They Do Not All Turn Out Like Tim Tebow Saturday, Feb 6 2010 

Christianity and Family , , , , pressedpages 8:31 AM

One more day until the Super Bowl — and Tim Tebow’s pro-life ad. Focus on the Family’s advertisement celebrating the “choice” of a mother not to abort her unborn child which airs during the Super Bowl, is attracting heavy fire from the pro-abort contingency. Personalities such as Joy Behar of The View, and comedian Jimmy Kimmel try to persuade us with the asinine logic of, “they do not all turn out like Tim Tebow!”

Behar fears an unborn child may become a rapist-pedophile; therefore, the mother should have an abortion. Kimmel expresses his concern, though in a mocking manner, that the unborn child could turn out to be a worthless lazy bum. Whew, I am glad to know that! After 37 years of indiscriminant abortions — at any stage in a woman’s pregnancy — the world is obviously a safer place. Crime is on the decrease, prison populations have plummeted, and everyone born after 1973 are disciplined productive citizens — like Tim Tebow.

Kimmel and Behar’s arguments coincide with the banality of the pro-choice movement. It is not about choice, it is about abortion. In keeping with pro-choice dogma, given the choice to bear a child, or abort him or her, both of these eugenicists proclaim the only choice is abortion.

How pathetic and blind these people are. Statistically speaking, criminals, and lazy bums, are by far a small minority interspersed throughout our society. Therefore, from a strictly statistical perspective, of the over 50 million Americans aborted since 1973, more would turn out like Tim Tebow than the rapist-pedophile lazy bum from which Kimmel and Behar proclaim abortion has saved us.

I pray more pregnant women faced with the choice to complete the pregnancy or to abort, would give that child a chance and choose life.

Pamela Geller is a terrific writer with a clarity most anyone will appreciate. In link below, Geller brings to our attention an executive order signed by Obama at year’s end, 2009, that will detrimentally declassify records as young as 25 years old.

Obama’s audacity is not hope — it is the pure unadulterated destruction of the greatest nation in the history of man.

Melancon Castigates Vitter Over Landrieu Ammendment Sunday, Jan 3 2010 

Capitalism and Charlie Melancon and Communism and Health Care and Marxism and Socialism and welfare , , , , pressedpages 7:03 PM

Unsurprisingly, Rep. Charlie Melancon is castigating Senator David Vitter for not supporting an amendment in the Senate Health Care Bill that Senator Mary Landrieu prostituted herself to have put into it. Go figure! Landrieu proudly brags of her $300 Million pay-off — in the name of Louisiana — for her vote of a bill that will fundamentally transform our nation.

Melancon and Landrieu think like piranha. They see people held captive in poverty by the chains of welfare, and they do their best to see their victims stay there. If America’s poor were to wake up from the stupor that befuddles them, they would see that the very programs and promises made by the government will never satisfy.

The concept of private property, and individuals reaping the fruit of their labor, is fundamental to any free society. In fact, the eighth commandment clearly states, “Do not steal”. There is no qualification or exception to it — not even vote by majority. Theft by any other name is still theft, and that is what Vitter opposes.

Landrieu and Melancon do not understand that government’s job is not to provide equal things, but equal opportunity. Legalized theft, i.e. taxes, is Karl Marx’s central method of leveling the masses. In the name of “caring for the hurting”, the Statist takes from the producers, and gives to the moochers.

People who produce will stop producing if they are not able to keep the money they earned. Look at the late USSR. In 1917, the Communists made promises of bread, land, and peace — a utopia that only government could provide! However, in a few short years, after the “cleansing” of the country, massive famine consumed the nation. Hardship and shortages were the trademark of the implementation of Marxism on the unfortunate Russian populace.

Vitter is standing up for Louisianans, and, in so doing, for the nation. We do not need more back-room deals in Washington. We need statesmen who uphold the constitution. Melancon’s words reveal his bribability, whereas Vitter’s actions, thus far, show he puts principle before personal profit.

