So-Called Evangelicals Denounce The Atonement As "Too Individualistic"

In an interesting article posted a Christianity Today, Mark Dever examines growing opposition within the Evangelical community to the substitionary atonement, meaning the death of Christ upon the cross for the fulfillment of our sins.

Thinking they know more than God now, a number of theologians oppose the Atonement as a barbaric holdover from less enlightened times that fosters a sense of individuality among believers. Heaven forbid anything that hinders our sublimation into members the COMMUNITY.

Frankly though, if Christ did not die for our sins and rise from the dead, why bother being a Christian at all? 1 Corinthians 15:19 says, "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable."

Furthermore, what's the point of forgiveness and eternal life if it means the obliteration of our individuality in a manner akin to Brahmin in Hinduism or the Nirvana of Buddhism?

Also, the observant might note that, if these theological babblers have constructed elaborate arguments to convince themselves they are without sin, the last thing they want to confront is the most jarring reminder of all that the bad in humanity outweighs the good.

The word sin is simply retained as a convenient tool with which to prod the masses when the uneducated clods drag their feet in implementing the agenda of the elite and hindering the revolution rather than to convict any one person of individual wrongdoing.

For the offenses of materialism, racism, and nationalism mentioned are so broad that they are more interpretations than specific misdeeds.

In the eyes of our social and ecclesiastical overlords, materialism is not so much the Saganist philosophy that the universe all the was, is, or ever will be but rather the failure to relinquish one's property to the state or other institutions of authority. Racism is not so much the mistreatment of a particular individual and thus covered under more traditional ethical codes but rather failure to support undue concessions or favors for protected groups. Nationalism is not so much the elevation of the state above God or even the individual but rather the failure to embrace the headlong rush towards global government.

As all powerful as the Communitarians would like their collective to be, it's not going to do one bit to keep you out of Hell or launch you into a happy afterlife. And if there is no hope beyond the grave, why shouldn't we party like a bunch of Epicureans, maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain as each of us sees fit if death is nothing but the ultimate get out of jail free card as the cold end of it all with neither the guilty being punished or the righteous rewarded?

Keep Telling Yourself That & You Might Believe It: Quack Says Fetuses Can't Feel Pain

A Psychologist says laws enacted to protect the unborn from undue pain are irrational and might end up harming the woman.

Me wonders if this shrink is concerned about the physical health of woman or the guilty consciences of the mass murderers.

This story goes on to point out that pain has been redefined in such a way that even new borns are incapable of feeling it.

Mormon Brainwashing Techniques

This article examines a number of Mormon outreach efforts.

Foremost among those examined is the practice where young adults are expected to donate two years of their lives in missionary service to the church.

Frankly, any religious organization --- either hetero or orthodox --- that stipulates the extent of contact that someone may have with their family (as the story points out missionaries are only permitted to phone home on Christmas or Mother's Day, I notice Father's don't count even though they've done just as much for their children as Mothers)should be considered suspect to begin with.

State Of The Border

To counterbalance all the ecstasy over the disillusion of the United States this week as media sycophants snuggle up to their immigrant overlords, this link provides another perspective of the crisis on the border.

This interview takes a look at incursions of the Mexican military into the United States and how Americans living along the border live in fear and are forced to arm themselves against rapacious transborder vagrants.

But I guess some liberal is going to tell us we have an obligation to have our property pillaged and our women ravished in the name of tolerance and diversity.

Gaze Upon The Ghettoized Future --- If You Dare

I tried to watch some of it myself as C-Span's coverage of these Communist powwows is quite enlightening as they usually take a hands-off approach and allow the coverage speak for itself. At one ant-war rally a while back, they showed some rock band whose most memorable lyric was "F-Dick Cheney", something the American people were not told about on the collaborationist evening news as socialist sympathizers in the mainstream media usually paint such gatherings as wholesome and all American.

However, since the rally was primarily in Spanish, I did not have the stomach to sit there and watch this human bilge dance upon the grave of my country.

