Someone please neuter Newdow...

2005-01-10T01:48:00.000-05:00

Well after another hiatus I am back again. Actually I was visiting South Georgia, interviewing for a job.

Will someone please take a 2x4 and knock this Newdow guy across the head. He just doesn't seem to get it.

The lawsuit also states: "It is an offense of the highest magnitude that the leader of our nation, while swearing to uphold the Constitution, publicly violates that very document upon taking his oath of office." Mr. Newdow also said yesterday he sought "only the respect and equal protection that the Constitution requires from our government."

Come on Newdow. Nowhere in the 1st amendment (which is what he is refering too) does it say you cannot pray in public at the inauguration. I still have not figured out where he gets the Seperation of Church and State in the 1st amendment.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Will someone please tell me where it says anything about the Seperation of Church and state in the 1st amendment.
The first line means that Congress cannot pass a law preventing the establishment of any religion, or a law preventing the exercise of religion. This mis-interpretation drives me crazy.
If Newdow doesn't want to live in a Christian Nation, Then MOVE!!!! We are a nation founded on Christian principles. If you don't want to say "under God" during the pledge, the MOVE!!! If you don't like "In God We Trust" on our money, then MOVE!!! If you don't like the fact that a preacher says a prayer before the Presidential Inauguration, then MOVE!!! Don't try to take away our Christian rights, which is exactly what this guy is trying to do.

"I have never sued to have anyone keep his or her hand off of a Bible," Mr. Newdow said in response to yesterday's story published in The Washington Times regarding his lawsuit. "As my prayer for relief and judgment specifies, I sought only the prohibition of using clergymen to further religion."

Does this pastor who is going to pray have great powers. Are we going to see an outpouring of saved people at the inauguration. I think not. He is only going to ask for Gods guidance and blessing upon the administration. It is not like there is going to be an invitation at the end, with everyone sing "Just as I am".

What makes this Newdow guy seem even more whacko, is the fact that he used the word prayer in one of his statements, as if it were his own. "My prayer for relief and judgment specifies," Does this guy even know what he said. The word prayer according to Webster means; A reverent petition made to God, a god, or another object of worship. Since this guy is athiest, how can he make a petition to anything higher than himself. If you tell me that is not what he meant, then tell him to use words in sentences to reflect his own belief, not one of religion.

Who said you can't win if you keep Recounting...

2004-12-31T22:13:00.000-05:00

This story has not gotten too much attention since the Tsunami disaster. The Dems have finally found a way to win. Just recount until you the results you want. Here's the headline from the Billings Gazette, take a look at what the new Democratic Govenor-elect, Christine Gregoire had to say.

Gregoire congratulated Rossi for running a strong campaign, and said it was up to him to decide when and where to concede. But she ruled out a brand new election.

"Do-overs" occur only in golf, and only during practice, she said. "This is not golf and this is not practice."

What a total contrast to how she was feeling a few weeks ago. I guess in her eyes she's the only one allow to take a Mulligan. What a Joke. It was actually done-over until she got the victory. I would be on the PGA Tour if I was allowed three shots on every stroke. Look out Tiger! It is just like playing poker, if you do it long enough, you'll get the result you want, especially if you cheat. Keep reading.

After the election, more than 700 ballots surfaced in King County, which includes Seattle. The additional votes allowed Gregoire to stretch her lead from just 10 votes in the hand recount to her triple-digit advantage. A legal challenge would have to be filed by Jan. 22, 10 days after Gregoire's scheduled inauguration.

On Thursday, the day after King County released a list of nearly 900,000 voters who cast ballots Nov. 2, Republicans prodded county officials to explain why the list appeared to have about 3,500 fewer names than the number of votes that were actually tallied.

Either there were some aces up the sleeve or it must be magic! Now we're pulling ballots out the hat, I guess the Rabbit is out of a job. I'll say it again, "What a Joke"! Sounds like the 2000 Presidential election to me. To bad the Dems did not have 58 days to unemploy the Rabbit in 2000, which is exactly where it was going. Thank God for the Supreme Court.
I hope Rossi never concedes, and takes it to the highest court.

My 'Terminal' Adventure...

