I wish you could too. Only problem, the Democrats I know would not believe any part of it, so it would be a waste of your good money.
I pray that their locked minds will open enough to let a little truth in. Only then will we succeed in defeating these barbaric heathens.
Still, if it isn't in God's plan, we will fail, no matter what.
Nicely done post, thanks.
My own addenda:
Those who do not practice abortion (e.g., Muslims, Latin-American Catholics, etc.), are poised to take over via sheer numbers, so abortion may soon not be a problem. Unfortunately, it will come at the cost of the ideas upon which this country was founded. Neither Latin America nor the Muslim world has a history of setting up governments even close to that of the US of yore.
I expect that we'll soon find out. We've arrived at one of those watersheds of human history.

Actually I have been having a good hard think about Latin American imigration. I have not distilled it all yet.
On one hand I think immigration as it is currently practiced: The Latino coming here and undermining the social fabric by holding onto Spanish and being encouraged to suck at the public trough is a definite liability.
On the other hand, America has been enriched by the infusion of almost every immigrant group in it's history prior to the PC corruption of the system. The immigration of a hard working, Christian group can never hurt us.
Who can say. There are a good many Latino's earning citizenship in Iraq and Afganistan. An infusion of good fearing people may do us good.
ok, that was a bit too heady for lowbrow ole me :)
oh, I don't think so, pal.
good one!
they have no concept of honor, and no connection with reality. what you are dancing around is that Islam, and in particular ARAB (unmodified) Islam, is a culture of death which induces psychosis in those who are immersed in it too long.
Well said.
I do believe the most good we can do is pray.
But I believe God also watches how much we put legs to our prayers.
And, I believe somehow, His plans can be achieved regardless of how much earnest effort we put into doing good. In any case, it's always the best choice to do what good we can . . . lighting a candle vs cursing the darkness . . . except when binding satan's forces etc.!
Thanks.
Great article and goes along with what many have been preaching for some time now, gives me hope. I sure hope that lib on fox news reads this, "Al Comes." People are going to believe only what they will until they are convinced otherwise with truth and fact and even then some won't. America is in danger and that is a fact.
Wonderful...Just fantastic! I didn't realize it was written bt a Freeper. I looked to see which media outlet had printed something so sane and prescient!
Well, said to you.
Very true. I also believe it is possible with prayer to change God's mind. Providing the legs are strong enough.
Thanks, for the thought.
Much appreciate your kind comments. I agree!
Blessings,
That just about sums it up. Great essay, thanks for your efforts!
Wow. For our sakes, I'm glad you "got it out". I am sending this on to others......maybe even a liberal or two.
God bless you.
"Fear of bannishment prevents further dot connection"
No, you are making sense. Please go on...
Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed reading your analysis. Not exactly light reading, or cheerful reading.
Your logic would be considered sound by many professors. But I can't disagree more. War is a major factor on culture, IMHO.
"If you look at the 100 years war in Europe , nothing fundamentally changed. England was still England, France was still France."
England, through use of the longbow, skewering so many well armored French knights, gained a sense of self worth and began to value the common man. The concept of the right to bear arms was entirely the result of war. This is actually a great example of the opposite point. The 100 Year War, combined with all the other wars that England fought, ended the Feudal System in England. Wars involving gunpowder merely sped up the process the longbow had begun. England became a world leader, in part, because it was ahead of all the other European nations, culturally. And the Brits had a manifest destiny to be Europe's greatest empire, thanks to the battles the longbow was used in.
The importance of a strong navy began to slowly dawn upon them. The importance of unity was definitely thrust upon them, their lords seeing the need to empower their king with enough resources to keep a more competitive army out in the field.
"With the American Revolution nothing fundamentally changed. England's colonial strength was diminished but England didn't change. America still spoke English, still embraced a Western style culture and still considered England out cousins."
America's creativity was unleashed. The patent system generated 90% of the world's inventions. And, if we had remained a colony, England may have used military might to prolong slavery. The Brits tended to aid the Confederacy prior to Lincoln's Emancipation Proclomation, which might never have been made. Cheap labor tends to stunt innovation.
"The multitude of petty wars between the nations of Europe for 1000 years did not fundamentally change the society."
If Catholicism had won out in the wars of Europe, Christianity would have become more corrupt than ever. Religious monopoly is the root of corrupt governments. I would say the cultural differnces between Mexico and the US are stark.
And when you look at the culture shock of a place that turns Islamic, the transformation is abominable.
Well, that is as far as I've gotten so far. FReegards....
[Working my way down...]
"It took the influx of greater barbarians, the Mongols to sweep Western Europe clean of Islam."
Not in Spain. I think your point is that the Mongels helped weaken Islam. Or maybe you mean't "non-Moorish" Islamics. You mentioned the Moors up to the 1400s earlier. So, this is a typo of some kind.