Frankly, if these activists are not going to use English at such gatherings, they should be put under surveillance for subversion since the average America does not know what is being said. For all we know, they could be speaking about putting the Anglos in relocation camps.

Yet, I did hear a few such as Virginia Congressman Jim Moran extol illegals as "the hardest working Americans" in what amounted to his exhortation of the glories of retaining a slave race in our midst for the purposes of doing work he himself is too good to do and noticed from one woman masquerading at being an Indian how she purposefully left out Caucasians and White folks in her enumeration of the various people groups within out borders.

Those favoring an immigration policy that does not take into account the ethnicity and linguistic backgrounds of those coming here should be compelled to watch all four hours of this Marxist filth and then turn to their children and tell them this is the ghettoized future mommy and daddy want for you.

Words "Mother" & "Father" Barred From Spanish Birth Certificates

There was once a Greek philosopher named Cratylus that refused to speak but rather wiggled his finger in response to a question because he believed things were in such a state of change and flux that by the time he responded the answer would be linguistically meaningless.

In the postmodernist rush to abolish all traditional values, Spain's socialist government is removing the terms "Mother" and "Father" from birth certificates and replacing these titles with "Progenitor A" and "Progenitor B" in order to accommodate the legalization of gay marriage in that European nation.

How they plan to circumvent biology, they have not yet announced.
Surprisingly, lesbians are among the first to balk at the administrative change on the grounds that in Spanish the term for "progenitor" is inherently male in nature.

I guess won't be long until those sensitive to the implications of hierarchy will be offended to the labeling of "A" and "B" since one would be listed before and thus above the other.

If things continue down this path, eventually no one will be permitted to speak at all since to translate thought into words and speech is itself a form of auditory rape since the act of communication puts the recipient of the message in a submissive position as the recipient (can't use the word person since that would be speciesist) is then bound by semiotic conformity through such cognitive intrusion.

Communists Behind Rallies For Illegals

Maryland School System Suborns Truancy

Bombers Disguise Themselves As Women

I’ve discussed this before among colleagues and associates as to the propriety of Muslims retaining the trappings of their traditional garb and head-coverings.

Suicide bombers disguised as women have blown up an Iraqi mosque, killing 79 and wounding over 100.

While Muslim women are to be commended for dressing modestly as modernized women continue to dress sluttier and sluttier with piercings through their navels and tattoos scrawled across their backs jiggling out there in the open for all the world to see, Western societies need to think long and hard about allowing additional immigrants from lands where this mode of dress is prevalent to settle in industrialized nations.

At the very least, bans on face veils should be considered because when their mugs are concealed you don’t know whether there’s a good looking dame under there or a pile of whiskers out to blow you up.

Americans would not tolerant Klansmen going about unimpeded with their faces concealed. Then why allow it by those practicing an interpretation of a particular world faith just as dedicated to implementing their pernicious ideology through any means necessary?

Camouflage Deemed Racist

A Colorado school has banned camouflage as well as other assorted patriotic paraphernalia on the grounds that such raiment represents a divisive brand of patriotism (meaning any that does not support the sublimation of the United States into the New World Order) and thus presents a potential threat to public safety. In a similar decision in San Diego, a school there has banned the flag as well as red, white, and blue clothing.

It is about time people remembered just what country this is. If old glory offends you that much, you should have never come here in the first place. Maybe students can find happiness and prosperity back in the geographic trashpiles they fled from but from which they continue to derive their sense of pride and identity.

Just how far does promulgating regulations about clothing in the name of harmony at the expense of individuality extend? If skinheads don't like the Jewish kids wearing yarmulkes, are school administrators going to make students remove those?

And what about the towel heads; technically, some will argue, there is nothing in Koranic Islam compelling women to wear headscarves. If these immigrants are to be granted a cultural, non-religious exception, what if another student’s cultural expression supports the wearing of camouflage as is the custom for young males in certain Southern and conservative areas?

And though we are now heading into spring, what if a student's winter coat was camouflage as is the case of one of my own? Is the school going to provide an alternative of the pupils choosing since school authorities should not have that much say over non-obscene items.