2004-12-30T23:10:00.000-05:00

My terminal experience was not near as bad as some travelers, but it is still worth talking about. I have traveled (flew) home from the Midwest to the South a couple of times during the Christmas holidays and each time the same result. I arrive in Memphis, Tennessee and drive three hours to my final destination. This Christmas it all started on December 23. I checked my flight before I left my home, only because of the ice storm that was going through the South. Everything was a go. I printed my tickets before I left and tried to assign myself a seat. I arrived at the airport and did the auto check-in. I was thinking this is going to smooth. About 20 minutes before my flight, it was announced that the flight would be delayed about a half-hour. No big deal, I had a 2 hour lay-over in Memphis. Six hours later I was boarding the plane, with my rescheduled flight set to depart Memphis at 7:25 and arrive home at 8:30., so much for going smooth.
Meanwhile my wife and kids were driving down for the holidays, because of their plan to stay on until school resumed. I had to get back and go back to work. Someone has to do it, right. Anyway my wife had left the previous day, and got stranded approximately 3 hours from Memphis. To my luck they were only 1 hour away when I arrived in Memphis. So I just waited for them to pick me up and we drove the rest of the way. So what was suppose to be a 4 hour flight, turned out to be a 16 hour day.
Well you would think my return flight would maybe turn out a little better, Nope.
I left around noontime on my return flight. Everything seemed to be going well because we only left 15 minutes late. I arrived in Memphis around 1:00, with my scheduled flight to leave at 2:30. Guess what, 6 hours later we were boarding the plane. I heard enough of we're delayed for crew rest, or there is a mechanical problem, or there is equipment blocking the path of the plane, to last me a while.
The airline industry in whole was not prepared for the weather (which during the Winter months bad weather can be expected), or Christmas travelers (Comes the same time every year). My frustration with everything is this, If the company I work for short staffed and did not have contingency plans for unexpected conditions, it would go out of business. The airline industry seems to take the customer for granted. Don't get me wrong, I met some really nice airline personnel, and the sad part they were taking all the heat for mis-management. The problem is they've got you. If you live any distance from relatives or travel on business, you are at their mercy. They either need to get rid of the Airline industry altogether or learn how treat their customer. They sure are willing to charge you a nice price for taking you where you want to go.
OK I have complained enough.
There is a positive to the story however, I was able to catch up on my reading. I finished Ann Coulters book 'How to talk to a Liberal if you must'. I will save that discussion for my next post. I also started reading Joseph Farahs book 'Take back America'. I would recommend both. Ann has a unique way of pointing out how Liberals say one thing and do another. Joseph has some unique insights on how the American people need to take back control of our country.

If you had a bad experience traveling this past holiday season, I want to hear about it. So we can wallow in our self-pity together.

Airport terminal living during the holidays...

2004-12-29T20:14:00.000-05:00

I'm back. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas holiday. I flew home for the holiday, and as most everyone knows it was not the best weekend to be flying the friendly skies.
Just wanted to make a quick post. More tomorrow on my 'Terminal' adventures. Although my troubles were not near the inconvenience that some travelers experienced. It is still worthy of a post.

The Philly 4 = The Fearsome 4?...

2004-12-20T22:18:00.000-05:00

Christian persecution is not hard to find these days. I have been writing about it for several weeks. My posts have mostly revolved around the ACLU and their intolerance of Christians. Farahs newest commentary (Free the Freedom 4) focuses on a group in Philly that have been treated like hardened criminals, just for quoting the Bible. As Farah puts it, where is the ACLU, when Christians are in trouble and their free speech rights are being violated.

I'm amazed when seemingly intelligent people tell me they still think the American Civil Liberties Union is a group that fights for First Amendment freedoms no matter whose ox is being gored.

If that's the case, why is the ACLU not filing amicus briefs in Philadelphia where four Christians are facing 47 years in jail for expressing their free-speech rights?

That's 47 years just for expressing their free-speech rights. Here's what happened.

It all started Oct. 10, when a total of 11 members of Repent America attended a homosexual street festival called "Outfest."

The group, ranging in age from 17 to 72, was surrounded at times by the organizers' security force, known as the "Pink Angels."

Videotapes and still photos taken at the event show the Pink Angels blocking the path of the Repent America members, shouting at them, blowing whistles and so forth. The Christians remain peaceful and calm at all times, despite what appears to be extraordinary provocation, intimidation and harassment.

Guess who was arrested?

That's right. The Christians.

Now if this would have been a Christian festival and some Satanist group, pro-choice group, or gay rights group, would have been protesting, what do you think would have happened. Absolutely nothing! They would have been protected by free-speech rights, and if any charges would have been filed against them, then guess who would have been by their sides. The wonderful Anti Christian Liberals Union.

This is one of the most brazen, frontal attacks on religious freedom and free speech I have seen in my lifetime. If these charges stand, Christians across America will soon be hunted down like dogs as they are in many parts of the world today as the most persecuted religious group on the planet.

It's ironic that this persecution would take place in Philadelphia, the so-called "City of Brotherly Love."

Of course, Philadelphia wasn't always so inhospitable to Christians.

It's worth remembering the very first legislative act in Pennsylvania, April 25, 1682. It was called the Great Law of Pennsylvania and great it was.

"Whereas the glory of Almighty God and the good of mankind is the reason and the end of government, and, therefore government itself is a venerable ordinance of God ... [there shall be established] laws as shall best preserve true Christian and civil liberty, in opposition to all unchristian, licentious, and unjust practices, whereby God may have his due, and Caesar his due, and the people their due, from tyranny and oppression."

Oh how easily we forget over time. "God ... [there shall be established] laws as shall best preserve true Christian and civil liberty, in opposition to all unchristian, licentious, and unjust practices, whereby God may have his due, and Caesar his due, and the people their due, from tyranny and oppression."

