The way to fight back is to ignore the howls and screams of the demonic left and still hold our prayer vigils in full view of everyone until they make it illegal to do so- The problem is that the right are being intimidated by the demonic left into silence-

While I’ll agree things are changing and that the Democrats have welcomed the militant anti-God types, I still have faith that this is still the most Christian country on the planet.

The attitude you’re seeing from the left, mocking those that are Christian (they don’t target other religions), has been the norm in Europe for a long time, decades in fact.

I’ve noticed some religious statements on old TV shows.


So true, and they just leave religion out of the shows, they openly mock Christianity.

[[It hit me pretty hard when I started watching old TV shows on Amazon Prime. God and Christianity permeates the standard TV fare of the day.]]

Yup- we watch old TV shows from the 60’s 70’s 80’s- even the 40’s and God and prayer and church etc are frequent themes in the stories- as are moral values and lessons- Where they say their prayers- thank God for Food etc- shows like the rifleman, cisco kid, etc- where Christian living is often espoused as a triumph to evil- it’s just shocking how far we’ve devolved

Exactly! School shootings aren’t a gun control issue - they are a lack of respect for life issue.

[[It occurred to me that you would never see such a scene in a TV show made today.]]

Sad isn’t it? Hollywood kicked God out and now kids are exposed to real crap these days- no wonder they have no respect for anyone anymore- the old shows taught kids how to be respectful and obedient- todays shows teach kids how to back sass their elders and people in authority

I think it more like he was a drug/ alcohol baby - he seems to have the facial features of a person with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.

When a populace is "okay" with killing babies within mothers' wombs ... ... why should anything else surprise us?

The hypocrisy of the left is staggering.

They champion abortion and abortion rights, They are in favor of murdering the pre-born.

They support euthanasia as if *quality of life* is the determining factor in whether someone lives or dies.

Yet someone shoots up a school and murders those already born and they scream for more safety and stricter gun controls.

“Can you imagine a show today, in which characters are shown attending religious services????”

They’d do it if it were a Muslim service.

No other.

The kind of society that pays Joy Behar, her colleagues, and her audience to ridicule Christians for communicating with God.

Leave It To Beaver actually has numerous mentions of God and mentions of the boys going to church although it never shows them in church. I think during the time period of the show it was just assumed that most people went to church at least occasionally.

Hugh Beamont was an ordained minister. I don’t know how much influence he had over scripts but most of the advice he gave were grounded in scripture - just not given in scripture & verse form.

So that such laws would a court challenge which would mean a trip to the USSC.

Also, are they going to drag them off as they bow their heads in prayer? Now, that, I’d like to see. Don’t let them get away with fear tactics. Pray if you want to.

I would start with repeal of the gun free zones in schools.

Gun free zones are for suckers
