Excellent post
Atheism is evil and is the religion taught in our government schools, yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Increasing the power of the state is evil and this is the socialist philosophy taught in our socialist-entitlement government schools yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Abortion is evil and is taught in the government school sex ed classes, yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Homosexuality is evil and is glorified as good in our nation's government schools, yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Restricting the ability of a citizen to protect his family is evil and this idea is pushed by the liberal/marxist education establishment, yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
The murder of born children whether by drone or gun is evil, yet children are the most in danger of this terrorist act than anywhere else in the U.S.yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Evil must not be rationalized. It is an abomination yet it is rationalized every day in our nation's socialist entitlement government schools, yet conservatives continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
When we stand against evil with our lives we will overcome evil. When we fail to stand against evil we are cowards. People who would give their lives to stare down evil but continue to send their children into these evil places to be taught by the enemy.
Cowardice is evil but free babysitting is powerfully addictive.
We should start with how we educate our children.
We should start by shutting down the government owned and run godless, socialist-entitlement, single-payer, prison-like, and compulsory-use schools.
Yes, I absolutely agree.
The government schools are manufacturing plants.
It really saddens me that my brother, at least at this point, is willingly going to send his two beautiful babies to Denver public schools. Supposedly they have some of the finest public schools in the country...whatever that means.
He complains of the cost of private schools, yet he spends money on luxuries such as a nice car and house, skiing vacations, fishing vacations, dinner entertaining parties for friends and the like.
I tell him you have only one chance to fill their heads with what they need to be filled with, and if you allow the government to do that, they will ruin your children. He claims to be a conservative, but his understanding of that is shallow. He does not have a grasp on what is happening in this country, who is doing it, and why it’s being done.
our government is creating laws and funneling us into system designed to produce results they desire in order to increase their power, and very few people can see it or want to admit it.
I’m not sure what can be done, wintertime, there are good ideas no doubt, but how to implement them in a civil manner is beyond me. One party is evil to the core and the other party is useless to its core, and a large number of normal people simply cannot see at all.

Untrue. The word "Humanism" comes from Theology, particularly Christian, and is that which posits that man is a higher/special creation among all the creatures living on the Earth. -- The immoral philosophy that is trying to claim ownership of the word is more akin to Nietzsche's atheistic and amoral Will to Power.
Good article. Like the author, I don’t understand why anyone is shocked by evil acts, any more than I understand why people are shocked by natural disaster. This is the human condition.
I think the reason for the shock is that people tend to forget that, when horrible situations such as this do take place, it is the “spiritual war” between Heaven vs. Hades which is ongoing, made visable, in the worse way possible.

Your post was excellent in so many ways..Thank you...
I have come to believe that widespread drug use may be rampant in our government and in the institutions that govern us..I believe those substances are key in the release of that inherent evil which lurks inside human beings. Just consider the unreal arrogance, the need to divide, to hate, to envy, to license stealing through the tax code, to punish good and reward evil..I would love to see the President, Vice President, all the Presidental advisers and staff, all members of Congress and all top bureaucrats drug tested on a regular basis. In addition, I would likewise want the Major News Media drug tested on a regular basis..Drug use and addiction produces the narcissism we see today..I have not seen narcissistic behavior this rampant in our governing bodies ever before.The bold and cocksure attitudes we see in so many are just not natural.
.....Also this comes when we do not put our belief, confidence, and love in God.
Good thread.
Most people have considered this to be a Christian nation for so long that it seems to have become a gospel of some sort.
The Bible tells us that we are not of the world and we are not running the world.
However religious organizations have went right along with the world in cutting the trees down because they thought they were the evil instead of the wind,and were a threat to peace and safety although i don,t like to use wind as evil because the wind is not evil, but i get the point.
Our journey through this life is not to straighten up this world but to give us a chance at the eternal life that is promised us.

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
6
Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
7
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
10
Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
I agree with you. However, it’s also an example of a simply natural failure to reason about our faith or about reality. Why are 22 children shot to death in one school a spiritual crisis, while 22 children shot to death in the same time period, but geographically scattered, are a matter of indifference? Why are thousands of people killed by a tsunami an existential crisis, but thousands of people dying from ... flood, fall, lightning, earthquake, landslide, bus accident ... in the same time period, but geographically scattered, are a matter of indifference?
Our faith tells us that evil acts come from the Evil One, and that every believer needs to oppose evil, spiritually and actively, in himself and in the world. Our reason should tell us that we don’t address a practical problem, such the protection of children, by going hysterical over “snapshot” events. In this way, I think the evil-intentioned reaction, “Oh, what a good opportunity to push gun confiscation again!” is more rational and more intelligent than the good-intentioned, emotional, “Yes, yes, let’s do anything, everything!!! to make sure this can’t happen again!”
Translation: This life is simply a “prep” for the next.
The good news is that, the King of Kings is coming back, “soon and very soon” to take back what He had created and establish His kingdom.
...Also this comes when we do not put our belief, confidence, and love in God.”...
Yes!

Today’s power structure of humanism is dominated by the Neitzsche atheistic, amoral self worship. It is anti-Christian/Western. Today, humanism as practiced by “free thinking” social Marxists is in opposition to Western culture’s natural law. It is truth turned up-side-down.
It’s not based on science; it is based on “do as thy wilt.” (That is satanism’s slogan.) Science or “logic” (as “free thinking” lIEbertarians like to protray) that results in politically incorrect conclusions is named “judging from hate” and demonized.
Humanism today is what it is, today and not what it named itself in the past. Since it is not rooted in anything but faddish human will, it can mean anything.
Well, we are to be salt and light. But that doesn't involve earthly solutions to spiritual problems. There is only one solution to this evil, and His name is Jesus.
.....And only Jesus is the REAL ANSWER.
Have your brother at least look into the charter schools. Some of them are run by conservatives. In Colorado, the kids can cross county and district lines.
