‘God is watching, and make no mistake, we reap what we sow.’

God is watching, but is biding his time to do anything about it...? I’m sure that comes as great comfort to those already aborted souls...

That’s exactly what they’re doing, redefining history, treating down Christian values and on it goes. Also, they’re turning away from dogs and more people are embracing cats. God help us all.

Most people don’t want to talk about a solution because it’s way out of their comfort zones. There’s only one solution. People turn their hearts to God, and clean house.

Regarding the Socialist/Communist Utopia that the left wants:

I was talking with a good friend a few days ago. She has a terminal illness and really is getting the best care available. She was saying that Nationalized Healthcare would be a good idea (she has private Health insurance). I told her that she had no idea how much care she wouldn’t be getting, if we did had Socialized Medicine. I didn’t want to be cruel, but I did want her to know that Socialized Medicine is the shiny object with destruction behind it.

The Left promises Utopia, but would deliver tyranny. I pray that the people awaken to it’s true nature.

Cats are independent thinkers asserting their God given liberties. Dogs serve the collective.

I love both however.

Couple what Prager has postulated with the downward trajectory of the intelligence of the average American on the street and it's obvious that we're really screwed.

Just a couple of photos of what we see everyday in America today.

RoosterRedux: I will never understand the conservative love affair with Dennis Prager. He is not a conservative but an old time liberal who seems conservative because we've moved so far Left. If you will notice, he always distinguishes between "liberalism" and leftism and always defends the former.

He is also a very poor religious model. How many conservatives are aware that Prager is not Orthodox, that he is essentially a rationalist who has re-written the Bible (The Rational Bible) to take out all the stuff he doesn't like? You know, like that great guy Thomas Jefferson?

... America is in crisis. We’re not going to last. Who cares why. We need to be thinking of a solution.
———-

I agree but the temptation is to come down hard on the leftists, when all we should do is enforce the law. Make them martyrs is exactly what they want.

However we can’t be afraid to enforce the laws. And that is what they want in order to cause an over reaction on our part.

I love Dennis Prager’s writings and have sometimes thought of him as a Saul on his way to being renamed Paul.

...and don't get me started about the half-caff soy latte replacing the good ole cup of black coffee.

The question is, where are we on that circle?

Prager is definitely a conservative, but then as many have pointed out conservatism hasn't conserved anything. Decades ago Buckley cried "Stop", but the best we could muster is "Caution. Slow Down".

If empires are doomed to failure, then it appears the American Empire is on its inevitable descent. Calls to a more conservative political philosophy or a religious awakening will merely slow the fall.

We may eventually get a truly conservative and religious political order but only after a revolution, a collapse, and the imposition of some type of monarchy or tyranny. The seeds of destruction were not sown in the 60's or even in the 20's after WWI. They were sown much earlier, maybe even as early as the Reformation or even going back to the Renaissance when Europe was reintroduced to the rest of the world and started having doubts about the one true way to God.

If you asked the hordes that are doing the rioting, looting, and general mayhem, which following word do you think you would be least to hear as describing their faith?... or any politician pushing this crap? Think carefully about your reply. Eternity is a long time.

Atheist
Agnostic
Catholic
Jewish

Up here in northern Alberta, it’s socially unacceptable to be caught drinking the soy or things like that. I don’t know how Starbucks maintains a presence either as it’s social suicide to be caught at one heh.

My redbone pup ate two kittens last night and I don’t know if I’m supposed to be mad about it. On one hand poor cats, on the other hand he’s supposed to hunt cats. It’s a catch 22.