In this era claiming to value racial intermingling and cohabitation above all else, one would think camouflage would represent the perfect coming together of the various shades of brown and other tones of the earth to represent a purposeful pattern. But no doubt the manly strength and independence alluded to by such garments is something the communalists running the nation's schools simply cannot countenance.

I guess educators are going to have to find another mode of dress more in keeping with the worldview to which students are expected to aspire. Perhaps those little Mao suits once worn by the Chinese would be more appropriate.

Better yet, maybe students should be forced to not wear anything at all since this would be in keeping with the notion prevalent throughout the organs of the totalist state that nothing is to be hidden from the COMMUNITY.

I went to a private school where there were all kinds of silly rules about uniform and dress that were, to use a pun, far from uniformly enforced (especially if you happened to be one of the teacher's kids or from a family favored by the school administration). And even though the school was run by a church part of a denomination somewhat pacifist in nature, nothing was said if one wore a camouflage jacket to and from school.

Things have certainly gotten so much better without school prayer and Christian values now, haven't they?

Bastiat Prize Prejudiced Against Blogs & Self-Publishing

Rather ironic since the prize was supposedly established to promote the institutions of a free society.

Mark Twain was "self-published" at one point; does that mean we should ostracize his scribblings from the annals of our literary heritage?

Shouldn't a prize established to honor one of liberty's foremost spokesman judge writing on its own merits rather than by the pedigrees that have vetted it?

Peace Activists Benefit From Military Action

Three Christian peace activists held by Iraqi insurgents have been rescued by U.S. and British military forces.

Though the story makes clear that the hostages were freed without firing a shot, I don't imagine the soldiers went into a potentially hostile environment unprepared or unprotected.

And that brings us to an interesting point.

If it is the position of these peace activists that it is an abomination before the eyes of God to even have a military or that it is wrong to use force to overcome evil in all instances, shouldn't these prisoners have been willing to remain in the custody of their captors, who are themselves merely adherents of the "religion of peace" responding to the aggression of decadent Western powers, until social workers or other do-gooder types arrived on the scene to negotiate their release through rational persuasion alone?

As with others disposed towards such idealistic nonsense, the inability to defend oneself is an ethical demand to be imposed on everyone else rather than upon those in the vanguard of the revolutionary consciousness.

Opposing specific military actions is one thing. Disavowing the right to fight all together is something else entirely.

These peace activists, refusing to realize the inherent evil of the terrorist enemy, only have themselves to blame for their frightening ordeal. They should merely thank the Lord that someone would come to their rescue with guns blazing had the need arisen.

A Paleoconservative Interpretation Of "V For Vendetta"

Establishmentarian conservatives have denounced this film despite the fact that its protagonist is standing against a regime clearly reminiscient of Fascist and Nazi totalitarianism.

I wonder how they square this with their admiration of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and other Christians that have taken action against tyrannical regimes throughout history.

Are they going to chastize Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance for blowing up the Death Star and Peter and Edmund for attacking Narnia's White Witch since to do so would not be a proper act of submission to authority according to radical noninterventionist Evangelical social theology? If not, why then get after this costumed hero?

I don't remember many Christians complaining about the assasination of the Anti-Christ in the Left Behind Series. So from this are we to conclude we are to condemn sic semper tyrannis when "one of our own" is inflicting undeserved misery upon the masses?

If we can't even stand up to government heavies in acts of imagination now, what freedoms are left for us?

Sartre of Breaking All The Rules and The Columnist News Good does an insightful job of analyzing this movie with what seems like a provocative plot and a captivating visual appeal.

Abstinence Within Marriage

I guess this will eventually become such a fad within the church as well that those not consumating their marriages will come to be seen as somehow holier than those that do just as those favoring the arranged marriages popular in the courtship movement are being applauded as more religious than those that date.

One can't base marriage on sex, but if one is going to leave it out of marriage all together, why even bother getting married to begin with since there would be little there as an award for putting up with the nagging and bickering endemic to any human relationship confined to tight quarters since both pleasure and progeny have been removed from such nuptial equations. Furthermore, since such people have sworn off these most basic of desires, does this mean they lack the desire of the higher psychological and emotional fulfillment that comes from kissing and hand-holding?

