Time To Engage God's (America's) Enemies
It has been said that all that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to stand by and do nothing. It's time for Christians to pull our heads out of the sand and take a stand.
One man in California has the Supreme Court of this land now reviewing whether the phrase "under God" should be removed from our Pledge of Allegiance. The Chief Justice of State of Alabama cannot have a display of the Ten Commandments on courthouse property, despite that they are commonly acknowledged to be the basis for all of Western Law. A high school in Louisiana is being sued by the ACLU for saying prayers before football games.
The Liberal Secular Extremists cite the mythical "wall of separation" clause... which appears nowhere in our Constitution.
This is a war, and it is a war to remove every mention of God from every corner of American public life. The goal here is not to enforce our Founders' intent in having written the Constitution, rather it is to eradicate the single source of goodness, truth, and justice (and all of our Constitutionally listed rights...!) the world has in its possession... the Holy Word of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
If indeed our Rights as enumerated in our Constitution are inalienablethat is, cannot be taken from usbecause, as our founders wrote, they are granted to us by God the Creator Himself, what praytell becomes of those "Rights" once God is forbidden His rightful place... or even any place... in our society or Government?
If the Christians in America, a nation founded by Christians upon the solid rock of the Word of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, do not fight back with everything God has blessed us with, then we are giving victory to an evil which intends to consume us. We are allowing the immoral to dictate the terms to the moral, and that is then game, set, and match.
There is far more at stake here than whether Washington was a Deist, or whether one sentence from Jefferson's letter to some guy in Connecticut should be used to supersede and reinterpret our entire Constitution. These are not valid arguments, and The Library of Congress has extensive documentation available online which dispels any such deceit.

For this war to have gotten to the advanced stage where it now sits on our doorstep and snarls at us like the Hounds of Hell unleashed is the fault not of the minions of Satan who merely do the bidding of their vile master, rather it is the fault of every Christian in this once God-fearing nation who has sat idly by and hoped it would go away.
It is not going to go away. It is coming for us... in our homes, our schools, our places of work and our places of worship. It is time to take a stand and speak the Truth. Then speak It again. And again.
Inasmuch as this conflict, for the time being, remains a war of ideas and ideology, it is still possible to fight it just by speaking out, by letting the Holy Spirit within us move our hearts and tongues to take a vocal and unrelenting stand for what is right.
Whether our discourse in this matter offends some Muslims or Krishnas is not at issue. It is, in fact, a non-issue, and has no place in our deliberations. It is a diversion concocted by those who hate God.
The only issue here is whether our discourse offends God. We can pray that it lifts Him up in praise and glorifies Him, for that in the only way that we will succeed in our quest.
We must raise an outcry that reaches not only to the ACLU, not only to our schools, not only to the courts, not only to the Congress of the United States...
...but one which reaches straight to Heaven, for it is there, and there alone, where all hope for mankindand Americalies.
May God give us His will, the strength to fight this good fight.

"Try reading some real history instead of finding LIES AND DISTORTIONS from on-line skeptics, revisionists and atheists. Do you know what a "Primary Source" is? I'll bet you don't!"
Like your John Jay source that proves he was nothing more than a religious bigot?
Your denial of fact doesn't change fact.
Left.....left......left-right-left!
hup 2..3..4..

To: exmarine
Your intelligent reply (post 179) where you daydream of beating me up in your USMC unit proves that I've won. Violence is always the sanctuary of the desparate and those who are devoid of fact.
You lose. I win.
Hup 2 3 4!!
Keep on hiking!

I think you are 12 years old, aren't you? You sound like a kid "neener neener neener". I can't bring myself to sink to your level anymore. I proved your ignorance - that's enough more me. Decl. is just a fiery document eh? ROFL!
To: Blzbba
I never threatened violence - more slancer from the little kid. I would simply put you on perpetual mess duty. :) work you 16 hours a day...

To: exmarine
"Decl. is just a fiery document eh? ROFL"
While you're 'rollin on the floor', please PLEASE tell me how the Declaration has any legal basis in today's courts.
PLEASE? Can you? Can you type anything that is historically factual?
Look - I know it's not fair to be arguing with someone who's had barely a high school education -- and probably at a public school, at that. I apologize for having an intelligent discussion with an unarmed exmarine.
At ease, soldier...at ease.
Please attempt to tell me how the Declaration has any legal bindings/effects/etc. in today's judicial system.
Remember - the Declaration was written 13 years or so before the Constitution...before the USA was even 'U'. That's the only hint I'll give ya, private.

You don't even know what makes a Christian a Christian, so your comment is bizarre. Please leave this to the Christians - a Christian hater should not concern himself with this issue.
Get lost, clown.. Take your hate to the back room..
I was confirmed a Catholic over 50 years ago.. And am arguably still a better one than you are a 'christian', -- whichever bizarre sect you claim to be..

History lesson's over. Your knowledge has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. Go educate yourself. I'm not your sugar daddie.
To: tpaine; exmarine
tpaine, remember that one of exmarine's heroes is Catholic-hating John Jay. He may (note to exmarine - I did not say 'IS' here) be one of those Protestant christians who feel that Catholics aren't really Christians. Based on his other attempts at intelligence, this wouldn't be surprising.

I don't care what you call yourself. To me, your just an anti-christian bigot humanist blackguard.
To: exmarine
Just as I thought. You have no idea of what the Declaration of Independence is about, nor its lack of relevance to modern law.
Hint: Everything your country preacher says on Sunday ain't true!
Lights out, private. Revelie at 0500. TEN HUT!

"I am a Christian Constitutionalist with a B.A. in History (supplemented with a considerable life experience) and a decided interest in ethics, philosophy and politics. My values and priorities are dictated by absolute moral principles that flow from our wonderful Creator and which are found in the Holy Scriptures. I served 9 years in the United States Marine Corps from 1977-1986 and was honorably discharged with the rank of Sergeant. I am a true patriot and I recognize that the noble principles found in the American Constitution are the Law of the Land, and that the Constitution is NOT a living breathing document that evolves, any more than its undergirding moral principles evolve. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, and I believe that the Holy Scriptures are the propositional communication from God to man. I am not ashamed of the gospel as it is the power of God unto salvation."
Our boyo ~claims~ a lot, above...
But then belies it with every bigoted, anti-constitutional post he makes..
Weird..

Why should I say a Socialist pledge to a symbol whether it has 'under God' in it or not? Did the men who established this nation of states say it? Scrap the whole pledge.

Just as I thought. You have no idea of what the Declaration of Independence is about, nor its lack of relevance to modern law. You have no shame. I already exposed your ignorance about the Decl. of Independence - it is organic law in the U.S. Code - simple fact. You lost the point! Why do you bring it up again - are you trying to cover up your ignorance by diversion or do you want me to twist the knife a little? You are a moron when it comes to history - now get lost. This TRULY is my last post to you.
