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.

NOT a joke- A funeral in Tennessee

Thanks Nita and Mr. Hughes!




God has blessed these respectful people who were part of this and also this very saddened family of the lady's nephew, James. James gave his all for freedom. We want our country back where we can all freely express ourselves. The sixteen per cent of "other" Americans did not stop this demonstration by the faithful ones.

Funeral in Tennessee





In Tennessee we really do pull off the road and stop for funerals... nobody moves until the last car has gone by.



What follows is a message from Vicki Pierce about her nephew James' funeral, who was killed while serving his country in Iraq !



However, the most incredible thing was what happened following the service on the way to the cemetery. We went to our cars and drove to the cemetery escorted by at least 10 police cars with lights flashing and some other emergency vehicles, with Tennessee police handling traffic. Everyone on the road who was not in the procession, pulled over, got out of their cars, and stood silently and respectfully, some put their hands over their hearts..



When we turned off the highway suddenly there were teenage boys along both sides of the street about every 20 feet or so, all holding large American flags on long flag poles, and again with their hands on their hearts. We thought at first it was the Boy Scouts or 4 H club or something, but it continued for two and a half miles. Hundreds of young people, standing silently on the side of the road with flags. At one point we passed an elementary school, and all the children were outside, shoulder to shoulder holding flags kindergartners, handicapped, teachers, staff, everyone. Some held signs of love and support. Then came teenage girls; and younger boys, all holding flags. Then adults.. Then families. All standing silently on the side of the road. No one spoke, not even the very young children.



The military presence, at least two generals, a fist full of colonels, and representatives from every branch of the service, plus the color guard who attended James, and some who served with him, was very impressive and respectful, but the love and pride from this community who had lost one of their own was the most amazing thing I've ever been privileged to witness!



I've attached some pictures, some are blurry (we were moving), but you can get a small idea of what this was like.



These photos are awesome !!



Please ACCEPT Sam's apology for nbot inclkuding these wonderful photos of very rescpectful Americans.


THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST MOVING E-MAILS I'VE SEEN TO DATE











Chain for our Military...please don't break it



Please send this on. There is nothing attached... Just send this to all the people in your address book.



Do not let it stop with you,please...