I guess by even raising such a question, I have shown myself less advanced or spiritual. However, I find it interesting that the movement even has chatrooms and the like, but why would one go to a chatroom focused on one's sexuality (or lack thereof) if one had no interest in others of a similar sexual persuasion?

Frankly from the wimpish appearance of the couple posted alongside the story (he with girlsh long hair and her with a pale, malnourished look), wouldn't suprise me if most of these folks were vegetarians (probably pacifists too) and might reinvigorate their elan vital if they merely got some meat into their stomachs.

It has been said all of civilization is an attempt to impress the opposite sex. While one does not have to be a slave to this particular aspect of human nature, much of human accomplishment would be quite diminished without it.

Liberals All For Tolerance & Understanding So Long As You Agree With Them

Many contemporary liberals have taken it upon themselves to advocate tolerance and understanding as the highest social values. Such self-professed ambassadors of magnanimity usually extend these principles to everyone except those they disagree with.

Each year, my columns addressing the attacks upon the Christmas holiday elicit a number of emotional responses. My essay expounding the attempts by environmentalists to stifle enjoyment of the Advent season prompted a number of ultrapluralists to expose their true colors.

One such critic began, “This article...was too full of name calling, stereotypes, and mean spiritedness. It is very opinionated and one sided. Rang of the all too familiar ‘Rush Limbaugh’ lets bash everyone who is not like us.”

While it is an honor in the content of the column in question to be compared to Rush Limbaugh, I ask you is not the offended pluralist the one engaged in “name calling, stereotypes, and mean spiritedness”? Of course, my column was “very opinionated and one sided”. It’s suppose to be one sided; that’s why it’s called an “opinion piece”.

There is no “Fairness Doctrine” that applies to commentaries and editorials. If someone wants to consider what the other side has to say and has way too much time on their hands, one is perfectly free to consult the National Wildlife article I originally referenced.

Interestingly, this insistence upon objectivity is usually only imposed upon conservative thinkers and ideologues. I don’t remember the National Wildlife or Carroll County Times articles clarifying that holiday over-consumption was merely the opinion of a few disgruntled academics and activists with other scientists feeling differently about the matter.

Furthermore, who is a scientist to say something is too much or not enough since it is not the place of science to make such value judgments? When they do, they veer off into the realm of philosophy. Nor do I remember an evenhanded approach being taken by this professed disciple of evenhandedness.

The criticism does not stop here and proceeds on in a similar vein. The comment continues in its haughty progressivist tone, “It lacked any reference to the obligation commanded to be good stewards, it offered no options or alternatives.”

Firstly, there is no provision attached to the First Amendment saying one has to sit there with your mouth shut unless you have a solution to the problem you feel the need to speak out against. Sometimes the best solution to a problem that really isn’t much of a problem is not to apply any solution at all. Some things just really aren’t any of the government’s business.

Americans have been celebrating Christmas for quite a while now. Why all of a sudden do we need the government and tenured professors telling us how to celebrate it?

There is far more waste going on in society (often in government) than whether or not I buy a present someone really doesn’t need apart from the pleasure I will derive seeing the joy I will bring into the life of the loved one I decide to give the gift to. Furthermore, who is to decide whether or not I need that extra present --- Barbara Streisand or Arianna Huffington as they live on their palatial estates and ride around in limousines?

Claiming this is a matter of Christian stewardship is stretching that concept in some areas and misapplying it in others. The Apocalypse won’t result if I use a little too much wrapping paper or have an extra slice of pumpkin pie. There is no reason to be wound that tight.

If someone is going to get all worked up into a twitter that Christmas as commonly celebrated is a misuse of resources worthy of widespread social intervention, shouldn’t they be spending the most valuable commodity they’ll ever possess --- namely their time --- in a manner far better than responding to online blogs? To paraphrase a classic adage, those who can, write blogs; those who can’t, post comments.