What about Noah...

2004-12-19T10:55:00.000-05:00

I have never intended for this blog to be of the religious type, although I have made several references to Christianity and the anti's since I started writing about the ACLU. My last post had to do with Creation. I was inspired to write the post after reading an interesting response to one Joseph Farahs latest commentary's 'Why I believe in Creation'. Since writing the post, I have gotten a couple of comments from it and thought I would continue in this post talking about the accounts of Noahs flood. DH is a regular visitor to this site and if I am reading his comments correctly, an Atheist. I enjoy reading his responses, and even though I do not agree with him, he has some excellent points of view, and seems like a well educated individual. I want to thank him for taking the time to read this blog and to offer some insights on how non-Christians believe. Thanks DH.
He brings up some good points to my latest post, 'Do you believe in Creation?...'
I do not agree with his theories, and I will be the first to say, I am no expert on the subject. My belief in the accounts of Noah are based on faith. Faith that the almighty God, who has the ability to 'Create' just by speaking, can flood the earth and rebuild it from scratch. I have been doing some reading on the subject since DH left his comments, and I have found some very interesting sites, that back up Noahs account with scientific study.

KJV of Genesis 6, 7, 8
Here is a site with a few facts. 'Proving the Flood'
This site is dedicated to the search for the Ark. http://www.arksearch.com/

DH referred to John Woodmorappe in his comments. Mr. Woodmorappe is a creationist that performed a seven year study on the feasibility of Noahs Ark. Here is an article Answering the Critics of Noahs Ark. It doesn't answer all the questions, but it definitely gives you more facts than I could give.

You know science is always trying to disprove creation and some of the accounts of Genesis. I mentioned this at the first of the post, but I thought I would mention it again just to put things in perspective.

Genesis 1 In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, 2the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters. 3Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.

The key words here, "Then God said,". If God can speak and Create (To cause to exist; bring into being.), then God can make anything happen, he has the control.

Make sure you leave me your thoughts and comments.

Do you believe in Creation?...

2004-12-18T13:18:00.000-05:00

Farah wrote a commentary a couple of days ago entitled "Why I believe in Creation". I agree with Farahs take on it, but I believe he left out a few things. This is not about the article itself, (it is suggested reading), but about a response he received.

Farahs Biblical Fairy Tales
I read your column "Why I believe in Creation" today, and I was stunned at the ridiculous things it suggested. The misrepresentation of the facts present in your writing is frightening. Here's a few reasons why I feel this way:
The reason evolutionists don't argue with creationists is because we've learned that there is no point to it. Every creationist I've ever had the conversation will not give up any ground in the discussion, even when they are blatantly wrong.

That's like the pot calling the kettle black. I guess I'm just "Blatantly wrong". No reason to argue with me. He is right, I won't give any ground. I will say this loud and clear. We are not Monkeys. Well let me take that back. According to one of the cartoons below, the ACLU has a few.

Creationists cannot provide a shred of scientific evidence for their beliefs, other than the Bible a collection of documents that is known to have been subjected to editing, omissions and doctoring by numerous hands throughout time. The evidence for evolution is overwhelming, detailed, and virtually undisputed in the scientific community. It is a FACT. We have fossils, we have biological lineages, we have evidence.

For one, the Bible is a book that has stood the test of time. Undoubtedly enough of it has not been edited, omitted, or doctored enough. It still has plenty of critics that try to bash it and pick it apart. The only problem is, not matter how much the critics say it changes, it still gets the same results.

Second, I guess this guy never thought how fossils were formed to come to only one conclusion, that fossils have been formed over millions of years. There is some place in the Bible that talks about the earth being flooded. Can you imagine how quick that happened and how deep the water was. The water was suppose to have covered the earth completely. Mt. Everest is 29,035 ft. or 5.5 miles high. Now think about the pressure five miles deep in the ocean. I would say if you covered me with dirt and added 5.5 miles of water on top of me. It's probably fairly certain to say, I would leave a lasting impression. I wonder if we have ever carbon dated anything 5 miles deep in the ocean. Oh yeah, we can't go five miles deep, the pressure is to great. Just a Bible theory.

Christians can offer no such evidence for their fairy-tale stories the Bible gives us because they are stories not reality. They are charming little stories, granted, but so obviously untrue it's sad that any adult could believe them in the first place. Putting every animal on earth into a boat and floating around for 40 days while a big flood wiped all the evil creatures away? People walking on water, ghosts, virgins giving birth. These are all things that a rational and intelligent person knows are not possible or even realistic by any stretch of the imagination. Yet people talk themselves into believe it. It is astounding.

Let me put in perspective the size of Noahs Ark, which by the way took 100 years to build. It was 459x75x44 or 1.54 million cubic feet or the size of 522 railcars. I wouldn't want to wait for that train. Now I don't know how many animals you can fit in 522 railcars, but I would say a whole bunch. You know I think I am fairly rational and somewhat intelligent, and I don't have to stretch my imagination too far to believe it. I'll say this one more time. I am no Monkey!!!

