What I am saying is that Christians should oppose any & all efforts @ the federal level to have the government involved in these issues. This is why our State & local governments are so important: THEY are the ones who really speak w/ the voice of the people, & they should be doing the legislating....not the feds! The feds have no Constitutional role here, because its powers are limited. Please read what James Madison wrote in Paper #45 of The Federalist Papers, which you can read HERE

Well, secularism (read anti-Christian) has become a religion too and this is what is being forced down kids at public schools and colleges who then go onto graduate and enter the influential professions of law, medicine, politics, and the media.

I agree with your perspective — the federal government has become a monster — a politically correct monster stomping on our religious rights. We must fight that monster, armed with states’ rights and Madisonian arguments as necessary.

Unfortunately, too many Christians say that we should avoid politics altogether. Don’t speak up. Don’t organize. Be meek and mild. Don’t be like those obnoxious rednecks and rightwing ayatollahs like Falwell and Dobson.

But how in tarnation do we stop the liberal-media juggernaut without organization, strategy, and tactics?

I say it again, if we don’t fight, we get rolled over.
