Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone.

For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Can a muslim be a good American? Thanks Dave Miller

CAN MUSLIMS BE GOOD AMERICANS? (Please read)






CAN MUSLIMS BE GOOD AMERICANS? (This is certainly 'food-for-thought'. What do you think?)



This is very interesting and we all need to read it from start to finish and send it on to everyone. Maybe this is why our American Muslims are so quiet and not speaking out about any atrocities. Can a good Muslim be A good American?



This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years.



The following is his reply:



Theologically - no. . . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon God of Arabia.



Religiously - no.. . .. Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah except Islam (Quran, 2:256)(Koran)



Scripturally - no. . . Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of Islam and the Quran.



Geographically - no . Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he turns in prayer five times a day.



Socially - no. . . Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews .



Politically - no.. . . Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual Leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America , The great Satan.



Domestically - no. .. . Because he is instructed to marry four Women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 )



Intellectually - no. . Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.



Philosophically - no. . . . Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran does not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.



Spiritually - no.. . . Because when we declare 'one nation under God,' The Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to As Heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in the Quran's 99 Excellent names.



Therefore, after much study and deliberation.... Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. - - - They obviously cannot be both 'good' Muslims and good Americans. Call it what you wish it's still the truth. You had better believe it.. The more who understand this, the better it will be for our country and our future.



The religious war is bigger than we know or understand. ....



Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within.



SO FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.



THE MARINES WANT THIS TO ROLL ALL OVER THE U.S.

Art Linkletter wrote "Kids Say the Darndest Things" years ago, but ...

Kids are still saying them. 

Some favorites of Jeanie's and mine:

Granddaughter Tobey @ 2- "I be back"- when leaving the room.  "I back!" upon her grand return.

Granddaughter Ida @ 1- "I Gogus !"- when told she is a cutie.

Son, Jeff @ 2- when wrestling with dad on the family room floor- Dad would put him in a 'hold' and grab a smooch- "Smoochin' fightin'- Never heard of it! "

Sharon's grandson Cory@ 3-  upon his  return to the adults in his Grandma and Grandpa's  basement- "Here comes Cory!"

Son Jeff @ 3 when returning to Jeanie and me at our car from the New Boston Little League diamond and asked about Jay's whereabouts-  "Aw, he's down ther in that digout, shovel out, or sumpin' like that."

Morgan @ 5- when Jeanie asked about what's for dinner- " I don't like Ida Scout (escalloped) potatoes."

Son Jay @ 3- in Lexington when friend Ronnie was about to park and another guy grabs the spot- yells out  at the big brute- "Hey!  Get out of there.  That's our spot!"  Ronnie just gunned his big Crown Chrysler out of there.

Our teacher- neighbor of Een Park- Ford Newberry kept these kind of student or parent responses- Ford wrote a note for a parent to Please give Johnny a bath- He smells!  He received back:  "Don't small him- Larn him!"

I wish somebody would add theirs to these few in comments.  Of course old people Jeanie and Sam repeat these many times to our friends and acquaintanceas.  We all have some gems from the smaller set.

Observations on Growing Older



~Your kids are becoming you...and you don't like them

...but your grandchildren are perfect!

~Going out is good.

Coming home is better!

~When people say you look "Great"...

they add "for your age!"

~When you needed the discount you paid full price.

Now you get discounts on everything ...

movies, hotels, flights, but you're too tired to use them.

~You forget names ... but it's OK

because other people forgot

they even knew you!!!

~The 5 pounds you wanted to lose

is now 15 and you have a better chance

of losing your keys than the 15 pounds.

~You realize you're never going

to be really good at anything .... especially golf.

~Your husband is counting on you

to remember things you don't remember.

~The things you used to care to do,

you no longer care to do,

but you really do care that you

don't care to do them anymore.

~Your husband sleeps better on a lounge chair

with the TV blaring than he does in bed.

It's called his "pre-sleep".

~Remember when your mother said

"Wear clean underwear in case you GET in an accident"?

Now you bring clean underwear in case you HAVE an accident!

~You used to say,

"I hope my kids GET married ..

Now, "I hope they STAY married!"

~You miss the days when everything worked

with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch..

~When GOOGLE, ipod, email, modem ...

were unheard of, and a mouse was something

that made you climb on a table.

~You used to use more 4 letter words ...

"what?"..."when?" ???

~Now that you can afford

expensive jewelry, it's not safe to wear it anywhere.

~Your husband has a night out with the guys

but he's home by 9:00 P.M. ...next week it will be 8:30 P.M.

~You read 100 pages into a book before you realize you've read it.

~Notice everything they sell in stores is "sleeveless"?!!!

~What used to be freckles are now liver spots.

~Everybody whispers.



~Now that your husband has retired ...

you'd give anything if he'd find a job!

~You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet ...

2 of which you will never wear.

~~~~But old is good in some things:

old songs

old movies

And best of all OLD FRIENDS!!



Love you, "OLD FRIEND!"

Send this on to other "Old Friends!" and

let them laugh in AGREEMENT!!!