The ACLU Religion?...you be the judge..

2004-12-14T21:14:00.000-05:00

WorldNetDaily is always one of my favorite reads. As always Joseph Farah has some great insights on what is happening to our world as we know it. His latest commentary 'State Imposed Atheism' is a must read. The following is some points I believe to be true, but I will let you be the judge.

This isn't a conflict over whose view of the First Amendment is correct. It's a conflict in which one side is doing exactly what it accuses the other side of doing – using the government to impose its religion and morality on others.

Let me tell you, there is no threat – no threat at all – that Christians or Jews will, any time soon, successfully impose their own divided faiths on anyone else with the help of the local, state or federal government. It just can't happen, not in the 21st-century, American socio-political climate.

And the ACLU knows this.

The ACLU and its allies actually don't mind their own belief system, their own "faith," their own religion being imposed through the government school systems. They don't mind that values and scientific theories in stark contrast to those of many Christians and Jews be endorsed by the state as holy writ. They don't mind that taxpayer treasuries are raided by judicial tyrants to support unconstitutional programs that violate the firmly held religious beliefs of tens of millions of Bible believers.

What is secular humanism?

It is a religion, as the U.S. Supreme Court rightly confirmed many years ago, that puts man at the center of the universe. How do you put man in the center of the universe? By indoctrinating children for seven hours a day that God is irrelevant to their lives, by attacking any expression of Christian or Jewish faith in the public square, by pitting one faith against another and by marginalizing and persecuting believers in God.

They are radically transforming America from a Godly country to a humanist country.

That's what they mean by "separation of church and state." It's a purely divisive agenda render faithful Jews and Christians impotent, to separate them from the rest of society. As I have pointed out before, that's the real meaning of "separation of church and state."

You know, I never thought of it that way. Farah makes some excellent points. It kinda puts things in perspective. Make sure you read the full commentary, I have only captured part of what Farah is trying to say. You be the judge and sound off.

Christmas Homeland Security...

2004-12-13T21:54:00.000-05:00

I thought this was pretty cool. It is a perfect example of what is happening this holiday season.

I found this letter to the editor in 'The Illinois Leader'. It talks about the anti-Christian ACLU.

For those card carrying ACLU members, I have some reading material for you:
“No purpose of action against religion can be imputed to any legislation, State or national, because this is a religious people…this is a Christian nation.
From the discovery of this continent to the present hour, there is a single voice making this affirmation.
The commission to Christopher Columbus…that “it is hoped that by God’s assistance some of the continents and islands in the ocean will be discovered,”etc.
The first colonial grant---that made to Sir Walter Raleigh in 1584---…and the grant authorizing him to enact statutes for the government of the proposed colony provided that “they be not against the true Christian faith…”
The first charter of Virginia, granted by King James I in 1606…commenced the grant in these words: ”…in propagating of Christian Religion to such People as yet live in Darkness…”
Language of similar import may be found in…the various charters granted to the other colonies.
In language more or less emphatic is the establish of the Christian religion declared to be one of the purposes of the grant.
The celebrated compact made by the Pilgrims in the Mayflower, 1620, recites: ”Having undertaken for the Glory of God, and advancement of the Christian faith…a voyage to plant the first colony in the northern parts…”

This guy seems to know his history. You can read the full letter here.

The Church of the Boy Scouts of America....

2004-12-12T01:29:00.000-05:00

When I found this I wasn't sure if this guy was serious or not. I had to read it several times before I came to the conclusion, this guy really believes this. Tell me what you think after you read it. I found this in Letters to the Editor at the Albany Democrat-Herald. .

Saved by ACLU; thank God!
Thank God for the ACLU. They have come to the rescue again. We all know that the military has been used for the last 40 years to accomplish social change by integration of races and sexes.
However, there is a darker side. The military has been quietly establishing a state religion — the Church of the Boy Scouts of America. This is particularly insidious because they have no theological doctrine other than a belief that there is a being in the universe that is superior to humans.
With the weight of the military behind them, we could all be forced to become members. They we could all be required to Do a Good Turn Daily, and be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean and Reverent.
We may even need to help elderly women across the street.
A dangerous organization indeed!
Fortunately, the ACLU is ever vigilant. They have stopped the military in their tracks, and it will no longer support this evil plan.
The ACLU has already recognized the plot to use the schools to establish the Boy Scouts of America as our state religion and has been effective in stopping that plot.
How grateful we are for the ACLU's making America a better and safer place to live.

Whoa!! I want some of this guys drugs. He either had a bad dream, is in a straight jacket, or is from another planet.
The military is the group that is going to establish the State religion. Man I did not see that coming. To think I was a Boy Scout about 30 years ago and they did not inform me of this. I was tricked into joining their religion, now I'm a member, oh no, save me ACLU, I have been had.

Here's the latest version of the ACLU putting your tax dollars to work.

