I seem to remember years ago there was a statue of Jesus in a public park that had been there many years. When they were sued by the atheists (or ACLU, one and the same), the liberal judge ruled they had to take it off public land.

They sold the land that it was on to a private foundation. The judge, ticked off that people still could see the statue while in the park, ruled that a 10 ft fence be put in front of the statue so that no one could see it.

I may be wrong in a particular or two but that is the gist of the story as I remember it.

We are in a war against people that hate God, no matter what logical sounding arguments people use that is the crux of the matter.

People hate and are afraid of accountability to a higher power. They attack with a hate that those of us on the other side have difficulty understanding, and we need to wake up and realize it is a war.

"realize it is a war. "

Ol' Lucifer and his minions are very busy.


Be still and know that God is God.

I have noticed this. You can see it on this very thread. For those who choose not to believe in God, the thought that they might be wrong must be quite disconcerting. They must feel that they can bolster the validity of their choice by belittling those who choose differently... calling them Bible thumpers, fanatics, etc. Like liberals, they accuse the other side of doing what they themselves are doing.

I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt that a debate about the sixth or seventh amendments would bring on such a vigorous, self-righteous defense of their interpretation. And I'm pretty sure they would not be so condescending to, or disdainful of, those on the other side. In a way, it is rather amusing.
