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.

Statue in Baghdad ...




statue in Iraq
















_____________________________________________________________________

Remarkable Statue
I for one, am thankful for the power of the Internet. I would never see this in or on any of this country's main media outlets. Shame on them.



DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS? OR WHERE THIS IS?


This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace, now home to the 4th Infantry
division. It will eventually be shipped home and put in the memorial museum in
Fort Hood , Texas
The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced
by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that
dotted Baghdad

Kalat was so grateful for the America 's liberation of his country; he melted 3 of the
heads of the fallen Saddam and made the statue as a memorial to the American
soldiers and their fallen warriors

Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months.

To the left of the kneeling soldier is a small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms.

Do you know why we don't hear about this in the news? The media avoids it because
it does not have the shock effect. But we can do something about it.

We can pass this along to as many people as we can in honor of all our brave military
who are making a difference.

And please pass this on!


"I believe in the sun even if it isn't shining. I believe in love even when I am alone. I believe in God even when He is silent."
