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.

The Pendulum Swings ... SamKat aka Sam Kegley, Westerville, OH

The Pendulum Swings



Times are certainly changing


When I was young I was a democrat

My mother never talked politics 

My dad had converted to FDR

Families normally vote with their parents if they vote at all

 
We were blue collar

Dad a railroader while Mom raised ten kids

Blue collar workers and all union workers

 followed the liberal-Progressive line of the democrats fairly blindly


As kids became educated during the forties and fifties

By mainly conservative teachers , 

Many, mainly Christians, changed their thoughts to conservatism with truth sanctified


Never all of course, but sufficiently so to create like- thinking voters

And politicians who commanded unending funds 

Steadily changed our way of life


Upton Sinclair had written “The Jungle” in 1906

Which profoundly changed the meatpacking industry in Chicago and America due 

to Teddy Roosevelt’s presidential and congressional action 

Selfishness ruins any system man, and even God, has created

God stood alone in not giving it its’ way.

The point is that the selfishness of supposedly selfless  socialists

Created communist systems in which the “Party” 

Lived so much better than the Proletariat, ostensibly in the USSR

(Union of Soviet Socialist Russia), China, Cuba, Venezuela and several others.


The leaders proved by their selfishness and control, that their own followers  

Were privileged over the  proletariat


Thusly we live in a continually worsening troubled world

Whereby the real contributors (workers and earners) become fewer 

While the followers grow more and more as takers 

until the system just does not work


Some mistake God’s own system as weak because 

He stressed love and caring

But our loving God also has wrath much stronger than any fascist system

And as with Noah’s Ark and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah

God must be tiring of His people’s iniquities 

To the point of our destruction although only He knows when


Our economy swings From the apex on the left 

where we need socialistic steps to the Nadir on the bottom 

where there is a very temporary  balance 
to the apex on the right where we need definite corrections   

or a return to better our  system

We continue on our economic swings


I pray for the inevitable love and kindness of our Christian God
