A Time For All

I stand looking off into the distance and memories from a more pleasant time comes forth and provides comfort and warmth much like that of an embrace from a favorite family member or some long forgotten childhood friend. Those scenes shatter as sounds from another TV pundit proclaims the wonders of the Obama administration. The cloth from which the pattern of this country was cut and sewn together has started to unravel before our eyes. The story about this country has been revised and rewritten, and one place where this has happened is in our schools. Those teaching the history of this country have left out chapter after chapter of the real America and the real Americans.

One thing that has been torn from the pages of this country's history is the pages concerning our religious heritage. This is not something new but has slowly grown into acceptance of so many people over the years.  Institutions have helped create laws which say there can no longer be any mention of God in the classroom. Yes indeed, God forbid teach something which might give the children a basis of common sense/decency and a clear cut line of that which is right and wrong. A line the liberal teaching profession and progressives across this great country have decided does not exist. Taught by politics, culture and in our schools and university's taught by some who were part of a generation where virtue was an inconvenience and, "If it felt good do it".,  These days the children are taught that Christian religion doesn't and should not play an important role in American life today, a time in their life where there is such a need for direction and assurance.

Samuel Adams stated "A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when they lose their virtue they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader".


So as memories fade and reality forces itself back into the forefront we must realize, time is running out and  unless we decide to return to that time when God was in our daily life, and yes even within our government, and unless we return to the time when we prayed with reverence without embarrassment and asked God for his help, we cannot and we will not survive this last fight we are soon to enter. Do not let others dictate their progressive style of life that contradicts the lifestyle which God has directed us. I am not the caliber person our founders were, where men had to stand and be prepared to give their lives for their beliefs. I can strive to become something only in the shadow of such great men as those but I will continue to read, study, learn and voice my opinion.
