That point is debatable regaring "created" versus "made", and many treat it as a semantical issue. Adam was created from the dust of the earth, whereas Eve was formed from a rib of Adam. Hoever, in God's mind, they were called "man", Genesis 1:27. In keeping with Romans 5:12, reference is made to Adam only, thus my assertion. However, this is not a matter for dogmatism, and will accept that he created 2 people, if it is preferred.

In any case, if we allow Eve as a "child of God" then that doubles the original number, but still remains only 2. We, you and I, are not children of God by virtue of our existence, rather, we are "sons of man" (as Jesus called himself) and we are sons of the Devil, as he also described us.

We are not all God's children, as so many assert, mostly those who try to rationalize there abberant behavior by asserting "God made me this way", which is rubbish. God does not cause anyone to sin, James 1:13-15.

I don't know much about the Koch brothers, only that they're always mentioned as being conservative; they were just an example off the top of my head. I was making a broader point, that there are plenty of wealthy conservatives who could help, if they weren't focused on how their portfolios are going to do this quarter, and this quarter only. Instead of investing in "emerging markets", they need to invest in stopping "emerging Communism" here at home. Even the typical conservative Joe Investor, instead of just blindly accepting what their Edward Jones or Raymond James broker tells them, should start looking for ways to put at least part of their money to work saving our Republic.

I can't make it happen, 'cause my brain's not wired for the money game. But someone out there can.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

these idiots don’t care about adults. They want the young minds full of mush.

And they are being wildly successful, because the parent(s) of said children have minds of mush as well.

When did we, as an aggregate populace, stop thinking for ourselves? Have we ever, or were we simply protected because of the predominate morality that general Biblical morals and education in society had wrought?

Well, at least we know these are the good ole days, as it will continue to wax worse and worse, as The Day approaches.

Safe to say that same sex will not survive marriage.

Grammy winner Macklemore shouted cloyingly sanctimonious antireligious slogans into his microphone: "The right-wing conservatives think it's a decision / And you can be cured with some treatment and religion ... Playing God, aw nah, here we go / America the brave still fears what we don't know / And God loves all his children is somehow forgotten / But we paraphrase a book written 3,500 years ago."

Giving him all the rap Grammys hasn't won Mack or the Academy or their cause much love in the "authentic rap community."

All the more reason there needs to be created a conservative/patriotic pop culture. Why aren't we building conservative movie studios? Why are we not building conservative record labels? Why are we not pooling our money in conservative funds to buy control of cable and satellite companies? If those funds don't exist, I'm pretty sure there are people out there who could create them.
Have you ever noticed how much time it can take to format a post really well? IMHO it is a rule that the higher the production values of a movie - like to fine formatting of a post - the stronger the tendency for the content and meaning of the production to be denigrated. Something like that is going on.

The people who are good at production values aren’t necessarily Denis Prager or Thomas Sowell.

PShaw...

..ya oughta see what GOD will do to it!!




Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

Some of these homosexual pride parades and events are being marketed as family friendly.

Mormonism is marketed as Family Forever®.