I guess no sex before marriage is bad. Abstinence promotes religion. Man, I thought we could get this one by them.

Louisiana is rejecting a complaint by the American Civil Liberties Union that the state's website promoting premarital, sexual abstinence violates the Constitution because of its religious references.

Now if you come back and say that the website is promoting religion, then tell me where, other than in faith based circles, is Abstinence promoted? How can you promote abstinence without the presence of religion. The Secularist promote, 'If it feels good, do it!!!' I don't know why they are worried about this website, it's the 'Church of the Boy Scouts of America' they should be worried about. (Big smile on my face.)

There is so much in the news about the anti-Christmas movement, I might as well continue the rampage against the anti's.

Did you know if you put up a tree in your house this year and decorated with lights and a star on top, it is now a 'Community' tree. Read this ridiculous retraction by the 'Wichita Eagle'.

'A Christmas Carol' a Dickens classic, now too religious for school.

A high school principal canceled a dramatic performance of Charles Dickens classic "A Christmas Carol," partly because he feared it would raise questions about the place of religion in public schools.

Is this a principal with another agenda?

'On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love gave to me':

"Unfortunately, Christmas has become a time of controversy over what can or cannot be done in terms of celebrating the holiday. In order to clear up much of the misunderstanding, the following twelve rules are offered": (compiled by attorneys for The Rutherford Institute)

Warning: The following post contains Christian Conservative views. Read at your own risk! If you don't agree, tell me what you think. If you do agree, tell me why you agree. If you don't care, then find another blog.

Been kinda a crazy week. First, this wonderful piece of technology we call a computer, has been on a stupid streak. Not on its own mind you, it has had help from those wonderful spyware programs, that will now find a brilliant way to infect your computer. If I have reboot once, I have rebooted a million (just a little exagerated) times. Second, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work, 'nuf said. Third, homework, homework, homework, homework, homework, 'nuf said. The one positive, is during the times the computer was tied up doing homework, I was able to do some reading. Of course I only read those brainwashing, right leaning, books and articles. Read about the 1st amendment, and how the mis-interpretation has been shoved down our throats. The only problem is, we are starting to vomit it back up. We have had enough. I have read about the manipulation of the media, and how Mrs. 'I'll be a Christian, if I need too' Clinton, tried to stifle the new media. The biggest problem she had was the big 'WWW'. She couldn't get her hands around it, and once that happened the truth started getting to the American people. I'll bring more specifics later in the week.

I hope everyone had a chance to watch 'Hannity and Colmes' tonight. It was a special program entitled 'Taking back America'. They talked about the 'Declaration', our Founding Fathers, and the reference of God. It was a good program, that should have shown the viewer just what we are up against. About the last 15 minutes of the program they took questions from the audience, and the very first lady that had the microphone, asked the perfect question

"Why should the 90% of us that believe in God, change to suit the 10% who don't"

What a great question. Since the school prayer decision in 1962, the 10% have been trying to take all references of God out of everything. To be honest, they have been fairly successful for a while. I know what some are going to say, 'They have been trying to protect the 1st amendment'. To that I say 'BOLOGNA'. They have been trying to make Christians a minority. Well from what I am seeing, 'YOU FAILED'. (tongue stuck out at the 10%) The American people seem to have awakened from their 'Rip Van Winkle' Slumber. My whole belief on this matter is:

"When God stops pouring out his blessings on this country, we are doomed"

As always my favorite anti-American organization the ACLU is being written about in WorldNetDaily.

Here is a nice commentary about the ACLU by Joseph Farah.

Another article.

'How the ACLU is destroying America using your money'

"If you want to stop the ACLU once and for all," adds WND Managing Editor David Kupelian, "you really must get this issue of Whistleblower. It's got the information you need to starve this organization of the money it needs to survive – namely, yours."

This is a stunning, in-depth, investigative story told for the first time in the December edition of WorldNetDaily's monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled "EXTORTION: How the ACLU is destroying America using your money."

If you don't want to get a yearly subscription to WND, you can order single copies. I highly suggest getting the December issue to find out the real truth and how to stop the ACLU.

2004-12-02T22:33:00.000-05:00

WARNING: The following is only a possibility in the future, it is not yet real.

Since the ACLU and their buddies are trying to get rid of the word Christmas, Christmas Carols and anything Religious in public this holiday season, why not develop another event. The annual December 25th ACLU worship ourselves day. It could include one day where everything the ACLU supports could be legal. What do you think, it could include such wonderful things as, Child Pornography, what about tax exemptions for Satanists, or even Legalized Prostitution. Don't forget my favorite, Legalized Drugs, oh what a glorious day it would be. You could get up on Christm..ACLU morning, and find under the tree that nice hash pipe you been wanting. Maybe even a gift certificate to that wonderful place down on main-street, 'Ms. Sleazebags place of fulfilment'. We could sing the following er..carols. 'Oh come all ye faithless', 'Silent Deadly Night'. Don't forget everyones down home favorite, 'Oh little town of Sodom and Gomorrah'.

