Roe Vs Wade Not The Real Issue Needing Overturned.

If you ask the media what the biggest issue driving Evangelicals in the area of politics, most sources would tell you it was a candidates stand on abortion or perhaps gay marriage. Of course that is what the liberal media wants us to believe, because there is an even bigger issue yet to be sufficiently addressed that could lure thousands of new Evangelical voters to the ballet boxes in November 2008, and that issue is protecting Christians from losing their First Amendment rights in the false name of separation of church and state. For far too long we have allowed liberal courts and anti-theist judges to strip of our religious freedoms and remove any indication of the principles this country was founded on from our everyday lives.

Like the verse of an R.E.M song, “That’s me in the corner, that’s me in the spotlight, losing my religion.” Everyday in America our religious freedoms are stolen from us by atheists and anti-theists who scream about tolerance only to be intolerant of an evidence of theism in this country. There are those who were quick to attack Senator John McCain for saying that America is a Christian nation. But these same people can’t face the fact that, well McCain was partly right. While not all of our fore fathers were practicing Christians, they were all theists who believed in God or a higher power and whose reasons for emigrating from their homelands and forming this country were first and foremost to find shelter from religious persecution. In fact, the founders of our nation believed so strongly in either a God or a higher power that each state of these United States of America, has reference of said God or a higher power written into their individual state constitutions. Some states went a step beyond that and felt the need to include a reference to Christ on the document that was so sacred to those who signed it.

Separation of church of state was designed to prevent the federal government from enforcing one state sponsored religion, period, end of statement. It was never intended to remove God from the everyday lives of millions of believers and infringe up the rights of individuals, communities, organizations, districts or states to decide for themselves how to practice their own believes. It was not the intent of our forefathers to ban The Ten Commandments from our schools or courthouses. In fact, many early settlement schools taught The Bible in the classroom. And our courts set a standard practice of swearing in by placing ones hand upon the very book that is so sacred to Christians and swearing truth under penalty of perjury under God. Separation of Church and State was not a ploy or blueprint to discourage or punish those who chose to practice their religion in public. If a politician can preach his or politics in their street, and an entertainer can sing, dance, or play, then a believer must be allowed to preach, pray, sing, write about, teach and display teachings to or of his or her own God if he or she desires. Of course atheists and Anti-theists must also be free to practice their own religion or lack thereof in the same said manner. This is what equality is all about.

We cannot ban the Pledge of Allegiance from our schools. It is as much of a right of the school district to choose for its students to state the Pledge of Allegiance each morning, as it the right of those who choose not to recite it to peacefully protest. This is America; this is a democracy where our freedoms are supposed to be guaranteed. It’s about time that the media use their constitutional right to free speech and defend our own constitution. And along those same lines it’s about time that we as American’s and we as Christian Evangelicals stand up and tell the government with one loud and clear voice that cannot be ignored that we are tired of letting the government take from the people and put the decisions back where they belong and that is with the people.

We need to elect an Evangelical president that will seek out liberal lawmakers and send them packing to the unemployment lines. We need a president who will overturn laws that are intolerant to what we as Christians hold to be self evident. We need to stand in once voice and grab the whips from the hands of the slave drivers that are beating us into submission and drive out the liberal anti-theist lawmakers that are seeking to drive us and our beliefs from the public eye. Once we are free of religious persecution we need to shake off the pain of being old tired whipped dogs and start loving America and her people with the enthusiasm of a newborn puppy to its mother and its master so that we can ensure that this sort of persecution will never happen again.

We need to follow the example of Jesus Christ and retake the Great Commission, seeking not to force our beliefs upon this world, but only to seek out those in poverty, those in captivity, those that are in pain, as well as those that suffer from persecution and indignity, and show them the love of Jesus free from judgment or condemnation. We need to show them that Christ did not come here to persecute sinners or bring hellfire down upon their sinners. Christ came here to die for the forgiveness of all our sins, all sin being equal, regardless of race, religion, sex or color. As Christians it is our responsibility to preserve our way of life and our duty to love the world and set an example for the children of tomorrow. And it’s about time we started doing just that, starting with electing a president like Mike Huckabee that will defend the freedom of America as well the religious freedoms of everyone in America, even those that do not believe and will do so in a manner that every citizen and our forefathers who established our country would find fitting.