Three Worldviews Clamor for Dominance Wednesday, Dec 30 2009 

Christianity and Communism and Freedom and Islam and Liberty and Marxism and Muslim and Tyranny , , , , , , , , , , , pressedpages 8:30 AM

The three competing political/economic philosophies in the world today are Humanism, Islam, and Christianity. These opposing philosophies result in three very different outcomes, yet each has the goal of complete world domination.

Humanism exalts man as its ultimate authority, uses man’s words to direct it, and implements violent revolution to further it. Mao’s axiom “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun” summarizes how the Marxist-Leninist worldview overcomes all opposition. Revolutionaries view themselves as saviors of the world who must control every thought and action in order to achieve the promised utopia — meanwhile imprisoning, torturing, and killing anyone who resists. Accordingly, creativity is stifled, productivity stops, and prosperity is impossible.

Islam, with Allah as its god, establishes a militaristic theocracy that is brutal to its members through oppressive sharia law set forth in the Koran. War, or jihad, is at its very heart, and the oft-suicidal efforts of Islam’s members to kill their enemies are highly esteemed. Islam squelches the advancement of technology, industry, and invention wherever it prevails. Like Humanism, the consolidation of prosperity to the ruling class, forces the masses to suffer in abject poverty with no hope of improvement.

Finally, the Christian philosophy, using the Judeo-Christian Bible as its code of ethics, liberates societies to be free, productive, and unique. Biblical law protects private property, thus allowing people to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Members within a Christian society are able to choose in what manner and to what degree they want to prosper, and are given the liberty to succeed or fail.

The United States of America, founded on the Christian philosophy of politics and economics a mere 200 years ago, has advanced civilization throughout the earth farther and faster than ever before experienced by man. Unfortunately, our nation is drifting more and more away from the prosperity inducing Christian principles into the murky waters of Humanism, while cowering to the demands of Islam. Consequently, the so-called elites in government strip us of our freedom, while exempting themselves from their own tyranny. Thus, prosperity wanes.

It is the Christian political and economic philosophy of liberty for all, not just a few, which has made our country prosperous. We must refuse Humanism and Islam. We must uphold our constitution. We must return to our God — or we will perish like Rome before us.

 

Mexico City’s Big Mistake! Wednesday, Dec 23 2009 

Family and Homosexuality and Marriage , , , pressedpages 8:22 AM

Mexico City’s assembly voted the other day 39 – 20 to legalize gay marriage. No longer will marriage in that city be defined as “one man and one woman”, but “the union of two people”. How discriminatory!

First, and very disconcerting, is their limitation of marriage to a mere two people. On what basis does the assembly limit marriage to only two? Jeff, Sally, and Beverly, love each other madly — why not grant them the right to marry as well? Since the assembly is redefining marriage, they should include the union of groups of any number or combination to be truly non-discriminatory.

Second, why confine their definition to people only? What about those who live alone but have a pet they love? They should have the right to marry their pet, also! Moreover, animals should be aloud to marry each other — regardless of species, or quantity.

Under the guise of “political correctness” and “open mindedness”, the government officials of that city of approximately 20 million people have become fools. The recognition and legalization of homosexual marriage merely opens the door of what is to come. Eventually, all other combinations of people-to-animals-to-objects will clamor for their “right” not to be discriminated against, and they will be absolutely correct in demanding their recognition under the currently fluctuating definition of marriage.

This is the logical thought progression when man replaces God with the state. Man, who changes with the wind, is a poor substitute for a God who is more consistent than the rising of the sun. The God of whom I speak has recorded His will and His ways in the words of the Judeo/Christian Bible.

In the beginning, God created woman for man (Genesis 2:23; 1 Corinthians 11:8-9). Man was not given to man, nor woman made for woman, thus establishing God‘s only approved sexual orientation to be united in marriage.