Better yet, if every decision we make is to be characterized by the utmost sobriety of Christian stewardship and responsibility, should those that feel this way even have the Internet at all? Wouldn’t that $20 a month be better spent elsewhere if we are going to get all jacked out of shape that someone bought at extra DVD this Christmas instead of sending a check to some televangelist so he can buy another gilded throne for his set or more pink hair dye for his wife?

The criticism continues, “it [the original column] offered no options or alternatives.” Other than people minding their own business as to how others spend their money at Christmas time, what other alternatives are there?” I am not the one calling people to change the way they live their lives in terms of this issue to make Al Gore happy or whatever else it is an emotional Popsicle like him happens to feel.

Back in the days before we were conditioned into thinking government, academia, or the media knew how to run our lives better than we do and when people went to church to hear about their individual relationship with God and not about the imperatives of submitting to the glories of the community, people use to make decisions like how they’d celebrate Christmas on their own. Seems the communitarians are as thrifty with backbones as they are about allowing people to enjoy themselves without Big Brother staring over their shoulders.

This effusively sensitive ascetic concludes by exhibiting a bit of an elitist streak by saying of the commentary, “Too-done too many times and there wasn’t any new voice in the piece.” In other words, if someone at a pay-grade above yours has already said something similar to what’s on your mind, you’d better keep your mouth shut.

Frankly though, isn’t everything said since ancient times simply variations on a theme? Alfred North Whitehead said all of Western thought is but a footnote to Plato and the Bible puts it as there is nothing new under the sun. Since that’s the case, if liberals really cared all that much about the various forms of pollution including that of unneeded noise, shouldn’t they cease their yammering as well?

Winston Churchill is credited with saying the following: under 30 and conservative, you have no heart; over 30 and liberal, you have no head. The worldview espoused by liberals is so devoid of logic and commonsense that they themselves refuse to adhere to the rigors and demands which they expect those of us of inferior intellectual caliber to themselves to abide by.

Galactica Finale A Portent Of Things To Come In Light Of Port Developments

In the season finale of Battlestar Galactica, the Cylons sent an emissary in the form of a religious minister genetically engineered to look human (that in and of itself an apt metaphor for many of today’s churches) to the Galactica crew claiming the annihilation of the colonies of man had been a mistake and that from that point forward this cybernetic society of robots, cyborgs, and clones would no longer harass, to use Lorne Greene’s words from the original series, “the ragtag, fugitive fleet”.

In light of this development, the newly elected president, Gaius Baltar --- himself a Cylon puppet seduced by the enemy’s lusty fembot --- decided to settle upon a habitable planet. An entire year elapses and it seems the Cylons have proven good on their word; however, one day from out of no where the Cylon fleet appears out of hyperspace.

Since the colonials have largely demilitarized, the Battlestars Galactica and Pegasus are forced to jump away through hyperspace with the remainder of the fleet in order to avoid detection. The episode ends with Baltar surrendering to the Cylon delegation and the metal soldiers with the pulsating red eyes marching through the struggling human settlement.

Those breathing a sigh of relief over the United Arab Emirates seeming to relinquish their claims to a number of America’s most sensitive ports would do well to watch this hauntingly prescient scene.

Due to the backlash by patriotic Americans over news of a number of ports being surrendered to potentially hostile foreign powers, Dubai Ports World has promised to instead transfer control of operations to what has been labeled a “U.S. entity”. Anyone saying the matter is over and the danger now passed is, to use Galactica terminology, full of felgarcarb.

For starters, what “U.S. entity” is control being handed over to? Is this a company we can trust controlled by Americans whose families will themselves be blown away should a weapon of mass destruction make into our ports or will it be some kind of sham front American in name only but manned by foreign personnel or controlled from abroad?

And even if this port fiasco ends up settled in our favor, it’s not the only threat of subversion and infiltration we face from this part of the world. According to Pastor Chuck Baldwin, Dubai has also acquired a British firm that produces parts for U.S. military aircraft and tanks.

Islamophiles will counter, but we are at peace with the United Arab Emirates. So what? Even if we are, what is to prevent them from having these parts sabotaged to prevent them from being used against their ethnic kinsman or fellow coreligionists?