Double Standard? Who Really Should Be Outraged?

Jena, LA – Thousands rally in protest regarding the prosecution of five black juveniles who were initially tried as adults for second degree murder after beating a white teen to death. Hillary Clinton joined Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson in speaking out in what they call a “civil injustice” and unfair treatment.

But who really should be outraged here? Certainly the community of the small Louisiana town has a right to be upset over white teens not being charged for the hanging of nooses. Certainly the actions of these teens should not be tolerated and they deserve to spend some time in a juvenile correction facility. This is something that we can all understand.

Now let’s look at the other side of the story. What message do we send to our children when allow murder to go unpunished. Juvenile or not, black, white, red or blue, if you attack someone and that attack results in their death, then by all means you should be punished to the full extent of the law. And if you are capable of understanding right from wrong then you should be tried as an adult in a court of law. I feel the prosecutors did the right things in this case and the judge who sold out his position by giving in to pressure and reducing the sentence needs to be excused from his bench because as a judge you must interpret the law and act according. And legally any person that commits murder by any means should be responsible for his actions.

Congratulations Hillary Clinton, Mr. Sharpton, and Reverend Jackson for once again betraying the America system of justice. Your support of this racial bigotry, and make no mistake, your actions are just as bigoted as the boys who committed the initial crime, because you are saying its okay to kill a man or a woman as long as the motive is offense to a particular race, sex, religion, or creed.

Let me be clear for the Bible says both “Thou Shall Not Kill” and “Love Your Neighbor as You Love Yourself.” No man or woman should be forced to suffer discrimination. It’s sad that a hundred and thirty years after Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery there is intolerance and hatred that remains in the country, clearly on both sides. But its even a bigger blow to the Constitution that we may excuses for murder because the criminal who committed the crime claims racial motivation.

Huckabee Speaks For America's Rebublican, Not Washington's

Mike Huckabee could care less about the politicians in Washington's view of the Republican base. He picks his words carefully, not to impress the pollsters, but to convey the things of his heart to the people. He is truly a like guy, both funny and articulate, and yet remaining humble. He gets to the point of things without over simplifying. Mike Huckabee doesn’t want to change policies or legislation he wants to change America and this is clearly evident every time he steps up to the podium. It’s obvious that Mike Huckabee is prepared for the job of leading our great country, and his time as Governor of Arkansas, as well as the years he spent leading from the pulpit clearly show he knows how to get the job done.
When Huckabee speaks to the Republican base, he isn’t speaking to politicians or lobbyists playing games with Americas time and money in Washington. Well, that is unless you count the heartfelt admiration he shared with Senator McCain in praise of his years of military service. No when Governor Huckabee speaks he isn’t just looking into the camera and talking, and his words are meant for more than the cameras. Huckabee is proof that even though not every thing that glitters is gold, sometimes what doesn’t sparkle and shine is much more valuable. As I re-visited last night’s presidential debate, I saw a man that aside from his heated debate with Anti-Republican Ron Paul, spent most of the night making sure that his message was heard by individual Americans and their families all throughout this country. It’s as if he wasn’t on a stage in a university auditorium in New Hampshire but in every town and every church and school in America.

Clearly Mike Huckabee is both a man of vision and of passion. Not only does he care about America, but he cares about her honor too because he loves his country and its entire population as he loves his family. Huckabee reminds us that America is still “One Nation under God” and he enforces the need for America to once again lead by example. His no frills approach is refreshing, and his solutions are simple that, instead of band aids to stop the bleeding and assurances to look for resolution. Surely his father being a generator repair man has taught Mr. Huckabee that sometimes you can’t just turn a wrench or tighten the screws. No, Huckabee understands that some things that are broken have to be taken apart and re-built from scratch.

Huckabee, like the name of his hometown suggest, and not unlike another Arkansas governor turned president is America’s best hope. Huckabee knows that one cannot achieve success by bickering and mud slinging and wavering on his or her beliefs and he is prepared to move America forward with action and courage with God once again a part of this great nation. And that movement forward will become reality when the “Man from Hope” moves to an address on Pennsylvania Avenue.