You know if things keep going the way they are going and the ACLU and buddies keep getting their way, this day could be a possible reality. We will have to pray, worship and sing praises in a cold dark hidden room. Please don't let this happen. Our Children do not deserve this. Please read my post entitled, ACLU (The Great Deceiver)... and take action. Christmas will not be protected for future generations if we do not do something. Please take action.

This following story : 'Christmastime event is a no-Christian zone'

is just one small example of what is happening this Christmas.

In the latest skirmish over Christmas in America, a Christian group is not allowed to participate in Denver's annual Parade of Lights, because church members sought to sing yuletide hymns and proclaim a "Merry Christmas" message on their float.

Yet it will include the following.

However, the event, now in its 30th year, will include homosexual American Indians, Kung Fu artisans, belly dancers and, of course, Santa Claus.

Can't forget them belly dancers!!!

The members of the Christian group do have a plan.

"members of his church will be walking the parade route an hour before it starts."
"We're going to sing Christmas carols to people on the street," he told WND. "We're not promoting a boycott."

The group has decided not to get this into court or to boycott. I commend them for their effort and the sacrifice they are making by walking the parade route an hour before it starts and singing carols. They only thing I disagree with them on is, I would boycott, I would protest, and I would take it to the highest court. I would make this a front page story, for all the world to see. We are in a battle and we need to fight.

Some of my most recent readings have included the study of the phrase 'Separation of Church and State', and how the 1st amendment has been twisted to bring us to this point in history. My future posts will include some extensive discussion on how this all started, and how some activist judge changed our world with his decision.

Even Faithmouse is in disbelief

Pull the plug on the ACLU...

2004-11-30T06:15:00.000-05:00

Nice article by Joseph Farah:

"For instance, when the ACLU takes a city to court claiming a Christmas display violates the Establishment Clause, if the municipality loses, the city's taxpayers are often forced to pay ACLU attorneys. This law now creates an incentive for the ACLU to file ever more challenges of this kind. Do you want to know why the ACLU layers file these ridiculous lawsuits by the dozens? Because they get paid to do it – by you."

These guys are smiling all the way to the bank. Make sure you read the full commentary.

Anniversary of the UN vote on resolution 181...

2004-11-28T21:23:00.000-05:00

This BlogBurst piece is cross-posted by participating websites, to commemorate a milestone in Israel's history. The list of the participating sites is appended at the end of this post.

November 29, 2004:
Anniversary of the UN vote on Resolution 181

Today is the anniversary of the UN vote on resolution 181, which approved the partition of the western part Palestine into a predominately Jewish state and a predominately Arab state. (It is vital to recall that the UN partition plan referred to western Palestine, to underscore that in 1921 the eastern part was ripped off the Jewish National Home by the British Government and handed over to the then Emir Abdullah.)

The partition plan was approved by 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions. The 33 countries that cast the “Yes” vote were: Australia, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Byelorussia, Canada, Costa Rica, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, France, Guatemala, Haiti, Iceland, Liberia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Sweden, Ukraine, Union of South Africa, USSR, USA, Uruguay, Venezuela. (Among other countries, the list includes the US, the three British Dominions, all the European countries except for Greece and the UK, but including all the Soviet-block countries.)

The 13 countries that chose the Hall of Shame and voted “No” were: Afghanistan, Cuba, Egypt, Greece, India, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, Yemen. (Ten of these are Moslem countries; Greece has the special distinction of being the only European country to have joined the Hall of Shame.)

The ten countries that abstained are: Argentina, Chile, China, Colombia, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Honduras, Mexico, United Kingdom, Yugoslavia.

On November 30, 1947, the day following the vote, the Palestinian Arabs murdered six Jews in a bus making its way to Jerusalem, and proceeded to murder another Jew in the Tel-Aviv - Jaffa area. This was a prelude to a war that claimed the lives of 6,000 Jews, or 1% of the total Jewish population in 1948. This toll is the per capita equivalent of today’s Canada losing 300,000 lives, or the US losing 3,000,000.

The object of the war, launched by the Arabs in the former Palestine and the armies of Egypt, Tansjordan, Syria and Lebanon (with help from other Arab countries), was to "throw the Jews into the sea".

As the partition map indicates, however, rather than annihilate the Jewish population, the Arabs ended up with less territory than they would have gained by peaceful means. In addition to the bloodshed in nascent Israel, immediately after the UN vote, Arabs attacks their Jewish neighbours in a number of Arab countries, the murders in Syria’s Aleppo being the best known. Bruised and bleeding, Israel prevailed nonetheless. May our sister-democracy thrive and flourish.

Atheists sue to stop Christian mentoring...

2004-11-27T23:17:00.000-05:00

Here’s another group Freedom From Religion Foundation trying to put a stop to something good. Here’s what the group has to say:

"First Amendment violations are accelerating," says the group's website. "The religious right is campaigning to raid the public till and advance religion at taxpayer expense, attacking our secular public schools, the rights of nonbelievers, and the Establishment Clause.