Others will snap, in this global economy, we already have foreign corporations managing vital U.S. assets. And it is a cause for tremendous lamentation.

We’ve already lost control over the Panama Canal and since it’s controlled by a firm known for being a front for the People’s Liberation Army of China, it’s likely we won’t be able to use it in the pending war with China likely to take place later this century.

Maybe now Americans will wake up and realize we have been lulled asleep by our news media with stories about O.J Simpson, Britney Spears not putting her baby in a carseat, and Dick Cheney accidentally shooting a friend in the face.

As the Cylon troops march down the streets and cybernetic fighters fly overhead, Chief Tyrol turns to Starbuck and asks, “What do we do now, captain?” She responds, “Fight like we always do. Fight until we can fight no more.” America’s enemies will never stop plotting to bring about our ultimate downfall and that is why the price of liberty will forever be eternal vigilance.

Is Concerned Women For America Becoming Just Another "Men-Are-Always Wrong" Racket

The National Center for Men has filed a lawsuit claiming that fathers should be able to opt out of providing child support for unwanted children.

After all, if a mother has the so-called "right" to have the baby killed, it only naturally follows that an equally self-absorbed father should be able to follow the relatively more benign course of action of total non-involvement in the life of the child.

While the idea is almost as preposterous as allowing the woman the right to end a pregnancy, Concerned Women for America is jumping on board criticism of this lawsuit as a chance to vent the anti-male bias percolating beneath the surface of contemporary Evangelicalism.

In the organization's press release addressing the legal action, it reads, "Fathers must start acting like men and accept responsibility for their actions. This lawsuit is nothing more than an attempt to save a few bucks and get out of kid duty. They need to wake up, smell the diapers, and realize that fatherhood is a beautiful and huge responsibility, which affects the lives of children and our society as a whole.”

While absolutely correct, when was the last time mainstream, religious conservatives took a stand this boldly against the women that have had their innocent children murdered in the name of convenience?

Maybe we should call on women to act like real women to step forward to either keep their pants on if they don't want children, to keep their offspring if they decide to go out and become in the family way anyway, and not pawn the results off on everyone else to take care of.

But instead these days of labelling sin "sin" for what it is and calling on righteous living on the part of all without regards to gender and to take responsibility for their own actions, it's those that speak out plainly against such deeds that are lectured on how the poor woman couldn’t help herself and how it's our fault for not signing over what little remains of our paychecks after having taxes removed to finance the deviancy of all the other dregs of society.

If women these days want to be seen as equals with men, it's about time people rose up and told them off as well in those matters where their irresponsible actions endanger the well-being of us all.

You better not have a runny nose or watery eyes or you might run afoul of the Patriot Act.

Provisions are being added to this legislation, infamous for troubling libertarians from both ends of the political spectrum, that will limit the amount of pseudoephedrine an individual can purchase and require the purchaser to produce a photo ID in order to complete the transaction. Always good to condition the free citizen to bow before authorities in order to remind the humble supplicant of his place before the slave master.

Where will this nonsense end?

Maybe we should herd everyone into designated relocation camps for their own safety; after all, investigations indicate terrorists are more likely to plot such acts when concealed behind closed doors and private residences and it was said in Nam that the village had to be burned to the ground to save it.

Since the epidemic of childhood obesity threatens military recruiting goals in the future, perhaps government sanctioned nutritional accounts should be established where a computerized identification system could be used to determine what foods the individual will be allowed to eat. After all, this is a matter of Homeland Security.

Those prone to think as they are told by those with offices and degrees scoff, but food is legal. But so is Sudafed and is a perfectly legitimate product until abused as meth.

One might say the obese are misusing food. Should the government intervene to prevent it?

I guess to the some radical supporters of El Presidente, this very post is an act of sedition since freedom of expression is a "privilege" that can no longer be countenanced in the war on terror.

