[EternalVigilance]

Haiti is a nation that as a body rejected Christ, and openly chose witchcraft. Their tropical paradise became a barren wasteland full of starving babies.

The other half of the same island, known as the Dominican Republic, chose Christ; and remains a lush and productive oasis to this day.

That little island is one of the best illustrations of the importance of whom a society chooses to serve imaginable.

Doing strange things with chickens and blowfish no doubt does the Haitians little good, but the real root of their nation's misery has been a traditional and total disdain for property rights and an absolute contempt for free speech.

All bad things thrive -- from mumbo jumbo to marxism, not just melodramatic superstition -- when those fundamental rights are denied.