God clearly declares homosexual behavior an abomination, and punishable by death (Leviticus 20:13). Historically, there is no civilization that has endured the ages that openly embraced and celebrated homosexuality. The Bible gives two cities — and history records others — as examples where the moral decay of homosexuality contributed to their ultimate demise. We are all familiar with: Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19), Pompeii, and the empires of Greece and Rome.

History is bound to repeat itself for those who do not learn from it, and Mexico City’s leaders had better be quick learners in this area, or they will bring God’s judgment of decay and destruction on their beloved country, and great will be its fall.

Socialism By Any Other Name Is Still Socialism Sunday, Dec 20 2009 

Capitalism and Health Care and Socialism and welfare , , pressedpages 6:31 PM

In Llewellyn King’s article extolling socialism, he inadvertently reveals the role of good government, and divulges the dirty little secret of a governmental system that discourages invention and growth, and encourages corruption. His examples of parks, public transportation, and community infrastructure are exactly what government should provide — all people benefit equally. In addition, his example of American government officials, and media moguls, who personally benefited from corrupt socialistic legislation, exposes the glaring flaw of socialism.

In a socialistic government, what benefit does the individual glean from the risk, sacrifice, and work he devotes to the development of a new idea?

Times up! None.

In a capitalistic society, what benefit does society glean from the creativity and risk taken by the individual?

Times up! Everything!

Because rewards abound for the individual’s risk and effort, society gains in the development, improvement, and mass implementation of tools that make life much more pleasant. For example, telegraph rather than letters; e-mail rather than telegraph; texting rather than e-mail; twitter rather than texting; and the list goes on in virtually every area of life.

The statists’ inane notion that society is somehow ’entitled’ to the wealth accumulated by the individual is rooted in pure covetousness. Then, when covetousness is legislated, the government shackles the populace with legalized theft. The only person entitled to the fruit (i.e. money earned) of his labor is the individual who worked for it.

Government’s job is to provide equal opportunity, not equal possessions. If someone wants something he does not have, it is incumbent on him to take the necessary steps to earn the income that provides him the means to acquire it. No law should require another to help him.

Europe & Asia can only imitate or tweak what we create. The creation and development of new technology will come to a halt if America continues to socialize her government, and she will become a mere shadow of what she once was — all the while making her people slaves of a corrupt behemoth bureaucracy consumed by an insatiable appetite for wealth and power.

Single-payer health care, by the way, is the capstone of the socialist agenda that will destroy our standard of living, and control every area of our lives. It is a colossal mistake to impose such legislation on our society.

Between a Rock and a Hard Place Wednesday, Dec 9 2009 

Freedom and Liberty and Tyranny , , pressedpages 6:50 AM

There was an article in The Houma Courier last week regarding a 27 year old soldier‘s, Jabari Harding, automobile accident, and subsequent felony DWI charge, which reeked of potential injustice.

Several glaring questions loom over the entire accident, such as: Was the driver of the hit vehicle — who survived unscathed and was of legal drinking age — tested for alcohol? If so, what was his level? If not, why not? Was the fact that the other driver, Ralph Anderson III, the grandson of a sitting state Senator, play any part in influencing the officers to treat him more leniently than Harding was?

What was the speed limit, and was Harding within it? Was there a traffic light at the intersection? If so, who had the right of way? If not, was there a stop sign? If so, who had the right of way? Did Anderson see Harding coming, or did he turn left attempting to beat Harding through the intersection? Given the same circumstances, less Harding’s alcohol level, would the accident have happened anyway?

In this case, to disregard Anderson’s driving, and point solely at Harding’s blood alcohol level as the cause of the accident, is to jump to conclusions and pander to injustice.

The courts should be fair and equitable, and not be used as MADD’s personal lynching machine. Harding appears to be an honorable young man in a terrible situation. Automobile fatalities are heart wrenching, and these families have suffered greatly, but vigilantism subverts justice. Based on the article, it appears that Harding was unfortunately involved in an unavoidable accident caused by Anderson’s misjudgment. Apparently, to save the Senator’s grandson from any culpability, and to take the one-size-fits-all appeasement to the politically powerful machine, MADD, Harding’s alcohol level is the scapegoat, and injustice is poised to destroy yet another life.