In remarks supporting the reauthorization of the Patriot Act, Senator Jim Bunning remarked civil liberties don't mean much when you are dead. So adhering to such logic, Hitler, Stalin, and the like didn't really do anything wrong until they started tossing their people into gas ovens or having them freeze to death in work camps but were within the realm of propriety to break down doors in the middle of the night without cause, riffle through people's possessions for no reason, and to move their populations about as they see fit all in an attempt to thwart the perceived enemies of the superstate.

Courtship Ministry Urges Submission To Ecclesiastical Authorities In Selecting A Mate

It's one thing if advocates of the courtship movement want to insist that the young person must defer to one's parents in terms of selecting a mate since that is a matter internal to each home and families must determine these limits for themselves.

However, aren't things getting just a little bit out of hand when it is established as an expectation that the individual must consult church authorties in regards to this personal matter?

Just how far does this issue of church discipline extend: maybe we should have Pastor make our evening meal selections for us as well? If we as Christians are suppose to go out in such a state of dimwitted humility, why don't we allow the church to determine where we are to live and what kind of career we are to pursue while we are at it.

The comment in question was made around the five minute mark.

Woman Arrested For Infringing Upon Abortuary Guild Craft

A pregnant woman shot herself in the stomach in an attempt to slay her progeny. Unfortunately the child, rather than the mother, died.

Police have arrested this sorry excuse of a human being. However, they have not done so on the grounds of murder.

Virginia Commonwealth attorney's are careful to point out that, since the baby girl had not taken a breath, the charge is actually illegally inducing an abortion, a crime carrying a sentence of a mere 10 years.

However, had this woman gone to an abortion facility, splayed apart her legs, allowed the abortionists to scoop out the fruit of her womb, smash open the child's skull, and suck out the brains, she would be applauded by the likes of Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton as some kind suffragette heroine.

Thus in the eyes of the radical feminists and their secular humanist associates, the crime is not so much that a child has died in this tragedy but that some so-called "Doctor" will have to work an extra hour or two for that new set of golf clubs. For if child was not yet human, why shouldn’t this unmarried deadbeat mother be allowed to blow her innards apart; after all --- her body, her choice we are told the rest of the time.

Host Comes Close To Insinuating Young Women Should Be Kept Home & Pregnant

While Kevin Swanson should be commended for pointing out the sham of contemporary Feminism, I am not so sure the answer lies at the other extreme that young women should be kept out of college and manipulated from young ages into being homemakers if that is not their own individual ambition.

If there are no young children involved, why is it anybody else's business what decision a young woman makes in regards to family or career?

Isn't that one of the reasons we are told we are waging the war in Afghanistan?

This is an issue where both radical Feminist and pious cleric should both mind their own affairs.

Just because a young gal gets a job outside the home it does not follow she will become a harlot standing on a street corner or ravished by a Viagra-maddened supervisor.

While the idea of the family as a unit thumping their noses at the world does have a certain appeal to it, what is a young person to do when their interests do not mesh with those of their other loved ones?

For example, what if a bookish child is born to a family of practically-minded people skilled in their own way for the tasks to which the Lord has called them but have no interest in more studious matters? Is such a young scholar --- either male or female --- to be sentenced to a life of alienation and chastisement for being uniquely talented?

Maybe while we are at it, perhaps we should promulgate some pious decree or institute a caste system along the lines of a Medieval guild that from this day forward one shall forever toil in the craft of their forbearers. Can't have those uppity peasant types getting too much book learning and threatening to upset the balance of power, now can we?

Those finding fulfillment in the social setting Swanson applauds in this interview should be allowed to continue in it unmolested by government social welfare operatives. However, that said, neither should proponents of it turn around and lambaste from pulpit or behind microphone those living in a more contemporary, though as earnestly devout manner, by lavishing undue admiration upon those adhering to standards not necessarily mandated for every individual in every instance in the pages of Scripture.

Discerning Christians need to be warned of the increasing trend among many of their ecclesiastical brethren propagating the deception that if one has not wed and bred by their early 20's, one is somehow outside the will of God.

Christ never married and it has been speculated neither was Paul. Isaac did not marry until his forties.

But I guess these Christian leaders are so much wiser than these figures nowadays and capbable of speaking for all in matters where even the Lord Himself remains silent and grants a degree of freedom to His beloved children.

