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.

Pledge of Allegiance - "under God" ... Thx Pidge F!


As many of you are aware, the Knights of Columbus submitted to congress that the words "Under God" should be added to our pledge of allegiance.  Both Houses of Congress passed the law and it was signed by President Eisenhower in 1954.  The information below was based on a poll taken by NBC on what percentage should keep the words in our pledge verses the percent who want it removed If you read this and agree that "under God” should be left in the pledge, then just forward it to others and you have voted for it to be left in. If you delete it and don't forward it you are voting NO to "under God."  Easy huh!      
 
 
Official versions     
(changes in    bold red italics   )
1892
"I pledge allegiance to my flag and the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
1892 to 1923
"I pledge allegiance to my flag and to         the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
1923 to 1924
"I pledge allegiance to the         flag of the United States      and to the republic for which it stands: one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
1924 to 1954
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America    ,   and to the republic for which it stands; one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all."
1954 to Present
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America , and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God    ,   indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
  
  

Shock to NBC     
 
 
This is not sent for discussion. If you agree, forward it...  If you don't, delete it.  I don't want to know one way or the other.  By my      forwarding it, you know how I feel.
   
  
  
Do you believe that the word God should stay in Pledge of Allegiance      ?        

There was a recent poll on this question.  It received the highest Number of responses that there had ever been received for one of like polls, and the Percentages were these:        

86% to keep    God in the Pledge of Allegiance and    14% against.        

That is a pretty 'commanding' public response.        

I was asked to send this on if I agreed      or  delete if I didn't.       

Now it is your turn.   It is said that 86% of Americans believe the word God should stay.  Therefore, I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a mess about having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Why should our Nation cater to 14%?        

If you agree, pass this on.           if not, simply delete.
