cultural advancement. I think not.: america disolving

America is falling apart.

            People like to say that we as a people are advancing, progressing ever so fast intellectually, and technologically… but I have to disagree. All of these advancements are great, but we as a people are losing our morality. Our ethical standards are going downhill. America has forgotten God and His word - where we get our basic common laws from. Sadly, we as a country have removed the Ten Commandments from the courtroom and public schools. What the children would read, had they been left up: “Thou shall not kill…Thou shall not lie.” If they read this, it will not likely cause a psychiatric problems, but rather these youth may rationalize their standards to the point where such Commands forbidding lying, stealing, and adultery are ignored.

In today’s world, law students at Stanford University have debated weather monkeys have the right to consent, and even if they have a right to trial and representation. We live in a nation where in New York a woman won the right to run topless because it is sexist to say that men can jog topless but for women it is considered indecent exposure. Do I even need to say that is ridiculous?! Not to mention that in Boston, federal court is trying to decide if a felon in prison for life has the constitutional right to get a sex change, by using our tax dollars to pay for it. Again: I do not see our culture progressing!

To the contrary, is digressing rapidly. It is not so much about progress; rather it is how we progress. Also, ethics is being lost in the processes. Hillary Clinton said that when President Bush vetoed the embryonic stem cell bill - which would provide federal dollars for embryonic stem cell research - it showed how he places ideology over science. This view is disturbing, to put it mildly. Science should never be held more important than our morals! Atroshice things have been done in the name of science. Take the holocaust, for example. Ethics should be placed before science; Hillary is just plain wrong! If we do not have high moral standards then what is there to say what is going to far.

Ideology shapes choices, regardless of what Sen. Clinton says. It should always be this way. Sadly, America as a nation has lost its firm hold on these ideals, which used to be solid. At the very least, we have forgotten the true way - God’s Way. Now our crumbling morals are a grave problem. “Why?” one may ask. Just look at society: we have decisions on issues like global warming (which takes more consideration for the earth rather than the effect on poor people around the globe who lack indoor pluming, refrigerators, hospitals, and ambulances). The average person on the street does not know that the third world will not be able to advance if global warming activist get their way. And that means poor living conditions and more death and all this is done in the name of save the earth. Other decisions involve gay marriage, euthanasia, abortion, and so on. For example, people who say that marriage is between 1 man and 1woman are considered radical even though it has been defined that way for centuries, and euthanasia has become a common occurrence in Europe w/ out the consent of the family or the patient.  With our ethical standards rapidly declining, our society will fall into a quagmire of sin.

The solution I propose: Christians should stand and be the salt and light of the world, as Jesus Himself called us to be. We as believers need to do all that we can to stand against the evil in this world. As the Body of Christ, we must be the ones to stand for what is right - if others follow, great, but don't worry when others oppose us. Remember, we are to be in the world but not of it - we are to stand and be firm for we are Christ’s representatives on earth.
The key is to stand for what is right, regardless of what persecution comes - and it will doubtless come! We ought not to forget that America will not change without a spiritual awakening. This is only possible if the churches across America are revived beforehand. A lukewarm church is not going to bring about much change. In fact, it will likely conform to the world more than it will change it. However, that - my friends - is a subject for a later time.

Why I can not vote democrate

While listening to the democratic Presidential debate, where global warming is the greatest evil instead Islamic terrorism, where poverty creates crime instead of personal responsibility, and Universal health care is the norm. Universal health care is an Idea that is a monster of a governmental program that can not be achievable, if congress can't balance a budget how can they supply us w/ health care. this is now the main stream of the democratic party, and this is why I can not vote democrat. They sound like a bunch of demogogs running against the Bush administration not the republican party nominee. I am not voting for some one who is telling me something I want to here because it sounds good but it is not reality. it is just hot air. There is no way that any political party can make a perfect health car policy, or tax policy. I am going to vote for a Person who believes that the greatest moral issue of our time is abortion, that the greatest evil of our time is terrorism; I am voting for a person who is going to do what is right by Iraq and for the Iraqis. I am voting for a person who will stand for justice and strict constructionist judges. One who will star a immigration policy with three separate parts, bill one secure the border, bill two fix immigration flow to where it comes in faster rather than slower. finally find solution to deal w/ immigrants all ready illegally here. Therefore I can not vote democrat, and I will vote republican weather I like the candidate or not. As Ronald Reagan said if a man agrees with me 80% of the time he is not my enemy. I hope America is seeing the truth.

Be Informed

 Hay I'm back and just in time for the presidential campaigns.
All I am going to say for now is prepare for the worst mud slinging you have seen in a long time. With all the big names like Obama, McCain,Clinton, Romny, and so on prepare for the mud. By the way Remember on Election day we are voting for a president who can lead so vote on issues not on the mud that is going to be thrown in the next couple of months.
So to all the smart voters out there remember Vote by issues not on the way the tv adds portray them. In other words Get online and look up there voting records. And of course listen to talk radio. Be informed and vote intelligently. By issue not on what is said on TV.

Fareness Doctre a Farce

    Democrats have reintroduced a bill that will try to silence the conservatives in the media like Sean Hannity, and Michael Medved. This Censorship was removed in the Eighty's by Reagan. Since then conservative talk radio has exploded into a large market and liberals are trying to stamp out the last opposition to their liberal policy. I will keep up on this and write more later.