Tiger and the Tramp Thursday, Dec 3 2009 

Christianity and Uncategorized , pressedpages 8:30 PM

Black Friday took a whole new meaning for Tiger Woods once it was disclosed he was on the prowl in NYC. What a shame. What a disappointment! It’s always a tragedy to see someone caught in the web of infidelity and deception, but it can happen to anyone — no one is above it. However, as the saying goes, “the bigger you are, the harder you fall“, and the thud you heard Friday morning was that of Tiger falling from his pedestal.

Tiger’s private life became public when he drove his car into a fire hydrant and a tree at 2:30 a.m., prompting a neighbor to call the police. Apparently, Woods was linked to a party hostess in New York City, and a confrontation with his wife ensued. Rather than answer the police or media’s questions about the accident, he holed up for two days causing speculation to run rampant worldwide. To fill Woods’ deafening silence, more women who allegedly had trysts with him entered the fray; some with electronic proof of their relationship.

All of this is so unfortunate for Tiger and his family, but God is faithful and sovereign, and there is an eternal reason this information came to light. Scripture tells us “to whom much is given, much is required”, a far cry from a demand for perfection (which Tiger has declared he’s not), but a realistic mandate required of those placed in positions of influence.

Now is the time exhibit humility and contrition rather than tell everyone, “It‘s a private matter so leave me alone!” The damage is done, things will never be the same again for him, so he should just come out of his lair, and humbly & simply say, “I was wrong, and I’m sorry.” No excuses. No fanfare. No explanation. Just a sincere apology for living a lie about who he really is.

It’s time for a change in Tiger’s life, but that will only happen when there’s a change in his heart, and the heart can only be changed by the One who made it. A mere alteration in Tiger’s, or any adulterer’s, behavior is insufficient. He needs a new heart, and that comes from repentance to God the Father through the blood of Jesus Christ. This may be the lowest point in Tiger’s life, but perhaps it’s the catalyst the Lord is using to arrest this well liked, young, successful man to deliver him from the kingdom of darkness and bring him into the Kingdom of Light.

 

Obama Immasculating the Military Wednesday, Dec 2 2009 

Obama's Audacity , , , , , pressedpages 7:24 AM

Last night, our haggard looking President (lavish late night parties?) stood before the photo-optable West Point Cadets, to announce his plan to send 30,000 troops, 10,000 less than requested, to Afghanistan for a mere 18 months. This man continues to prove he is an immature, inexperienced, wanna-be man. It is incomprehensible to me that thinking people actually voted for this embarrassment to lead our nation and armed forces.

This man doesn’t know how to fight a strategic military battle (although he is quite adept at playing covertly coercive thug politics). His announcement last night was comparable to Mike Tyson telling Hollifield he was going to bite his ear off at the end of the fight if Mike was losing. Yeah, I can just see Hollifield never putting his guard up for that one! “Sure Mike, whatever you say!”, is how he would respond. And when the moment came, Hollifield would be completely taken off guard. Right?

Isn’t that what Obama is doing with the Taliban? The next thing we can expect is the disclosure of where the troops are going to be stationed, and how many will be at each point. Oh that Commander In Chief . . . he’s a crafty one! You know the enemy doesn’t watch any of the press coming out of Washington, or any speeches Obama makes (certainly wish we didn‘t have to). Why, no! They are totally oblivious morons out in the desert playing with a stray iguana whenever they find one. They’re not trying to destroy The Great Satan. No, they aren’t killing our troops, burning their bodies, and hanging their corpses from a bridge for all to see. No, not the Taliban. Not Obama’s good buddies.

I pray our nation will be able to endure the destructive dismantling Obama is doing to this country’s ability to defend herself. May God judge him for his treasonous deeds and display of unabashed hubris.
