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. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.

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.

Why we Fight- Recommended by Jack H. Plymale

Thoughtful presentation- Takes 22 minutes to watch completly. A respected friend, Jack Plymale of Portsmouth Ohio, mentioned this one to me and I found this film on Google.

The military/industrial complex is powerful, but strength is a necessary protector of our freedoms. We have witnessed the failure of socialism. communism, dictatorships, and tyranny during the last and present centuries. We don't want young people to give their health and lives in war, but there is no appeasement of those avowed to kill every American. I can't agree with Gore Vidal and his ilk. It is good to think about, but not forget what has gone on before.

I want God kept in American institutions and I want our military efforts not to make certain of us wealthy at the expense of the sacrificed ones. Can we have it both ways? I think the partisanship of our political leaders is far too selfish for the most part but I pray daily for our president and his staff.
