Thank you oh so very much for the ping to this wonderful essay-post, dear Mind-numbed Robot! And thank you, dear WXRGina, for posting it!

But, the bottom line of why this message irks me is the fact that I know what we all deserve, and some of you will not like to hear it. We all deserve death. Yes, death. Whether we like it or not, and whether we even accept it or not, we are accountable to our Creator. God is. And, we owe him our very existence, because we cannot take a breath without receiving it from Him. All we have comes from Him (and we think we earned it on our own). He made us and all we see, and He has a standard of perfection that none of us can achieve. His law requires perfect obedience, but not one of us could ever perfectly obey, and God’s penalty for breaking His law is death, which is eternal separation from Him.

So very true!

IMHO the "I deserve" mentality springs from the "me" generation. In their view, "it's all about meeeeee." "The universe revolves around meeeeee." "Looking out for number one" and so.

Successful marketers do not sell drills, they sell holes. Why? Because that's what people want.

It works.

The disease is not in marketing but in the "me" lie. And that was the appeal to Eve in the Garden of Eden in the first place!

Man is woefully blind and stupid. Because he is self-aware, he concludes that self is what all that there is is all about. How dumb!

We cannot sense how fast we are moving through the cosmos or the proportion of cosmos to quantum or relativistic time. We cannot see over the horizon or behind our backs or into the past or future or even a closed box. Worse, no matter how much we love someone we can never truly understand him. We can never see through his eyes.

What idiots we are when we believe that it's all about meeeeee.

America turned its collective back on God several decades ago. Those among us who despise God and Christ have worked hellishly and feverishly to force even the mention of the Lord’s name out of the public square, and those of us who love the Lord allowed it to happen with hardly a fight.

Like abortion, the removing of God's Name from publicly funded schools and then from most other publicly funded venues was done by judicial fiat not referendum or enactment of law. That's how insidious it was.

And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place. Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God. - Deut 12:3-4

We brought the curse on ourselves and oh how terrible the consequence. The more God is ignored the more evil prevails, e.g. abortion, elevation of homosexual behavior, murder, oppression.

Just look at the game shows from the 50s, it was very common for people to speak about Jesus, God, Scriptures, Bible stories. And they were reverent.

But now, the only way God's Name is acceptable in the media for public consumption is when it is spoken as an expletive. And they gasp in horror when His Name is uttered in reverence out-of-school, e.g. Tebow.

The Supreme Court has overturned evil decisions in the past, e.g. Dred Scott. And recently, they rejected the Obama administration and sided 100% with religious institutions' rights to hire and fire based on religion.

Moreover, a recent decision in the 7^th (Kaufman v McCaughtry) determined that atheism is a religion. This means by removing God's Name from publicly funded institutions, the Supreme Court inadvertently established atheism as the religion of the land.

I pray urgently and earnestly that a case will come before the Supreme Court making that point and that the court will be ready to overturn or at least chip away at their own past, evil decision so that Freedom of Religion instead of Freedom from Religion can be re-established in our beloved country.

God's Name is I AM!