Regionalism As The Foundation Of Global Control

Credit Union To Launder Money For Illegals

Interesting how when Americans go to place money in an account of an established financial institution, one has to produce multiple forms of identification such as driving permits, social security numbers, and credit cards.

Withdrawing these funds is an even greater ordeal as, not only does one have to produce the collection of ID's, one is burdened with the additional responsibility of having to justify why one desires to take repossession of one's own money. And if one wishes to extract more than an arbitrary limited amount, Big Brother must often be informed that one is doing so.

However, a new credit union is opening in Washington, DC for the purposes of serving the area’s expanding population of illegal aliens. This raises a number of issues and questions.

Foremost, will the individuals utilizing the service and those providing it be subject to the same kind of identification requirements imposed upon actual Americans since it is stated in the story how applicants will be permitted to use foreign identification? Interesting how this will be allowed when American's have to submit to everything just short of a rectal exam (and it was predicted on “Futurama” that down the road one would be required to have a “colonic map” on file) in the name of homeland security and preventing terrorism, but if one happens to be from one of the protected groups more prone to commit subversion one is granted a waver in these matters.

Secondly, this credit union is being marketed to appeal to Hispanics. Would regulators allow for the establishment of a parallel institution that had no qualms about letting it be known that its founders preferred or only wanted Caucasian money?

Few Americans will have the courage to addresses these issues because of the torrents of criticism that inevitably follow from doing so. However, if valiant patriots do not do so soon, the precious heritage of citizenship will become virtually meaningless in the years to come as leftists conspire to ply their system of double standards where equality before the law will be abolished in favor of a system of racial spoils and set asides compelling all within such a domain to bow as peons of the elite.

My friends, this is why we must band together to stop the social blight of unrestricted air guitar.

Won't you join with me for the sake of the children, but more importantly for the sake of the COMMUNITY?

In the olden days, in response to this the little monkeys would hear, "Went to the doctor and the doctor said, 'That's what you get for jumpin on the bed.'"

But fortunately, through the consciousness raising efforts of the Bed Hoppers of America, such insensitive ignorance is becoming a thing of the past with such bigotry against unbridled bed hoppers shunned and relegated to dark corners as it should be.

A Review Of "The Journal Of William Thomas Emerson: A Revolutionary War Patriot"

The life of 10 years-old William Thomas Emerson is forever changed when his family is killed when their home is struck by lightening. William eventually ends up at The Seven Stars Inn in Boston where he finds himself amidst the turbulent days leading up to America's Revolutionary War.

Written in the form of William's journal, this historical fiction provides the reader with a glimpse into young Mr. Emerson's life regarding events both mundane and profound. As a border at the Inn, William comes into contact with a committee of Patriots and assists them in a number of tasks essential to the survival of liberty in America such as aiding in the defection of a British office to the Colonial side and in ferreting out a spy from the ranks of the committee's own membership.

Crafted as a first person account, Denenberg does not gloss over incidents that would shock our contemporary sensibilities as might be the case in a more detached theoretical exposition. Neither does he sugarcoat the shortcomings of either side.

For example, not only does Denenberg depict a Redcoat pummeling an innocent bystander to death, but he also portrays a Patriot mob that vandalizes and burns down the house of a Tory sympathizer.

Of America's Founding Fathers, it has been said they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. This truth is movingly emphasized in the book's epilogue where it is revealed what ultimately happens to the characters and one learns some of them were called upon to give the last full measure of devotion.

In addressing the purpose behind the book, Denenberg writes, "The American Revolution, more than any other event in American history, has been presented to young readers as an abstract, artificial, distant, and disembodied occurrence involving old men who wore funny clothes and later became statues and oil paintings...I hoped to accomplish two things: to reveal...what it was like to live in 1774 in Boston. And to bring the revolution to life by showing it affected ordinary people and how they affected it."

The Journal of William Thomas Emerson will help the reader better understand what those living at this period in American history had to endure and to more fully appreciate the gift of liberty those forefathers assisted in passing down to each one of us.