The group it is trying to stop is MentorKids USA.

Originally called Phoenix MatchPoint, the group changed its name last January to MentorKids USA. It has a long and successful track record in mentoring children in trouble with the law, who have dysfunctional family backgrounds, have been physically or sexually abused or who are involved with drug or alcohol abuse. To date, MentorKids USA has helped over 500 kids.

As always here is a group that is helping young kids, and some so called 'protect the 1st amendment' group is trying its best to do away with it. Could it Jealousy since it is such a success??

Fortunately the Supreme Court sees it another way:

William Rehnquist, current chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, says this view put forth by the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the ACLU and similar groups is a fiction and mockery of the true meaning of the First Amendment.

As always somewhere in a story like this the ACLU always seems to surface.

This is just another reason as to why I am on a mission to rid us of the ACLU. I am only one voice, but with your help, we can make it happen. Please consider the fact that the ACLU is on a mission to take away all that is good in this country. I suggest you read my first post entitled (ACLU (The Great Deceiver) . Sign the petitions and help with the fight.

Keep 'Leaning Right'

Hey Scott is this what you mean by: "The ACLU is fighting to preserve civil liberties in this country. Keeping the government secular is a fundamental tenet of American freedom."

The Mount Soledad controversy... "Phillip Paulson is the atheist who has mounted a 15-year legal battle - with help from the American Civil Liberties Union - to remove the cross. The structure has stood on Mount Soledad for 50 years."

Read the Story for yourself.

The ACLU only has to threaten and our everyday way of life gets changed. It is only a matter of time before everything we know as good is no more. Don't let this happen.

I have 6 accounts to give away if anyone is interested. Leave me your name and e-mail address in the comments section.

ACLU (The Great Deceiver)...

2004-11-20T11:59:00.000-05:00

It is nice to feel almost normal again. I have been doing some reading over the past several days about, the ACLU, Boy Scouts, Constitution, Pentagon, etc. I have been wanting to see how everyone was responding to the ACLU's assault against the Boy Scouts. To my surprise there have been a couple of groups that have popped up my radar that are out to run the ACLU out of town. My purpose of this post is to let you know what my belief in the whole matter is and to try and convince you to do something about it, if you feel the same way.

The ACLU is one of the groups that is responsible for the moral decay of our country. Fortunately for us, I think the American People (most anyway) are beginning to wake up from the 40 year sleep it has been in. Remember Rip Van Winkle? The ACLU has been on a mission to take away what is so important to so many Americans, and we have stood by and let them do it. They claim they are looking out for our constitutional rights, but they are manipulating our rights, not looking out for them.

For decades now, the ACLU has worked to undercut the impact and influence of religious faith in American life.
Although they declare themselves defenders of tolerance - and cloak themselves in the Constitution, whose Bill of Rights forbids any law prohibiting the free exercise of religion - the ACLU, in fact, actively promotes intolerance when it comes to religion.
Among the "free exercises" the group opposes and would outlaw if they could:

The public singing of "Silent Night" and other Christmas carols.
Displays of nativity scenes, crosses, and other Christian symbols on public property.
The posting of the Ten Commandments in classrooms or courtrooms.
The words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance and "In God We Trust" on U.S. coins.
Chaplains in prisons and the military.
Prayer in classrooms, locker rooms, sports arenas, legislative assemblies, and at graduation exercises.
Census questions regarding an individual's religious affiliation.
Accreditation for science departments at Bible-believing Christian universities.
Voucher programs and tuition tax credits.
Public funding for Christian schools.
"Blue law" statutes.
Voluntary Bible reading in public schools ... even during free time or after classes.
Tax-exempt status for churches (though the ACLU favors this status for certain occult groups - and themselves).

Teaching "Monogamous Heterosexual Intercourse within Marriage" in Public Schools
Here are just a few examples of what the ACLU is really trying to accomplish via the litigation they perform in the name of liberty:
In Chicago's crime-racked inner-city housing projects, ACLU lawyers managed to stop drug searches ... saying that they violated the tennants' constitutional rights.
In Mississippi, the organization secured a court order against student-led prayer in public schools -while in New Jersey they won a ruling banning any official prayer by any individual at any public high school graduation.
In Idaho, the ACLU had restrictions on abortion funding declared unconstitutional ... and in Virginia, defeated a bill requiring teens to notify their parents before getting an abortion.In fact, nationwide, the ACLU claims to "do more litigation" in support of abortion than any other organization in the country.
The ACLU also claims major credit for the U.S. Supreme Court decision to strike down the Communications Decency Act, which would have restricted the display and availability of pornographic materials on the Internet.

It should be easy to see by the information above that the ACLU is not looking out for our Nations best interest. They only have their own agenda in mind and that is to destroy everything that has made our country good. I am taking an active role in trying to run the ACLU out of town. Please join me in helping fight and retake our God given rights that have been taken away. We must stand against this EVIL together. Here how:

First: Educate yourself. I have listed several sites, (including a link to the ACLU) that should give you some excellent information.

