I am a believer, and I think our country is headed in a direction that is going to end in God punishing our country for allowing all this ungodlessness to continue. I have kids, and I hope they abide by the BIBLE and the laws God gave us to live by (which is what I try to instill in them by my actions and by my words). I see every day in this country that some special interest group tries to force their twisted beliefs down good moral Godly people's throats. If you think this is not true, answer this---who is the bigot? Is it the ungodly groups forcing their agenda, or the Godly people trying to live by the BIBLE teachings that Christ taught. Every day you hear how some "radical" Christian group will not tolerate the ungodly acts of other americans (who because of their ungodly agenda get special consideration over americans not doing the same ungodly acts). Christ teaches us to abide in the law and not conform to the world and its twisted teachings. It saddens me, but America seems to not be a Christian nation anymore. According to the BIBLE, we as a country, will pay for our straying from God's teachings just as all the blessed nations before us. Why can't we as a country see that every great civilization before us has perished because of their moral decay and society's promotion of these ungodly actions. The sad part is I don't know if the America we see today has enough Christian people that want to return to the GODLY country we once were. And if there is enough Christian people, will they stand up for what they supposedly believe and not be swayed by the world and its ungodly lusts. I pray God bless America again to be "ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL".

The great equalizer for the cause of the advancement of those who advocate for secular humanism has been the accusation from the left against those on the right for being intolerant of others. Of course, the truth is we are merely pointing out God's standards as they apply to personal moral behavior. We don't judge anybody but, we understand that abortions and the like are contrary to God's will. So, because we dare to point folks in the right direction and resist state and national laws to the contrary, we are branded as being intolerant self righteous bigots. This even though God has clearly stated that we are His instruments through which He reaches out to the world to save those who will repent.

The withering assault from the left, characterized by their charges of Christian's self righteousness and lack of tolerance for others, especially if the nuclear option can be used, that of racial bias, has caused the church to shrink back from her charge to expose sin and the ravanges of sin.

Christians are to speak out against what is wrong. Frankly that isn't so much to ask when one considers the unspeakable sacrifice of the Son of God for man when, he laid down His life on the cross for us. The liberals are exactly right when they say they have the right to live anyway they want. And Christians have it right when they point out the ramifications of sin. Where America as a nation has left the path, is to allow government to legislate in favor of sin (declaring them legal), in lieu of a live and let live policy. (IMO, the true face of the concept of the separation of church and state) It's more than a bit ironic that folks want to holler about an invasive federal government about some things, while they demand federal invasion to force those who disagree with them to acquiesce on matters of sexual depravity and matters of social justice.

The fox is in the henhouse. We have a group of legislators who espouse the tenets of liberalism and who despise Christianity and much of what it stands for. This is the reason politicians are presently consumed with micro managing the personal lives of folks rather than investing themselves in true statesmanship and governance of the people. Christians are being forced to capitulate. And, this is why America has lost face around the globe. Strength, power and opulence have been shouldered aside by tolerance on steroids and social justice, as all of the legislation presently being considered clearly reveals. I mean, with all that is afoot around the globe and in our own backyard and the SCOTUS is wasting time with taking on the liberal argument? :please:

When Ronald Reagan came to office, the word of an American president bode incredible ramifications for those who would defy the world's greatest superpower. Before he even got to swear his presidential oath, the Iranians made sure they told Mr Reagan that the hostages would be sent home immediately. These days it seems nobody is afraid to test us. With congressional liberals clamoring for us to lay down in the face of terror for all the world to hear. It wouldn't take a war college grad to see that our national resolve has dissolved. We've laid down our compass. The greatest nation has turned her back on the source of wisdom which has guided us for 237 years and we are lost.
