Boston violated the First Amendment when it refused to fly the flag of a Christian group, although it flew the flags from other outside groups.

Three flagpoles stand in the plaza outside Boston’s City Hall.  The American flag and the flag for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts grace two of the three.  The City’s flag flies from the third.  However, over the years the City has allowed outside groups to hold ceremonies on the plaza and flay a flag of their choosing from the third pole in connection with those ceremonies. 

Between 2015 and 2017, Boston approved the raising of 50 unique flags for 284 such ceremonies.  Most of those flags were flags from other countries, but some were associated with other causes, such as the Pride Flag, a banner that honored emergency workers, and numerous others.  The court ruled that Boston’s flag-raising program does not express government speech and that the flag-raising program did not express government speech, and Boston’s refusal to let petitioners fly their flag violated the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment.  The SCOTUS got it right and for that I am grateful.

We are living in an America where those who desire our demise or fundamental transformation into something other than the Republic, we have been for almost two and one-half centuries.  We now have a Ministry of Truth, Disinformation, or Information frighteningly like that of Nazi Germany with Joseph Goebbels.  That has run into difficulty and for that I am thankful. Their desire to control the narrative, and the right to think and speak what we believe is tantamount to an assault on the Constitution and the Free Constitutional Republic.

When we began to allow those who followed a humanistic and secularistic view to dictate what could and could not be allowed in the public, we began the demise of freedom.  We opened the door to tyranny and handed those desirous of our transformation into something other than our design a blank cheque to pursue without hindrance their agenda. 

I contend that we are living in a condition that is not only dangerous but destructive for everyone not an upper-echelon member of the Ruling Class.  I am reminded of the words of John Adams which speak to our condition.  He said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

The father of our country and first president, George Washington echoed those sentiments.  He said, “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens…. And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion.”

Moral absolutes and absolute truth are rejected by the atheistic minority, most politicians, a large swath of academics, and virtually all progressives and liberals.  Too many who attest to being Christians have descended into that abyss as well.  What do we believe?  We must define our beliefs in every aspect of life. 

If we desire to keep America the Free Constitutional Republic where “All people are viewed as created equal and given inalienable rights by our creator including the right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” we must define our beliefs.  If we allow the vocal minority of nonbelievers to determine what is allowable, we invite tyranny and despotism.  We invite censorship and the establishment of thought policing of society.  We are creating a world without freedom in the name of protecting freedom, but freedom for what we desire not freedom for everyone.

The Bible speaks plainly about many subjects and much of the church today avoids those topics.  The Bible identifies gender as male and female, not a myriad of manmade genders adopted to enable a fleshly desired lifestyle.  The Bible speaks about marriage, family, morals, ethics, and truth.  The Constitution and our system of laws have their foundation in the Bible and the Ten Commandments.  We were not established to abandon our faith, but faith facilitated the establishment of our Republic. 

You may agree or vehemently disagree with my position.  I accept that as your right of choice.  I pray that we can all find a way to address the issues facing America civilly and reasonably rather than hurl vitriolic insults.  I believe in God, the Bible, and the Christian faith.  I believe in America and the God-given freedoms granted to ALL.  I believe in Faith, Family, and Freedom.  I want America to return to our founding and moral moorings.

God bless you and God bless America!