ACLU

Stop the ACLU

Reclaim America

WND

Ears to Hear.

Second: Sign these petitions. Our voices must be heard.

Center for Reclaiming America.

Stop the ACLU.

Laptop Lobbyist

Third: Tell your relatives, friends, co-workers, etc. Get involved in the community. You can get a community pack from 'The Center for Reclaiming America'. Lets put an end to our 40 year sleep. It is time to wake up and start fighting back for what we believe in.

Here's hoping that you have a great 'Right' day!!!

New Header...

2004-11-18T01:56:00.000-05:00

I made my first attempt at changing the header. Please leave some comments good or bad.
I've been doing some reading since I heard about the ACLU's plight to hurt the Boy Scouts. You might not think that is not so, well believe it. It makes me totally furious not only at the ACLU, but the Judge that did not throw it back in there face. Anyway this is what my next post will be about, and I think I can come up with a good argument.

'Almost' Religious holidays in the State of Alabama...

2004-11-16T21:14:00.000-05:00

I still not quite 100%, but I figured I would muster up enough strength to write this post. I actually got the idea after reading the post, Alabama? Noooo, of course...not... on Chases blog 'Wide Awake: Notes On Life' .
I'm an Alabama boy myself, born and raised, lived there all my life until 1995, then I moved to Iowa.
Before I moved to Iowa, I lived in a small rural town about 40 minutes west of Tuscaloosa. Chases post reminded me of a couple of days in the state, that are 'Almost' Religious.

First: The Opening day of deer season. I can remember well, when opening day was approaching, camouflage was the 'in' color. Unfortunately I wasn't a deer hunter, (I took up golf instead), and was the overwhelming minority during this time. I would listen to deer hunting stories for hours, before the season approached, and the closer it got, the taller the tales. It is something I miss. I miss seeing those four-wheelers covered in red clay, a bunch of guys gathered at the kwik stop, with a deer in the back of the truck, talking about exactly how he was able to bag the trophy buck. So Chase your post on, ogling a gun in a church parking lot, is not surprising to me. In fact deer hunting was one of the topics of conversation before church was in session.

Second: Now this second 'Almost' religious holiday means more to me than any deer hunting story, the holiday has some deep roots in me. I am referring to the matchup once a year of the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Auburn Tigers. I have been watching Alabama football all my life. My very first memories of the Tide was when Scott Hunter and Johnny Musso played for the 'Bear'. I remember well that Scott Hunter could run the wishbone offense better that anyone around. The yearly matchup against Alabama and Auburn compares to no other rivalry in the nation. I know some will disagree, but I have been watching Big 10 football for 10 years and nothing is even close. Until you actually view the rivalry first hand inside the state, you cannot understand. It is one day, you can get a good parking spot at any Wal-Mart in the state. I remember back in my younger days, I was making a trip back home through Birmingham, unfortunately it was the day of the game. I was going down Highway 59, this was before 459 was built, that now takes you around Birmingham. Hwy 59 takes you through downtown. Other than a few travelers passing through the state, I was all alone on the road, it was truly amazing. My favorite memory of the Alabama and Auburn game was the Van Tiffin kick.

With six ticks left on the clock, Alabama's Van Tiffin put his leg into a 52-yard field goal. The football sailed over the crossbar on the Alabama end of the stadium.

What the caption failed to mention, is the prior play before, an Alabama receiver drug an Auburn defender halfway across the field to stop the clock with six seconds left. It also fails to mention this kick was against the wind. What a great feeling to see it clear the uprights. Alabama win 25-23.

Now I will say this. I think Auburn has the best team in the country. And if, that's a big if, if they beat Alabama on Saturday, deserve a shot a National Championship. Even though I would hate to hear it from my brother-in-law. I said earlier that they have the best team in country, not necessarily in the State of Alabama. I know it shows on paper that the Tide is outmanned, but don't count us out. If Pennington has the game of his life (he is definitely due) and our #1 rated defense in the country can keep the Tigers off the scoreboard, then we have a shot. When these teams meet up, you can throw the records out the window. And if you think the Auburn faithful are not taking this game seriously, then just ask them.

I have been to several of these games, and the intensity is unmatched. To be sitting in Bryant-Denny stadium as the Tide takes the field, with The Million Dollar Band, playing 'Hey Alabama' in the background, it will give you chills. At that point in time you hate everything that is orange and blue. Anyway, I could go on and on reminiscing, you would probably get bored before you finish the post, if you haven't gotten bored already. Thanks Chase for the post, it did bring back a few memories of 'Sweet Home Alabama'.

So if you need to do some early Christmas shopping this weekend and have the time to drive to the state of Alabama, you should be able to get front row parking. Not because your out early shopping, but because the 'Iron Bowl' has commenced.

Roll Tide Roll Tide Roll Tide Roll Tide Roll Tide Roll Tide.
