Is the dream dead?

August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. gave his now famous “I have a dream” speech. He dreamed of a day that we would no longer look at each other and see only skin color. Dr. King was looking forward to a day when skin color was not what made the person who they are!!!

Today we have schools teaching racism, and trying to shame white children into feeling guilty for things they didn’t do. We need to hold these teachers accountable for the damage they are doing to these children.

Have we come so far as a nation to allow a few privileged elitist to control the narrative about race? Have we come so far as a nation to allow social justice warriors to spread their warped ideology, with out challenge?

Is the DNC that desperate?

The campaign for POTUS this year seems to be the strangest one I have personally witnessed. No matter what facts are presented about either side, supporters will not change their minds about their candidate. Donald Trump is no saint and I have a lot of Constitutional issues with him and Hillary, and that alone should make a true conservative take a step back and reevaluate Trump, or at the very least make their voice be heard and pressure Trump in to changing his stance on the issue with the Constitution in mind.

Hillary on the other hand is a whole other issue. No conservative ever expects a liberal to adhere to much less talk about the Constitution. But with all the lies Hillary has told and all of the corruption that has been exposed that she has been at the center of, you would think that folks who support her would have second thoughts, but they do not.

Blindly following a candidate when there is evidence that you should not, is not a virtue, it is a sin! When a person is shown evidence that contradicts their beliefs and they refuse to change those beliefs, it show the persons lack of character, and integrity!

The Separation of Economy and State

Just like I believe that the separation of Church and state is a political fallacy and people twist what Thomas Jefferson told the Baptist Association of Connecticut. The 1st amendment places the restriction on government when it comes to establishing a religion, no where in the 1st amendment is there a restriction of the people in regards to their exercising their beliefs. In other word Christians are to be Christians 24/7 and can’t leave their religious beliefs and principals at any door especially a political door. But folks like those at the Freedom From Religion Foundation twist what the founders and Thomas Jefferson said to make people believe that religion has no place in the public square.

Those same people believe that the government and only the government can run our economy and would rather have Christian principals left out of the discussion. Can the government run the economy efficiently? Can the government fight the laws of economics and win? Just look at the state of our economy and tell me if the government is doing a good job!!! We the People know our own wants, needs and desires better than the government, and it is the consumer not government who should have the last word on the economy, period!!!

What about the constitution party?

My friend Nick asked me about an article Top 10 Reasons Not to Vote for Constitution Party Candidate Darrell Castle By Josh Guckert thelibertarianrepublic.com. For the most part Josh gets Darrell Castle and the Constitution Party’s platform and positions correct. However, there are a few things taken out of context and misinterpreted to make it look like Darrell Castle is not the conservative he claims to be.

Remember folks the average libertarian and the Libertarian party are anti state and authority, so with this in view why are they running Gary Johnson for POTUS, when he would if he won run the state that they so detest?

Episode 649: Christian/Political commentary on the news and current events!!!

We will be talking about government regulation, and unconstitutional government agencies. Healthcare, Trump, Hillary, and the lamestream media will all come under my scrutinizing intellect!

Daily Bible reading: Joh 3:14-21 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

Climate change, terrorism, and the political elite!!!

Ever wonder why the political elite blame the worlds problems on everybody but themselves? The rise of terrorism, floods, storms, the economy, the general disarray that has become the government in general. For whatever reason the political elite will not look in the mirror and say, maybe I’m the problem, maybe what I’m doing is no good and wrong for the country!

Whether we like it or not, for the most part we are responsible for our decisions and actions in life. We create our own problems and sometimes find our own solutions to problems. But first and foremost we need to own up to the fact that we may be the problem. Second we need to look for the truth and facts of any situation we may find ourselves in, and finally at the end of the day accept the consequences good or bad of the outcome of our decisions!

Climate change is not the cause of the worlds ills, mankind is. Mankind’s biggest problem is that we have forgotten God and his teachings for our lives! If we would just exercise some of the Grace and Mercy God shows us, towards our fellow man, “what a wonderful world this would be!!!”
